    Sammanfattning : Global market development, increasing environmental concerns and incessant risingfuel prices demand for high-grade efficient propulsion systems. This puts high pressureon the propeller designer to develop well-engineered and customized propellerdesign in a short timeframe. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Evaluation of a Variable Nozzle Turbine Turbocharger on a Diesel Engine under Steady and Transient Conditions

    Författare :Ralf Barkhage; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diesel engine; emissions; transient operation; control system; fuel economy; variable geometry turbocharging; engine performance; variable nozzle turbine; supercharging;

    Sammanfattning : The growing global call for reduced emissions and fuel consumption together with the market call for engines with higher power density and application-oriented torque curves can be met using turbochargers with variable geometry turbines (VGT). The second generation of VGT turbochargers is currently being developed and is starting to appear on the market. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Application and Development of the CEASIOM-SUMO-EDGE Suite for Rapid AeroData Assessment of Aircraft Flying Qualities

    Författare :Mengmeng Zhang; Arthur Rizzi; Jesper Oppelstrup; Trevor Birch; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : In aircraft design, methods for rapid aerodata assessment and data screening at early stages are instrumentalin reducing development cost and first-time-right processes. New efficient tools for the analysis can easethe transition as the traditional and rigidly structured sequential design process gives way to a concurrentmulti-disciplinary process with the compressed time-span required in the competition for market shares.

  5. 5. Numerical modeling of deforming bubble transport related to cavitating hydraulic turbines

    Författare :Daniel Lörstad; Institutionen för energivetenskaper; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gases; fluid dynamics; plasmas; Gaser; fluiddynamik; plasma; Energy research; Energiforskning; Direction Averaged Curvature DAC ; Direction Averaged Normal DAN ; Volume of Solid VOS ; Volume of Fluid VOF ; Lagrangian Particle Tracking LPT ; Large Eddy Simulation LES ; bubble; multiphase; turbulent flows; CFD; hydro-turbine;

    Sammanfattning : Cavitation is a problem in many hydroelectric power plants since it can cause adverse effects on performance and damage to nearby solid surfaces. The concerns of this thesis are the numerical aspects of flow simulations in cavitating hydraulic turbines which contain several difficulties: turbulent and complex flows, steady and moving parts of the geometry, bubble transport and cavitation development.
