  1. 1. Analysis of the Base Wake on Passenger Vehicles

    Författare :Lennert Sterken; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pressure measurements; External aerodynamics; Wind tunnel; Wake; Local drag; CFD;

    Sammanfattning : Car manufacturers are presented by a continuous increase in fuel prices and by ever more strict legislations regarding CO2-emissions. Decreasing the driving resistance and hence the fuel consumption of their vehicles helps to improvetheir market share. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Birds in the Flow: Flight Mechanics, Wake Dynamics and Flight Performance

    Författare :Mikael Rosén; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Djurekologi; Animal ecology; Eleonora s falcon.; hunting; optimum wingspan; tail posture; wingbeat kinematics; wake topology; DPIV; flight performance; wake dynamics; flight mechanics; wind tunnel; Flight; bird;

    Sammanfattning : I share my fascination of bird flight with many others, and here I summarise my thesis on the subject. This thesis emphasises the mechanics of bird flight by focusing on flight mechanics, wake dynamics and flight performance. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Numerical computations of wind turbine wakes and wake interaction : Optimization and control

    Författare :Karl Nilsson; Dan Henningson; Stefan Ivanell; Martin O. L. Hansen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Actuator disc method; Actuator line method; Blade element momentum method; Wind turbine wake; Wake interaction; CFD; LES; EllipSys3D;

    Sammanfattning : In the present thesis the wake flow behind wind turbines is analyzed numerically using large-eddy simulations. The wind turbine rotors are modeled by using either the actuator disc method or the actuator line method in which the blades are represented by body forces computed with airfoil data. LÄS MER

  7. 5. The Axisymmetric Turbulent Wake

    Författare :Peter Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a theoretical and experimental study of the turbulent axisymmetric wake. In the theoretical part, an equilibrium similarity solution of the far wake was derived that was found to admit to two different solutions for this flow. LÄS MER
