  1. 1. Robust Numerical Wall Functions Implemented in OpenFOAM

    Författare :Jon-Anders Bäckar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; impinging jet; numerical wall function; Computational Fluid Dynamics; speed-up; OpenFOAM;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents two new numerical wall models for computing Reynolds-Averaged-Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with low-Reynolds-number turbulence models. Theobjective is to considerably reduce the total central processing unit (CPU) cost of thenumerical simulations of wall bounded flows while maintaining the accuracy of anylow-Reynolds-number turbulence model.

  3. 2. Modelling Techniques for Large-Eddy Simulation of Wall-Bounded Turbulent Flows

    Författare :Timofey Mukha; Mattias Liefvendahl; Hrvoje Jasak; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Wall modelling; Inflow generation; Large-eddy simulation; OpenFOAM; Computational fluid dynamics; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : Large-eddy simulation (LES) is a highly accurate turbulence modelling approach in which a wide range of spatial and temporal scales of the flow are resolved. However, LES becomes prohibitively computationally expensive when applied to wall-bounded flows at high Reynolds numbers, which are typical of many industrial applications. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Computational Modelling for Cavitation and Tip Vortex Flows

    Författare :Abolfazl Asnaghi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cavitation; SST k − ω; OpenFOAM; Propeller; LES; Numerical simulation; Cur- vature correction; Elliptical foil; Inception; Twisted Delft foil;

    Sammanfattning : Cavitation often brings negative effects, such as performance degradation, noise, vibration, and material damage, to marine propulsion systems, but for optimum performance, cavitation is almost inevitable. Therefore, it is necessary to better understand cavitation in order to maximize the performance without encounter- ing severe problems. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Mooring dynamics for wave energy applications

    Författare :Johannes Palm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hp adaptivity; Wave energy; Coupled simulations; CFD; Discontinuous Galerkin methods; OpenFOAM; Mooring dynamics; Snap loads; RANS;

    Sammanfattning : This work aims to increase the modelling accuracy of two important problems for the wave energy industry. One concerns the mooring dynamics in the presence of snap loads (shock waves in cable tension). The other is related to nonlinear effects in the resonance region of moored wave energy converters (WECs). LÄS MER

  7. 5. Extension of OpenFOAM Library for RANS Simulation of Premixed Turbulent Combustion

    Författare :Ehsan Yasari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TFC model. FSC model; Premixed turbulent combustion; Simulation; Modeling; OpenFOAM; Turbulent flow;

    Sammanfattning : Unsteady multi-dimensional numerical simulation of turbulent flames is a well recognized tool for research and development of future internal combustion engines capable for satisfying stringent requirements for ultra-low emission and highly efficient energy conversion. To attain success, such simulations need, in particular, well elaborated Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, as well as advanced predictive models of turbulent burning. LÄS MER
