  1. 26. 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

  2. 27. Low head pumped hydro storage with contra-rotating pump-turbines

    Författare :Jonathan Fahlbeck; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy storage; Pumped hydro storage; CFD; Transients; Pump-turbine; Low head; OpenFOAM; Contra-rotating; Hydropower;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing share of electrical energy production by intermittent sources pushes the demand for energy storage. Pumped hydro storage (PHS) has a long history of providing a cost-efficient energy storage solution. However, for PHS to be a viable option, a large head is typically required. LÄS MER

  3. 28. Numerical simulation and analysis of multi-scale cavitating flows using a hybrid mixture-bubble model

    Författare :Ebrahim Ghahramani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Homogeneous mixture model; Lagrangian bubble model; CFD; Cavitation; OpenFOAM; Multiphase flow; Hybrid model; Multi-scale;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this research is to model and analyse multi-scale cavitating flows with a certain emphasis on small sub-grid vapour structures. Cavitating flows include vapour structures with different length scales, from micro-bubbles to large cavities. LÄS MER

  4. 29. Combustion characteristics of some alternative fuels in ICE: : a detailed numerical study

    Författare :Siyuan Hu; Strömningsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :Combustion; duel fuel; methane; hydrogen; nheptane; methanol; DNS; simulation; openFoam; mixture-averaged; RCCI; ignition wave;

    Sammanfattning : Two major fuels commonly used in compression ignition (CI) and spark ignition (SI) enginesare diesel and gasoline. The reserve of diesel and gasoline is limited, however the combustion ofthese fuels giving rise to air pollution. LÄS MER

  5. 30. Numerical Modelling of Fuel Injection and Stratified Turbulent Combustion in a Direct-Injection Spark-Ignition Engine Using an Open Source Code

    Författare :Chen Huang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; hollow-cone spray; KHRT; liquid penetration; CFD; OpenFOAM; Flame Speed Closure FSC ; ignition delay; SMD; gasoline surrogate; laminar flame speed; presumed PDF; Spray-Guided Gasoline Direct Injection engine; chemical mechanism; modelling; premixed stratified turbulent combustion;

    Sammanfattning : Stringent regulations on the emission of pollutants, especially carbon dioxide (CO2), necessitate the development of advanced combustion technologies. Gasoline direct injection (GDI) into the combustion chamber of a Spark Ignition (SI) engine is a combustion strategy that is widely recognized as having the potential to improve fuel efficiency of internal combustion engines for passenger cars.
