16. Of Pipes and Bends
Sammanfattning : This work is concerned with the transition to turbulence of the flow in bent pipes, but it also includes an analysis of large-scale turbulent structures and their use for flow control.The flow in a toroidal pipe is selected as it represents the common asymptotic limit between spatially developing and helical pipes.

17. Shapes of pipes
Sammanfattning : Curved pipes are ubiquitous in several industrial applications and biological systems. The study of flows through these configurations is therefore of significant practical interest.In the present thesis, the modal stability of flows in both toroidal and spatially developing bent pipes is investigated to understand the onset of transition.

18. Experimental Studies of Turbulent Mixing in Impinging Jets
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the experimental study of mixing and flow characteristic in turbulent circular impinging jets without and with jet orifice manipulators (i.e. passive-fixed perturbations atthe nozzle exit), without and with swirl. LÄS MER
19. Laser-Based Investigations of Combustion Phenomena in Gas Turbine Related Burners
Sammanfattning : Experiments were performed on various combustion devices to investigate the flames employing different optical measurement techniques under atmospheric pressure conditions. Non-intrusive laser-based techniques provided in-situ information concerning different parameters of the combustion process, with a high degree of temporal and spatial resolution. LÄS MER
20. In-cylinder Flow Characterisation of Heavy Duty Diesel Engines Using Combustion Image Velocimetry
Sammanfattning : In-cylinder flow in diesel engines has a large impact on combustion and emission formation. In this work, the flow is characterised with a new measurement method called combustion image velocimetry (CIV). LÄS MER
