1. Numerical investigation of the flow and instabilities at part-load and speed-no-load in an axial turbine
Sammanfattning : Global renewable energy requirements rapidly increase with the transition to a fossil-free society. As a result, intermittent energy resources, such as wind- and solar power, have become increasingly popular. However, their energy production varies over time, both in the short- and long term.

2. Investigation of Some Heat Transfer Surfaces for Gas Turbine Recuperators
Sammanfattning : A part of this thesis has been devoted to present general recuperator technology such as available gas turbine recuperator types, applications where recuperators are utilized, recuperator materials etc. An investigation of some compact and highly efficient heat transfer surfaces, for intended use in gas turbine recuperators, include the following surfaces: · Cross Wavy (CW) primary surface.

3. Parameterisation and flow design optimisation of hydraulic turbine draft tubes
Sammanfattning : In the present energy market, the demands of rehabilitation and modernisation of old constructions are increasing. Among the renewable energy resources, hydropower offers one of the highest potential for further improvements due to the fact that a great number of hydropower plants are ageing and that they are run at off-design conditions.

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

5. CFD driven optimization of hydraulic turbine draft tubes using surrogate models
Sammanfattning : The efficiency of a hydraulic reaction turbine is significantly affected by the performance of its draft tube. The shape and velocity distribution at the inlet are, in next turn, two main factors that affects the performance of the draft tube. LÄS MER
