  1. 16. A Critical Study of Models in Turbulent Combustion

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

    Sammanfattning : Paper I-III focuse on the problem to validate models for premixed turbulent flames. The main result of paper I is the formulation of an analytical method for prediction of turbulent flame velocities from turbulent flame models. The method is motivated by a mathematical theory by Kolmogorov, Petrovskii and Piskunov (1937). LÄS MER

  3. 17. Direct Numerical Simulation of Boundary-layer Transition with Free-stream Turbulence

    Författare :Kristina Durovic; Dan Henningson; Ardeshir Hanifi; Philipp Schlatter; Tamer Zaki; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis considers the generation and influence of free-stream turbulence toboundary layer transition on both flat and curved bodies in the flow. Variousflow configurations such as flow around the flat plate with a sharp leading edgeand low-pressure turbine blades are considered. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Stability and transition on wind turbine blades

    Författare :Thales Coelho Leite Fava; Ardeshir Hanifi; Dan Henningson; Stefania Cherubini; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Boundary layer stability; free-stream turbulence; laminar-turbulent transition; low-frequency oscillations; rotation effects; wind turbine blades.; Gränsskiktsstabilitet; friströmsturbulens; laminär-turbulent omslag; lågfrekventa svängningar; rotationseffekter; vindkraftverksblad.; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Transition on wind turbine blades is a highly complex phenomenon due to the myriad effects influencing the process. This thesis studies some of them, namely free-stream turbulence (FST), rotation, and three-dimensionality. The investigations employ large eddy simulations (LES) with and without (implicit or wall-resolved LES) a subgrid-scale model. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Machine learning applications for predicting the pedestal in tokamak plasmas

    Författare :Andreas Gillgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Magnetic confinement fusion; Machine learning; Pedestal; Tokamak; Neural networks;

    Sammanfattning : Magnetic confinement fusion is a field of research that strives to develop an environmental friendly energy source to assist in powering our society. By confining a plasma with magnetic fields, conditions that enable nuclear fusion can be achieved. However, gaining a high efficiency has proven to be a challenging task. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Experimental design and vortex analyses in turbulent wake flows

    Författare :Bengt E. G. Fallenius; Jens H. M. Fransson; Henrik Alfredsson; Marianna Braza; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; bluff bodies; wake flow; experimental design; vortex detection; flow control; asymptotic suction boundary layer;

    Sammanfattning : A new experimental setup for studies on wake flow instability and its control that successfully has been designed and manufactured, is introduced and de- scribed. The main body is a dual-sided flat plate with an elliptic leading edge and a blunt trailing edge. LÄS MER
