  1. 1. Experimental design and vortex analyses in turbulent wake flows

    Författare :Bengt E. G. Fallenius; Jens H. M. Fransson; Henrik Alfredsson; Marianna Braza; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; 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

  3. 2. Analysis of Flow Structures in Wake Flows for Train Aerodynamics

    Författare :Tomas W. Muld; Dan Henningson; Gunilla Efraimsson; Shia-Hui Peng; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Train Aerodynamics; Slipstream; Wake Flow; Detached-EddySimulation; Proper Orthogonal Decomposition; Koopman Mode Decomposi-tion; Surface-mounted Cube; Aerodynamic Train Model; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik; Vehicle engineering; Farkostteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Train transportation is a vital part of the transportation system of today anddue to its safe and environmental friendly concept it will be even more impor-tant in the future. The speeds of trains have increased continuously and withhigher speeds the aerodynamic effects become even more important. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Towards Accurate Numerical Methods for Ship Flows on Composite Overlapping Grids

    Författare :Lars Carlsson; Chalmers University of Technology; []
    Nyckelord :boundary layer; wake; incompressible flow; Navier-Stokes; composite overlapping grids; grid generation; ship flow; parallel computing; alternating-direction implicit; line-implicit;

    Sammanfattning : Numerical methods are presented that are designed to make accurate ship-flow computations more feasible. One method concerns the automatic generation of high-quality computational grids. It treats the grids as competing individuals in a population, where an individual's fitness is based on a measure of grid quality. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Birds in the Flow: Flight Mechanics, Wake Dynamics and Flight Performance

    Författare :Mikael Rosén; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Djurekologi; Animal ecology; Eleonora s falcon.; hunting; optimum wingspan; tail posture; wingbeat kinematics; wake topology; DPIV; flight performance; wake dynamics; flight mechanics; wind tunnel; Flight; bird;

    Sammanfattning : I share my fascination of bird flight with many others, and here I summarise my thesis on the subject. This thesis emphasises the mechanics of bird flight by focusing on flight mechanics, wake dynamics and flight performance. LÄS MER

  7. 5. An experimental study on the wake behind a rectangular forebody with variable inlet conditions

    Författare :Renzo Trip; Jens Fransson; Olivier Cadot; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bluff bodies; wake flow; asymptotic suction boundary layer; flow control;

    Sammanfattning : The wake behind a rectangular forebody with variable inlet conditions is investigated. The perforated surface of the two-dimensional rectangular forebody, with a smooth leading edge and a blunt trailing edge, allows for boundary layer modification by means of wall suction. LÄS MER
