Ramdin, S.F. (author)The Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory is widely used for the design of wind turbine blades and predicting aerodynamic loads because of its ability to compute fast and reasonable results. However, the Prandtl tip loss factor is needed to improve the accuracy of the results near the tip. In this thesis the limitations and shortcomings of this...master thesis 2017

Druzdzel, P. (author)Since the problem of global warming has been broadly considered as vital and due to constantly rising oil prices, further fossil fuels exploitation requires diametrical changes immediately. The demand for environmentally friendly improvements does not only entail searching for new resources but also utilizing those which are available and more...master thesis 2017

de Jonge, R.L.A. (author)The department of Flight Performance and Propulsion at the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering has developed the Design and Engineering Engine (DEE) concept to supportMultidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO) of complex products. The goal of the DEE is to accelerate design, analysis and optimization by automating repetitive and non-creative...master thesis 2017

Zhang, Q. (author)During the launching vehicles design and their optimization process, the implementing of aerodynamic characteristics (AC) database is quite important. Accuracy of such database determines quality of the pre-flight simulation, trajectory and even the whole design direction. However, the database building process is one of the most challenging...master thesis 2017

Bagde, R. (author)The increasing globalwarming and climate change has boosted research on sustainable energy in the last few decades leading to a lot of research being carried out on wind energy. Wind turbines have played a major role in harvesting wind energy withHorizontal AxisWind Turbines (HAWTs) being the dominant design. However, for urban and offshore...master thesis 2017

Singh, B. (author)A medium fidelity tool has been developed for the computation of a wing's maximum lift coefficient in low speed while adhering to conceptual aircraft details. This tool is part of the Initiator which is a conceptual/preliminary aircraft design tool developed by the FPP group. The methodology comprises out of a synergy between empirical...master thesis 2017

Lignarolo, L. (author), Ragni, D. (author), Simao Ferreira, C.J. (author), Van Bussel, G.J.W. (author)The actuator disc (AD) model is commonly used to simplify the simulation of horizontal-axis wind-turbine aerodynamics. The limitations of this approach in reproducing the wake losses in wind farm simulations have been proven by a previous research. The present study is aimed at providing an experimental analysis of the near-wake turbulent flow...journal article 2016

Shajahan, T. (author)The use of detailed numerical simulations for practical applications or in the study of complex flow phenomenon is limited by the computational cost. Over the last two decades, reduced order models (ROMs) have become a viable alternative on account of their low computational cost. ROMs capture only the essential dynamics of interest rather than...master thesis 2016

Peeters, P.T. (author)Pipelines with multiphase flow of gas, oil, and water are commonly used in the oil and gas industry. In the presence of offshore platforms or vessels, the pipeline ends with a vertical riser. A possible new concept is to use a single large diameter pipeline along the sea floor that ends into multiple smaller diameter risers. This concept might...master thesis 2016

de Heij, B. (author)The field of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is constantly finding new ways to improve simulation results. One of the large challenges in CFD, is advection. Advection dominated flows are governed by hyperbolic equations, which pose severe stability issues. Stabilized methods usually add significant numerical diffusion, which alters the...master thesis 2016
