This thesis addresses the capabilities and challenges of automated design approaches, specifically for ap-plication in which a combination of heat transfer and flow is needed. The objective is to use automateddesign approaches from literature and to identify the bottlenecks.For this purpose, an industrial thermal-fluid airshower is designed,...

The graduation project was conducted at the CFD department of Nuclear Research And Consultancy Group (NRG) in Petten. The modeling and simulation of Taylor bubble flow using CFD can contribute significantly to the topic of nuclear reactor safety and in particular, in the emergency cooling of nuclear reactors during a loss of coolant accident, or...

Rivers are identified as main sources of plastic litter in oceans. About 65% of the plastic litter is buoyant in fresh waters, meaning it has the capability to float, making transport over rivers relatively easy. A better understanding of how plastic litter is transported via rivers is crucial. Both for quantification and mitigation of the...

Curved exhaust ducts are used in aero engine applications for different purposes, including thrust vectoring, shielding of parts from the exhaust or improving stealth properties. Their integration, however, regularly represents a design problem due to flow separation and high aerodynamic losses occurring in the bend. Curved duct flows for both...

Downstream of hydraulic structures, the flow is normally of turbulence. This will cause considerable erosions on the gravel bed. To prevent this, block mattress is preferable in many cases. Its effective stabilization and feasibility on construction make it commonly used against scouring problems, protecting underwater pipelines and cables. The...

3D CFD simulations, lab experiments and field measurements are used to get more understanding of the turbulent near field overflow dredging plume mixing. The focus has been on the most often used dredging vessel: a trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD). Near field overflow dredging plume mixing is important because it determines the far field...

Nabi, M. (author)
Alluvial open channel beds often exhibit statistically periodic irregularities, known as dunes. Dunes have considerable effects on sediment transport and flow resistance. When growing during a flood, the dunes create more resistance and flood levels may rise significantly. Accurate prediction of dune properties therefore contributes to effective...

Despite the fact that many studies on the stability of stones in bed protections under flowing water have been conducted, our knowledge is still far from advanced and reliable. Issues like how to quantify the hydraulic loads exerted on the stones on a bed and the associated stability of the stones are still central and most challenging in stone...

This paper addresses the method of manufactured solutions for RANS solvers, i.e. in the context of the calculation of incompressible turbulent flows with eddy-viscosity turbulence models. The difficulties caused by damping and/or blending functions included in the turbulence models are discussed. The need to manufacture the turbulence quantities...

Scientific enhancement of the analysis of thermal comfort aspects in aircraft cabins is the subject of the current investigation. For this purpose, three important processes are identified that play a significant role in thermal comfort, viz. the human response to its thermal environment which is also known as thermoregulation, the actual...

This paper presents an exercise of Code Verification with two manufactured solutions valid for 2D RANS equations supplemented either with the one-equation Spalart & Allmaras or with the two-equation BSL k-w turbulence model. When the manufactured solution is applied with the eddy viscosity frozen, second order convergence behaviour is shown....

In this work we investigate turbulent non-premixed combustion, including species concentrations and temperature, in a model of 3D cylindrical combustor. Gaseous propane (C3H8) and preheated air with temperature of 773K are injected through the combustor inlet. A Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique is applied to solve the governing equations of...

Boundary layer transition induced by high levels of free stream turbulence (FSl), so called bypass transition, can not be predicted with conventional stability calculations (e.g. the en-method). The use of turbulence models for transition prediction has shown some success for this type of flows, and the present study is a further investigation...

An overview is given on the background of different turbulence models that can be used to compute boundary layers in external aerodynamics, such as for aircraft. The overview includes algebraic models (Cebeci-Smith, Baldwin-Lomax), a half-equation model (Johnson-King), two-equation models ( K-E-K-), and a differential Reynolds-stress model. The...

The objective of the present work is to see whether the transport of sediment in a turbulent free surface flow can be studied with a new method of video image analysis, called the Two-Dimensional Particle Tracking Velocimetry. A slice of a two-dimensional turbulent flow in a laboratory flume is illuminated and particles are injected. After the...

This report deals with experimental research into the wind profile and turbulent current distribution measurements in a wind-water tunnel. Host attention was paid to the water velocity profile as influenced by the wind. It is confirmed that the velocity distribution of the current essentially follows the log law near the air-water interface as...
