Combette, Robin (author)As the urge to decarbonise the energy field becomes increasingly important, a growing interest is shown in wind turbine technologies. In particular, the past few years have seen the development of floating offshore wind turbines for applications in deep waters.<br/><br/>In addition to the harsher environment they are facing, these wind turbines...master thesis 2023

Lam, Sam (author)Wall-modeled large eddy simulations (WMLES) are becoming an increasingly viable tool to study complex unsteady turbulent flows. Conventional wall models applied in these simulations are however not applicable to laminar boundary layers. While these encompass only a tiny fraction of the total surface area, erroneous predictions in this region of...master thesis 2023

Dekeyser, Ruben (author)To meet global green energy targets, the bottom founded offshore wind industry is looking for ways to economically expand markets to deeper waters. A reduction of the hydrodynamic load is necessary to achieve this. One option is to perforate the monopile around the splash zone. Here the related work of Q. Star is continued through the...master thesis 2023

Mak, Ho Yi Lydia (author)In the atmospheric boundary layer, when surface heat flux is small and mean wind shear is strong, horizontal convective rolls that are elongated along the wind shear are formed. This study attempts to explain the asymmetry of rolls in terms of turbulence using large-eddy simulations. A pressure gradient in the north-south y direction is applied,...student report 2023

van Campenhout, O.W.G. (author), van Nesselrooij, M. (author), Lin, Y. (author), Casacuberta Puig, J. (author), van Oudheusden, B.W. (author), Hickel, S. (author)Although several previous studies have reported a potential drag-reducing effect of dimpled surfaces in turbulent boundary layers, there is a lack of replicability across experiments performed by different research groups. To contribute to the dialogue, we scrutinize one of the most studied dimple geometries reported in the literature, which...journal article 2023

Zamponi, R. (author), Satcunanathan, S. (author), Moreau, S. (author), Meinke, M. (author), Schröder, W. (author), Schram, C. (author)Integrating a porous material into the structure of an aerofoil constitutes a promising passive strategy for mitigating the noise from turbulence–body interactions that has been extensively explored in the past few decades. When a compact permeable body is considered in the aeroacoustic analogy derived by Curle to predict this noise source, a...journal article 2023

Bao, Hesheng (author), Han, Jinlin (author), Zhang, Yan (author), Di Matteo, Andrea (author), Roekaerts, D.J.E.M. (author), Van Oijen, Jeroen (author), Somers, Bart (author)In the current work, the Flamelet Generated Manifold (FGM) method is applied with large-eddy simulation (LES) to investigate the effect of methane on dual-fuel (DF) spray ignition. The diesel surrogate n-dodecane is injected as the so-called pilot fuel into selected lean methane–air mixtures, ranging from ϕ<sub>CH<sub>4</sub></sub>=0 to ϕ<sub...journal article 2023

Allaerts, D.J.N. (author), Quon, Eliot (author), Churchfield, Matt (author)Reproducing realistic date- and site-specific unsteady wind conditions in large-eddy simulations is becoming increasingly useful in wind energy. How to run a large-eddy simulation to match observed conditions, however, remains an open research question. One approach that has received considerable attention is mesoscale-to-microscale coupling,...journal article 2023

Bunk, Yannick (author)The development of a high-fidelity fluid-structure interaction tool for the simulation of aircraft flight dynamics in the subsonic flow regime is presented. The tool combines a high-fidelity large-eddy simulation code with an immersed boundary method, a multibody solver and a loose coupling scheme between fluid and solid. The development of the...master thesis 2022

Hu, F. (author), Helfer, K.C. (author), Siebesma, A.P. (author), Hanssen, R.F. (author)Atmospheric delay has a profound impact on synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry, inducing a spatial signal that significantly devaluates interferometric products. While the wide-scale variability of the atmosphere can be adequately modeled with global or regional weather models, it is especially the turbulent and convective part of the...journal article 2022

Cascioli, E. (author), Keijers, S. (author), Van Tichelen, K. (author), Vesper, J.E. (author), Kenjeres, S. (author)In the present work, we have applied a combined dynamic large-eddy simulation (LES) and direct numerical simulation (DNS) approach for a three-dimensional planar jet in a turbulent forced convection regime (Re = 18000) with a heated co-flow. Results from LES are compared with Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations and experimental...journal article 2022

Resolved large-scale energy transportation equation is mathematically derived for turbulent kinetic energy budget analysis. Firstly, statistical results of benchmark turbulent channel flow at Re...journal article 2022

Helfer, K.C. (author)Cumulus clouds ('fair-weather clouds') form as a result of atmospheric convection and have vertical extents between a few hundred metres (humilis species) and several kilometres (congestus species). They are a major source of uncertainty in the estimation of climate sensitivity by climate models. In order to reach more agreement in cloud changes...doctoral thesis 2021

Kokee, Louis (author)Computational Fluid Dynamics based on RANS models remain the standard but suffer from high errors in complex flows. In particular, turbulent kinetic energy is over-produced in high strain rate regions, such as the near wake of wind turbine flows. Data-driven turbulence modelling methods aim to derive novel turbulence models with lower...master thesis 2021

Penmathsa, Akhil (author)Flame flashback is a failure mode in the operation of lean premixed combustion system. Due to higher flame speeds and lower quenching distances, hydrogen-rich fuel mixtures are prone to boundary layer flashback (BLF), where mixture flow speeds are low compared to the local flow velocity. Research at TU Munich (Eichler 2011) has resulted in new...master thesis 2021

Helfer, K.C. (author), Nuijens, Louise (author)A growing body of literature investigates convective organization, but few studies to date have sought to investigate how wind shear plays a role in the spatial organization of shallow (trade-wind) convection. The present study hence investigates the morphology of precipitating marine cumulus convection using large-eddy-simulation experiments...journal article 2021

Vijay Dixit, V. (author), Nuijens, Louise (author), Helfer, K.C. (author)It is well known that subtropical shallow convection transports heat and water vapor upwards from the surface. It is less clear if it also transports horizontal momentum upwards to significantly affect the trade winds in which it is embedded. We utilize unique multiday large-eddy simulations run over the tropical Atlantic with ICON-LEM to...journal article 2021
