Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs) are innovative, cost-effective, catalyzed chemical oxidation processes for treating pollutants in low or high concentration from contaminated soil, sludge and water. The common used AOPs in drinking water treatment include UV/H2O2 process, UV/Ozone Process, UV/Titanium Dioxide and Fenton’s Reagent. AOPs are...

Met als bijlage: A0 poster. In dit afstuderen wordt een onderzoek gedaan naar de invloeden van openingen dwars door een gebouw op de windbelasting. De informatie die uit de resultaten voortkomen dienen als hulpmiddel voor de bouwkundige ontwerpers. Wanneer bouwkundige ontwerpers informatie beschikken over de invloeden van gebouwvormen op de wind...

Hydraulic structures are present in the designs of different Room for the River projects in the Netherlands. Examples are longitudinal weirs, groins, summer dikes and weirs in the inlet of a side channel. Morphological simulations with Delft3D are frequently carried out to investigate the effect of such projects on for example hindrance for...

A numerical study, using the volume-of-fluid method, has been made of vertical (upward) core-annular flow: the flow of a high-viscosity liquid core surrounded by a low-viscosity liquid annular layer through a vertical pipe. The numerical results are compared against theoretical results from linear stability calculations and against experimental...

Dust liberation (a gas-solid two phase problem) is a highly complicated phenomenon to be studied due to great number of variables to be considered, so any related theoretical or numerical simulation is forced to implement many simplifications. Furthermore, there are numerous methods to study such a problem one of them is the newly introduced CFD...

Presently 10% of natural gas supplied to the Netherlands is used to maintain a stable climate and continuous electricity within horticultural greenhouses. As a result, technologies that reduce this energy consumption are in high demand. Theoretical models of heat flows in greenhouses can be used as a tool to increase the efficiency of these...

Solid Oxide Fuel Cells operate at high temperatures, which places stringent requirements on the ceramic materials in these devices. Optimizing the design by thermal stress minimization could increase the life expectancy of a fuel cell. In order to do this it is important to have a detailed understanding of the heat flows and temperature profiles...

One of the major problems associated with oil and gas production is the large volume of produced water. Operators around the world are facing significant costs with the treatment and disposal of produced water. Downhole separation, a relatively new technique, has been developed to reduce the costs of produced water and increase oil production....

The rudder-propeller, as the azimuthing thruster was originally called, can be rotated 360 degrees and is capable of delivering full propulsive power in any direction. The azimuthing thruster makes use of a mechanical transmission in order to deliver the power from the prime mover to the propeller. The good maneuverability and the absence of a...

The Technical University Delft has great ambitions for the future. Becoming a well-known university in the world is one of them. Therefore the TU Delft should reconsider the impression that they carry out of the TU Delft Campus. My site is located in the center of the campus, where the 80 -meter-high faculty of EWI (electronis, math and...

Measuring the temperature distribution inside the rotary kilns, using thermocouples for instance has proven to be difficult due to the harsh operating conditions of the kiln. Numerical modelling of turbulent combustion and the associated physical phenomenon thus proves to be an indispensable tool towards predicting the kiln operating conditions....

Fuel efficiency is an important factor for the shipping industry both regarding new build vessels and existing vessels. A method to reduce the fuel consumption of existing vessels operating in off design conditions is to trim a vessel in the most optimum trim condition. The current approach to determine the most efficient trim condition is to...

Vortex generators (VGs) are effectively used to improve the performance of the wind turbine blades by means of flow control. VGs can be represented by local geometrical disturbance on the aerodynamic surfaces. This disturbance generates vortices in the streamwise direction, energizing the boundary layer and hence delaying or suppressing the flow...

Royal IHC is exploring the possibilities of a subsea separation concept for its deep sea mining concept. The most promising concept from literature was the crossflow separator, this separation concept was further researched. This to have a look at the performance of such a crossflow separator and to find out what geometry is most suitable for...

In the offshore industry rock is used for different kind of applications, such as scour protection and pipeline protection. In deep water operations, but also increasingly in shallow water operations, use is made of the method by guiding the rock from the water surface to the seabed with a fallpipe. During a rock placement operation a current...

Erosion is a phenomenon present in several industrial processes. In dredging, the jetting of sand in drag heads erodes the sand bed. In construction of offshore infrastructure such as wind turbines, oil and gas production units, marine pipelines, erosion of material near the foundations can put the stability of structures at stake. Furthermore,...

In this work the residual-based variational multiscale method is presented in a discontinuous Galerkin framework. This so-called ‘DG-RVMS’ strategy is developed, extensively verified, and tested on a more complex case.<br/><br/>The proposed DG-RVMS paradigm consists of three principle components. First, the perelement weak form is coupled by...

This study was aimed at improving the accuracy of the model predictions for the minimum fluid and inner wall temperatures for cold, low-pressure start-up of wells that produce oil or gas. Due to the large pressure drop over the well head choke, the so-called Joule-Thomson cooling will give a very low temperature of the<br/>expanding gas jet. Low...
