  1. 1. Wall-Resolved and Wall-Modelled LES for a NACA4412 Wing Profile in OpenFOAM

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Författare :Nikolaos Charisoudis; [2024]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study is to perform computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulationfor an incompressible flow around an airfoil and investigate the aerodynamicproperties for different Reynolds numbers (400, 000 and 1, 000, 000) based on the chordlength, at the moderate angle of attack (AoA) of 5o . For this purpose a detailedevaluation of wall-resolved and wall-modelled large-eddy simulations (LES) wereconducted for the NACA4412 wing profile. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Aerodynamics simulations of Scania trucks using OpenFOAM

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Författare :Ziyi Liu; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Heavy-duty truck; Computational fluid dynamics; Air drag; OpenFOAM;

    Sammanfattning : In the field of heavy-duty vehicles, fuel efficiency and environmental protection are factors that need to be focused on, while the aerodynamic drag generated during vehicle travelling is one of the most influential aspects. This thesis delves into the aerodynamic simulation of Scania trucks using the open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool, OpenFOAM v2206. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Modeling of the trajectory of ice thrown from a wind turbine

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Författare :Elena Rocchi; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Ice thrown - Ice fall - RANS - LES - CFD - simulations - ballistic model; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : There is a growing number of wind turbines installed in cold temperature zones as a result of the restricted space for new construction. Due to ice deposition on the turbine blades, the increasing installation of wind turbines in freezing temperature areas presents many challenges: ice accumulation increases weight, unbalances the rotor, diminishes aerodynamic efficiency, and creates safety issues.
