An advection velocity correction scheme for interface tracking using the level-set method
An advection velocity correction (AVC) scheme for interface tracking using the level-set method is presented in this thesis. The key idea is to apply a correction to the interface advection velocity at points adjacent ... -
Aeroacoustic Sources in Twin Turbulent Jets
An understanding of the aeroacoustics of twin turbulent jets is essential for applications involving noise reduction in dual engine aircrafts and launch vehicles. The aeroacoustic dynamics of these jets are influenced ... -
Explicit Filtering LES for turbulent premixed flames
Large eddy simulations of a premixed, turbulent, methane-air round jet flame at an equivalence ratio of 0.8 and unburnt gas temperature of 800 K are performed using Explicit Filtering LES (EFLES) method. The nominal inflow ... -
Hydrodynamic stability of shear flows : Jet in crossflow, particle laden planar and swirling jets
Jet in crossflow is a flow scenario that involves momentum exchange of a round jet injected into a crossflow. This flow configuration has industrial importance because of its application in gas turbine combustors which ... -
Passive control and intermittent dynamics of the precessing vortex core oscillation in swirl flows
Swirl is used in modern gas turbine combustor nozzles to achieve reliable flame stabilization and efficient fuel-air mixing. The swirl component in the nozzle jet flow induces an axial vortex. At high swirl intensities, ... -
Structural sensitivity of the precessing vortex core instability in swirled jets
This thesis performs an LES study of the flow through a swirling nozzle. The nozzle has one single stream with swirl being generated by vanes mounted on an axially aligned centrebody. The end face of the centrebody ...
