Cfd Simulation of Drive Unit Cooling Helps to Improve Reliability
T he cooling performance of oil is critical to the functionality and durability of vehicle drive units, such as transmissions and differentials. Traditionally, automotive R&D teams evaluate cooling performance by building prototypes, installing them in a vehicle, and conducting tests in wind tunnels. The use of free-surface multiphase flow modeling with high-performance computing (HPC) has made...
متن کاملDucted Turbine Blade Optimization Using Numerical Simulation
This paper presents a combined blade element (BE), computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method for performance analysis and optimization of ducted turbines. The model is similar to standard blade element momentum theory, except that CFD replaces the momentum equation for determining the induction factors. This eliminates many assumptions used in applying the typical blade element momentum (BEM) t...
متن کاملCFD Simulation and Optimisation of a Low Energy Ventilation and Cooling System
Mechanical Heating Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) systems account for 60% of the total energy consumption of buildings. As a sector, buildings contributes about 40% of the total global energy demand. By using passive technology coupled with natural ventilation from wind towers, significant amounts of energy can be saved, reducing the emissions of greenhouse gases. In this study, the de...
متن کاملCfd Modelling of Buoyancy-driven Natural Ventilation Opposed by Wind
This paper presents CFD simulations of natural displacement ventilation airflows in which the buoyancy force produced by a heat source is opposed by a wind force. Cases investigated focus on windbuoyancy force relationships for which a two-layer stratification is maintained. CFD predictions of the position of the interface separating the two layers and the change in reduced gravity (temperature...
متن کاملExperimental Studies and Cfd Calculations for Buoyancy Driven Mixing Phenomena
Buoyancy driven flow is found in many engineering application such as the mixing of fluids with different densities. In nuclear reactor safety the mixing of borated and deborated water is a critical issue that needs investigation, assessment and prediction. As nuclear reactor geometries are complex, in this study a simple vertical mixing test facility (VeMix) was used to validate numerical mode...
