Thermomechanical Analysis of Exhaust Manifold and Catalyst for with Fluid Structure Interaction

Design of exhaust manifold is important due to its effects on performance of catalyst, thermal and thermo- mechanical loads. In this paper, first transient analysis of fluid was carried out with FLUENT software, then time-average temperature and heat transfer coefficient contour for three cycle were mapped on inner surface of exhaust manifold with MATLAB software for thermomechanical analysis. ...

Investigation on thermal behavior of common types of roofs in buildings using computational fluid dynamics method

In this study, the influence of type and structure of different roofing systems were investigated using computational fluid dynamic method. The considered roofing systems include beam and block types (clay brick, light weight concrete block, polystyrene) and Uboot slab which were designed for 6m and 8m span. To simulate the fluid flow and heat transfer, the computational fluid dynamic method wa...

Analysis of Transient Flow in the Case of Secondary Injection for Transient Vector Control (RESEARCH NOTE)

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the flow field structure in transient state and performance of secondary injection system for thrust vectoring in divergent section of a two-dimensional nozzle. Secondary injection for thrust vectoring in a two-dimensional nozzle is studied by solving three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged equations by means of fluent solver. Spalart-allmaras model was used ...

Numerical aeroelastic analysis of wind turbine NREL Phase VI Rotor

This study investigated the performance and aeroelastic characteristics of a wind turbine blade based on strongly coupled approach (two-way fluid structure interaction) to simulate the transient FSI[1] responses of HAWT[2]. Aerodynamic response was obtained by 3D CFD-URANS approach and structural response was obtained by 3D Finite element method. ...

Reliability Analysis of K-Out-Of N: G Machining Systems with Mixed Spares and Multiple Modes of Failure (TECHNICAL NOTE)

This paper deals with the transient analysis of K-out-of-N: G system consisting of Noperatingmachines. To improve system reliability, Y cold standby and S warm standbys spares areprovided to replace the failed machines. The machines are assumed to fail in multiple modes. At leastK-out-of-N machines for smooth functioning of the system. Reliability and mean time to failure areestablished in term...
