The flow near the stability limit shows unstationary phenomena. The aim of the investigations is to calculate these phenomena using CFD and to compare the results with experimental data.

Supervisors: Maiken Günther, Daniel Nagel

Type: Numerical

This work aims to investigate the influence of the turbulence model used in numerical simulations on the performance prediction of the RadiVer testcase. Simulation setups will be provided.

Supervisors: Maximilian Steffens, Max Bartholet

Type: Numerical

Turbines for hydrogen fuel cell e-turbos are operated with humid air. For an accurate represantation of the working fluid (air+water vapor) and possible phase transitions, a numerical model is developed for the design of these machines.

Supervisor: Adem Tosun

Type: Numerical

A supersonic nozzle test stand operated with humid air is currently built at ITSM. To get a better understanding of the comparabilty of experimental and numerical results, a numerical study is planned. The goal of this study is to run and compare multiple simulations with different geometrical detailing complexity (2D, 3D, w/o test stand periphery,...)

Supervisor: Adem Tosun

Type: Numerical

Measurement equipment, wich is introduced in to the flow field, can have considerable impact on the local flow quantities. In order to investigate this effect, numerical simulations are conducted, including the measurement system on a radial turbine test case.

Supervisor: Adem Tosun

Type: Numerical

A screen mesh module is used to generate a correct flow profile in a channel of a test rig. Due to the size of the cells, this can not be directly simulated. In scope of the work the approach models will be investigated.

Supervisors: Anastasia Fomina, Manuel Maqueo

Type: Numerical

The scope of this work is to investigate the excitation behaviour of the RadiVer radial compressor test case. The work includes finite element and CFD simulations.

Supervisors: Maximilian Steffens, Max Bartholet
