Abordagem analítica para vibrações transversais de vigas multi-segmentadas com seção transversal contínua / Analytical approach for transverse vibrations of multistep beams with continuous cross sectiox

Jacomini, Nelson January 2002 (has links)
Neste trabalho é proposta uma abordagem analítica para o cálculo modal de diversas configurações de vigas de Euler-Bernoulli com propriedades da seção transversal contínuas sujeitas a condições de contorno clássicas e não clássicas. A metodologia proposta está baseada em condições de normalização para as soluções da equação modal, originando uma fórmula modal associada com propriedades físicas e matemáticas da viga. Para o caso de vigas monossegmentadas não é requerido o uso do computador no cálculo dos modos. As formas modais dos diversos tipos de vigas consideradas podem ser expressas em termos das funções de Bessel, funções triangulares e funções hiperbólicas. Para fins de ilustração. é apresentado um caso de rigidez fiexural e massa linear do tipo polinomial de quarta ordem. / In this work, it is proposed an analytical approach for the modal determination of various configurations of Euler-Bernoulli bearns with continuous crosssection properties constrained with classical and non-classical boundary conditions. The proposed approach is based on normal conditions for the solutions of the modal equation, yielding a modal formula associated with mathematical and physical properties of the beam. For the mono-segmented case it is not required tbe use of computer for the modal determination. The modes of the various types of beam considered can be expressed in terms of Bessel, triangular and hyperbolic functions. For illustration, it is presented a case of fourth-order polynomial-type flexural stiffness and linear mass.

Thaís Maria Dalbelo 24 October 2014 (has links)
Neste trabalho estudamos superfícies com a propriedade que suas componentes irredutíveis são superfícies tóricas. Em particular, apresentamos uma fórmula para calcular a obstrução de Euler local destas superfícies. Como uma aplicação desta fórmula, calculamos a obstrução de Euler local para algumas famílias de superfícies determinantais. Além disso, definimos a característica de Euler evanescente de uma superfície tórica normal Xσ, damos uma fórmula para calcular tal invariante e relacionamos este número com a segunda multiplicidade polar de Xσ. Apresentamos também, uma fórmula para a obstrução de Euler de uma função f : Xσ → C e para o número de Brasselet de tal função. Como uma aplicação deste resultado, calculamos a obstrução de Euler de um tipo de polinômio definido em uma família de superfícies determinantais. / In this work we study surfaces with the property that their irreducible components are toric surfaces. In particular, we present a formula to compute the local Euler obstruction of such surfaces. As an application of this formula we compute the local Euler obstruction for some families of determinantal surfaces. Furthermore, we define the vanishing Euler characteristic of a normal toric surface Xσ, we give a formula to compute it, and we relate this number with the second polar multiplicity of Xσ. We also present a formula for the Euler obstruction of a function f : Xσ → C and for the Brasselet number of it. As an application of this result we compute the Euler obstruction of a type of polynomial on a family of determinantal surfaces.

Large eddy simulation of evaporating sprays in complex geometries using Eulerian and Lagrangian methods / Large Eddy Simulation von verdampfenden Sprays in komplexen Geometrien mit Euler und Lagrange Methoden

Jaegle, Félix 14 December 2009 (has links)
Dû aux efforts apportés à la réduction des émissions de NOx dans des chambres de combustion aéronautiques il y a une tendance récente vers des systèmes à combustion pauvre. Cela résulte dans l'apparition de nouveaux types d'injecteur qui sont caractérisés par une complexité géométrique accrue et par des nouvelles stratégies pour l'injection du carburant liquide, comme des systèmes multi-point. Les deux éléments créent des exigences supplémentaires pour des outils de simulation numériques. La simulation à grandes échelles (SGE ou LES en anglais) est aujourd’hui considérée comme la méthode la plus prometteuse pour capturer les phénomènes d'écoulement complexes qui apparaissent dans une telle application. Dans le présent travail, deux sujets principaux sont abordés : Le premier est le traitement de la paroi ce qui nécessite une modélisation qui reste délicate en SGE, en particulier dans des géométries complexes. Une nouvelle méthode d'implementation pour des lois de paroi est proposée. Une étude dans une géométrie réaliste démontre que la nouvelle formulation donne de meilleurs résultats comparé à l’implémentation classique. Ensuite, la capacité d'une approche SGE typique (utilisant des lois de paroi) de prédire la perte de charge dans une géométrie représentative est analysée et des sources d'erreur sont identifiés. Le deuxième sujet est la simulation du carburant liquide dans une chambre de combustion. Avec des méthodes Eulériennes et Lagrangiennes, deux approches sont disponibles pour cette tâche. La méthode Eulérienne considère un spray de gouttelettes comme un milieu continu pour lequel on peut écrire des équations de transport. Dans la formulation Lagrangienne, des gouttes individuelles sont suivies ce qui mène à des équations simples. D’autre part, sur le plan numérique, le grand nombre de gouttes à traiter peut s’avérer délicat. La comparaison des deux méthodes sous conditions identiques (solveur gazeux, modèles physiques) est un aspect central du présent travail. Les phénomènes les plus importants dans ce contexte sont l'évaporation ainsi que le problème d'injection d'un jet liquide dans un écoulement gazeux transverse ce qui correspond à une version simplifiée d’un système multi-point. Le cas d'application final est la configuration d’un seul injecteur aéronautique, monté dans un banc d'essai expérimental. Ceci permet d'appliquer de manière simultanée tous les développements préliminaires de ce travail. L'écoulement considéré est non-réactif mais à part cela il correspond au régime ralenti d'un moteur d'avion. Dû aux conditions préchauffées, le spray issu du système d'injection multi-point s'évapore dans la chambre. Cet écoulement est simulé utilisant les approches Eulériennes et Lagrangiennes et les résultats sont comparés aux données expérimentales. / Due to efforts to reduce NOx emissions of aeronautical combustors, there is a recent trend towards lean combustion technologies. This results in novel injector designs, which are characterized by increased geometrical complexity and new injection strategies for the liquid fuel, such as multipoint systems. Both elements create additional challenges for numerical simulation tools. Large-Eddy simulation (LES) is regarded as the most promising method to capture complex flow phenomena in such an application. In the present work, two main areas of interest are considered: The first is wall modeling, which remains a challenging field in LES, in particular for complex geometries. A new implementation method for wall functions that uses a no-slip condition at the wall is proposed. It is shown that in a realistic burner geometry the new formulation yields improved results compared to a classical implementation. Furthermore, the capability of a typical LES with wall models to predict the pressure drop in a representative geometry is assessed and sources of error are identified. The second topic is the simulation of liquid fuel in a combustor. With Eulerian and Lagrangian methods, two different approaches are available for this task. The Eulerian approach considers a droplet spray as a continuum for which transport equations can be formulated. In the Lagrangian formulation, individual droplets are tracked, which leads to a simple formulation but can be challenging in terms of numerics due to the large number of particles to be treated. The comparison of these methods under identical conditions (gaseous flow solver, physical models) is a central aspect of the present work. The most important phenomena that are studied in view of the final application are evaporation and the problem of transverse liquid jets in a gaseous crossflow as a simplified representation of a multipoint system. The final application case is the configuration of a single aeronautical injector mounted in an experimental test bench. It allows to simultaneously apply all preliminary developments. The flow considered is non-reactive but otherwise corresponds to a partial load regime in an aeroengine Due to the pre-heated conditions, the spray issued by the multi-point injection undergoes evaporation. This flow is simulated using Eulerian and Lagrangian methods and the results are compared to experimental data.

Etude de la structure des flammes diphasiques dans les brûleurs aéronautiques / Analysis of two-phase-flow flame structure in aeronautical burners

Hannebique, Grégory 09 April 2013 (has links)
La régulation des polluants a mené à la création de nouveaux systèmes de combustion. Le carburant étant stocké sous forme liquide, sa transformation jusqu’à sa combustion est complexe. La capacité de la Simulation aux grandes échelles à simuler des écoulements turbulents réactifs a été montrée sur des cas académiques comme sur des configurations industrielles, tout en prenant en compte les phénomènes multiphysiques intervenant dans ces configurations, mais les études sur la structure de flamme diphasique sont encore trop peu nombreuses. La présence de deux solveurs pour la simulation d’une phase liquide étant disponible dans le code AVBP, leur utilisation permet une comparaison et une compréhension des phénomènes en jeu combinant dispersion, évaporation, et combustion. La première partie de l’étude relate la validation du modèle d’injection FIM-UR. Ce modèle est capable de reconstruire les profils de vitesses et de granulométrie à l’injecteur sans avoir à simuler les phénomènes d’atomisation primaire et secondaire. Une validation en régime turbulent avait déjà été réalisée, et on propose ici de valider le modèle dans un cas laminaire. Des comparaisons entre simulations monodisperses et polydisperse et des expériences sont effectuées. La simulation monodisperse Lagrangienne donne une bonne structure globale mais la simulation polydisperse Lagrangienne permet de retrouver le comportement au centre du cône avec la présence des petites gouttes et à la périphérie du cône par la présence des grosses gouttes. De plus, des améliorations sont apportées au modèle pour le formalisme Eulérien et montrent de bons résultats. La partie suivante s’intéresse à caractériser un spray polydisperse par une distribution monodisperse. En effet, au cas où une approche polydisperse n’est pas possible, le choix du diamètre moyen à prendre pour une simulation monodisperse est délicat. On propose donc d’analyser le comportement d’un spray polydisperse en le comparant à ceux de sprays monodisperses. Deux configurations académiques sont choisies : des cas de Turbulence Homogène Isotrope chargée en particules pour étudier la dynamique, et des calculs d’évaporation 0D. Trois paramètres sont étudiés pour la dynamique : la concentration préférentielle (ou ségrégation), la traînée moyenne et la traînée réduite moyenne. Cette dernière et la ségrégation de la distribution polydisperse semblent affectées par les tailles de goutte les plus faibles, et la concentration préférentielle apparait alors comme la moyenne des ségrégations des classes qui la composent pondérées par l’inverse du nombre de Stokes associé à chacune de ces classes. La traînée moyenne de la simulation polydisperse possède un comportement proche des diamètres moyens D10 et D20. Ces analyses nous poussent donc à choisir le D10 pour caractériser la dynamique d’un spray polydisperse. Les calculs d’évaporation 0D ne permettent pas dans un premier temps de caractériser efficacement la masse évaporée d’un spray polydisperse par celle d’un spray monodisperse équivalent, mais la définition de nouveaux diamètres issus de la littérature des lits fluidisés comme le D50% le permet, ce qui le place autour du D32. On propose donc de caractériser l’évaporation d’un spray polydisperse par ce diamètre. Enfin, la dernière partie étudie la structure de flamme diphasique dans la chambre MERCATO, à l’aide du formalisme Lagrangien, monodisperse et polydisperse, mais aussi en utilisant le formalisme Eulérien. La validation du modèle FIM-UR du premier chapitre et ses améliorations sont utilisées pour représenter les conditions d’injection liquide. En plus d’un calcul polydisperse, deux simulations monodisperses Lagrangiennes sont réalisées en prenant les diamètres moyens D10 et D32, suite à la partie précédente. Des comparaisons qualitatives et des validations sont réalisées, en comparant des profils de vitesses gazeuses axiale et fluctuante et vitesse axiale liquide issus de l’expérience. / Regulations on pollutants have led to the creation of new combustion systems. Giving that fuel is stored in a liquid form, its evolution until combustion is complex. The ability of Large Eddy Simulation has been demonstrated on academic cases, as well as on industrial configurations, by taking into account the multi-physics phenomena, but there is a lack of studies about two-phase flow flame structures. Two solvers for the simulation of two-phase flows are available in the AVBP code, hence both simulations are performed to compare and increase understanding of the phenomena involved such as dispersion, evaporation and combustion. The first part of the study focuses on the validation of the FIM-UR injection model. This model is able to build velocity and droplet profiles at the injector, without simulating primary and secondary break up. A validation in a turbulent case has already been done, and this study validates the model in a laminar case. Comparisons between monodisperse and polydisperse simulations, and experiments are performed. The monodisperse Lagrangian simulation shows good results but the polydisperse simulation is able to represent profiles in the center of the cone by small droplets and at the peripheral part of the cone, by big ones. Moreover, improvements in the Eulerian model exhibit good results. The next section tries to evaluate the impact of polydispersion. Indeed, when a polydisperse approach is not available, choosing the mean diameter can be tricky. A comparison between the behavior of polydisperse spray and monodisperse sprays ones is realised. Two academic cases are studied: Homogeneous Isotropic Turbulence with particles to analyze the dynamics, and 0D evaporation cases. For the dynamics, preferential concentration, mean drag and reduced mean drag are studied. The latter and preferential concentration are affected by small droplets, and the preferential concentration of a polydisperse spray is equivalent to the average of preferential concentration of classes, extracted from the polydisperse distribution, weighted by the inverse of the Stokes number of each class. The mean drag behaves like the D10 and D20 mean drags. This analysis allows us to choose the D10 to characterize a polydisperse distribution for the dynamics. Zero-D evaporation simulations cannot characterize the polydisperse spray evaporated mass by the evaporated mass of monodisperses sprays. New definitions of diameters from fluidized bed literature enable the use of D50%, which is close to D32. We propose to use this diameter to characterize the evaporation of a polydisperse spray. Finally, the last section studies the structure of two-phase flames in the MERCATO bench, using the Lagrangian formalism, monodisperse and polydisperse but also using the Eulerian formalism. The validation of FIM-UR model and improvements from the first section are used to represent liquid injection conditions. A polydisperse simulation is realized and two monodisperse simulations are computed using mean diameters D10 and D32, thanks to the previous section. Qualitative comparisons and validations are realized, comparing gaseous velocity profiles and liquid velocity profiles. Good agreements are found and the mean diameter D32 seems to be close to the polydisperse spray. A comparison between mean flames is done with an Abel transform of the flame from the experiments. The flame has an "M shape", anchored by small recirculation zones out of the swirler, and by a point at the tip of the central recirculation zone. Then, the impact of droplet distributions is analyzed. Even if few bigger droplets from the polydisperse distribution are convected in the hot gases due to bigger particular time and evaporation time, two-phase flow flame structures are equivalent. Different combustion regimes appeared with premixed flames and pockets of fuel burning in the hot gases.

Simulation of the cavitating flow in a model oil hydraulic spool valve using different model approaches

Schümichen, Michel, Rüdiger, Frank, Fröhlich, Jochen, Weber, Jürgen 27 April 2016 (has links) (PDF)
The contribution compares results of Large Eddy Simulations of the cavitating flow in a model oil hydraulic spool valve using an Euler-Euler and a one-way coupled Euler- Lagrange model. The impact of the choice of the empirical constants in the Kunz cavitation model is demonstrated. Provided these are chosen appropriately the approach can yield reasonable agreement with the corresponding experiment. The one-way Euler-Lagrange model yields less agreement. It is demonstrated that this is due to the lack of realistic volumetric coupling, rarely accounted for in this type of method. First results of such an algorithm are presented featuring substantially more realism.
