Investigation Of Turbulence Models Used In Automotive Industry

Tastan, Umur 01 September 2011 (has links) (PDF)
In this study / reliability and performance of turbulence models used in CFD softwares to determine the aerodynamics of passenger cars, are tested and compared. In the analyses, drag forces acting on the car, pressure and velocity distributions and wake flow patterns are determined by using several turbulence models with a commercial software Fluent. Calculated results compared to the experimental results given in the literature. It is observed that, turbulence models give relatively reliable results for determining aerodynamic properties of the model car. Among the turbulence models, RNG k-&epsilon / and standard k-&omega / models stand one step ahead of the other models according to results.

Studie příčného rychlostního pole v blízkosti rotujícího kola s uvažováním vlivu nucené konvekce kotoučové brzdy / Study of transverse velocity field in the vicinity of rotating wheel with assumption of forced convection of disc brake

Regner, Dominik January 2019 (has links)
The master thesis deals with the influence of a local change of temperature due to advection from disc brake to axial velocity field close to the rotating wheel of a car. The second goal is to set parameters applicable to various wheel discs and study of the influence of these parameters to aerodynamical properties of car and thermodynamical properties of the disc brake. The thesis is numerically executed in StarCCM+. The first part focuses on theoretical background about the numerical solution and current status of research. There are described disc parameters, geometry input and solver settings in the second part. The final part deals with a comparison of velocity fields for isothermal and thermodynamical model and evaluates the influence of parameters to velocity field, aerodynamical drag and thermodynamical performance of the brake.

Etude expérimentale de la dispersion de particules ultrafines dans le sillage de modèles simplifiés de véhicules automobiles / Experimental study of ultrafine particle dispersion in the wake of road vehicle models

Rodriguez, Romain 22 October 2018 (has links)
La pollution de l’air cause de près de 7 millions de décès annuels dans le monde. L’exposition aux Particules Ultrafines (PUF), polluants parmi les plus néfastes pour la santé, atteint ses niveaux les plus importants en milieu urbain, principalement dus au transport routier. Dans cette thèse, nous examinons les liens entre les champs de concentration en nombre des PUF émises à l'échappement dans le sillage de modèles simplifiés d'automobiles (corps d’Ahmed) et les propriétés de ces écoulements. Ces travaux permettent de mieux comprendre les niveaux d'exposition aux PUF auxquels sont soumis tous les usagers de la route à l’échelle du sillage du véhicule. Trois modèles simplifiés de véhicules ont été utilisés. Ils sont caractérisés par leur angle de lunette arrière permettant de reproduire en soufflerie les structures principales des écoulements de sillage automobile. A l’aide d’une méthode innovante de traitement des données, des mesures de vitesses acquises grâce à des techniques différentes (LDV/PIV) ont été analysées. Elles ont révélé que l’angle d’inclinaison de la lunette a un rôle déterminant sur la structure des écoulements de sillage. Par ailleurs, la comparaison avec les mesures des concentrations en nombre de PUF a permis de montrer que le volume de la structure torique de recirculation en proche culot, dépendant de la géométrie, a un impact majeur sur la dispersion des particules dans la direction verticale. Enfin, il est mis en évidence que les structures tourbillonnaires longitudinales existantes pour une inclinaison intermédiaire de la lunette ont un impact prépondérant sur la dispersion transversale ainsi que sur la symétrie des champs de concentration. / Around 7 million worldwide annual death sare due to air pollution. Among all pollutants, UltrafineParticles (UFP) cause strong adverse effects. Due to road transport, UFP exposure reaches its most significant levels in urban areas. In this thesis, the aim is to assess the links between the wake flow properties of simplified car models(Ahmed bodies) and UFP number concentration fields due to exhaust emission. This study enables the knowledge about UFP exposure levels of all road users at vehicle wake scale to be better understood. Three simplified car models with three corresponding rear slant angles have been used in order to reproduce the principal wake structures of road vehicles in a wind tunnel. Thanks to an innovative data processing method, velocity measurements with two techniques(LDV/PIV) point out the major role of the rear slantangle on the model wake structures. Moreover, comparisons have been made with particle number concentration measurements of UFP in the wake of the same models. We highlighted the link between the volume of the toric recirculation region close to the rear and the vertical dispersion of UFP. Furthermore, longitudinal vortices that exist with the intermediate rear slant angle geometry play an important role on the transversal dispersion as well as on the concentration field symetry.
