3-D Numerical Simulation of Gas Turbine Combustor

This paper presents a numerical solution for a changing combustor geometry. The effects of the geometric change on the main parameters of the chamber are considered. For this purpose the original geometry and the new one are simulated numerically by a 3-D CFD code and the results are compared. Finally, comments are presented regarding this change. A model is used for turbulence modeling and a...

CFD Simulations of Pressure Drop in KATAPAK-S Structured Packing

KATAPAK-S is a type of structured catalytic packing, which is used in reactive distillation processes. The dry pressure drop characteristic (the pressure drop in the absence of liquid flow) is of significant importance for the investigation of process hydrodynamics. In this paper, the dry pressure drop within the catalyst packed channels of KATAPAK-S has been investigated using Computational Fl...

A-Type Heat Exchanger Simulation Using 2-D CFD for Airside Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop

A-Type heat exchangers are used to meet required heat load with minimum duct dimensions in air-conditioning applications. This greatly reduces the air-conditioning system footprint in residential and commercial applications. The angle and tube spacing of the A-type heat exchangers should be optimized for minimum duct size and maximum heat load. However, existing air side heat transfer and press...
