Comparative Computational Analysis of Drag-reducing Devices for Tractor-trailers
Constant rise in fuel price in recent times has caused manufacturers of heavy commercial vehicles (HCV) to turn to efficient aerodynamic design of trucks, wagons, tractors as well as trailers. The comparative analysis in this study compares the coefficient of drag of the following four aerodynamic configurations of a tractor-trailer combination: 1. Semi-trailer with no devices. 2. Semi-trailer ...
متن کاملSimulation of turbulent flow around cylinders
Statistical flow modelling does not provide enough detail for many flows of engineering relevance in which unsteadiness is a central feature. This applies particularly to bluff-bodies and assemblies comprising bluff components for which the resolution of peak forces, unsteady loading, acoustics and fatigue are of interest as part of the design process. An example application which has been stud...
متن کاملNumerical simulation of turbulent flow around the dtmb4119 propeller in open water conditions
In this study, ANSYS-FLUENT packages are employed to simulate the turbulent flow around DTMB4119 propeller in open water conditions. In order to form a mesh, the multiple reference frame (MRF) methodology is used. The results are compared with the experimental results and a good conformity is obtained, which endorses numerical simulation. Furthermore, the turbulence model is used, which is sup...
متن کامل3D Numerical Simulation of the Separated Turbulent Shallow Flow around a Single Side Obstacle
In this paper, the performance of Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) simulations was evaluated to predict the flow structure developed by the presence of a sidewall obstruction in a uniform open-channel shallow flow. The study of these flow structures is important because they present in several real world configurations, such as groynes in rivers, where the erosion processes, mass transpor...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Scaling Effect on Bubble Dynamics in a Turbulent Flow around a Hydrofoil
A Lagrangian-Eulerian numerical scheme for the investigation of bubble motion in turbulent flow is developed. The flow is analyzed in the Eulerian reference frame while the bubble motion is simulated in the Lagrangian one. Finite volume scheme is used, and SIMPLEC algorithm is utilized for the pressure and velocity linkage. The Reynolds stresses are modeled by the RSTM model of Launder. Upwind ...
