This work aims to develop a FVM-based structural solver that can seamlessly be integrated with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solvers for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems. For flexibility in gridding and efficient computation, hexahedral multi-block grids are adopted which locally structured, but globally unstructured. Besides, ghost cells introduced solve the partial derivatives ...

As energy demand increases, it must be balanced with sufficient sources to support the growth of Indonesia's electrification ratio. No exception development and supply on Ambon, Maluku Islands. This study uses a Renewable Energy Power Plant, water turbine that ocean currents from flow path an artificial canal plan in The shape area is interesting things make as for different height at location....

Abstract Despite the wide possibilities of using a cycloidal rotor in form propulsion systems for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), propellers sea-going ships, rotors wind turbines or sea river energy converters, there is practically no research on use this solution fan (CRF) HVAC (heat, ventilation & air conditioning) applications. The main features such machine, compared to conventional sol...

A lift-driven vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) generates peak power when it is rotating at high tip-speed ratios (TSR), which time the blades encounter angles of attack (AOA) over a small range from zero to 30 degrees. However, its ability self-start dependent upon performance low TSRs, AOAs 180 novel vented aerofoil presented with intention improving VAWT TSRs without hampering TSRs. Computat...

An unsteady two-dimensional numerical investigation was performed on the viscous flow passing through a multi-blade cascade. A Cartesian finite-volume approach was employed and it was linked to Van-Leer's and Roe's flux splitting schemes to evaluate inviscid flux terms. To prevent the oscillatory behavior of numerical results and to increase the accuracy, Monotonic Upstream Scheme for Conservat...

In this paper, implementation of an extended form of a no-slip wall boundary condition is presented for the three-dimensional (3-D) lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for solving the incompressible fluid flows with complex geometries. The boundary condition is based on the off-lattice scheme with a polynomial interpolation which is used to reconstruct the curved or irregular wall boundary on the ne...
