Aerothermodynamic modeling and simulation of gas turbines for transient operating conditions
Koçer, Gülru; Uzol, Oğuz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2008)
In this thesis, development of a generic transient aero-thermal gas turbine model is presented. A simulation code, gtSIM is developed based on an algorithm which is composed of a set of differential equations and a set of non-linear algebraic equations representing each gas turbine engine component. These equations are the governing equations which represents the aero-thermodynamic process of the each engine component and they are solved according to a specific solving sequence which is defined in the simul...
Aerothermodynamic design optimization in hypersonic flows
Eyi, Sinan (2013-09-16)
The objective of this study is to develop a reliable and efficient design tool that can be used in hypersonic flows. The flow analysis is based on the axisymmetric Euler and the finite rate chemical reaction equations. These coupled equations are solved by using Newton's method. The analytical and numerical methods are used to calculate Jacobian matrices. The effects of error in numerical Jacobians on the performance of flow and sensitivity analyses are studied. A gradient based numerical optimization is us...
Aeroelastic analysis of composite wings and wind turbine blades including geometrical nonlinearity and compressibilty
Farsadi, Touraj; Kayran, Altan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2018)
Aeroelastic behaviour of composite wings and wind turbine blades in the incompressible and compressible flow regimes is investigated utilizing a geometrically nonlinear Thin Wall Beam (TWB) theory incorporating non uniform geometric features such as sweep, taper, pretwist, warping inhibition and transverse shear strain. The structural equations of motion are obtained in the most general form based on the kinematic relations governing thin walled beams, including the nonlinear strain displacement relations, ...
Aerothermodynamic Design Optimization of Hypersonic Vehicles
Hanquist, Kyle M; Eyi, Sinan; Boyd, I D (2018-06-25)
The objective of this study is to develop a reliable and efficient design optimization method for hypersonic vehicles focused on aerothermodynamic environments. Considering the nature of hypersonic flight, a high-fidelity aerothermodynamic analysis code is used for the simulation of weakly ionized hypersonic flows in thermochemical nonequilibrium. A gradient-based method is implemented for optimization. Bezier or nonuniform rational basis spline curves are used to parametrize the geometry or the geometry ch...
