    Computational Simulation of Turbulent Film Cooling, Using RANS/LES Hybrid Approach and Digital Filter Based Interface Boundary Conditions

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Sheikholeslam Noori, Mahdi (Author) ; Taeibi-Rahni, Mohammad (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Nowadays, hybrid LES/RANS approach is being widely used by many researchers. This approach uses the advantages of both LES and RANS approaches simultaneously. Hybrid approach is as accurate as LES, but its cost is much lower. The biggest problem of hybrid approach is transformation of data between RANS and LES regions. Before, precursor simulation and synthetic methods, such as Fourier series and synthetic eddy methods (SEM) have been used extensively to solve such problems. Precursor simulation is expensive, because of high cost of generation of data. On the other hand, Fourier series method is confined to simple geometries, while SEM has problem of programming. Interface condition in this... 

    Computational Simulation of Turbulent Endwall Effects in Gas Turbines, Using LES Approach

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ebrahimi, Hossein (Author) ; Tayyebi Rahni, Mohammad (Supervisor) ; Ramezanizadeh, Mahdi (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The most common three-dimensional flows accuring in axial turbomachineries are endwall flows. These flows, which depend on inner hub and on external surface of airfoils are called secondary flows. In modern turbines, these flows reduce turbine efficiency up to about 3 percent.Many sientists are interested in investigation such flows. In this study, turbulent endwall flows are modeled using large eddy simulation approach. Also, SIMPLE algoritm and Smagorinsky subgrid scale model are used. Non-orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system and structural grid are implemented.To verify the results, they were compared with some existing experimental data which, showed that current numerical results...
