    Numerical/Experimental Investigation of Semi-Spherical Bumps on Separation Control and Lift Enhancement

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Lotfikar, Mohammad Amin (Author) ; Javadi, Khodayar (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The main purpose of the current study is to control the boundary layer of the flow passing over the wing and the lift force enhancement. In this research has been tried to introduce a new generation of passive flow control and use bumpy surface structures to control the separated flow and increase the aerodynamic efficiency. Therefore, the wing with the hawk bird’s airfoil section has been designated. Then, assuming a viscous, incompressible flow and a low Reynolds number range (about 2 × 105), the flow formation and boundary layer development on this wing has been investigated. Subsequently, bump structures have been settled on the upper surface of this wing. The numerical simulations have... 

    Turbulence Equation-of-State Interaction Modeling in Large Eddy Simulation

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Ghayour, Amir Mohammad (Author) ; Salehi, Mohammad Mahdi (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    In most real combustion systems, flow is turbulent (e.g., diesel engines). Therefore, a reliable turbulence modeling approach is necessary to design and analyze a system with turbulent flow. Direct numerical simulation (DNS), Large eddy simulation (LES), and Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) are the three most mature Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for turbulent flow simulations. Because of LES’s good accuracy and acceptable computational cost. In this project, LES is chosen to simulate the turbulent flow field.Modeled turbulence subgrid scales' interaction with nonlinear flow parameters, needs modeling. In supercritical and transcritical conditions, Equation-of-state is a...
