Considering the commonly used creation site of an anastomosis as connecting the radial artery to the cephalic vein, a model is created to calculate the wall shear stresses across various components of the system. The model depicts a connection of the specified vein and artery bridged together allowing the increase in blood …
Predictive Capabilities Of Laminar-Turbulent Transition Models For Aerodynamics Applications, Jared Alexander Carnes
Predictive Capabilities Of Laminar-Turbulent Transition Models For Aerodynamics Applications, Jared Alexander Carnes
Doctoral Dissertations
Laminar-turbulent boundary-layer transition has a demonstrable impact on the performance of aerospace vehicles. The ability to accurately predict transition is integral to properly capturing relevant flow physics. Traditionally, computational fluid dynamics simulations are performed fully turbulent, meaning that laminar flow is neglected. This, however, can result in errant predictions of vehicle performance as quantities such as skin-friction drag may be overpredicted. Resultingly, development of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes transition models has seen significant attention over the last decades in order to model transition and realize the performance improvements of laminar flow.
In this work, the behaviors of several different transition-prediction methods are …
Analysis Of Turbulent Flow Behavior In Helicopter Rotor Hub Wakes, Forrest Mobley
Analysis Of Turbulent Flow Behavior In Helicopter Rotor Hub Wakes, Forrest Mobley
Masters Theses
The rotor hub is one of the most important features of all helicopters, as it provides the pilot a means for controlling the vehicle by changing the characteristics of the main and tail rotors. The hub also provides a structural foundation for the rotors and allows for the rotor blades to respond to aerodynamic forces while maintaining controllability and stability. Due to the inherent geometry and high rate of rotation, the rotor hub in its current form acts a large bluff body and is the primary source of parasite drag on the helicopter, despite its relatively small size. The rotor …

This normalization is shown to be closely related to the contemporary Chu energy normalization, expanding the range of validity of that normalization and clarifying the details of its interpretation. This relationship provides a basis for deriving other normalizations. Entropy …

The Effect Of Fuel Injector Spacing, Angle, And Blowing Ratio On The Fuel Air Mixing Performance Of A Scramjet Engine, Jonathan R. Copeland
Honors College Theses
In the operation of a Scramjet engine, which operates at hypersonic velocities, one of the most important factors is mixing the fuel and air before the high velocity air stream through the engine blows the mixture out of the engine before it could burn. Because of the importance of rapidly mixing fuel and air within a Scramjet engine, there are multiple design elements used to increase mixing. One of which is called a flame holder cavity, which is usually located behind fuel injectors, and designed with an open (length to depth ratio is less than 10) geometry to promote recirculation …

A Homegrown Dsmc-Pic Model For Electric Propulsion, Dominic Charles Lunde
Master's Theses
Powering spacecraft with electric propulsion is becoming more common, especially in CubeSat-class satellites. On account of the risk of spacecraft interactions, it is important to have robust analysis and modeling tools of electric propulsion engines, particularly of the plasma plume. The Navier-Stokes equations used in classic continuum computational fluid dynamics do not apply to the rarefied plasma, and therefore another method must be used to model the flow. A good solution is to use the DSMC method, which uses a combination of particle modeling and statistical methods for modeling the simulated molecules. A DSMC simulation known as SINATRA has been …
