Evaluation Of The Performance Of Various Turbulence Models For Accurate Numerical Simulation Of A 2d Slot Nozzle Ejector, Colin Graham
McKelvey School of Engineering Theses & Dissertations
With the development over the last several decades, accurate Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling has now become an essential part in the analysis and design of various industrial products where the fluid flow plays an important role. The goal of this thesis is to apply the CFD technology to the analysis of a 2D slot nozzle ejector which has application in Short Take-off and Landing (STOL) aircraft and other future aerospace vehicles. In the nozzle-ejector configuration, the high speed air flow from the nozzle entrains the ambient air into a mixing chamber (ejector) as a means to create additional thrust …
