Comparative Analysis Of Rng K-E And 'Standard' K-C Models For Fluid Flow Around A Cylinder, A Temu Jun 2001

Comparative Analysis Of Rng K-E And 'Standard' K-C Models For Fluid Flow Around A Cylinder, A Temu

Tanzania Journal of Engineering and Technology (TJET)

A two-dimensional computational scheme for simulating fluid flow around a cylinder was investigated. RNG (Re-NOrmalisation Group) and 'standard' turbulent closure models were used. simulation was implemented with assistance OfFLOW-3D computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code. The governing equation Of fluid motion, in Eulerian form, included body forces as well as surface forces. The computational model predictions for fluid velocity showed good agreement between the two models. Comparison Of the viscosities showed a large deviation from the two models, with RNG k-E model giving a better approximation. Comparison Of the velocity around the cylinder, as obtained from RNG k-c model, with approximation …


Diamondlike Carbon Thin Film Deposition Using A Rf Planar Coil Inductively Coupled Plasma System, Wai Soon Liew Jan 2001

Diamondlike Carbon Thin Film Deposition Using A Rf Planar Coil Inductively Coupled Plasma System, Wai Soon Liew

Student Works (2000-2009)

A RF planar coil inductively coupled plasma system (ICPs) is setup for this project. The system is powered by a 13.56MHz, 550W, 500 RF generator. The RF power is transferred to the plasma via a planar induction coil. The impedance matching circuit consists of an air-core step-down transformer and a tunable vacuum capacitor. The typical E-H mode transition which is distinctive to the ICP has been observed in argon plasma, hydrogen plasma and hydrogen-methane admixture plasma. The studies carried out include the observation of intensity of light emission from the plasma, the power transferred at different pressures, the concentration of …
