• Aufbau eines Frameworks zur Berechnung der Eigenschaften beliebiger Kombinationen aus durchströmten radialen und axialen Ringspalten

  Development of a framework for the calculation of the characteristics of arbitrary combinations of radial and axial annular gaps

  Masterthesis, Bachelorthesis

  The dynamic behaviour of modern turbomachinery, such as those used in fuel pumps in the aerospace industry (for example in the Ariane 6 launch vehicle), is largely determined by the dynamic properties of combined axial and radial annular gaps. To date, however, such combined gaps have only been designed separately. For this reason, a framework is to be created at the FST on the basis of various preliminary works, which combines the existing tools at the institute for the calculation of purely axial and purely radial annular gaps into a single calculation tool for the investigation of any combined annular gaps.

• Investigation of annular gaps, operated in the transition regime between laminar and turbulent flow using DNS Simulations

  Untersuchung von Ringspalten, betrieben im Übergangsbereich zwischen laminarer und turbulenter Strömung, mittels DNS-Simulationen

  Masterthesis

  The dynamic behaviour of modern turbomachinery, such as fuel pumps used in the aerospace industry (e.g. in the Ariane 6 launch vehicle), is largely determined by the dynamic properties of annular gaps. The flow within these gaps is either laminar, transient or turbulent. While the characteristics of these gaps in the asymptotic cases (i.e. purely laminar or purely turbulent flow) are well understood, recent experimental studies reveal a severe lack of understanding of their characteristics within the transition regime. As detection of the flow regime during experiments relies solely on integral values, modern numerical methods such as DNS simulations must be employed to further investigate the observed phenomena, e.g. the decrease in fluid film stiffness.
