The study of processes occurring in gas turbine combustor is an important part of engine design for achieving the required technical, operational, and environmental characteristics of the engine. During engine design process, both experimental and computational methods are used. The progress in numerical methods of modeling fourdimensional (space and time) physical phenomena and increasing of computation capacity allow application of complex computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for simulating such technical devices as the gas turbine combustor.

The following paper presents an overview of the Prometheus design system and its applications to gas turbine combustor design. Unlike a traditional “optimizer-centric” method, Prometheus aims to reduce both the level of workflow complexity and rework by taking a more “geometry-centric” approach to design optimization by shifting the control of script generation away from the optimization program to the computer aided design (CAD) package. Prometheus therefore enables significant geometry changes to be automatically reflected in all subsequent scripts necessary for the analysis of a combustor. Prometheus’ current capabilities include automatic fluid volume generation and aero-thermal and thermo-acoustic network generation as well as automatic mesh and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) script generation.

AbstractNumerical simulation using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method is one way of predicting airflow characteristics on the model. This method is widely used because it is relatively inexpensive and faster in getting desired results compared with performing direct testing. The correctness of a computational simulation output is highly dependent on the input and how it was processed. In this paper, simulation is done on Onera M6 Wing, to investigate the effect of a turbulence model’s application on the accuracy of the computational result. The choice of Onera M6 Wing as a simulation’s model is due to its extensive database of testing results from various wind tunnels in the world. Among Turbulence models used are Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, and SST.Keywords: CFD, fluent, Model, Turbulence, Onera M6, Spalart-Allmaras, K-Epsilon, K-Omega, SST.AbstraksSimulasi numerik dengan menggunakan metode Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) merupakan salah satu cara untuk memprediksi karakteristik suatu aliran udara yang terjadi pada model.

An approach for predicting the relative tendency for weak extinction among similar gas turbine premix combustors is presented. The method involves analyzing CFD (computational fluid dynamics) solutions so as to evaluate the recirculating masses in the primary zone and the resulting potential heating rate of incoming fresh mixture. Results are illustrated for two combustor geometries which look similar but have very different behaviour. The comparison between the combustors agrees with test data when the CFD model incorporates a simulation of the flame. The inadequacy of cold flow models for the purpose is shown.

Abstract In the development of industrial turbomachinery, the aerodynamic designer is faced with many complex fluid flow problems. In the mid to late 1980’s, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software was developed to assist in the solution of these flow fields. Initially applied only by high end gas turbine or jet engine designers, these sophisticated tools eventually found their way to engineers at industrial turbomachinery manufacturers. However, it has only been in the last five to ten years that industrial users have begun to make more widespread use of CFD. There are a variety of reasons for this slow adoption.

Modelling combustion in gas turbine combustors remains to be a challenge since several different physical phenomena interact in the process. One of the most important aspects of the combustion in a gas turbine combustor is the chemistry-turbulence interaction. In order to study the effect of the combustion and turbulence models, a dump combustor geometry is selected. Two combustion models namely, finite rate chemistry and flamelet based models, together with different turbulent models including LES 1eq k-model, RANS k-epsilon and k-omega models are implemented using both CFX and OpenFoam codes. The predicted temperature and velocity fields are compared to the existing experimental results. It is shown that different turbulence models behave very differently and there are large discrepancies between the experimental and predicted results. Some part of the discrepancies may be due to unknown heat losses through the combustor wall in the experiment.

Computational Analyses

Computational methods are the tool of choice for the study of physics phenomena in many fields of scientific endeavor. To guarantee the reliability of the results of computational analyses, it is crucial that mathematical models are validated and numerical methods are verified. A verified method is capable of correctly solving the problem equations, while a valid model is able to correctly describe the features of the problem (i.e. it uses the right equations). In this paper we: (i) verify and validate an open source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) framework for the solution of problems of interest in hemodynamics and (ii) provide a report on the methodology that we use, to make our experiences reproducible.
