Wall Modeled Large-Eddy Simulations in Rotating Systems for Applications to Turbine Blade Internal Cooling
Large-Eddy Simulations (LES or wall-resolved LES, WRLES) has been used extensively in capturing the physics of anisotropic turbulent flows. However, near wall turbulent scales in the inner layer in wall bounded flows makes it unfeasible for large Reynolds numbers due to grid requirements. This …

Detached Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Flow and Heat Transfer in Turbine Blade Internal Cooling Ducts
… study to apply and validate DES to predict the internal flow and heat transfer in non-canonical flows of industrial relevance. The prediction capabilities of DES in capturing the effects of Coriolis forces, which are induced by rotation, and centrifugal buoyancy forces, which are induced by …

Large Eddy Simulations of Flow and Heat Transfer in the Developing and 180° Bend Regions of Ribbed Gas Turbine Blade Internal Cooling Ducts with Rotation - Effect of Coriolis and Centrifugal Buoyancy Forces
Increasing the turbine inlet temperature of gas turbine engines significantly increases their power output and efficiency, but it also increases the likelihood of thermal failure. Internal passages with tiny ribs are typically cast into turbine blades to cool them, and the ability to accurately …

Optimization and Fabrication of Heat Exchangers for High-Density Power Control Unit Applications
… to increase significantly. However, the overall cooling system has remained unchanged and only the heat exchanger corresponding to the power control unit (PCU) has been improved. This has allowed the manufacturing costs to go down. Efforts are constantly being made to reduce the PCU size even …
