Ranque–Hilsch vortex tube:
spot cooling device with no moving parts
The vortex tube, also known as the Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube, is a
mechanical device that separates a compressed gas into hot and cold
streams. It has no moving parts. Vortex tubes have lower efficiency
than traditional air conditioning equipment. They are commonly used
for inexpensive spot cooling, when compressed air is available.

Pipeline start up of crude oil transport
• Oil produced from offshore production platforms can be
transported to the mainland either by oil-tanker. When a tanker is
chosen to transport the oil, it is necessary to accumulate oil in
some form of storage tank such that the oil tanker is not
continuously occupied during oil production, and is only needed
once sufficient oil has been produced to fill the tanker.

Pipeline start up
• Initial time: the pipeline is full of oil at 4oC.
• One has to specify a pump to work with high pressure at low flow
rates at the initial time.
• But at steady state the flow rate is high and the pressure is low!
May be OK for Steady State
...but not able to reach it
Pipeline start up
• Use CFD to study the pipeline start up and estimate:
• The inlet pressure x time for a range of constant flow rates
• The heat transfer rate for a range of constant flow rates
• Consider a fixed pressure at the inlet
• Determine the inlet volume flow rate with time
• Determine how long it takes to get steady state
Flow in a diffuser for water turbine
• The use of diffusers around of the horizontal-axis water turbines have
been widely studied, since the diffuser causes an improvement in the
power coefficient of a turbine and are often called Diffuser
Augmented Wind Turbines (DAWT’s).

Deslocamento de ar em túneis devido a
passagem de trem.
• A passagem do trem em túneis causa um deslocamento de ar que
pode causar um aumento de pressão e arrasto, desconforto para
passageiros (trens alta velocidade) e constituir um dos principais
mecanismos de renovação de ar em linhas metroviarias
(subterrâneas).
• Este tema deverá ser
abordado como uma
continuação do trabalho

Flow Past Cylinders: Vortex Shedding
• Flow over cylindrical bodies shed periodic vortices which change
the drag and lift forces. The fluid-cylinder interaction is relevant to
mechanical design of structures (Tacoma mov) and mixing applied
to chemical reactors, combustion and in heat transfer equipments.

Pulsatile flow in pipes: Um(t) = Um(1+ γ cosωt)
• The pulsatile flows occurs in several applications, such as
compressors, I.C. engines, turbo-machineries, biological systems
(breathing and blood pumping) among others.
• The fully developed periodic pipe flow in which the flow rate is
forced to vary sinusoidally with time around a mean value may
change the steady state friction factor.
Strouhal number Str =ωD/Um,
Reynolds number Re =UmD/ 
ftrans = transient friction

Friction factor in pulsatile pipe flow
• Pulsating flows appear in various areas of engineering and natural
sciences. They not only play an important role in the operations of IC
engines, pumps, nuclear power systems, etc., but are also of immense
interest for better understanding of human breathing or blood flow
through arteries and hence, have received considerable attention
over the years.

VACUUM EJECTOR
PUMP
WATCH YOU TUBE MOVIE
A steam ejector is a type of pump that uses the Venturi effect of a convergingdiverging nozzle to convert the pressure energy of a motive fluid to velocity energy
which creates a low pressure zone that draws in and entrains a suction fluid. After
passing through the throat of the injector, the mixed fluid expands and the velocity is
reduced which results in recompressing the mixed fluids by converting velocity
energy back into pressure energy. The motive fluid may be a liquid, steam or any
other gas. The entrained suction fluid may be a gas, a liquid, a slurry, or a dust-laden
gas stream. (from wikipedia)

THEMES NO LONGER AVAILIABLE
THESE ARE PROJECTS’ THEMES ALREADY DONE BY
PREVIOUS YEAR STUDENTS OR IN I.C. AND OR T.G.
Wave Propagation in an Explosion
• Fundamental study in compressible flow. Interesting to investigate
the wall interaction. Also in compressible flow there are the following
topics: shock tube and axi-symmetric flow nozzle. (Stadke)
Thermal conduction in composite materials
COMMONLY USED POLYMER materials such as polyethylene (PE),
polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polyamide are good
electrical and thermal insulators. Recent applications of polymers as
heat sinks in electronic packaging require new composites with
relatively high thermal conductivity. Improved thermal conductivity in
polymers may be achieved either by molecular orientation or by the
addition of conductive fillers.
Supersonic Nozzle
The purpose of this project is to
simulate the operation of a
converging-diverging nozzle, perhaps
the most important and basic piece
of engineering hardware associated
with propulsion and the high speed
flow of gases. This device was
invented by Carl de Laval toward the
end of the l9th century and is thus
often referred to as the 'de Laval'
nozzle. This project explores the
compressible aerodynamics assessing
the flow through this type of nozzle
at a range of conditions.

Flow in the Wake of a Taylor Bubble
• Study of slug flow has application in oil production. The flow in the
wake is still poorly understood. The knowledge on the wake flow
allow the development of accurate pressure drop model. Objective:
model the wake flow numerically.
Design of a flush film height sensor
• Using a conduction heat transfer analog design a capacitive sensor
capable to measure liquid film height. The sensor consists of two
parallel strips of metal flush to the wall.
Coney – conductance probe
Ceccio – conductance probe
Turbulent Jet Impinging
• Turbulent jets impinging onto a rough surface are a simple and
effective means of promoting the heating or cooling of surfaces. In
fact, the number of applications an impinging jet encounters in
nature and technology is impressively high. The vertical take-off of
aircrafts, the cooling of electronic instruments and the tempering and
shaping of glass name only a few of numerous applications.
Drag Reduction in Cylinders
• Flow control is a technique that can be used to improve the
efficiency of moving objects by changing the airflow over the
boundary surface of the structure’s wall, or the free shear flow.
