Optimizing of a hydraulic part of a cooling system of a hot-air slide valve
Melecký, Josef ; Kárník, Jan (referee) ; Štigler, Jaroslav (advisor)
Master´s thesis deals with hydraulic optimisation of a hot blast gate valve. The valve must be cooled down, because of very high temperature that is exposed to. The existing cooling system is oversized and uneffective. This gave opportunity to create a brand new system, that would lower operating expenses. The first part of the thesis is dedicated to comparsion between both systems from the point of the total pressure loss. The second part of the thesis deals with hydraulic optimisation of the new system. Computations are modelled in CFD.

The pump station design for hydro-mixture transport
Béreš, Matej ; Štigler, Jaroslav (referee) ; Habán, Vladimír (advisor)
This master’s thesis is concerned about the flow of hydro-mixture in pipelines. In the first part, I am reviewing the characteristics of disperse systems, pumps and pipelines used in hydro-mixture transportation. Slurry pumps and polyethylene HDPE pipelines receive an extra attention. In the second part, I am working with data obtained from the co-operation with the PROGROUPE Sediment Removal company. These data were measured during revitalization of the water dam Gabčíkovo. In the next step, I use the data to suggest the required characteristic for the slurry pump for pump station in project of revitalizing Borovoe lake, situated in Kazakhstan.

The Fluid Flow Between Two Paralel Plates, the Comparison Between the Measruring and The Analytical Solution.
Kárník, Jan ; Hudec, Martin (referee) ; Štigler, Jaroslav (advisor)
This master's thesis is focused on measurement of the velocity profiles in liquids using ultrasound. The thesis describes two executed measurements both in the channel with free surface, both in the square shaped pipe. In the introductory part this work deals with clarifying the theoretical fundamentals associated with the measurement method UVP such as the Doppler effect, the speed of sound in the medium or the acoustic impedance of the environment. The next part describes the execution of the velocity profile measurement in the channel with free surface described and there is also the description of the results achieved during this measurement. In the last part the thesis deals with the measurement of the velocity profile in the square shaped pipe. There is also the comparison between the measured velocity profiles and the velocity profiles calculated using the analytical formula. In the conclusion there is the evaluation of achieved results.

Boundary Vorticity Element Method for 2D Fluid Flow
Fic, Miloslav ; Pochylý, František (referee) ; Štigler, Jaroslav (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with boundary vorticity element method for 2D fluid flow. The aim of this work is to program this method with continuous vorticity lay-out and to validate method with various boundary conditions. The computed results are presented in this work. Advantages and disadvantages of each one boundary condition are pointed out. New one boundary condition for boundary vorticity element method is applied in this thesis.

Seting of Working Point of co-Operated Centrifugal Pumps
Sůkal, Jaroslav ; Koutný, Luděk (referee) ; Štigler, Jaroslav (advisor)
The aim of my diploma thesis is to create a computer program that will help planners to design pipe systems. The program enables to find the parameters of a pumping unit (such as flow, head, power, efficiency, dissipation etc.) in a parallel pipe system which even has two tanks with dissimilar height. Moreover, the program is able to “calculate” the parameters of pumps that have maximum efficiency so that the planner could easily compare the data and determine whether the pump is working near the optimal point. The introduction includes a short overview of issues connected with pumping equipment. The next part deals with a description of software solutions of individual problems. The thesis concludes with a manual of the designed computer program.

Numerical Modelling of Counter Flow in T-Junction
Míčka, Martin ; Šperka, Oldřich (referee) ; Štigler, Jaroslav (advisor)
The main objective of this master thesis is to implement the numerical modelling of the confluence of streams in the Tee-junction using Fluent CFD software. Modelling is carried out for different ratios of flow rates in steady flow. Calculations are evaluated, using a new mathematical model, by curves of loss coefficients. Furthermore, the influence of the selected type of the mesh in geometry on results from numerical modelling of flow is examined. Geometry of the Tee-junction is created in Gambit software. Finally, the results obtained from numerical modelling are confronted with results from an experiment.

Optimizing of Simplyfeid Circular Distributional Pipe of the Vertical Pelton Turbine with 5 Nozzles.
Halabrin, Robin ; Himr, Daniel (referee) ; Štigler, Jaroslav (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with hydraulic optimization of distribution pipeline for 5 nozzle Pelton’s turbine by using CFD. The thesis is a follow-up to a previous diploma thesis which deals with the possibilities to simplify existing distribution pipeline. A few simplified versions of distribution pipelines were solved and the results show which way we should proceed towards the right solution. The simplified distribution pipeline arises from given parameters and retains the same procedure of evaluation to give us the opportunity of comparing achieved results. Two new geometries of distribution pipeline were created. They were then modified to achieve optimal distribution of discharge in each nozzle. Other criteria used for comparison were static pressure and Coriolis’ number in specific slices inside pipeline. Last but not least a simple economical analysis for selected version of distribution pipeline was carried out on the basis of which we can see the manufacturing costs of the pipeline.

Vortical structures with cavitating core
Švaňhal, Radek ; Štigler, Jaroslav (referee) ; Rudolf, Pavel (advisor)
The master's thesis focuses on vortical structures with cavitating core, which might develop in Francis turbines at non-optimal discharges in a form of unstable vortex cord. The cavitating vortex core is to be generated in a lab by flow rotation and a convergent nozzle. The objective of this thesis is to compare experimental results with mathematical model of pressure drop in vortical flow and with numerical calculation in Fluent based on finite volumes method. Other objective is to messure high frequency pressure vibrations generated by cavitating vortex core and spectrally analyze the data.

Integral sediment sampler
Zouhar, Josef ; Štigler, Jaroslav (referee) ; Rudolf, Pavel (advisor)
This thesis deals with analysis of flow inside integral SPM sampler. Flowing is described for one-phase flow and multi-phase flow (water-solid particles) approaches. Results of computational modeling and experimental modeling are compared. Experimental box was constructed and its construction is noticed. Methods of used computational and experimental modeling are described. Optimal computational model is recommended. The theme of this thesis was chosen in co-operation with Czech Geological Survey whitin the frame of project MŽP „SP/1b7/156/07“.
