The wide range impeller.
Wojnar, Pavel ; Žák, Radim (referee) ; Haluza, Miloslav (advisor)
The aim of the thesis was to propose a pump impeller with higher effectiveness and verify the proposal with the calculation using programs Gambit and Fluent. Three designed impellers were afterwards made using 3D printer and its characteristics were measured in a hydraulic laboratory in Kaplan Department of hydraulic machines. The proposal of a so called wideband impeller of the centrifugal pump was made with chaotic ordering of blade cascades, in one impeller occur blades with various input and output angles and different shapes of blades but all blades have got similar shape in a meridian sectional view of impeller. The thesis was divided into three parts. In the first part, a conforming transformation was theoretically described which was in the thesis used for the shape proposal of impeller blades. In the second part of the thesis final proposals and calculations of pump impellers were made. The third part of the thesis focused on the processing and evaluation of experimental measurement in the hydraulic laboratory and finally the results of the thesis were summarized in the conclusion.

Design optimization of water-cooled thermocouple probe
Dohnal, Miloslav ; Vondál, Jiří (referee) ; Hájek, Jiří (advisor)
The object of this bachelor’s thesis is to create a computational model of an existing (basic) structure water-cooled thermocouple probe, to calculate and evaluate the quality of existing cooling probe and to propose possible design modifications to improve the cooling effect of the probe tip. Verify and evaluate design modifications by further calculation. The calculation will be carried out using computational fluid dynamics (CFD method). On the contrary, the aim of this work is not to create another text tool for students dealing with CFD topics. The first part describes the meaning and history of the CFD methods, then mentions the work on the principle of thermocouple probes and its application in practice. The second part of the work is devoted to problem solving. It describes the reason for the introduction of model situations when calculating the cooling effect of thermocouple probes and calculation indicates what type of flow occurs inside the thermocouple probe. It further describes the results of calculations for several approximations gradually increasing accuracy of the resulting solution of the problem and assessing the quality of cooling in the probe tip current (basic) structure. The final part deals with design changes for better cooling effect especially in the probe tip, which is verified by further calculation as well.

Methods and Tools for Modelling of Multi-Comodity Markets
Janeček, Vítězslav ; Janoušek, Vladimír (referee) ; Hrubý, Martin (advisor)
This study investigates Game theory including economic theories related to agricultural production. Model creation simulating economical system is built upon theoretic starting points. Commodity production is simulated using game theory with searching for Nash equilibria. Commodity demand function is grounded on concept of Cournot game. System includes land trading based on sealed-bid auctions with second-price. This model is using external Gambit software which is freeware library for game theory computations. Model evaluation is located in Experiments section where model structure and truthfulness is tested.

Using SolidWorks for model preparation in CFD
Švaňhal, Radek ; Klas, Roman (referee) ; Rudolf, Pavel (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis objective is to analyze utilization of program SolidWorks for preparing CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) models. First part describes the process of modelling a finite volume of a Francis turbine rotor. Also, the most useful functions and modelling procedures are presented. Second part analyzes pros and cons of using SolidWorks for CFD model preparation. In the last part the model is imported to pre-processor Gambit where meshing tools and procedures are introduced. In conclusion the thesis summarizes the main benefits of using a stand-alone specialized CAD software for CFD modelling.
