CFD simulation of fluid-induced vibration
Kubíček, Radek ; Vondál, Jiří (referee) ; Buzík, Jiří (advisor)
The presented diploma thesis focuses on flow-induced vibrations of a tube. The main aim and benefit is the analysis of tube stiffness in contact with the other one and the following use of obtained values and characteristics in CFD simulations. The work can be divided into three parts. The first part is about the current state of knowledge of flow-induced vibrations. It introduces the basic mechanisms of vibration and methods for their suppression. The second part deals with the determination of stiffness of defined geometry tube including the collision with the other tube. The final part demonstrates and evaluates the application of obtained characteristics in CFD simulations.

Flow Induced Vibration Fatigue Analysis of Tube Bundle
Buzík, Jiří ; Vincour, Dušan (referee) ; Lukavský, Jiří (referee) ; Vejvoda, Stanislav (advisor)
The aim of the dissertation thesis is the control of the tube bundle on the cyclic fatigue caused by the flow past tube bundle. Fatigue due to flow is caused by flow-induced vibrations. Examined vibrations are caused by the mutual interaction of two phases (solid and liquid). The present work is focused mainly on the interaction of tube bundles with fluid. The current level of knowledge in this field allows to predict mainly static respectively quazi-static loading. These predictions are based on methods of comparing key vibration variables such as frequencies, amplitudes or speeds (see TEMA [1]). In this way, it is possible to determine quickly and relatively precisely the occurrence of a vibrational phenomenon, but it is not possible to quantitatively assess the effect of these vibrations on the damage of to the tube beam and to predict its lifespan, which would require the determination of the temperature field and the distribution of forces from the fluid on the beam. The aim of the work is to evaluate the-state-of-the-art, to perform a numerical simulation of the flow of fluids in the area of shell side under the inlet nozzle. Current methods of numerical analyses very well solve this problem, but at the expense of computing time, devices and expensive licences. The benefit of this work is the use of user-defined function (UDF) as a method for simulating interaction with fluid and structure in ANSYS Fluent software. This work places great emphasis on using the current state of knowledge for verifying and validation. Verifying and validation of results include, for example, experimentally measured Reynolds and Strouhal numbers, the drag coefficients and for example magnitude of pressure coefficient around the tube. At the same time, it uses the finite element method as a tool for the stress-strain calculation of a key part on tube such as a pipe-tube joint. Another benefit of this work is the extension of the graphical design of heat exchanger according to Poddar and Polley by vibration damages control according to the method described in TEMA [1]. In this section, the author points out the enormous influence of flow velocity on both the tube side and the shell side for design of the heat exchanger to ensure faultless operation. As an etalon of damage, the author chose a heat exchanger designated 104 from the Heat Exchanger Tube Vibration Data Bank [3]. With this heat exchanger, vibrational damage has been proven to be due to cutting of the tubes over the baffles. The last part outlines the possibilities and limits of further work.

Flow Induced Vibration
Sázavský, Jakub ; Pochylý, František (referee) ; Habán, Vladimír (advisor)
When a fluid flows around a solid body, it interacts with each other. Flow-induced vibrations may occur. This is an undesirable phenomenon which is particularly dangerous due to the potential for resonance. Measurement of such induced vibrations is difficult. The aim of this paper is to design an expedient experiment, to evaluate the flow-excited vibrations and pulsations and to attempt to determine the uncertainties. Measurements are made in a special test section, the cavitation tunnel, on a hydraulic profile at different flow rates and rotation angles. The blade is measured by two laser vibrometers supplemented by a piezoelectric pressure gauge. The acquired data are processed using an own program in MATLAB software. The output is individual frequency spectra and summary graphs. The realized measurements are evaluated with orientation to the necessary signal processing to obtain relevant results.

Evaluation of Interferograms of Unsteady Subsonic Airflow Past a Fluttering Airfoil
Šidlof, P. ; Riss, Š. ; Vlček, Václav
The paper reports on time-resolved interferometric measurements of unsteady ow elds around a uttering NACA0015 airfoil. A mechanical model with two degrees of freedom (pitch and plunge) has been designed and tested in a high-speed subsonic wind tunnel. Aeroelastic instability of the classical utter and dynamic stall type has been observed in the Mach number range M = 0.2 - 0.5. The interferograms were recorded using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer and a high-speed camera. An in-house software IFGPro was developed for the postprocessing and evaluation of the interferogram sequences, yielding pressure distribution, lift and drag force on the airfoil.
