  • Development of a tilt mechanism for a UAV drive train test bench

    2024/04/16

    Advanced Design Project (ADP)

    So-called Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are becoming increasingly important in aviation and can be used in various application scenarios, such as transport, surveillance or inspection. UAVs are typically controlled by several propellers driven by electric motors. To investigate the operating behavior of such an electric drive train, the FSR has a test bench with a wide range of measurement options.

    Masterthesis, Advanced Design Project (ADP)

    Background:

    At the Institute of Flight Systems and Automatic Control the execution of flight missions with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that require monitoring by ground personnel is beeing researched. A ground operator can either supervise a single UAV (1:1) or an entire fleet of UAVs (1:n). As part of the research, the interaction between the highly automated UAVs and the ground personnel is to be investigated, and tasks and requirements for the ground personnel are to be defined and evaluated in a suitable research environment.

  • Untersuchung der Dynamik von Tröpfchen auf vibrierenden superhydrophoben Oberflächen

    Investigation of the dynamics of droplets on vibrating superhydrophobic surfaces

    2024/03/04

    Masterthesis, Bachelorthesis, Advanced Design Project (ADP)

    Droplet oscillation on superhydrophobic surfaces has the potential to enable a controlled droplet movement in microfluidic lab-on-a-chip systems. Extensive research has already been carried out in this area. With a comprehensive literature review and subsequent application of previously derived equations to approximate the system, existing gaps are now to be closed.

  • Analyse eines bestehenden Simulationsaufbaus für die Tropfenverdampfung im Rahmen eines EU-Projekts

    Analysis of an existing simulation setup for droplet evaporation as part of an of an EU project

    2024/03/04

    Masterthesis, Bachelorthesis, Advanced Design Project (ADP)

    Supraparticles, which are created by the self-organised accumulation of nanoparticles, offer a wide range of potential applications due to their unique properties. One remarkable method is the generation of supraparticles on superhydrophobic surfaces by vapour deposition of droplets. This method allows precise control over the shape and arrangement of the resulting particle structures. In this study we will perform a parametric analysis of the current model for the evaporation of nanofluids. We will validate the results using experimental data from the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research as part of an EU project.

  • Analyse der Marangoni-Strömung in einem Flüssigkeitsfilm im Rahmen eines EU-Projekts

    Analysis of the Marangoni flow in a liquid film as part of an EU project

    2024/03/04

    Bachelorthesis, Advanced Design Project (ADP)

    Film evaporation is of great importance for both scientific research and industry. In this context, the Marangoni effect, which results from fluctuations in surface tension, plays a central role in shaping the behaviour of the liquid film during evaporation and significantly influences its dynamics and properties. Numerical simulations provide valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms that influence the evaporation process. The aim of this work is to change the operating parameters and observe the changes with the existing COMSOL setup.

    At the Additive Manufacturing Center at TU Darmstadt, the entire process chain of additive manufacturing is mapped using the example of laser beam melting, which means that the production process is highly variable. For quality assurance, a model is to be methodically designed in which the relevant data of the sub-processes can be recorded as uniformly as possible.

    Design Study for a Measurement Testing Wind Tunnel

    2023/11/15

    Advanced Design Project (ADP), Advanced Research Project (ARP)

    The challenging requirements of modern jet engines and gas turbines have led to complex, highly 3-d flow mechanisms that are even coupled with other disciplines (structure, thermal management). To gain an understanding and further improve modern jet engines and gas turbines, experimental investigations are mandatory. To account for the complex, highly 3-d flow mechanisms experimental investigations in the turbomachinery laboratory are continuously transforming to high-sophisticated measurement techniques. Therefore, the test facility of the GLR needs a wind tunnel that allows the testing and development of new, capable and highly- accurate measurement techniques. The concept development of a measurement testing wind tunnel within this ADP is the first step for the development of highly-sophisticated measurement techniques. Scope of this ADP is the design of the flow path, the probe traversing system, the experimental accessibility as well as the control mechanisms for operating point and data acquisition.

  • Numerische Auslegung eines Turbulenzgraderzeugers für Wasserstoffverbrennung

    Numerical Design of a Turbulence Generator for Hydrogen Combustion

    2023/11/15

    Masterthesis, Advanced Design Project (ADP)

    The reduction of climate-damaging greenhouse gases requires modern combustion concepts based on hydrogen combustion. The combustion of hydrogen implies novel turbine inlet conditions. The approval of novel engines with hydrogen combustion requires comprehensive experimental investigations of the impact of hydrogen combustion on the high-pressure turbine. For this reason, a variable turbulence generator for investigations within the Large Scale Turbine Rig will be designed at the GLR in cooperation with Rolls-Royce Deutschland. As a first step of the research project a turbulence generator that meets the required turbine inlet conditions has to be designed numerical. Within this MTh, a numerical setup has to be created, a parameter study to identify sensitivities on the turbine inlet conditions has to be conducted and a geometry for the turbulence generator has to be derived that fulfils all aerodynamic requirements.
