| Abstract | For a turbocharger working under internal combustion engine operating conditions, the flow will be highly pulsatile and the efficiency of the radial turbine will vary during the engine cycle. In addition to effects of the inflow unsteadiness, there is also always a substantial unsteady secondary flow component at the inlet to the turbine depending on the geometry upstream. These secondary motions may consist of swirl, Dean vortices and other cross-sectional velocity components formed in the exhaust manifold. The strength and the direction of the vortices vary in time depending on the unsteady flow in the engine exhaust manifold, the engine speed and the geometry of the manifold itself. The turbulence intensity may also vary during the engine cycle leading to a partially developed turbulent flow field. The effect of the different perturbations on the performance of a radial nozzle-less turbine is assessed and quantified by using Large Eddy Simulations. The turbine wheel is handled using a sliding mesh technique, whereby the turbine wheel, with its grid is rotating, while the turbine house and its grid are kept stationary. The turbine performance has been compared for several inflow conditions. The results show that an inflow-condition without any perturbations gives the highest shaft power output, while a turbulent flow with a strongly swirling motion at the inlet results in the lowest power output. An unexpected result is that a turbulent inflow yields a lower shaft power than a turbulent inflow with a secondary flow formed by a pair of Dean vortices. The flow field for the different cases is investigated to give a better insight into the unsteady flow field and the effects from the different inlet conditions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
