  Project Work

  Fluid Solid Interaction (FSI) simulation of a spacecraft nozzle.In this project, the interaction between the fluid and structure was numerically simulatedfor a 2D convergent-divergent type rocket nozzle, with the purpose of understandingthe interaction behavior between the nozzle structure and the exhaustgases. Some of the things I learned while working for this project was: - How to model a 3D problem as a 2D problem using appropriate assumptions.- The theory behind shock waves and equations governing compressible fluid dynamics. - Numerically modelling the interaction between the fluid and structure. - Various pre-processing tools such as MATLAB for creating specific geometry profiles and GMSH for meshing.- Various post-processing tools such as Tecplot and Paraview. - Analysis of a multi-physics problem.

  Development of a Scaling Method to Avoid Re-Meshing in the Case of Geometrical Changes Within the Numerical Modelling of Continuous Casting Processes. To put it simply, my thesis task was to incorporate a certain type of boundary condition in the numerical modelling of a continuous casting process, in real-time. This boundary condition implied that there is a change in the geometry, and therefore the mesh of the model. Since the objective was to simulate the process in real-time, one cannot afford the extra time required for re-meshing and solver initialization. I wrote a method in the solver which emulates the effect of this boundary condition by scaling the solution field in such a way that there is no need to change the geometry and mesh of the model, thus, saving valuable re-meshing time. I learned a lot during my Master Thesis. Some of the things that I learned are : - Implementation of various numerical discretization schemes in a solver. Here's when I actually understood what I learned in CFD classes.- Of course, the numerical modelling of a continuous casting process. - Software development in a team. Importance of testing and validating your code, and providing intermediate solutions to your team in case of some delays. - Some project management tools such as Trello and Gantt Chart to visualize the progress and keep everything on schedule.
