1. Numerical Simulation of Accidental Explosions in Offshore Production Plant
The production of oil and gas is an inherently hazardous task. Therefore it is crucial to provide reliable estimates of the risks involved. The major contributors to the risk level of an offshore installation, for example, arise from accidents involving explosion and fire. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) can be a powerful tool to help with the calculation

2. The "upwind" scheme to the conservation laws and their application in simulation of 2D and 3D incompressible laminar and turbulent flows with free surfaces / Um esquema "upwind" para leis de conservação e sua aplicação na simulação de escoamentos incompressíveis 2D e 3D laminares e turbulentos com superfícies livres
Althought the PDEs that model conservation laws and fluid dynamics problems are well established, their numerical solutions have presented a continuing challenge. In particular, there are two challenges associated with the computation and the understanding of these problems, namely, formation of shocks and turbulence. Both challenges can be attributed to the

3. Development and testing of high-resolution upwind schemes and their applications in incompressible free surface flows / Desenvolvimento e teste de esquemas "upwind" de alta resolução e suas aplicações em escoamentos incompressíveis com superfícies livres
Neste trabalho são apresentados os resultados do desenvolvimento e teste de esquemas upwind de alta resolução para o controle da difusão numérica em leis de conservação gerais e problemas em dinâmica dos fluidos. Em particular, são derivados dois novos esquemas: o ALUS (Adaptive Linear Upwind Scheme) e o TOPUS (Third-Order Polynomial Upwind Scheme).

4. INVESTIGAÇÃO NUMÉRICA DO ESCOAMENTO DENTRO E ACIMA DO DOSSEL DE FLORESTAS / NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF FLOW WITHIN AND ABOVE FOREST CANOPY
This work investigates different procedures in order to study the turbulent flow over the scale model of a forest region. Initially, the canopy flow was modeled by using source terms in the momentum, turbulent kinetic energy and its dissipation rate equations. After that, the forest canopy was considered a homogeneous porous medium. In the last step, the can

5. Advanced turbulence modelling for complex aerospace applications.
The objective of the present research work consists in studying complex aerodynamic flows about typical aerospace configuration, in which turbulence effects play a fundamental role. Such study is performed with an available computational tool that is being developed at CTA/IAE. This is a finite-volume code for unstructured 3-D meshes that solves the compress

6. Multidimensional modelling and calculation of combustion in porous media
In contrast with household heating systems based on open combustion flames, burners based on premixed combustion in inert porous media are characterized by higher thermal efficiency and high turndown ratio allied with compacity of the units. Moreover, porous burners, where a flame is anchored inside a porous matrix, are associated with low pollutants formati

7. Vortex method with turbulence sub-grid scale modelling
In this paper a method for the simulation of convection and diffusion of the vorticity, generated on a body surface is presented. A purely Lagrangian scheme is used for the vorticity convection, and thereby avoiding mesh associated problems. The body surface is simulated by straight-line panels, with constant-strength vortex distribution. The strength of the

8. Three-dimensional turbulent flow simulations over aerospace configurations.
The main objective of the present research work consists of studying turbulent flows over typical aerospace configurations. In order to accomplish such goal, a numerical tool to simulate 3-D compressible flows is validated and improved. A finite difference method for structured grids, written for general curvilinear coordinates, is used. A centred spatial di

9. Fluid dynamic modelling and simulation of circulating fluidized bed reactors: importance of the interface turbulence transfer
The main objective of this work is to analyze the importance of the gas-solid interface transfer of the kinetic energy of the turbulent motion on the accuracy of prediction of the fluid dynamic of Circulating Fluidized Bed (CFB) reactors. CFB reactors are used in a variety of industrial applications related to combustion, incineration and catalytic cracking.

10. Metodo dos volumes finitos aplicado a modelagem matematica e simulação computacional de um forno aquecido por jato de chama com escoamento em vortice
This thesis had the purpose of reaching a complementary k.nowledge of the intricate inter-relations between the complex phenomena of mass, momentum and energy transfers, which develop in furnaces with vortex flows, by mathematical modelling and computational simulation, in two and three-dimensional approaches. Furthermore, the effects of the bumer design and

11. TURBULENCE IN WALL REGION MODELING / ASPECTOS DA MODELAGEM DA TURBULÊNCIA NA REGIÃO DA PAREDE
This thesis presents the results of research work aiming at low Reynolds turbulence modeling. For an stablished boundary layer turbulent low Reynolds flow in the viscous layer near a wall was characterized based on experimental data and empirical polynomials. On this basis an analysis of the distribuition of the mean values in the near-wall region was perfor
