  1. 1. WEAR RESISTANT MULTI FUNCTIONAL POLYMER COATINGS

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Pranay Kumar Parsi; [2023]
    Keywords : Polymer coatings; Materials; Tribology; Wear resistant; Ice adhesion; Freezing delay; Anti-icing de-icing;

    Abstract : This study aims to develop coatings which show wear resistant behaviour along with multiple functions such as improved ice adhesion, better freezing delay etc which help in improving the effectiveness of the wind turbine efficiency. The significance of anti-icing/de-icing solutions for wind turbines is emphasized since ice accretion can cause serious issues in generation of power and might lead to damage of blades. READ MORE

  2. 2. Detection and removal of wind turbine ice : Method review and a CFD simulation test

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem

    Author : Ismael Bravo Jimenez; [2018]
    Keywords : renewable energy; wind turbine; ice accretion; flow simulation; CFD; wind turbine performance; anti-icing methods; de-icing methods.;

    Abstract : Nowadays, the energy sector is facing a huge demand that needs to be covered. Wind energy is one of the most promising energy resources as it is free from pollution, clean and probably will arise as one of the main energy sources to prevent global warming from happening. Almost 10% of the global energy demand is coming from renewable resources. READ MORE

  3. 3. A Comparison of Wind Power Production with Three Different De- and Anti-Icing Systems

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Sandra Kolar; [2015]
    Keywords : wind turbine; de-icing; anti-icing; ice; losses; vindkraftverk; avisning; is; förluster;

    Abstract : This thesis is done within the master program in energy systems engineering at Uppsala University and in cooperation with OX2. The aim was to compare the operation and performance of three different de- and anti-icing systems for wind turbines during the winter 2014/2015. READ MORE

  4. 4. Vägsaltets spridningsvägar och dess påverkan på landskapets vegetation

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Rebecka Lundh; [2015]
    Keywords : vägsalt; spridningsvägar; vegetation; miljö; saltstress; salttolerans;

    Abstract : Hundratusentals ton vägsalt, natriumklorid, sprids ut på våra vägar vintertid för att skapa säkra trafikförhållanden. Men vintervägunderhållning och vägsaltsanvändning kan bidra till förstöring av de naturliga och interna processerna i angränsande mark och vegetation. READ MORE

  5. 5. Economic Feasibility of Wind Turbine's Anti-Icing Systems Development and application of a simple heuristic method and tool

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Maria Klemm; [2014]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Wind energy projects in cold climate areas are more and more favoured due to the presence of high wind potential and the availability of land in those areas. A serious problem, however, is the impact of icing on the wind turbine and on the energy production. READ MORE
