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

   Abstract : In the rapidly growing wind energy market, regions with cold climates are currently in the spotlight owing to their abundance of wind resources. However, the operation of wind turbines in cold climate conditions is challenged by serious icing problems. READ MORE

4. 3. Electrochemical Behavior of the High Entropy Oxide (Mg,Co,Ni,Zn)1-xLixO (x=0,35)

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

   Author : Rasmus Sandström Kinnane; [2022]
   Keywords : high entropy oxides; lithium-ion battery; x-ray diffraction; scanning electron microscopy; cyclic voltammetry;

   Abstract : Today's society is currently developing lithium-ion batteries to eventually replace the use of fossil fuels. High entropy oxides is a new type of material to use as an anode in the lithium-ion battery. These high entropy oxides may consist of a few different transition metals including lithium and oxygen.

5. 4. Material Characterization and Blade Impact Simulation

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

   Author : Gustaf Bodare; [2022]
   Keywords : Strain rate dependency; Split-Hopkinson pressure bar; Digital image correlation; LS-DYNA; FEM; SPG;

   Abstract : Blades used on brushcutters and lawn mowers are subjected to a wide variety of working conditions. Besides continuous loads from cutting grass, the blades are also subjected to accidental impacts of branches, stones and structures. READ MORE

6. 5. Structural temperatures of wind turbine blades under icing conditions

   University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

   Author : Elise Brouillette; [2021]
   Keywords : Aerodynamics; Anti-icing Systems; Glass transition temperature; Heat transfer; Wind turbines;

   Abstract : As clean energy demand is on the rise and the wind energy sector in growth, locations with the highest wind potential are becoming of higher interest for wind farm projects, but they are located in colder regions. In cold climates, ice accumulation on wind turbine blades is a serious issue, both in terms of safety and performance. READ MORE
