  1. 1. Improvement of anautomatic networkdrawing algorithm in thecontext of utility networks

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Hyacinthe Ménard; [2024]
    Keywords : District Heating Network; Mathematical Optimization; Python; Fjärrvärme; Optimeringslära; Python;

    Abstract : The European Union’s ambitious climate targets necessitate substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, particularly within the heating and cooling sector, which accounts for a significant portion of energy consumption. District Heating and Cooling (DHC) systems emerge as a key solution for decarbonizing this sector by enabling high efficiency heat production and the integration of renewable and carbon-neutral energy sources.

  3. 2. Reliability Assessment of Passive ICS in an SMR as part of the PSA Analysis

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Graeme Trundle; [2023]
    Keywords : Passive system reliability; Probabilistic safety assessment; Reliability Methods of Passive Systems; Natural circulation; TRACE; RiskSpectrum; Passiv systemtillförlitlighet; Probabilistisk säkerhetsbedömning; Reliability Methods of Passive Systems; Naturlig cirkulation; TRACE; RiskSpectrum;

    Abstract : Passive safety systems are increasingly being utilized in prospective nuclear power plant designs. Indeed, the use of safety systems driven by natural phenomena might be seen as an unmitigated virtue. READ MORE

  4. 3. Thermal-hydraulic safety analysis of the HTTU and GEMINI+ cores in TRACE

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Eva Joosten; [2022]
    Keywords : HTGR; TRACE; Thermal-Hydraulics; Safety; Heat Transfer; HTGR; TRACE; Termisk-Hydraulik; Säkerhet; Värmeöverföring;

    Abstract : With the coming of Generation IV systems, there is a need for thermal-hydraulic codes to model such advanced reactors. Codes for High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactors (HTGRs) already exist, but often suffer from insufficient validation and little user experience. READ MORE

  5. 4. Experimental pressure loss analysis in a mini tube for a fully developed turbulent airflow. : Mini channels of lengths 22.5 mm to 150 mm in length with a constant diameter of 1.5 mm

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Soumen Ghosh; [2022]
    Keywords : Experimental fluid mechanics; Pressure drop; friction factor; Internal flow; fully developed flow; turbulent flow; Fluid mechanics; Ideal gas; Moody s chart; Additive manufacturing; compressible flow; turbine blade cooling; mini channel;

    Abstract : The cooling systems in a gas turbine are especially important as the turbine blades and vanes are exposed to extreme temperatures. The relatively cool air is extracted from the compressors and fed to the turbines to cool the turbine blades. READ MORE

  6. 5. Energy systems and urban circularity: evaluating the performance of indicators for district heating and cooling systems according to the circular economy principles

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Joana Rebola; [2022]
    Keywords : sustainable development; district heating and cooling; circular economy; indicators; assessment;

    Abstract : The circular economy model has been proposed as a possible strategy for sustainable development in urban areas, implying that its core principles need to be cascaded down to various sectors, including the energy sector. District heating and cooling systems have great potential to enhance circularity on an urban level due to the establishment of synergies between different sectors, the incorporation of renewable energy sources and high efficiency.
