  1. 1. Experiments and simulations of gas flow through a NiCd battery

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

    Author : Sarah Petersson; [2023]
    Keywords : NiCd; battery; porous medium; experiment; CFD; NiCd; batteri; poröst medium; experiment; CFD;

    Abstract : This report describes the thesis work carried out regarding experiments and simulations of the gas flow through a NiCd battery. The objective of the work was to investigate how different geometries of the flip top vent on the battery and the level of porosity of the flame arresting disc impacted the amount of potassium carbonate created at the outlet of the vent.

  3. 2. Automated High-Temperature Pressure Sensor Verification and Characterization

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Algirdas Bartkevicius; [2023]
    Keywords : Pressure sensor; sensor verification; sensor characterization; piezoelectric sensor; dynamic pressure sensor;

    Abstract : Gas turbines are widely used in power generation. Monitoring pressure variations in the combustion chamber allows for real-time assessment of the turbines performance, and can be used to optimize combustion processes, leading to reduced emissions. READ MORE

  4. 3. Investigation of fuel and water injection in gas turbine combustion : Evaluate the methodologies available in Star CCM+ for modeling of water injection in simplified combustor using liquid and gas fuels

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Sanger Shinwari; [2023]
    Keywords : Diesel and Methane fuel combustion; FGM combustion model; Lagrangian multiphase modelling; Inert Stream; Water injection; STAR CCM ;

    Abstract : The negative impact of gas turbine emissions on the environment and human health is a growing concern. Recent studies suggest injecting water into the combustion process effectively reduces emissions and increases power output. However, this approach presents new challenges that need to be thoroughly investigated. READ MORE

  5. 4. A coupling method using CFD, radiative models and a surface model to simulate the micro-climate

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Joseph Vernier; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; Fluid Mechanics; Numerics; Micro-climate modeling; Radiation; Crop modeling; Photovoltaic panels;

    Abstract : The increasing demand for energy, depletion of fossil fuels, rising global warming, and greenhouse gas emissions have stimulated the need for widespread development and adoption of renewable energy sources (RES) worldwide. Among these sources, solar energy has emerged as a major contender to meet the growing demand. READ MORE

  6. 5. Experimental Study of Flow Fields in Moving Bed Biofilm Reactors

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Shea Nee Chew; [2023]
    Keywords : Moving bed biofilm reactors; Biofilm carriers; Mechanical mixing; Mixer configurations; Carrier mixing; Biofilmsreaktorer med rörlig bädd; Biofilmsbärare; Mekanisk blandning; Blandarkonfigurationer; Bärarblandning;

    Abstract : With the rise in global energy prices, as well as energy consumption being the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions, biofilm-based systems utilized for wastewater treatment, such as moving bed biofilm reactors (MBBRs), have grown in popularity for their lower energy consumption compared to conventional activated sludge processes. However, this technology requires large amounts of energy to constantly distribute and suspend its biofilm carrier within the reactor by either aerators or mechanical mixers. READ MORE
