  1. 1. An overview of the development and potential of ceramic materials for use in micro gas turbines

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

    Author : Alexander Ahlqvist Fehr; [2023]
    Keywords : Gas Turbines; Ceramics; Micro Gas Turbines; Gas Turbiner; Keramik; Mikro Gas Turbines;

    Abstract : This paper presents an analysis of the potential of Micro Gas Turbines (MGT) with regards to performance, economic and durability considerations. The performance potential was assessed by calculating the cycle efficiency based on the Brayton cycle and the mechanical efficiency of the expansion turbine. READ MORE

  2. 2. Modeling of Precipitation by Structural Phase-Field Crystal Method

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap och tillämpad matematik (MTM)

    Author : Jacob Holmberg-Kasa; [2021]
    Keywords : strain-age cracking; SAC; structural phase-field crystal; XPFC; nickel-based alloys; precipitation;

    Abstract : Nickel-based alloys are used in components such gas turbines within the aerospace industry and electric power generation due to its high tensile, rapture and creep strength. Increasing the efficiency of gas turbines are crucial to reduce emissions within the aerospace industry and increasing power gain for electric power generation. READ MORE

  3. 3. Performance Investigation & Gas Exchange Assessment of Exhaust Piston–assisted Turbocharged Engine (EPTE) Concept : A simulation-based assessment

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

    Author : Nachiketh Lingachari Acharya; Saurav Dasgupta; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : There is an increasing stringency in the emission legislation within the transport industry along with ambitious performance demands from the customer side. These have pushed the vehicle manufacturers and relevant component suppliers to develop and integrate a wide portfolio of engine technologies. READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigation Of The Influence Of Geometrical Parameters On Heat Transfer In Matrix Cooling : A Computational Fluid Dynamics Approach

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Fabian Maletzke; [2021]
    Keywords : turbine; blade cooling; matrix cooling; latticework cooling; CFD; heat transfer; RANS;

    Abstract : Modern gas turbine blades and vanes are operated at temperatures above their material’s melting point. Active external and internal cooling are therefore necessary to reach acceptable lifetimes. One possible internal cooling method is called matrix cooling, where a matrix of intersecting cooling air channels is integrated into a blade or vane. READ MORE

  5. 5. LCA of Microgrid System: a Case Study at ‘North-five Islands’ of Changshan Archipelago, China

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

    Author : Jiang Yuning; [2019]
    Keywords : Microgrid system; Life cycle Assessment LCA ; Climate change impact; Greenhouse gas emissions GHG ; China;

    Abstract : Microgrid can provide stable, clean, and sustainable electricity supply for remote places since it can operate on renewable energy sources and work isolated from the utility grid. This thesis evaluates the life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of the microgrid system which is located at the ‘North-five Islands’ of Changshan archipelago in China. READ MORE
