  1. 1. Ultrasonic Assisted Drying and its Effect on 3D Printability of Minced Beef and Other Foods

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Viktor Lindström; [2020]
    Keywords : Drying; Convection drying; Ultrasound; Ultrasonic drying; 3D-Printing; 3D-Printability; Food; Meat; Beef; Food technology; Livsmedelsteknologi; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of this master thesis project was to investigate the impact on drying kinetics of ultrasound during air drying by a new ultrasonic transducer, on which a patent application has been filed by CSIRO. Convection drying using hot air is currently the conventional method of drying in the industry due to its simplicity and low cost. READ MORE

  3. 2. Geothermal Potential of Sub-Volcanic Intrusions in a Typical Caldera Setting

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Mineralogi, petrologi och tektonik

    Author : Einar Bessi Gestsson; [2018]
    Keywords : sub-volcanic intrusions; thermometry; numerical modeling; geothermal energy; magmaintrusioner; termometri; numerisk modell; geotermisk energi;

    Abstract : Sub-volcanic intrusions can form an extensive network of sills, dikes and other intrusion types that make up a plumbing system beneath volcanoes. Such intrusions are the heat source for high-temperature geothermal systems in volcanic areas and therefore, it is of great importance to study them in relation to geothermal exploration and production.

  4. 3. Transport of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes in Saturated Porous Media

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Luft-, vatten- och landskapslära

    Author : Bao Dixiao; [2012]
    Keywords : MWCNTs; solution chemistry; DLVO; straining; saturated porous media;

    Abstract : Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been one of the most studied nanoparticles and incorporated into various consumer products. It has been reported that CNTs can enter groundwater systems by accidental or intentional release into the subsurface. READ MORE

  5. 4. Process Parameters for Creation of Porous Stainless Steel Surfaces

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Eric Hultstein; [2011]
    Keywords : surface porosity; stainless steel; heat treatment; heat transfer; corrosion; oxidation; ytporositet; rostfritt stål; värmebehandling; värmetransport; korrosion; oxidation;

    Abstract : Detta examensarbete ämnar att undersöka värmebehandlingsmetoder för att skapaporösa austenitiska rostfria stål samt utvärdera ifall dessa ytor medför förbättringargentemot referensmaterialen. De porösa ytorna skapades genom en två-stegs metod. READ MORE

  6. 5. Controls of seafloor depth on hydrothermal vent temperatures : prediction, observation & 2D finite element modeling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Christine Andersen; [2010]
    Keywords : porous convection; compressible fluid flow; boiling; mixing; low heat supply; conductive heat flow; porös konvektion; kompressibelt flöde; kokning; blanding; lågtempererad värmekälla; konduktivt värmeflöde; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Circulation of hot hydrothermal fluids in fractures and faults of the oceanic crust is driven by temperature and pressure gradients. Fluid discharge is focused to vertical structures, black or white smoker chimneys on the seafloor. Hydrothermal vent temperatures should hypothetically be directly related to water depth. READ MORE
