  1. 1. Techno-economic analysis and simulation of low temperature district heating networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Ilia Iarkov; [2023]
    Keywords : Low-temperature district heating; Modelica; BTES; LCA; LCC; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The continuous increase in global energy consumption has led to a greater focus on the energy required for heating buildings. This thesis presents a techno-economic model for analysing low-temperature district heating networks coupled with a geothermal heat source. READ MORE

  3. 2. 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

  4. 3. Processing of ERT data from Stabilised Columns

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Mårten Petersson; [2023]
    Keywords : inversion; ERT; quality control; jet grouting; aarhusinv; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Modern construction sites are associated with high demands on suitable soil conditions, resulting in geotechnical challenges that can be solved using soil stabilisation techniques. The reliability of these techniques is tested using different quality assurance methods. READ MORE

  5. 4. Application of ERT for Quality Assurance in Jet Grouting Columns; A development of an alternative quality control

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Edvin Nilsagård; Rebecka Knutsson; [2022]
    Keywords : ert; jet grouting; quality control; pygimli; res2dinv; resistivity; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : With the increased urbanization major cities are facing, expansion of larger facilities and households are inevitable. Expansion means larger areas of the surface needs to be used where the risk of varying subsurface soil properties increases with larger surface areas. READ MORE

  6. 5. Microbial ecosystem analysis of biochar-enriched soil in Kenya using microfluidic soil models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Erik Karlsson; [2022]
    Keywords : Soil microbial ecosystem analysis; Microbe abundance; Microbe foraging; Biochar; Agriculture; Microfluidics; In-situ visualization; Kenya; SoilChip; Soil model; Minor Field Study; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Healthy soil is rich in diverse microbial life, and a healthy microbial ecosystem is crucial for any well-functioning agriculture. Soil microbes are essential for organic decomposition and nutrient recycling in the soil, which make nutrients available for agricultural crops. READ MORE
