  1. 1. Decentralizing electricity generation in Cuba : Implementation of a microgrid in the sugar mil lCarlos Baliño

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

    Author : Aylin Berber; Cornelia Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Microgrid; renewable energy; bagasse; self-sufficiency; Microgrid; förnybar energi; bagass; självförsörjande;

    Abstract : Cuba has a long history of different dependencies and is a country facing many energy challenges, and therefore seeks to diversify its energy sources and reduce its reliance on fossil fuels. The purpose of this degree project is therefore to conceptualize a microgrid based on renewable energy sources for local energy sustainability at the lowest cost possible. READ MORE

  3. 2. Environmental Barrier Coatings to protect Ceramic Matrix Composites in next-generation jet engines

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Shivang Parmar; [2023]
    Keywords : Environmental barrier coating; ceramic matric composite; atmospheric plasma spray; suspension plasma spray; thermal cyclic fatigue; Barriärbeläggning; keramisk komposit; atmosfärisk plasmasprutning; suspensionsplasmasprutning; termisk cyklisk utmattning;

    Abstract : Gas turbine engine efficiency needs to be raised in order to decrease fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, and expenses. Efficiency may be improved in two ways: by reducing engine weight and raising intake temperatures. READ MORE

  4. 3. CFD investigation of a unit cell inside a Plate Heat Exchanger

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Mattias Ly; [2023]
    Keywords : Plate Heat Exchanger; CFD; Computational Fluid Dynamics; LES; Large Eddy Simulation; Periodic; Unit Cell; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A numerical investigation of the unit cell approach has been done to reduce the computational cost for CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) of plate heat exchangers (PHE) at Alfa Laval. The reduced cost would enable LES (Large Eddy Simulation) to be done which would give a more detailed and accurate insight into the flow and heat transfer processes of the PHE. READ MORE

  5. 4. Electrically Assisted Turbocharger: Modelling And Control Strategy

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Erik Vandor; Gabriel Ehlin; [2022]
    Keywords : EAT; VGT; VNT; Hybrid powertrain; electric turbocharger;

    Abstract : A major cause of CO2 emissions today is fossil fuel vehicles, and lowering these emissions is of key importance, resulting in increasing electrification and hybridisation nowadays. Turbochargers have been used for a long time to recycle exhaust gas heat losses to improve engine performance by compressing the intake air. READ MORE

  6. 5. Turbo For Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Adam Hansson; Mohammed Abu Al-Soud; [2022]
    Keywords : Turbo; Fuel Cell; Centrifugal Compressor; Radial Turbine; Axial Turbine; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Turbo systems have long been implemented into vehicles to increase the specific power. Increasing the pressure for conventional vehicles decreases the mass of the engine and increases the efficiency. Conventional vehicles do however produce carbon dioxide emissions which have become an increasing issue that needs a solution. READ MORE
