  1. 1. Temporary Halting of Wind Turbine Rotors toMitigate Effects on Birds

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskap

    Author : Ola Hedberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Bird; mitigation; effect; wind farm; turbine; wind power; halting; collision; risk; birds; power; generation;

    Abstract : This study assesses the viability of temporarily halting wind turbine operations as amitigation measure to protect bird populations during migration periods. Conducted in thenorthern Baltic, it examines the migration patterns, timings, and altitudes of various birdspecies, aiming to identify the most critical times for implementing turbine stoppages.

  2. 2. Prospects for standardisation of industrial PET plastics to support the transition towards a circular economy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

    Author : Agnes Ström; [2024]
    Keywords : Standard; standardisation; industrial PET; polyethylene terephthalate; circular economy; plastic; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Plastkonsumtionen har ökat markant över tid och har utvecklats till ett viktigt material i dagens samhälle, men med utmaningen att råvaran främst kommer från fossila källor. Användningen av plast är i linje med den linjära ekonomin och den så kallade slit-och-släng-kulturen, vilket bidrar till felaktig hantering av plastavfall och en ineffektiv användning av resurser.

  3. 3. Investigation of Roughness Effects on Heat Transfer of Upscaled Additively Manufactured Channels in the Turbulent Region Using Infrared Thermography

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

    Author : Kaibin Wen; [2023]
    Keywords : Investigation of Roughness Effects on Heat Transfer of Upscaled Additively Manufactured Channels in the Turbulent Region Using Infrared Thermography; Additiv tillverkning; värmeöverföring; infraröd termografi; ytjämnhet; finita elementmetoden;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) has largely improved design freedom compared with traditional manufacturing processes such as casting and milling. The layer-by-layer workflow makes it possible to produce objects with much more complex shapes and structures. READ MORE

  4. 4. WEAR RESISTANT MULTI FUNCTIONAL POLYMER COATINGS

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Pranay Kumar Parsi; [2023]
    Keywords : Polymer coatings; Materials; Tribology; Wear resistant; Ice adhesion; Freezing delay; Anti-icing de-icing;

    Abstract : This study aims to develop coatings which show wear resistant behaviour along with multiple functions such as improved ice adhesion, better freezing delay etc which help in improving the effectiveness of the wind turbine efficiency. The significance of anti-icing/de-icing solutions for wind turbines is emphasized since ice accretion can cause serious issues in generation of power and might lead to damage of blades. READ MORE

  5. 5. Analysis to reduce ice-related production losses for wind turbines

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

    Author : Jhason Paran De La Cruz; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind power; cold climate; wind turbine icing; ice losses; ice protection systems; blade heating; de-icing; analytical dashboard; data visualization.; Vindkraft; kalla klimat; nedisning av vindkraftverk; isförluster; isskyddssystem; uppvärmning av blad; avisning; analysverktyg; datavisualisering.;

    Abstract : In the rapidly growing wind energy market, regions with cold climates are currently in the spotlight owing to their abundance of wind resources. However, the operation of wind turbines in cold climate conditions is challenged by serious icing problems. READ MORE
