  1. 1. High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage for Innovative Hybrid CSP/PV Plants : A Comprehensive Design Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Lorenzo Centonze; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : By means of a literature review, critical parameters in the context of thermal energy storage systems, particularly packed bed thermal energy storage systems are identified. The goals of this thesis project are to come up with an optimized design for a PBSTES and to evaluate the thermal performance of alternative storage materials derived from byproducts of industrial processes and natural rocks in order to reduce the environmental impact of the designed system.

  3. 2. Analysis of a shape morphing structural battery: manufacturing, analytical modeling and numerical simulation

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Alfredo Bici; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A reduction in the global use of fossil fuels is necessary when striving for a more sustainable future. One key strategy in the transition from fossil fuels is electrification. This strategy is particularly prominent within the transport sector, where more efficient ways to store electric energy are being pursued. READ MORE

  4. 3. Multiscale & Multiphysics Modelling of Thrust Pad (Air) Bearings

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

    Author : Nipon Roy; [2023]
    Keywords : Finite element modelling; Air bearing; Multiphysics simulations; Air lubrication; surface texture; Topology optimization;

    Abstract : Without lubrication, machines are not imaginable to perform over a long period of time and complete their designated operations. With its omnipresent availability, the air is capable of functioning as a lubricant in long operations very efficiently. Moreover, thrust bearings support axial loads and transmit power at the same time under heavy loads. READ MORE

  5. 4. Small-scale wave energy converter for wave tank facility

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Samir Asseh; [2023]
    Keywords : Wave power; small-scale; Wave tank; facility; Renewable resources; damping; froude scaling; magnets; copper coil; Uppsala University; buoy; MATLAB; COMSOL; PTO; WEC; Electricicity generation.; Förnybar energi; Vågtank; Vågkraft;

    Abstract : A small-scale wave energy converter was designed and built for teaching and academic purposes to be used at The Division for Electricity, in the Ångström Laboratory at Uppsala University. The design of the power take-off (PTO) makes use of magnets passing through a copper coil for electricity generation. READ MORE

  6. 5. Investigation of flux dependence on viscosity in ultrafiltration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Peter Bourghardt; [2023]
    Keywords : ultrafiltration; viscosity; molasess; konjac glucomannan; comsol; LabStak M39; membrane; filtration; chemical engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : This project aims to compare the effect of viscosity on flux for high viscosity liquids. The performance of two different viscous solutions was studied in a plate-and-frame membrane module. READ MORE
