  1. 31. Modeling of a vehicular LNG tank with regard to real time implementation

    University essay from KTH/Maskinkonstruktion (Inst.)

    Author : Christian Wessel; [2015]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The usage of natural gas (NG) as an alternative vehicle fuel is becoming more and more common, due to a factor of approximately 600 between the liquid and vapour phase density, the storage of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in cryogenic containers is desirable to enable for NG propelled long haulage vehicles. Due to the novelty of the LNG vehicular market, little research in the field “modeling of LNG vehicular tanks” exists. READ MORE

  3. 32. How to handle boil-off gases from LNG trucks

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Maskinkonstruktion; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Linda Gunnarsson; Erik Helander; [2015]
    Keywords : LNG; Liquefied natural gas; boil-off; boil-off gases; BOG; natural gas;

    Abstract : This master thesis project aims to investigate the circumstances of boil-off for heavy vehicle transports, using LNG as fuel, and suggest possible ways of handling these gases otherwise released into the atmosphere. LNG, Liquefied Natural Gas, is when natural gas is cooled below its vaporisation point, turning it into liquid phase which is a much more dense way of storing and transporting the fuel. READ MORE

  5. 34. The Directive on the Deployment of Alternative Fuels Infrastructure : An analysis of its effects on the market uptake of natural gas vehicles

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Karl Törnmarck; [2014]
    Keywords : Sustainable Development; natural gas; transport; EU; microeconomics; policy; energy.; Hållbar utveckling; naturgas; transport; EU; mikroeconomi; policy; energi;

    Abstract : The EU transport sector is currently extremely dependent on foreign oil and the import bill for this fuel was in 2011 approximately € 210 billion.

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Natis Johansson; Sebastian King; Per Wettergren; [2013]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Natural gas consists of carbon hydrates and is utilized in the residential, commercial industrial and transportation sector and for power generation. Due to the fact that natural gas emits 23 % and 44 % less carbon dioxide than oil and coal respectively when burned, it becomes a more attractive fuel from an environmental perspective. READ MORE
