    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Samir Rawashdeh; [2023]
    Keywords : Duck curve; peak load; capacity factor; availability factor; stability; synthetic inertia; flexibility; ancillary services; solar power; wind power; hydropower; co-generation; heat generation; nuclear power; hydrogen production; electrolysis; fuel cells; V2G; PtG; P2G; P2G2P; ESS; PSH; SMR; NPP; HPP; FFR; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : På grund av energiomställningen, Sveriges mål om att ha en fossilfri elproduktion 2040 samt målet om nettonollutsläpp av växthusgaser 2045 förväntas en omfattande utbyggnad av förnybara energikällor ske. I denna rapport har därför elbehovet, potentialen för elproduktion, möjliga framtida systemproblem samt lösningar undersökts. READ MORE

  2. 12. Forecasting Technological Diffusion through Analogies: Examining Historical Technologies to Assess the Future Growth of Green Hydrogen Electrolysis and Pipeline Network as Climate Mitigation Technologies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Author : Renz Homer Cerillo; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology diffusion; green hydrogen; electrolyze; pipeline; feasibility spaces; reference case forecasting; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Green hydrogen is an advantageous clean energy carrier that enables the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors and addresses the intermittency of renewables. However, its global production is currently constrained by inadequate infrastructure, high investment risks, and relatively technological infancy. READ MORE

  3. 13. Fire Risk and Hazard Analysis of Lithium-Ion Battery Technologies in Underground Facilities: A Literature Review

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Sean Meehan; [2022]
    Keywords : lithium-ion battery; hazards; risks; thermal runaway; detection; fire protection; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The past decades have seen an exponential growth of the lithium-ion battery (LIB) market as use of this high-energy storage has found applications in nearly every industry. The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is interested in implementing this technology within their underground network and this literature review is intended to assist with addressing fire and safety concerns.

  4. 14. Use of the JET pedestal database to assess the role of ion temperature and plasma rotation on the discrepancy between ideal peeling-ballooning model and experimental data

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Max Eichenberger; [2022]
    Keywords : Nuclear fusion; Joint European Torus JET ; H-mode; pedestal; Edge-localized-modes ELMs ; Peeling-Ballooning; relative shift; ion temperature; plasma rotation; Kärnfusion; JET Joint European Torus ; H-läge; piedestal; ELM Edge Localized­Modes ; peeling-ballooning; relativ förskjutning; jontemperatur; plasmarotation;

    Abstract : Next-generation and present fusion devices such as the Joint European Torus (JET) aim for plasma operations in H-mode, a plasma regime with high confinement and low loss of energy and fuel that results from a barrier for heat and particle transport at the plasma edge, the pedestal. Due to steep gradients of the density, temperature and pressure profiles, the pedestal experiences instabilities called Edge-localized-modes (ELMs) which lead to large fluxes of heat and particles that might damage machine components.

  5. 15. Utveckling av Polydimetylsiloxan-Mikropartiklar för Biomedicinsk NMR

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik

    Author : Mohammad Al-Sultani; Josef Djärf; [2022]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a technique for identifying molecular structures, compositions etc. and is widely used in many life science research fields. The purpose of this project is to synthesize PDMS microparticles with a magnetic susceptibility matching water, which makes them applicable for use in NMR of biological samples. READ MORE
