  1. 1. Phase Change Material : Potential for increased fire resistance in concrete

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : William Toivanen; [2023]
    Keywords : Phase change material; concrete; fire resistance; integration into building materials; latent heat; melting;

    Abstract : The European commission has in the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive from 2010 decided that its member states were required to ensure that all new buildings by the end of 2020 were nearly zero-energy buildings. These buildings require small amounts of energy compared to its performance in example by keeping a pleasant indoor climate. READ MORE

  4. 3. Cooling integrated solar panels using Phase Changing Materials

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för maskinteknik

    Author : Benny Mårtensson; Tobias Karlsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Phase changing material PCM ; optimal working temperature; PV; solar panel; cooling solar panel; Fas ändrande material; optimal arbetstemperatur; Solceller; Kylning av solceller.;

    Abstract : In this master thesis, several cooling systems for PV-systems have been looked into by doing a smaller literature review and then a cooling module for a BIPV-panel was built out from the knowledge gathered. The cooling module used a PCM material separated into 12 bags and then placed in a 3x4 shaped pattern fastened to an aluminium plate that in turn was placed on the back of a PV-panel. READ MORE

  5. 4. Towards a tunable nanometer thick flat lens

    Author : Hugo Laurell; Johan Hillborg; [2018]
    Keywords : Metamaterial; COMSOL; Fano resonances; Surface plasmon polariton; Localized surface plasmons; Nanophotonics;

    Abstract : This report examines the cross sections of silver microresonators subjected to an incident light with different polarization. The microresonators had different geometries with and without broken symmetries. READ MORE

  6. 5. Comparative simulation of heat transfer in a cylinder of phase changing material : How does the orientation impact the energy discharge?

    University essay from KTH/Industriell ekologi

    Author : Niklas Brännlund; Joakim Henriksson; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A computer simulation was done in COMSOL Mulitphysics 5.1, on heat transfer in rods filled with phase change material (PCM). The main objective was to compare the rods rate of heat transfer at two different orientations, horizontal and vertical. READ MORE
