  1. 1. A numerical comparison of the thermoacoustics for different equivalence ratios for n-dodecane using LES

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Björn Jarfors; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; Bluff-body stabilised flames; Large Eddy Simulation; Thermoacoustics; Acoustics; NEUMANN Project; Jet engines; Aero engines; Airplanes; Combustion; Numerics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Klimatförändringarna påverkar vår värld och det behövs ett mer hållbart samhälle. Flygindustrin är i behov av förändring, men flygmotorer är mycket komplexa och tar tid att utveckla. Termoakustiska instabiliteter har kraften att förstöra en motor, men också att minska miljöpåverkan. READ MORE

  3. 2. Linking the selectivity of varying surface phases of a real palladium catalyst toward specific methane oxidation pathways with Ambient Pressure X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Ulrike Küst; [2023]
    Keywords : APXPS; catalysis; palladium; methane; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The study of heterogeneous catalysis, especially within methane oxidation, is of high importance in order to more efficiently remove unburned methane from bio-fuel exhausts. This is relevant as bio-fuel engines will replace those driven by fossil fuels in the coming decades. READ MORE

  4. 3. Mathematical modeling and analysis of hot carrier solar cells

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Benjamin van Dijk; [2023]
    Keywords : solar cell; nanowires; hot carrier; nanowire; analysis; mathematical model; trends; fermi function; reservoirs; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the analysis of a mathematical model of a nanowire based hot carrier solar cell. The relevance of the topic comes from the energy crisis society is facing today. Firstly, we discuss the basic principle of hot carrier solar cells and discuss several energy loss factors. READ MORE

  5. 4. Chemical Kinetic Modeling of the Combustion of NH3/H2 and NH3/syngas Fuel Mixtures Using a Large Amount of Experimental Data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Andras Szanthoffer; [2022]
    Keywords : Ammonia combustion; Detailed chemical kinetic mechanisms; Quantitative mechanism comparison; Local sensitivity analysis; Chemical Physics; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Nowadays, due to the global climate change, it is extremely important to find alternative fuels to reduce the utilization of fossil fuels and the emission of air pollutants such as carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrocarbon pollutants, and soot. Ammonia (NH3) is a promising carbon free fuel candidate that can store and transport renewable hydrogen (H2) energy. READ MORE

  6. 5. LES modelling of spray combustion

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Arvid Åkerblom; [2021]
    Keywords : Gas Turbine; CFD; Large Eddy Simulation; Lagrangian Particle Tracking; Chemical Kinetics; Reaction Mechanism; Combustion; OpenFOAM; CHEMKIN; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Computational fluid dynamics is a powerful method for understanding the flow and combustion that occurs inside aircraft engines and will be a key tool in the transition from conventional fossil-based fuel to sustainable alternatives. Because conventional fuels have been more widely researched, an attempt at simulating the combustion of alternative fuels should be preceded by the development of a method that is capable of accurately simulating the combustion of a conventional fuel.
