  1. 21. Applications of steel-plate composite structures for nuclear modular construction

    University essay from KTH/Betongbyggnad

    Author : Yann Vicedo; [2021]
    Keywords : nuclear concrete structures; modular construction; steel-plate composite modules; kärnkraftsbetongkonstruktioner; modulär konstruktion; kompositmoduler av stålplåt;

    Abstract : Despite being the world’s second most important low-carbon source of electricity, the development of nuclear capacities is limited and does not comply with the International Energy Agency’s Sustainable Development Scenario. One of the main reasons for this lack of development is high and increasing costs of new nuclear capacities. READ MORE

  3. 22. Development of a Nordic BWR plant model in APROS and design of a power controller using the control rods

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Jonathan Al-Ani; [2021]
    Keywords : APROS; Dynamic process simulation; System code; Nuclear reactor; nuclear power; BWR; Boiling Water Reactor; closed cycle; steam cycle; one-dimensional flow; Westinghouse; control rods; APROS; Dynamisk processimulering; Beräkningsmodell; Kärnkraft; BWR; Kokvattenreaktor; ångcykel; en-dimensionell flödesmodell; Westinghouse; kontrollstavar;

    Abstract : In this master thesis an input-model of a Nordic BWR power plant has been developed in APROS. The plant model contains key systems and major thermohydraulic components of the steam cycle, including I&C systems (i.e. power, pressure, level and flow controls). READ MORE

  5. 24. Review and Design Adaptations of a SrCl2-NH3 bench-scale Thermochemical Heat Storage system

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Hjörtur Brynjarsson; [2021]
    Keywords : Thermochemical heat storage TCS ; SrCl2-NH3; system design; kinetics; absorption; desorption; octaammine; diammine; monoammine; pressure management; commissioning; Termokemisk värmelagring TCS ; SrCl2-NH3; systemdesign; kinetik; absorption; desorption; oktaammin; diammin; monoammin; tryckhantering; driftsättning;

    Abstract : Thermochemical heat storage (TCS) is a thermal energy storage (TES) technology used to store thermal energy for later use. TCS can provide heating or cooling services from intermittently available thermal energy, often low grade waste heat. READ MORE

  6. 25. Implementation of Reaction Kinetics into Reactor Model Followed by Validation of the Reactor Model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Rebecka Svensson; [2021]
    Keywords : Modeling; Reaction kinetics; Chemical Engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This master thesis project was performed in collaboration with Johnson Matthey. Johnson Matthey is a worldwide company working with sustainable technologies. The site in Perstorp, where this work was performed, focus on formaldehyde production. In order to continuously improve chemical processes, simulation and modeling are advantageous tools. READ MORE
