  1. 1. High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage for Innovative Hybrid CSP/PV Plants : A Comprehensive Design Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Lorenzo Centonze; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : By means of a literature review, critical parameters in the context of thermal energy storage systems, particularly packed bed thermal energy storage systems are identified. The goals of this thesis project are to come up with an optimized design for a PBSTES and to evaluate the thermal performance of alternative storage materials derived from byproducts of industrial processes and natural rocks in order to reduce the environmental impact of the designed system.

  2. 2. Modeling for characterization of continuous casting simulator using CFD

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Filip Reineholm-Hult; [2023]
    Keywords : Continuous casting; CFD; computational fluid dynamics;

    Abstract : In order to improve the continuous casting process of steel, it’s important to have an understanding of the fuid mechanics of the casting process. As experiments on a real caster are usually impractical, both physical and numerical modeling are important for creating this understanding. READ MORE

  3. 3. Heat recovery from low emission steel production through electrolysis and hydrogen reduction

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Sofia Kongshöj; [2023]
    Keywords : Electrolysis; H2 Green Steel H2GS ; waste heat recovery; district heating.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The steel industry is a large emitter of carbon dioxide and uses a lot of energy. Because of an increased awareness of the detrimental effects of climate change, research in alternative ways to operate steel plants have been made. It is now possible to build plants with far less emissions by using electrolysis and hydrogen reduction. READ MORE

  4. 4. Dissolution of Cored Wire in Steel Melt : Optimization of Feeding Rate

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Hagen Christian Hagens; [2022]
    Keywords : Cored wire injection · light alloy addition · feed rate optimization · inclusions modification · finite difference method;

    Abstract : Calcium treatment is an established operation in the production of steels. Most importantly, it serves to modify detrimental inclusions in the melt for improved castability and superior product properties. Due to calcium’s low melting point and high vapour pressure, its addition to liquid steel is challenging and yields are generally low. READ MORE

  5. 5. Sustainable concrete bridges : An investigation of possible measures to reduce the climate impact

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Daniel Hugh; [2022]
    Keywords : Bridges; CO2; emission; cement; reinforcement; SCM; sustainability.;

    Abstract : The need of building new bridges is always existing in relation with the increase of infrastructureand transport needs. Bridge constructions have traditionally been associated with highconsumption of resources and large greenhouse gas emissions. READ MORE
