  1. 26. Short-horizon Prediction of Indoor Temperature using Low-Order Thermal Networks : A case study of thermal models for heat-system control applications

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

    Author : Jonas Cederberg; [2023]
    Keywords : Lumped Parameter Thermal Network; Resistance-Capacitance model; Parameter estimation; Modelling of Dynamical Systems; Thermal modelling; Temperature Prediction; Termiskt nätverk med klumpade parametrar; Mostånds-kapacitans modell; Parameterestimering; Modellering av dynamiska system; Termisk modellering; Temperaturprediktion.;

    Abstract : Optimizing and controlling the heating systems in buildings is one way to decrease their load on the power grid, as well as introduce load flexibility to be used in Demand Response (DR) applications. A requirement in occupied buildings is that the thermal comfort of the residents is guaranteed, making the optimization of heating systems a constrained problem with respect to indoor temperature.

  3. 27. Fast deep discharging using a controllable load as pretreatment for EV battery recycling : A study on efficacy, speed, and safety

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

    Author : Lucas Van Genechten; [2023]
    Keywords : Recycling; lithium-ion battery; deep discharging; external short-circuit; internal pressure; thermal stability; Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy; Återvinning; litiumjonbatteri; djupurladdning; extern kortslutning; internt tryck; termisk stabilitet; electrochemical impedance spectroscopy;

    Abstract : In response to the present and projected growth of the EV industry, the development of a large-scale, reliable and efficient lithium-ion battery recycling sector is vital to ensure circularity of the embedded valuable metals and ensure overall sustainability of the technology. One of the main recycling procedures under development is based on hydrometallurgy. READ MORE

  4. 28. Plume-Spacecraft Interaction Analysis : Study on the Plume Effects of Hall-Effect Thrusters (HET) and High-Efficiency Multistage Plasma Thrusters (HEMPT).

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

  5. 29. Numerical simulations of ultrafast dynamics in plasmonic nanostructures

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Nils Henriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Ultrafast nanophotonics; Three temperature model; Numerical simulations;

    Abstract : Plasmonic effects in nanosized particles enhance the interaction between light and matter due to the localized surface plasmon resonance, with potential applications such as all-optical transistors and optical computers. Commonly, the dynamics of nanoparticles’ optical properties are assessed via pump-probe spectroscopy, where a plasmonic structure is exited by an initial laser, the pump. READ MORE

  6. 30. Quantum signatures in the work fluctuation-dissipation relation protocol

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

    Author : Jian Li; [2023]
    Keywords : Quantum entanglement; fluctuation; coherence; quantum information; quantum thermodynamics; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Quantum thermodynamics deals with the behavior of thermal machines that operate in the quantum regime, where coherences and entanglement can have a significant impact. However, detecting such quantum effects in thermal machines can be challenging, as they are primarily manifested as fluctuations. READ MORE
