  1. 1. Parametric investigation of a theoretical organic rankine cycle

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Jim Wernersson; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The energy resource waste heat or low-grade thermal energy is available in vast quantities. Tapping into this resource and converting it to electrical energy would not only reduce energy waste but also has the potential to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Reactor Chemistry in LWR SMRs : Determination of the rate constant for the reaction between boric acid and hydroxyl radicals

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysikalisk kemi

    Author : Fredrik Petersson; [2023]
    Keywords : LWR; SMR; Water chemistry; Radiolysis; Boric acid; LWR; SMR; vattenkemi; Radiolys; Borsyra; Hydroxylradikal;

    Abstract : Ett problem vid byggandet av nya kärnkraftverk för elproduktion är de stora investeringskostnaderna samt den långa tiden det att få tillstånd för en reaktor och bygga den. Nyligen färdigställdes den tredje reaktorn vid Olkiluoto I Finland, den tog 18 år att färdigställa exklusive tiden att få tillstånd för reaktorn. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of the Effect of Quinoa-containing bread varieties on acute blood glucose and insulin responses

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Livsmedelsteknik och nutrition (master)

    Author : Cecilia Nilsson; [2023]
    Keywords : applied nutrition and food chemistry; quinoa; bread; postprandial blood glucose; insulin; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Three quinoa-containing breads made from three different varieties of quinoa were presented as test products to be compared with a control of regular white wheat bread. The study was a randomised controlled single-blind, crossover in which blood glucose, insulin and subjective appetite sensations “Hunger”, “Satiety” and “Desire to eat” were measured in regular intervals during a three hours period after food consumption.

  5. 4. Dynamic Modeling of Heat Power System : Modeling of a Heat Power System Using Physical and Data-driven Methods and Investigation of a Moving Boundary Method

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

    Author : Albin Gustafsson; [2023]
    Keywords : System identification; Dynamic modeling; Organic Rankine cycle; Moving boundary; Thermodynamics.; System identifikation; Dynamisk modellering; Organisk Rankinecykel; Rörliga randvillkor; Termodynamik.;

    Abstract : Our society is becoming more and more electrified every day. However, a significant portion of the world’s electricity generation relies on the combustion of fossil fuels to produce heat, which is subsequently harnessed to generate electricity. One way of generating electricity from heat is by utilizing a Rankine cycle. READ MORE

  6. 5. Dimensioning study of EPR2 fuel pool cooling system

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Thomas Rubler; [2023]
    Keywords : EPR2; PTR; spent fuel pool; heat exchange; EPR2; PTR; bassäng för utbränt kärnbränsle; värmeväxling.;

    Abstract : The PTR system allows the EPR2 fuel pool to be cooled. The evacuation of the residual power fromthe pool is ensured by several heat exchangers and pumps, which have to be dimensioned in order to meetdifferent requirements.In order to dimension them, the worst-case scenario of the components must first be determined.
