  1. 1. Increasing the diodicity of ceramic Tesla valves by exploiting the design freedom of additive manufacturing : A study in design optimizations of Tesla valves for ceramic 3D printing

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för materialvetenskap

    Author : Udit Sharma; [2024]
    Keywords : additive; manufacturing; Tesla; valve; ceramic; 3D; printing;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis was conducted at Uppsala University and at Fraunhofer IKTS, Dresden. The thesis aims to study design optimizations for increasing the diodicity and thereby performance of a Tesla valve, a type of “no moving parts” (NMP) valve, through design freedoms offered by ceramic additive manufacturing.

  3. 2. 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.

  4. 3. Exploring Particulate Filtration during Thermal Runaway in Lithium-Ion Battery Packs

    University essay from KTH/Kemiteknik

    Author : Amanda Halvarsson; [2023]
    Keywords : battery pack; particles; thermal runaway; filtration; batteripack; partiklar; termisk rusning; filtrering;

    Abstract : Med övergången till elektrifiering inom transport uppstår nya utmaningar när det gäller batterisystem som placeras i elfordon. Det finns för närvarande en möjlighet att minska riskerna med toxiciteten hos partiklar som sprutas ut med de gaser som bildas under termisk rusning i litiumjonbattericeller som är placerade i batterisystem.

  5. 4. Microstructure characteristics and tribological behaviour of plasma sprayed ceramic coatings

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

    Author : Luigi Fadini; [2023]
    Keywords : Thermal spray; APS; SPS; tribology; wear resistant ceramic coatings;

    Abstract : Surface engineering is increasingly becoming inevitable for meeting the high-performance requirements constantly expected from modern engineering components. Higher demands for combined functionalities, which a base material alone cannot provide, motivate intensive academic studies on various types of coatings, with the ultimate objective of their practical utilisation in industries.
