  1. 6. Development of CFD method to model thermal properties of laminates in a truck cab : Modeling solids and HVAC performance

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanisk värmeteori och strömningslära

    Author : Aniruddh Mohan; [2022]
    Keywords : CFD; Conjugate heat transfer; HVAC; Shell modeling;

    Abstract : The study of Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system performance is important to understand its energy consumption, especially for electric vehicles. The purpose of this thesis is to develop a methodology to simulate the flow within the Scania S20H cab while also capturing the thermal properties of the fluid and solids within the cab. READ MORE

    University essay from KTH/Teknisk mekanik

    Author : Eric Axtelius; [2022]
    Keywords : Mechanics; Fluid Mechanics; CFD; Preheater; Moisture Separator; Nuclear; Steam; Heat Transfer;

    Abstract : This project has investigated and formed a basis for the thermal- and flow-induceddynamic loads in the lower parts of a preheater situated in a nuclear power plant.Special attention has been given to the bottom plate that separates the heated andnon-heated secondary steam. READ MORE

  4. 8. Energy Usage in Railway Wayside Object Heating : Modeling of melting of Ice, Estimation of heating power requirement in Switch and Renewable energy feasibility for a Railway system

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

    Author : Sidharth Kapoor; [2022]
    Keywords : Melting of Ice; Numerical modeling; Transient conjugate heat transfer; Transient analysis; CFD; Switch heating; Heat pumps in Railways; Issmältning; Numerisk modellering; Transient värmeöverföring; Transientanalys; CFD; Värmepumpar i järnvägar;

    Abstract : Trafikverket operates about 12000 Switches and crossings (SnCs) of which 6800 are equipped with an electrical heating system of 10−30kW power to keep SnCs functional throughout the winters by keeping them free of Snow/Ice. The energy consumption is approximately 200−130GWh/year costing approximately 10−15 million Euros annually. READ MORE

  6. 10. Cooling Potential of Methane in Rocket Nozzle Cooling Channels : A Conjugate Heat Transfer Analysis

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

    Author : Marcus Pettersson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The use of hydrocarbons as fuel in rocket propulsion has been of great interest to the aerospace industry in recent years. Specifically, natural gas with a high content of methane has taken the interest of several actors, among them Sweden-based GKN Aerospace who in collaboration with KTH Royal Institute of Technology have started the MERiT project.
