  1. 16. Life cycle assessment of a CAV, a VAV, and an ACB system in a modern Swedish office building

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Nadeen Hassan; [2019]
    Keywords : Life cycle assessment; Environmental impacts; HVAC systems; Environmental indicator; Energy; Environmental performance; Impact assessment; Life cycle impact; Buildings; SimaPRO; Ecoinvent; Manufacturing phase; Operation phase; Active chilled beams; Variable-air-volume system; Constant-air volume system.; Technology and Engineering; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Energy use in buildings contributes significantly to the global energy demand and environmental impacts. Among all building services, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems consume the most energy. HVAC systems are as well one of the largest consumers of natural resources and materials in the building sector. READ MORE

  2. 17. Vibration analysis for predictive maintenance of a rotary pump : Optimal accelerometer configuration based on vibration analysis for cavitation detection of a bi-winged positive displacement pump

    University essay from KTH/Mekatronik

    Author : Gustav Osswald; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Predictive maintenance based on condition monitoring uses sensor and system data to prevent damage, in advance to a failure occurring, allowing for a service to be performed at an optimal position in time. Condition based predictive maintenance estimates time of system failure based on a priori information, which has shown to be much more cost effective than traditional maintenance methods. READ MORE

  5. 20. IMPROVE MAINTENANCE EFFECTIVENESS AND EFFICIENCY BY USING HISTORICAL BREAKDOWN DATA FROM A CMMS : Exploring the possibilities for CBM in the Manufacturing Industry

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Victoria Fridholm; [2018]
    Keywords : Digitalization; Maintenance concepts; Predetermined Maintenance; Predictive Maintenance; Condition-Based Maintenance; P-F curve; Autonomous Maintenance; Computerized Maintenance Management System; Failure; Fault; Root-cause analysis; Effectiveness; Efficiency; Maturity models.;

    Abstract : Purpose: Explore how historical data from a CMMS can be used in order to improve maintenance effectiveness and efficiency of activities, and investigate the possibilities for CBM in the manufacturing industry in the context of digitalization.  Research questions: RQ1: To what extent could condition-based maintenance or other maintenance types being used in order to predict, prevent or in other way eliminate historical breakdowns/faults?  RQ2: Which significance has an organization's degree of maturity to reduce the number of breakdowns?  Method: A case study was performed at Volvo Construction Equipment Operations in Eskilstuna, who manufactures machinery for the construction industry.
