  1. 1. Wildfire growth modelling in Sweden - a suitability assessment of available data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Henrik Hagelin; [2023]
    Keywords : Geography; GIS; Geographic Information Science; Physical geography; Prometheus; WiSE-FASS; The 2014 Västmanland wildfire; Wildfire growth modelling; Wildfire suppression support; Wildfire behaviour; MESAN; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Wildfires are worldwide problems that stress societies by damaging their economies and they cause serious, sometimes fatal, health implications among the populations. In recent years, the rate of wildfire occurrence has increased as the global average temperature has risen. Because of global climate change, this rate is expected to continue rising. READ MORE

  3. 2. A numerical comparison of the thermoacoustics for different equivalence ratios for n-dodecane using LES

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Björn Jarfors; [2023]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; Bluff-body stabilised flames; Large Eddy Simulation; Thermoacoustics; Acoustics; NEUMANN Project; Jet engines; Aero engines; Airplanes; Combustion; Numerics; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Klimatförändringarna påverkar vår värld och det behövs ett mer hållbart samhälle. Flygindustrin är i behov av förändring, men flygmotorer är mycket komplexa och tar tid att utveckla. Termoakustiska instabiliteter har kraften att förstöra en motor, men också att minska miljöpåverkan. READ MORE

  4. 3. Saturated planar laser-induced fluorescence using sinusoidal intensity modulation

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Klara Lozani Gerdhem; [2023]
    Keywords : fluorescence; fluorophore; LIF; PLIF; saturated LIF; saturated PLIF; structured light; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Saturated laser-induced fluorescence (saturated LIF) has been the topic of some research, however mainly regarding laser diagnostic methods conducted on flames. A few papers have discussed saturated LIF with the purpose of producing saturation curves of different fluorescent elements. READ MORE

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Martin Sturdy; [2023]
    Keywords : Flame length; curved ceiling; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this Master thesis project the factors affecting flame extension under flat and curved ceilings have been investigated. An experimental campaign was carried out in Lund University’s Fire Lab using a propane gas burner and heptane pool fire in different positions and heat release rates within the setups. READ MORE

  6. 5. Fire Risk and Hazard Analysis of Lithium-Ion Battery Technologies in Underground Facilities: A Literature Review

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Sean Meehan; [2022]
    Keywords : lithium-ion battery; hazards; risks; thermal runaway; detection; fire protection; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The past decades have seen an exponential growth of the lithium-ion battery (LIB) market as use of this high-energy storage has found applications in nearly every industry. The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is interested in implementing this technology within their underground network and this literature review is intended to assist with addressing fire and safety concerns.
