  1. 1. Incorporating Flax Fiber Composites in Hypercar Panels

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Hanna Öster; Sara Isorena Guðjónsdóttir; [2023]
    Keywords : sound transmission loss; coincidence frequency; sound pressure level; flax fibre; carbon fibre; ljudtransmission; koincidensfrekvens; ljudtrycksnivå; linfiber; kolfiber;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates sound transmission loss through flat finite panels using composite materials, which incorporate both carbon and flax fibres. The study wascarried out by performing FEM simulations developed and validated in steps. Thevalidation process was time-consuming but crucial in ensuring the model’s reliability. READ MORE

  3. 2. Experimental Testing of Solar Photovoltaic/Thermal Collectors for Low Temperature Heat Pump Integration

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

    Author : Jaakko Eskola; [2023]
    Keywords : Solar photovoltaic thermal; PVT; heat pump; thermal performance; ISO 9806:2017; Solhybrid; PVT; värmepump; termisk prestanda; ISO 9806:2017;

    Abstract : A hybrid photovoltaic/thermal (PVT) collector enables simultaneous electricity and heat production from a single solar module. Integrating PVT collectors with a ground source heat pump (GSHP) improves the seasonal performance of the heating system and prevents from temperature degradation of the ground. READ MORE

  4. 3. Development of a CFD Boundary Condition to Simulate a Perforated Surface

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Medet Kiflemariam; [2021]
    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics; CFD; Boundary Condition; Bleed; Aerospace Engineering; Aeronautical Engineering; Physics;

    Abstract : In aircraft with jet propulsion engine intakes at supersonic speed, strong pressure waves referred to as shockwaves occur, which may interact with any present boundary layers along the intake surface. The adverse pressure gradients associated with Shock Wave-Boundary Layer Interaction (SWBLI) may cause boundary layer flow separation, which can result in disturbances of the flow that can be harmful to the device or decrease engine performance.
