  1. 1. Small-scale wave energy converter for wave tank facility

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Samir Asseh; [2023]
    Keywords : Wave power; small-scale; Wave tank; facility; Renewable resources; damping; froude scaling; magnets; copper coil; Uppsala University; buoy; MATLAB; COMSOL; PTO; WEC; Electricicity generation.; Förnybar energi; Vågtank; Vågkraft;

    Abstract : A small-scale wave energy converter was designed and built for teaching and academic purposes to be used at The Division for Electricity, in the Ångström Laboratory at Uppsala University. The design of the power take-off (PTO) makes use of magnets passing through a copper coil for electricity generation. READ MORE

  3. 2. Practical investigation of mixing phenomena by physical modelling : Scaling criteria applied for bottom gas-stirred water modelling of metallurgical vessels

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Simon Garpenquist; Carl Erik Sebastian Lindfors; [2021]
    Keywords : Ladle furnace; Water model; Mixing time; Modified Froude number; Scaling criteria; Scaling factors; Skänkmetallurgi; Vattenmodell; Blandningstid; Froude s modifierade tal; Skalnings kriterier; Skalnings faktorer;

    Abstract : Gas stirring is currently the most commonly used method of homogenizing liquid steel in commercial processes. However, due to the harsh environment during the process, physical models built out of e.g. plexiglass have been used to easier understand the complex phenomenon occurring in the process. READ MORE

  4. 3. Investigation of the scale factor between full scale ladle furnace process and water models

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Mathias Abelin; Håkan Blomkvist; [2020]
    Keywords : Ladle furnace; Modified Froude number; Two-phase gas plume; Water model scaling; Skänkmetallurgi; Froudes modifierade tal; Två-fas gasplym; Skalning av vattenmodell;

    Abstract : The ladle furnace process is an important process in the steel manufacturing industry. The purpose of this process is to optimize the composition of the elements in the melt as well as to homogenize the temperature in the liquid. It is common practice to model this process using smaller water models. READ MORE

  5. 4. Influence of ventilation on ro-ro space fire development : A study using two-zone fire models in order to explore tendencies of how different ventilation parameters affects the fire development in a ro-ro space

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Martin Lindgren; Andreas Lilja; [2019]
    Keywords : Fire; Ro-ro space; Ventilation; Simulation; Two-zone model; Brand; Rorolastutrymme; Ventilation; Simulering; Tvåzonsmodell;

    Abstract : A ship to which vehicles and other loads can be rolled on and off is usually named ro-ro ship. A ro-ro ship consists of large corridor shaped space, normally extending to a considerable length or the entire length of the ship, which is usually loaded with various vehicles or stowage units.
