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

    Author : Salvatore Guccione; [2020]
    Keywords : Concentrating solar power CSP ; liquid sodium; advanced molten salt; chloride salt; heat exchanger HX ; shell and tube; CSP Gen3 Liquid-Phase Pathway; Modelica; Termisk solkraft; CSP; flytande natrium; avancerat smält salt; kloridsalt; värmeväxlare HX ; skal och rör; CSP Gen3 Liquid-Phase Pathway; Modelica;

    Abstract : Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) is one of the most promising renewable energybased electricity generation technologies to deal with the increasing demand of power consumption and environmental sustainability. With the aim of achieving the 2020 SunShot cost target for CSP of 60 USD/MWh, the United States Department of Energy presented, in May 2018, the Gen3 CSP initiative. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation of the heat transfer of enhanced additively manufactured minichannel heat exchangers

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

    Author : Hamidreza Rastan; [2019]
    Keywords : Minichannel; Microchannel; Heat exchanger; Additive manufacturing; 3D printing; Numerical simulation; CFD; Comsol;

    Abstract : Mini-/microchannel components have received attention over the past few decades owing to their compactness and superior thermal performance. Microchannel heat sinks are typically manufactured through traditional manufacturing practices (milling and sawing, electrodischarge machining, and water jet cutting) by changing their components to work in microscale environments or microfabrication techniques (etching and lost wax molding), which have emerged from the semiconductor industry.
