  1. 21. Simulating cable fires in Fire Dynamics Simulator : Based on small scale testing in cone calorimeter

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Hugo Zacharoff; [2021]
    Keywords : Cable fires; FDS; cone calorimeter;

    Abstract : In a society increasingly more influenced by technology and electricity, electrical and computer cables will play a more vital role in humans’ everyday life. With an increasing number of cables being introduced into society, the risk of fires caused by or involving cables will increase and become a more common danger to property and human lives.

    Abstract : In Sweden, there is a strong and growing interest in solar power. In recent years, photovoltaic (PV) system installations have increased dramatically and a large part are distributed grid connected PV systems i.e. rooftop installations. READ MORE

  4. 23. Design and Development of a Data Acquisition and Communication System for Point Absorber Tracking

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Balakrishnan Kannan; [2021]
    Keywords : Data Acquisition System; Raspberry Pi; Controller; Processor; Wave buoy; Lysekil; wave energy; measurements; IMU; GPS; Strain gauge; force; Solar energy; Battery; communication; 4G; internet; Remote tracking; Shell; Python;

    Abstract : The recent trend in generating energy from the waves has led to several advancements in the methods and the various research is conducted across the world, to study the behaviour of point absorbers on the waves. The point absorbers such as wave buoys are designed to move according to the waves and the generator that is mechanically coupled with the buoys, generate electricity. READ MORE

  5. 24. Performance Evaluation of a Photovoltaic/Thermal (PVT) Collector with Numerical Modelling

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

    Author : Mila Ebrahim; [2021]
    Keywords : Solar energy; Renewable energy; Photovoltaic thermal collector; PV Thermal; PVT Collector; Performance; Numerical modelling; COMSOL Multiphysics; Ground Source Heat Pump; Solenergi; Förnybar energi; kominerad solcell solfångare; PVT panel; Prestanda; Numerisk modellering; COMSOL Multiphysics; Bergvärme;

    Abstract : In Photovoltaic/Thermal (PVT) technology, both PV and solar thermal technology are integrated in the same module for simultaneous electricity and heat production. Research has shown that there are multiple benefits from integrating PVT collectors with a ground source heat pump (GSHP) system, since it allows for seasonal storage of thermal energy over the year.

  6. 25. Design, implementation and evaluation of a daylight estimation tool using 3D city model data

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Peter Nezval; [2021]
    Keywords : 3D city model; CityJSON; solar energy; free and open-source software; 3D feature extraction; solar urban planning; sustainable urban development; geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Solar energy is an important component of sustainable urban development. However, it is still not reaching its full potential due to several reasons. One of them is a lack of free tools based on open geodata capable of estimating solar energy (daylight) metrics on building features, e.g. READ MORE
