1. On intermittency in the turbulent asymptotic suction boundary layer
University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)Abstract : This thesis presents a series of direct numerical simulations (DNS) performed in order to understand the discrepancy in the literature regarding turbulent asymptotic suction boundary layers (TASBLs) at low Reynolds numbers. The hypothesis to be tested is that the main reason for higher turbulence intensities observed in experiments compared to DNS is that the latter exhibits intermittent patches of laminar flow, developing both temporally and spatially.

2. Experimental Investigation of High Prandtl Number Flow in Additive Manufactured Channels
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) rapidly evolves and expands into new industries dueto its great design freedom and time savings. Injection molding is an excellentindustry where AM can help reduce cooling time by printing complex coolingchannels for more effective and uniform cooling. READ MORE

3. Gravity water waves over constant vorticity flows: from laminar flows to touching waves
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematik (naturvetenskapliga fakulteten); Lunds universitet/MatematikcentrumAbstract : In a recent paper, Hur and Wheeler proved the existence of periodic steady water waves over an infinitely deep, two-dimensional and constant vorticity flow and subject to gravity whose profile overhangs, among which, waves whose surface touches at a point, enclosing a bubble of air. We take this further, proving the existence of a continuous curve of water waves from a laminar flow up to a touching wave for fixed non-zero gravity. READ MORE

4. Numerical modeling of airflow on the cathode-side of a bipolar flow plate : How the formed geometry affects the pressure drop and flow distribution in a hydrogen fuel cell
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)Abstract : Climate change and rising temperatures is a well-known problem. To tackle global warming a transition from fossil fuels to renewable and reliable energy sources is necessary. Hydrogen, in fuel cells, is proposed to replace diesel and gasoline in the transport sector. READ MORE

5. Chemical Kinetic Modeling of the Combustion of NH3/H2 and NH3/syngas Fuel Mixtures Using a Large Amount of Experimental Data
University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionenAbstract : Nowadays, due to the global climate change, it is extremely important to find alternative fuels to reduce the utilization of fossil fuels and the emission of air pollutants such as carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrocarbon pollutants, and soot. Ammonia (NH3) is a promising carbon free fuel candidate that can store and transport renewable hydrogen (H2) energy. READ MORE
