1. 21. Modular design and feasibility analysis of a Rankine Compression GasTurbine system for industrial cogeneration

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Daniel Carrion da Fonseca; [2018]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : A substantial share of the world’s energy is consumed in the form of heat in many distinct industries, which usually generates it through a boiler and consumes the heat by using steam as an energy carrier. In such factories, a cogeneration installation is economically and environmentally beneficial. READ MORE

3. 22. Pilot Project Study for Industrial Surplus Heat Transportation

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Kristoffer Pettersson; [2016]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Primary energy use in Sweden today can to a large extent be traced to manufacturing industries. In parallel, improved energy efficiency is a goal set out by Swedish authorities and the EU. One way to improve efficiency in the industry is to harvest the excess energy in form of heat that is currently going to waste in the various processes. READ MORE

4. 23. A techno-economic analysis of implementing temperature-maintaining modifications on the steam turbine of a solar thermal power plant

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Mårten Lundqvist; [2016]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This master thesis examines the techno-economic implications of introducing temperature maintaining modifications on the steam turbine in a direct steam generation solar tower power plant. More specifically, the impact on the maintenance requirements and other performance indicators when installing electrical heat blankets as well as increasing the gland steam temperature, was examined.
