  1. 1. Methods for local energy and climate planning : A Case stuudy on the Urban Community of Dunkirk

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

    Author : Sacha Thibault; [2023]
    Keywords : Energy transition - Climate and energy policy - Renewable energy - Decision-Support Tools - Local authorities; Energiomställning - Klimat- och energipolitik - Förnybar energi - Verktyg för beslutsstöd - Lokala myndigheter;

    Abstract : Energy management concerns were raised in France after the oil crisis in the 1970s. From then, the local actors developed policies to better control the energy production and consumption on the territories. Climate considerations and the need to limit greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions were then added to these energy issues in the early 2000s. READ MORE

  4. 3. 1D Simulation of Hydraulic Cam Phaser System Utilized in Heavy Duty Vehicles : An Investigation on Attenuation of Phase Oscillations from Cam Torque Disturbances

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Johan Germundsson; [2023]
    Keywords : master thesis; cam phaser; simulation; 1D-simulation; GT-SUITE; GT-ISE; Gamma Technologies; oil aeration; oscillations; heavy-duty; engine; phaser; cam torque; stability; cam phaser system; Scania; Scalia CV;

    Abstract : Cam phasers allow improvements to the efficiency and emissions of internal combustion engines. The usage of hydraulic vane type cam phasers for heavy-duty applications have shown problems with oscillations during testing at Scania CV. To investigate the root cause of the oscillations a detailed 1-d simulation model has been created. READ MORE
