  1. 1. Reliability Assessment of Passive ICS in an SMR as part of the PSA Analysis

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Graeme Trundle; [2023]
    Keywords : Passive system reliability; Probabilistic safety assessment; Reliability Methods of Passive Systems; Natural circulation; TRACE; RiskSpectrum; Passiv systemtillförlitlighet; Probabilistisk säkerhetsbedömning; Reliability Methods of Passive Systems; Naturlig cirkulation; TRACE; RiskSpectrum;

    Abstract : Passive safety systems are increasingly being utilized in prospective nuclear power plant designs. Indeed, the use of safety systems driven by natural phenomena might be seen as an unmitigated virtue. READ MORE

  3. 2. A final drive device for torque vectoring in small racing cars

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Sven Kalkan; [2023]
    Keywords : Torque vectoring; differential; formula student; racecar; racing; BorgWarner; product development; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The agility of the car can be improved by distributing the longitudinal tire forces unevenly between the wheels. The resulting yaw moment helps the car to steer in transient driving scenarios, like on a slalom course. The available grip in steady state cornering can also be increased along with stability.

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Moritz Kuhleber; [2021]
    Keywords : Ground source heat pumps; Elderly homes; Thermal comfort; Energy performance; Multi-family buildings; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Energy efficiency and environmental questions have gained increased attention over the last decade. In combination with global warming and increasing cooling demands, the Swedish market for combined heating and cooling solutions such as ground source heat pumps expands. READ MORE

  5. 4. Geographical Mapping of the Building Envelope Surface Optimal Optical Properties Minimizing the Energy used to Maintain Indoor Conditions

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Alejandro Rodríguez-Urdaneta; [2020]
    Keywords : buildings; energy efficiency; energy savings; energy simulations.; edificios; eficiencia energética; ahorro de energía; simulaciones energéticas.;

    Abstract : Several studies have shown that the buildings envelope optical properties are important in terms of energy use and thermal comfort level. However, no study has been found in regard of the optimal optical properties for the building envelope. READ MORE

  6. 5. Study of passive design and slab cooling in adaptation to climate change of a modern residential building in Stockholm

    University essay from KTH/Hållbara byggnader

    Author : Sofia Elpasidou; [2020]
    Keywords : Climate change; future-ready buildings; passive design; slab cooling; thermal comfort; energy use; building performance; Klimatförändringen; framtidsfärdiga byggnader; passiv design; golvkyla; termisk komfort; energianvändning; byggnadsprestanda;

    Abstract : The impact on the built environment due to the forecasted climate change was presented by the authorities more than one decade ago, but the actions from the building industry to adapt buildings for a changed climate are still lacking. The purpose of this study is to identify a suitable cooling technique for a modern residential building in a future warmer climate in order to maintain thermal comfort but also energy efficiency.
