1. 1. WEAR RESISTANT MULTI FUNCTIONAL POLYMER COATINGS

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

   Author : Pranay Kumar Parsi; [2023]
   Keywords : Polymer coatings; Materials; Tribology; Wear resistant; Ice adhesion; Freezing delay; Anti-icing de-icing;

   Abstract : This study aims to develop coatings which show wear resistant behaviour along with multiple functions such as improved ice adhesion, better freezing delay etc which help in improving the effectiveness of the wind turbine efficiency. The significance of anti-icing/de-icing solutions for wind turbines is emphasized since ice accretion can cause serious issues in generation of power and might lead to damage of blades. READ MORE

6. 5. Design and investigation of a pulsating heat pipe for electronic cooling

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

   Author : Sulafa Hammad; [2023]
   Keywords : Pulsating heat pipes PHP ; Electronic cooling; two phase flow heat transfer; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The purpose of this study is to design and investigate a pulsating heat pipe device (PHP). A PHP is a two-phase flow heat transfer device which can handle high heat fluxes with passive internal flow. It is made of a continuous loop serpentine, partially filled with a working fluid that can cool systems, such as electronic devices. READ MORE
