    Abstract : Since its discovery in 2011, the ferroelectricity of thin films based on HfO2 has been studied intensively. In particular, thin films with a 1:1 ratio of HfO2 and ZrO2 (HZO) has been of great interest. The ferroelectricity arises from a non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic (o) phase of HZO whose prevalence is dependent on the processing conditions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Litteraturstudie - Energieffektivisering av livsmedelsbutiker genom nyttjande av överskottsvärme

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

    Author : Christ Asadour; Teodor Nymark; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Generellt sett har livsmedelsbutiker ett stort behov av enrgi i form av el, värme, komfortkyla och livsmedelskyla. Livsmedelsbutikers höga elanvändning utgör 3% av Sveriges totala elanvändning. En betydande del av elanvändningen går till kylsystem och genererar på så vis överskottsvärme från kondensorn som ofta slösas bort. READ MORE
