  1. 1. Investigation of Thermal Maturity of  Organic Matter at the Cambro Ordovician Transition in the Zagros Basin, Iran

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Niall Gibbons; [2021]
    Keywords : acritarchs; thermal maturity; Zagros Basin; hydrocarbons; source rocks; paleoenvironment;

    Abstract : The thermal maturity of sediments from the upper Cambrian to lower Ordovician Mila and Ilbeyk  formations in the Zagros Basin in southwestern Iran is evaluated in this thesis. A number of low-cost,  fast, optical evaluation methods are utilised to assess their effectiveness for providing accurate, well  constrained thermal maturity results. READ MORE

  3. 2. Modelling of Laser Welding of Aluminium using COMSOL Multiphysics

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Jie Chen; [2020]
    Keywords : laser welding process; aluminium alloy; thermal-mechanical; COMSOL Multiphysics; hot cracking; thermal model; CFD model; mechanical model; Marangoni effect; lasersvetsningsprocess; aluminiumlegeringar; termisk-mekanisk; COMSOL-flerfysik; hetsprickning; termisk modell; CFD-modell; mekanisk modell; Marangoni-effekt;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a modelling approach of laser welding process of aluminium alloy from the thermo-mechanical point of view to evaluate the occurrence of hot cracking based on simulation results and relevant criteria. The model was created stepwise in COMSOL Multiphysics, starting with the thermal model where heat conduction of solid and liquid phase was computed. READ MORE

  4. 3. Dutch Business case study : Household’s electricity self-consumption maximisation through smart storage and energy

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

    Author : FRANCESCO MILANI; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this Master Thesis Project, the business case has been studied for solutions able to monitor the energy balance and maximise the electricity self-consumption of Dutch households, in preparation for the gradual phasing out of the net metering policy starting from 2023. In the initial market research, products investigated were batteries, home energy management systems and hybrid inverters. READ MORE

  5. 4. Perspectives for mini-scale ORCpower plants coupled with internal combustion engines in the European Union

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

    Author : Tamás Pál; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The ideal energy production and delivery system is featured by less transmission network, smarter grid and higher proportion of locally dispersed renewables in cooperation with combined heat and power (CHP) plants and energy storage. The Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) technology can play a compelling role in achieving the listed objectives. READ MORE
