  1. 1. High-Temperature Thermal Energy Storage for Innovative Hybrid CSP/PV Plants : A Comprehensive Design Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Lorenzo Centonze; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : By means of a literature review, critical parameters in the context of thermal energy storage systems, particularly packed bed thermal energy storage systems are identified. The goals of this thesis project are to come up with an optimized design for a PBSTES and to evaluate the thermal performance of alternative storage materials derived from byproducts of industrial processes and natural rocks in order to reduce the environmental impact of the designed system.

  3. 2. An Evaluation Study of Leak Testing Technologies for Watertight Plate Heat Exchangers : Fast and sustainable leak testing technology for high energy efficiency products

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för matematik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Fritjof Nilsson; Yanjun Peng; [2023]
    Keywords : Leak rate; Optimization; Pressure Decay; Vacuum Technology; Volume; Läckhastighet; Optimering; Tryckfall; Vakuum Teknologi; Volym;

    Abstract : Background: One part of manufacturing a Plate Heat Exchanger (PHE) is to leak test them before delivery. Today, helium is used extensively in leak testing. How-ever, it is unsustainable to use helium in leak testing, because of its non-renewability and therefore becoming more and more expensive. Also, this technology is relatively complex. READ MORE

  4. 3. Investigation of coarse-grid CFD approach for nuclear engineering application

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Michela Casarella; [2023]
    Keywords : Thermal-hydraulics; Nuclear reactor; CFD; Sub-channel; Coarse-grid; Turbulence; Pressure drop; Termisk-hydraulik; kärnreaktor; CFD; underkanal; grovkornigt nät; turbulens; tryckfall;

    Abstract : In this thesis, an innovative coarse grid CFD approach is developed that aims toexploit the capabilities of sub-channel codes and CFD methods while overcoming theirlimitations. In the approach, a very coarse mesh is implemented in the CFD softwareOpenFOAM and a new wall treatment, based on the traditional concept of the wallfunction, is applied to the wall boundary conditions of the domain to take into accountthe low resolution of the grid which does not allow to effectively capture the effect of thesolid walls on the thermo-hydraulics of the flow.

  5. 4. Water quality improvement of highway runoff by the filter material D-Rainclean : A five-month field trial

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : William Gulding; [2023]
    Keywords : Adsorption; D-Rainclean; metal removal; Reactive filter; stormwater treatment;

    Abstract : Highway runoff and its pollutants are of growing concern. These pollutants require treatment as their concentration often are increased. A common removal method is the use of sedimentation ponds that removes particulates through gravity. READ MORE

  6. 5. A VVER1000 primary side model in Apros

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Karl-Edvin Strand; [2023]
    Keywords : Apros; VVER1000; PWR; Modelling; HPIS; Boron acid; Apros; VVER1000; PWR; Modellering; HPIS; Borsyra;

    Abstract : Nuclear power plants generate electricity by means of splitting atoms. The basic safety requirements and objectives are to protect the people, society, and the environment from radiological accidents, limit harmful effects of ionizing radiation during operation and take all reasonable practical steps to prevent radiological accidents.
