  1. 1. Reactor Chemistry in LWR SMRs : Determination of the rate constant for the reaction between boric acid and hydroxyl radicals

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysikalisk kemi

    Author : Fredrik Petersson; [2023]
    Keywords : LWR; SMR; Water chemistry; Radiolysis; Boric acid; LWR; SMR; vattenkemi; Radiolys; Borsyra; Hydroxylradikal;

    Abstract : Ett problem vid byggandet av nya kärnkraftverk för elproduktion är de stora investeringskostnaderna samt den långa tiden det att få tillstånd för en reaktor och bygga den. Nyligen färdigställdes den tredje reaktorn vid Olkiluoto I Finland, den tog 18 år att färdigställa exklusive tiden att få tillstånd för reaktorn. READ MORE

  3. 2. Investigation of Roughness Effects on Heat Transfer of Upscaled Additively Manufactured Channels in the Turbulent Region Using Infrared Thermography

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

    Author : Kaibin Wen; [2023]
    Keywords : Investigation of Roughness Effects on Heat Transfer of Upscaled Additively Manufactured Channels in the Turbulent Region Using Infrared Thermography; Additiv tillverkning; värmeöverföring; infraröd termografi; ytjämnhet; finita elementmetoden;

    Abstract : Additive manufacturing (AM) has largely improved design freedom compared with traditional manufacturing processes such as casting and milling. The layer-by-layer workflow makes it possible to produce objects with much more complex shapes and structures. READ MORE

  4. 3. Microstructural design and optimization of Nickel-based superalloys for gas turbines

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Anirudh Vasishta; [2023]
    Keywords : Nickel- based superalloys; gamma prime γ′ size calculations; Nickelbaserade superlegeringar; gamma prime γ′ storleksberäkningar;

    Abstract : One of the main sources of energy in this modern world is the gas turbine.  They reach extremely high working temperatures at peak capacity and hence require materials that can withstand the same. READ MORE

  5. 4. Automated High-Temperature Pressure Sensor Verification and Characterization

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för systemteknik

    Author : Algirdas Bartkevicius; [2023]
    Keywords : Pressure sensor; sensor verification; sensor characterization; piezoelectric sensor; dynamic pressure sensor;

    Abstract : Gas turbines are widely used in power generation. Monitoring pressure variations in the combustion chamber allows for real-time assessment of the turbines performance, and can be used to optimize combustion processes, leading to reduced emissions. READ MORE

  6. 5. Analysis of Microgrid Electrification on Phaluai Island : A Minor Field Study in Thailand

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