  1. 1. Hydrogen storage systems : Methodology and model development for hydrogen storage systems performance evaluation based on a transient thermodynamic approach

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Kreshnik Margaritari; [2023]
    Keywords : Hydrogen; Hydrogen storage system; Hydrogen filling process; Hydrogen storage system operation; Hydrogen storage system design; Hydrogen fast filling; Hydrogen tank modelling;

    Abstract : The overall performance of a hydrogen storage system can be affected by various parameters, such as operation and design parameters, but also by the state of the hydrogen contained inside the storage tanks. In this work, a methodology is developed to evaluate the state of the hydrogen during the filling process and its impact on the overall system performance under variable operation conditions and design parameters.

  3. 2. Preliminary Design of a 30 kN Methane-Oxygen-powered Electric-Pump-fed Liquid Rocket Propulsion System

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Rymdteknik

    Author : Vikramjeet Das; [2023]
    Keywords : rocket engine; liquid rocket; methalox; electropump; LRPS; LPRE; liquid methane; electric pump feed system;

    Abstract : The design of a liquid rocket propulsion system, unlike that of a standalone system, is intertwined with the overall development of a number of associated systems and is influenced by a multitude of conditions and considerations: from the requirements needed to accomplish the mission to the rationalizations involved behind the development of each rocket system and/or component. In my thesis, the preliminary design of a “new generation” 30 kN rocket engine driven by an electric pump feed system and running on liquid methane and liquid oxygen is performed. READ MORE

  4. 3. 3D geospatial data requirements for simulating noise using the Nord2000 model: Case study of the impact of building façade types and roof configurations on simulated traffic noise levels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Soraya Hosseinvash Azari; [2023]
    Keywords : Physical Geography; Ecosystem Analysis; noise simulation; traffic; Nord2000 model; building façade types; roof configurations; geospatial data; 3CIM; SoundPLAN; acoustic properties; urban areas; 3D city model; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : The European Union implements the Environmental Noise Directive (END), which offers a framework for evaluating and assessing environmental noise. All EU members are required to create strategic noise maps to inform the public about noise pollution and its effects. READ MORE

  5. 4. 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.

  6. 5. Optimisation of the gas atomisation process used in aluminium powder production : To improve morphology by minimising satellite formations

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Henrik Hedlin; Johan Nymo; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : There exists a lack of information and an exact understanding of the gas atomisation process resulting in the use of trial and error methods in the industry. The lack of information is the result of the difficulties in observing the actual process as it occurs, something that the use of computational fluid dynamics may be able to substitute. READ MORE
