  1. 1. Non-Azeotropic Mixtures as Working Fluids in Heat Pumps: A theoretical and experimental study

    Author : Marine Högberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HCFC123; HCFC124a; HCFC22; performance comparison; COP; non-azeotropic mixture; capacity; sensitivity analysis; HFC152a; heat pump; CFC114; ethyl chloride; experimental study; HCFC142b; two-stage cycle;

    Abstract : Due to the fact that CFC (Chloro-Fluoro-Carbon) fluids will be forbidden as working fluids in heat pumps for environmental reasons, there is an urgent need for alternatives. As one alternative type of fluid, non-azeotropic mixtures have been suggested. This thesis deals with such mixtures. READ MORE

  3. 3. Energy efficiency in Swedish SMEs : Exploring barriers, knowledge creation and the role of municipal energy efficiency programs

    Author : Fredrik Backman; Jenny Palm; Patrik Thollander; Max Åhman; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Policy programs; energy efficiency networks; Community of Practice COPs ; barriers; knowledge creation; Policyprogram; energieffektiviseringsnätverk; Community of Practice COP ; barriärer; skapande av kunskap;

    Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis is to analyze how municipalities support small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in their work to improve their energy efficiency. The purpose of this study is to increase the current understanding of how the methods and tools used by municipalities to assist SMEs in improving their energy efficiency influence the end results in terms of achieved energy efficiency, and how knowledge related to energy efficiency is created within SMEs.

  4. 4. Development of new approaches for tumor suppressor genes identification

    Author : Jinfeng Li; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Tumor suppressor gene TSG ; Cloning of deleted sequences CODE ; Cloning of polymorphisms COP ; Cloning of identical sequences CIS ; Gene inactivation test GIT .;

    Abstract : Development of tumor is a complex process involving multiple steps. New technologies for cloning and identifying genes playing critical role in cancer development are necessary. That is why we have focused our research on development of these approaches. READ MORE

  5. 5. Trust in a Product Development Context : Drivers, Dynamics and Consequences

    Author : Anna Brattström; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : To trust is to accept vulnerability. We need trust when we are dependent on others to achieve what we want, but cannot predict with certainty how they will act. Product development represents such a situation. This activity means to deal with profound uncertainty; creating something that has not existed before. READ MORE
