  1. 1. Measurements of Film Flow Rate in Heated Tubes with Various Axial Power Distributions

    Author : Carl Adamsson; Henryk Anglart; Bengt Sundén; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; film flow; film thickness; dryout; power distribution; annular flow; Atomic physics; Atomfysik;

    Abstract : Measurements of film mass flow rate for annular, diabatic steam-water flow in tubes are presented. The measurements were carried out with four axial power distributions and at several axial positions at conditions typical for boiling water reactors, i.e. 7 MPa pressure and total mass flux in a range from 750 to 1750 kg/m2s.

  2. 2. Mechanistic Modeling of Water Vapour Condensation in Presence of Noncondensable Gases

    Author : Krzysztof Karkoszka; Henryk Anglart; Bengt Sundén; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the analytical and numerical analysis of the water vapour condensation from the multicomponent mixture of condensable and noncondensable gases in the area of the nuclear reactor thermal-hydraulic safety.Following an extensive literature review in this field three aspects of the condensation phenomenon have been taken into consideration: a surface condensation, a liquid condensate interaction with gaseous mixtures and a spontaneous condensation in supersaturated mixtures.

  3. 3. Numerical simulation of multi-scale transport processes and reactions in pem fuel cells using two-phase models

    Author : Munir Khan; Jinliang Yuan; Bengt Sundén; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; numerical analysis; multi-scale; multi-phase; reacting flows; multi-component;

    Abstract : A numerical study for the cathode of a PEM fuel cell has been performed in this study. The results have been limited to cathode only because, in PEM fuel cells, the oxygen reduction reactions, ORRs, are considered the rate limiting reactions and govern the fuel cell performance.

  4. 4. CFD in the design of gas quenching furnace

    Author : Olivier Macchion; Said Zahrai; Bengt Sunden; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical analysis; Gas quenching; modeling; CFD; gas mixtures; uniformity.; Numerisk analys; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on the numerical and theoretical studies of gas quenching in industrial furnaces. Gas quenching is the rapid cooling of metal pieces, aiming at forcing a phase transformation of the metal structure to improve its mechanical properties. READ MORE

  5. 5. Design of Internal Cooling Passages: Investigation of Thermal Performance of Serpentine Passages

    Author : Waseem Siddique; Torsten Fransson; Bengt Sundén; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Gas turbine; heat transfer; CFD; Serpentine passages; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Abstract : Gas turbines are used to convert thermal energy into mechanical energy. The thermal efficiency of the gas turbine is directly related to the turbine inlet temperature. READ MORE
