  1. 1. Slag Cleaning of a Reduced Iron Silicate Slag by Settling : Influence of Process Parameters and Slag Modification on Copper Content

    Author : Jenny Isaksson; Caisa Samuelsson; Andreas Lennartsson; Anton Andersson; Pekka Taskinen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Copper losses; matte; speiss; fayalite slag; temperature; settling time; solid phases; industrial trial; CaO modification; Process Metallurgy; Processmetallurgi;

    Abstract : During the pyrometallurgical extraction of copper, a significant part of the copper is lost with discard slag, which decreases profits, overall copper recovery, and efficiency of raw material usage. Smelting furnace slag usually has a copper content that is close to or higher than that of copper ores. READ MORE

  2. 2. On Inter-bar Currents in Induction Motors with Cast Aluminium and Cast Copper Rotors

    Author : Alexander Stening; Chandur Sadarangani; Ola Aglén; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Induction motors; Inter-bar currents; Copper rotors; Aluminium rotors; Starting torque; Asynchronous torques; Starting current; Stray losses; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a study of the effects of inter-bar currents on inductionmotor starting performance and stray-load losses. The work is focused on theperformance differences between aluminium and copper casted rotors.A method to predict the stator current when starting direct-on-line isdeveloped. READ MORE

  3. 3. Analysis and Reduction of Parasitic Effects in Induction Motors With Die-Cast Rotors

    Author : Alexander Stening; Chandur Sadarangani; Nicola Bianchi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Aluminium rotors; asynchronous torques; copper rotors; die-cast rotors; induction machines; inter-bar currents; modulated rotors; starting torque; stray losses; synchronous torques;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a study of inter-bar current effects on induction motors with die-cast aluminium and die-cast copper rotors. The parasitic effects introduced by these currents are analyzed and possible solutions to these problems are presented. This is realized by developing analytical tools for the simulation of inter-bar current effects. READ MORE

    Abstract : In the process of designing an electric power supply system for an aircraft, parameters like low weight and low losses are important. Reliability, robustness and low cost are other important factors. READ MORE

  5. 5. Hydraulic transport of mineral and ore products : friction losses of stratified flows at high solids concentrations

    Author : Åsa Sundqvist; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vattenteknik; Water Resources Engineering;

    Abstract : The overall objective of the work presented in this thesis was to investigate the hydraulic transport of mineral and ore products with regard to friction losses in horizontal pipelines at high solids concentrations. In detail, the objectives are to present and examine experimental pilotscale and large-scale friction loss results, and to investigate the performance of a scaling relationship for stratified slurry flows with regard to the effects of pipe diameter and solids concentration.
