2. 1. High-Capacity Cool Thermal Energy Storage for Peak Shaving - a Solution for Energy Challenges in the 21st century

   Author : Bo He; KTH; []
   Keywords : Comfort cooling; peak shaving; phase change materials PCM ; cool thermal energy storage; DSC; phase change temperature; the heat of fusion; phase equilibrium; phase diagram.;

   Abstract : Due to climatic change, increasing thermal loads inbuildings and rising living standards, comfort cooling inbuildings is becoming increasingly important and the demand forcomfort cooling is expanding very quickly around the world. Theincreased cooling demand results in a peak in electrical powerdemand during the hottest summer hours. READ MORE

4. 2. Sorption Microcalorimetry: Method Development and Applications

   Author : Natalia Markova; Fysikalisk kemi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; lyotropic phase transition; hydrate formation; crystallization; sorption enthalpy; sorption isotherm; water vapor; isothermal heat conduction calorimetry; sorption; Physical chemistry; Fysikalisk kemi;

   Abstract : A double twin isothermal microcalorimeter has been designed and its performance has been tested experimentally. The calorimeter makes it possible to continuously and isothermally scan a solid sample in a broad range of relative vapor pressures at near-equilibrium conditions. READ MORE

5. 3. Development, validation and application of an effective convectivity model for simulation of melt pool heat transfer in a light water reactor lower head

   Author : Chi Thanh Tran; Truc-Nam Dinh; Florian Fichot; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; light water reactor; hypothetical severe accident; accident progression; accident scenario; core melt pool; heat transfer; turbulent natural convection; heat transfer coefficient; phase change; mushy zone; crust; lower plenum; analytical model; effective convectivity model; CFD simulation.; Other physics; Övrig fysik;

   Abstract : Severe accidents in a Light Water Reactor (LWR) have been a subject of the research for the last three decades. The research in this area aims to further understanding of the inherent physical phenomena and reduce the uncertainties surrounding their quantification, with the ultimate goal of developing models that can be applied to safety analysis of nuclear reactors.

6. 4. The Effective Convectivity Model for Simulation and Analysis of Melt Pool Heat Transfer in a Light Water Reactor Pressure Vessel Lower Head

   Author : Chi Thanh Tran; Tomas Lefvert; Harri Tuomisto; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; light water reactor; hypothetical severe accident; accident progression; accident scenario; core melt pool; heat transfer; turbulent natural convection; heat transfer coefficient; phase change; mushy zone; crust; lower plenum; analytical model; effective convectivity model; CFD simulation; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik;

   Abstract : Severe accidents in a Light Water Reactor (LWR) have been a subject of intense research for the last three decades. The research in this area aims to reach understanding of the inherent physical phenomena and reduce the uncertainties in their quantification, with the ultimate goal of developing models that can be applied to safety analysis of nuclear reactors, and to evaluation of the proposed accident management schemes for mitigating the consequences of severe accidents.

7. 5. Biophysical characterization of protein-protein interactions involving intrinsically disordered proteins

   Author : Ida Nyqvist; Jakob Dogan; Ivarsson Ylva; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Intrinsically disordered proteins; Protein-protein interactions; Disorder-to-order transition; Rate-limiting transition state; Ф-value analysis; NMR relaxation; Side-chain dynamics; Backbone dynamics; Conformational entropy change; Biophysics; biofysik;

   Abstract : Intrinsically disordered proteins and regions (IDPs/Rs) are proteins that do not form stable and well-defined structures in their free states but rather occupy an ensemble of conformations that change over time while still staying functional. They are prevalent in the eukaryotic proteome and are involved in various vital processes in the cell where they often interact with their binding partners through coupled binding and folding reactions.
