2. 11. Study of solidification and volume change in lamellar cast iron with respect to defect formation mechanisms

   Author : Péter Svidró; Pär Jönsson; Pål Schmidt; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; lamellar cast iron; shrinkage porosity; solidification; volumetric change; dendrite coherency; inter-dendritic space;

   Abstract : Lamellar cast iron is a very important technical alloy and the most used material in the casting production, and especially in the automotive industry which is the major consumer. Beside the many great properties, it is inclined to form casting defects of which some can be prevented, and some may be repaired subsequently. READ MORE

4. 12. On the Design Considerations for Thermal Energy Storage with Phase Change Materials: Material Characterization and Modelling

   Author : Pepe Tan; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Phase Change Materials; Simulation; T-History; Thermal Energy Storage;

   Abstract : Integrating thermal energy storage (TES) technologies to a process enables storing and releasing thermal energy on demand. Depending on the implementation, this may lead to economic and ecological improvements, e.g. by shifting the peak demand to off-peak hours or by increasing the share of utilized renewable energy.

   Author : Shaozheng Ji; Jonas Weissenrieder; James Gardner; Oscar Tjernberg; Fabrizio Carbone; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ultrafast electron microscope; coherent shear phonon; photo-induced phase transition; 1T-TaSe2; Td-WTe2; charge density wave; ultrasnabbt elektronmikroskop; koherent skjuvphonon; fotoinducerad fasövergång; 1T-TaSe2; Td-WTe2; laddningsdensitetsvåg; Material and Nano Physics; Material- och nanofysik;

   Abstract : Ultrafast electron microscope (UEM), a combination of transmission electron microscopy and laser-based pump-probe techniques, facilitates ultrafast imaging, diffraction, and electron-spectroscopy with high spatial resolution. The unique advantages of UEM enable local ultrafast dynamic studies in materials, nano-system, and biology. READ MORE

6. 14. Integrating Latent Heat Storage into Residential Heating Systems : A study from material and component characterization to system analysis

   Author : Tianhao Xu; Samer Sawalha; Björn Palm; Justin NingWei Chiu; Tianshu GE; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; phase change material; thermal energy storage; heat pump; load shifting; space heating; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : Latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems can be coupled with heat pump (HP) systems to realize heat load shifting on demand side. With phase change material (PCM), well designed LHTES components exhibit high storage energy density and thus have large potentials to be integrated in residence where a compact energy storage solution is needed.
