  1. 1. Determination of the thermal conductivity of the insulation in district heating mains : Field measurements

    Author : Karin Margaretha Borgström; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; district heating main; field measurements; thermal conductivity; measuring method; heat flow measurement; heat flux sensor; Material physics with surface physics; Materialfysik med ytfysik;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the development of a measurement method for determination in the field of the thermal conductivity of the insulation in buried district heating mains. The thermal conductivity of the insulation is calculated from the measured value of the radial heat flow through the heating main, the measured temperature difference across the insulation, and the dimensions of the heating main.

  3. 3. Principles and Models of Solid Fuel Combustion

    Author : Henrik Thunman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wood; single particle; modelling; fluidized bed; thermochemical conversion; fixed bed; coal; thermal conductivity; fuel loading; measurements; thermochemical properties; biofuels; combustion; grate;

    Abstract : Combustion of solid fuels stands for a substantial part of the heat and power production in the world. In this thesis different aspects related to the thermochemical conversion of solid fuels in fluidized and fixed beds are treated, such as: the combustion temperature of a fuel particle related to the surrounding temperature in a fluidized bed combustor (FBC); the fuel loading in a FBC; a transient description of the conversion of non-spherical fuel particles; the thermochemical properties and composition of volatiles released from wood; the thermal conductivity of wood during different stages of conversion; the modelling of a grate furnace; the general combustion behaviour of a fixed bed on a reciprocating or a travelling grate; and finally, the design and construction of experimental units for investigation of combustion in a fixed bed.

  4. 4. Functional Textile Coatings Containing Flake-shaped Fillers : investigations on selected optical and electrical properties

    Author : Veronica Malm; Ilda Kazani; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : Flakes; fillers; textile coating; properties; multilayered mica; effect pigment; angle-dependent colour change; metals; conductivity; resistance measurements; e-textiles; flexibility; durability; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the manufacturing and characterisation of functionalised textile coatings containing different types of flake-shaped fillers with angle-dependent colour-changing and electrically conductive properties, respectively. Common benefits of these types of flakes are their high aspect ratio, which offers low filler loading with high functional performance. READ MORE

  5. 5. Diagnosis of Moisture in Transformer Insulation - Application of frequency domain spectroscopy

    Author : Chandima Ekanayake; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; moisture content; diagnostic methods; modelling; polarisation depolarisation currents PDC ; frequency domain spectroscopy FDS ; dielectric response measurements; Oil-impregnated pressboard paper insulation; Karl Fischer titration KFT ; conductivity; ageing;

    Abstract : This thesis presents application of dielectric response measurements for identifying condition of high voltage insulation in power transformers. Results of such measurements, incorporated with different modelling techniques, allow to estimate moisture content in solid part of transformer insulation. READ MORE
