  2. 21. Heat transfer in falling film evaporation of black liquor - Experiments and theory

    Author : Miriam Johansson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; evaporator; black liquor; falling film; kraft pulp mill; Heat transfer; evaporation; viscosity; correlations; experimental; non-Newtonian;

    Abstract : Pulp and paper industry uses a large part of the total amount of energy in industry in Sweden. The evaporation plant has the major energy demand in the kraft pulp mill, which is the dominant type of chemical pulp mill. Previous studies have shown potential to decrease the live steam demand for the pulp process, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 22. Heat Transfer Aspects of Using Phase Change Material in Thermal Energy Storage Applications

    Author : Justin NingWei Chiu; Viktoria Martin; Luisa Cabeza; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal energy storage; comfort cooling; phase change materials; heat transfer; Thermal energy engineering; Termisk energiteknik; Other materials science; Övrig teknisk materialvetenskap; Environmental engineering; Miljöteknik; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Abstract : Innovative methods for providing sustainable heating and cooling through thermal energy storage (TES) have gained increasing attention as heating and cooling demands in the built environment continue to climb. As energy prices continue to soar and systems reach their maximal capacity, there is an urgent need for alternatives to alleviate peak energy use. READ MORE

  5. 23. Causes and consequences of blood parasite infections in birds

    Author : Martin Stjernman; Biodiversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Animal physiology; Djurfysiologi; Parasitologi människa och djur ; Parasitology human and animal ; maternal transfer; stabilising selection; parasite resistance; parasites; trade-off; cost of reproduction; Ficedula hypoleuca; pied flycatcher; Haemoproteus; blue tit; Parus caeruleus;

    Abstract : Parasites are ubiquitous and can cause significant fitness reductions to their hosts. Therefore, selection for the evolution of host resistance should be strong. However, resistance may be costly and should be traded-off against other fitness related traits. READ MORE

  6. 24. The monetary value of marine environmental change

    Author : Linus Hasselström; Cecilia Håkansson; Göran Finnveden; Tore Söderqvist; Carl-Johan Lagerkvist; KTH; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Contingent valuation; choice experiment; benefits transfer; cost-benefit analysis; ecosystem services; eutrophication; oil spills; Baltic Sea; Arctic; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

    Abstract : The marine ecosystems are fundamental for human welfare. A number of current environmental pressures need attention, and the formulation of management strategies requires information from a variety of analytical dimensions. The linkage between environmental change and resulting implications for human welfare is one such dimension. READ MORE

  7. 25. Design Aspects of Inductive Power Transfer Systems for Electric Vehicle Charging

    Author : Daniel Pehrman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; stray field measurements; shielding; electric vehicle charging; inductive power transfer; full-bridge resonant inverter; finite element method FEM ; series-parallel compensation; coupled inductors; series-series compensation; silicon carbide;

    Abstract : During the last decade the transition towards electric propelled vehicles has had an upswing and electric vehicle (EV) sales has increased steadily. This is much due to legislations on lowering emissions but also due to lower total cost of ownership. READ MORE
