  1. 1. Renewable gas in a Swedish context

    Author : Laura Malek; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Keywords : synthetic natural gas; biomass; gasification; gas grid; techno-economic; tar; ammonia;

    Abstract : In order to increase the use of sustainable energy in Sweden, it is necessary to substitute fossil energy carriers with renewable counterparts. Synthetic natural gas (SNG) produced from renewable resources via biomass gasification and methanation could replace a proportion of the natural gas used in Sweden. READ MORE

  2. 2. A Gap in the Grid : Attempts to introduce natural gas in Sweden 1967-1991

    Author : Anna Åberg; Arne Kaijser; Per Högselius; Erland Mårald; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; natural gas; energy policy; infrastructure planning; history of technology; Sweden; Northern Europe; risk; project planning; Denmark; Norway; Soviet Union; Germany; energy systems; energy history; fossil fuels;

    Abstract : This thesis follows the process of introducing natural gas in Sweden and the construction of a Northern European gas grid from 1967 to 1991. Natural gas is a relatively unnoticed fuel in Sweden today, but this relative anonymity stands in contrast to an extensive historical activity that has taken place behind the scenes of Swedish energy policy.

  3. 3. Catalytic Combustion in Gas Turbines : Experimental Study on Gasified Biomass Utilization

    Author : Arturo Manrique Carrera; Torsten H. Fransson; Gianpiero Groppi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Abstract : Environmental and geopolitical concerns encourage societies towards the utilization of renewable energy sources (RES). Photovoltaic and wind power can produce electricity directly, although their intermittent characteristic negatively affects the security and safety of the energy supply chain; moreover, in order to be viable it is necessary to establish energy storage systems and to find mechanisms to adapt the power distribution grid to larger production variability.

  4. 4. Numerical Investigation of Some Heat Transfer Topics with Relevance to Gas Turbines

    Author : Arash Saidi; Värmeöverföring; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vakuumteknik; Maskinteknik; vacuum technology; vibration and acoustic engineering; hydraulics; Mechanical engineering; plasma; fluiddynamik; Gaser; Ribbed ducts; intercoolers; EASM; EVM; gas turbine; CFD; heat exchangers; extended surfaces; offset strip fin; heat transfer enhancement; Thermal engineering; applied thermodynamics; Termisk teknik; hydraulik; termodynamik; Gases; plasmas; fluid dynamics; vibrationer; akustik;

    Abstract : The first part of the investigation is related to the heat transfer and fluid flow problem inside ribbed ducts with a square cross section. The typical applications of this problem are in the cooling of gas turbine blades and guiding vanes. The second part is related to application of intercoolers in gas turbine systems. READ MORE

  5. 5. Synergy between Photovoltaic Power Generation and Electric Vehicle Charging in Urban Energy Systems : Optimization Models for Smart Charging and Vehicle-to-Grid

    Author : Reza Fachrizal; Joakim Munkhammar; Mahmoud Shepero; Joakim Widén; Johan Driesen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electric Vehicles; Photovoltaics; Smart Charging; Vehicle-to-Grid; Urban Energy Systems; Load Matching; Self-Consumption; Optimization; Engineering Science with specialization in Civil Engineering and Built Environment; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot byggteknik och byggd miljö;

    Abstract : Cities are responsible for around 75% of global primary energy use and 70% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with buildings and urban mobility being two key contributors. Actions to reduce GHG emissions have been promoted and implemented in many countries in the world. READ MORE
