1. Efficiency factors for space heating system in buildings
Abstract : The thesis focuses on the efficiency of the space heating system. In particular, the efficiency factors measure the efficiency of thermal zone. The efficiency factors measures how the energy is used in a space heating. READ MORE

2. Quantum-Dot Heat Engines
Abstract : This thesis explores the possibilities of using quantum dots (QDs) in nanoscale energy har- vesters converting heat into electrical energy, i.e. heat engines. From a theory perspective, these possibilities have been investigated for almost two decades, and interest in them seem to continuously increase over time. READ MORE

3. Clothing Evaporative Resistance: Its Measurements and Application in Prediction of Heat Strain
Abstract : Clothing evaporative resistance is one of the most important inputs for both the modelling and for standards dealing with thermal comfort and heat stress. It might be determined on guarded hotplates, on sweating manikins or even on human subjects. READ MORE

4. A weak space-time formulation for the linear stochastic heat equation
Abstract : The topic covered in this thesis is the introduction of a new formulation for the linear stochastic heat equation driven by additive noise, based on the space-time variational formulation for its deterministic counterpart. Having a variational formulation allows the use of the so called inf-sup theory in order to obtain results of existence and uniqueness in a relatively simple way. READ MORE

5. Heat and Mass Transfer in Built Structures - Numerical Analyses
Abstract : Heat and mass transport processes are often present simultaneously in built structures in building applications. The emphasis of this thesis is to contribute to knowledge about predicting the effects of combined heat and mass transport in built structures. READ MORE
