  1. 1. Thermodynamic Cycles using Carbon Dioxide as Working Fluid : CO2 transcritical power cycle study

    Author : Chen Yang; Lundqvist Per; Carlos Infante Ferreria; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The interest in utilizing the energy in low‐grade heat sources and waste heat is increasing. There is an abundance of such heat sources, but their utilization today is insufficient, mainly due to the limitations of the conventional power cycles in such applications, such as low efficiency, bulky size or moisture at the expansion outlet (e.g. READ MORE

  2. 2. Realise the Potential! : Cost Effective and Energy Efficient District Heating in European Urban Areas

    Abstract : This thesis concerns a mechatronic system, designed and developed for the forest industry, to trace logs from forest to sawmill. The research is a key part of a large research project launched by the EU in 2006 called the Indisputable Key project. READ MORE

  5. 5. Reduced models for flows in IC-engines

    Author : Niklas Winkler; Hans-Erik Ångström; Angelo Onorati; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The finite response time of the turbocharger is the most notable effect of transient operation on a turbocharged diesel engine. To fulfill future emission requirements, high amounts of transient EGR will be required even though after-treatment devices are being used. READ MORE
