  2. 21. Deformations and stresses in butt-welding of plates : numerical simulation and experimental verification

    Author : Lars-Erik Lindgren; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Material Mechanics; Materialmekanik;

    Abstract : Deformation and stresses in butt-welding of plates were studied. The work includes numerical simulation and experimental verification. The simulations were performed by use of the finite element method. Temperature dependence of material properties and phase transformations were considered. READ MORE

  4. 22. Testing large samples of PCM in water calorimeter and PCM used in room applications by night-air cooling

    Author : Rickard Bellander; Ove Söderström; Gudni Jóhannesson; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; phase-change material; PCM; water calorimeter; air heat exchanger; durability; thermal properties; heat capacity; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Abstract : The latent-heat-storage capacity in Phase-Change Materials can be used for storing or releasing energy within a small temperature interval. Upon the phase transition taking place in a narrow temperature span, the material takes up or releases more energy compared to sensible heat storage. READ MORE

    Abstract : Gasfasympning är en del i den moderna strategin för optimering av den molekylära designen av biomaterial. Kovalent ytmodifiering med hydrofila vinylmonomerer och koppling med bioaktiva grupper används för att öka biokompatibiliteten och bioaktiviteten hos biomaterialen.. READ MORE

  6. 24. High-Pressure Microfluidics

    Author : Sam Ogden; Klas Hjort; Greger Thornell; Wouter van der Wijngaart; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : phase change; actuator; valve; pump; supercritical fluid; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot mikrosystemteknik; Engineering Science with specialization in Microsystems Technology;

    Abstract : In this thesis, some fundamentals and possible applications of high-pressure microfluidics have been explored. Furthermore, handling fluids at high pressures has been addressed, specifically by creating and characterizing strong microvalves and pumps.A variety of microstructuring techniques was used to realize these microfluidic devices, e.g. READ MORE

  7. 25. Latent Heat Thermal Energy Storage for Indoor Comfort Control

    Author : NingWei Justin Chiu; Viktoria Martin; Motoi Yamaha; KTH; []

    Abstract : Equating Earth’s existence to 24 hours, we, the Homo sapiens, came about in the last four seconds. Fossil fuel came to our knowledge with mass extraction dating from the Industrial Revolution two centuries ago, in other words 4 milliseconds out of Earth’s 24-hour equivalent lifetime. READ MORE
