  2. 1. Infrared Emittance of Paper : Method Development, Measurements and Application

    Author : Caroline Hyll; Lars Mattsson; Hannes Vomhoff; Carl-Gustaf Ribbing; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Emittance; Emissivity; Thermography; Paper; Sheet; Papermaking; Paper mechanics; Moisture; Material properties; Reflectance; Transmittance; Absorptance; Infrared; Mid-wavelength infrared; MWIR; Long-wavelength infrared; LWIR; Angle-resolved; Directional;

    Abstract : Thermography is a non-destructive technique which uses infrared radiation to obtain the temperature distribution of an object. The technique is increasingly used in the pulp and paper industry. To convert the detected infrared radiation to a temperature, the emittance of the material must be known. READ MORE

  4. 2. Preparation and Characterization of Sputter Deposited Spectrally Selective Solar Absorbers

    Author : Kristina Gelin; Ewa Wäckelgård; Arne Roos; Björn Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Engineering physics; spectrally selective solar absorber; thermal emittance; solar absorptance; sputter deposition; infrared reflectance; Teknisk fysik; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik;

    Abstract : The optical efficiency of a commercially available sputter deposited spectrally selective solar absorber was improved. The main purposes were to decrease the thermal emittance, increase the solar absorbtance of the absorber and to protect the substrate from degradation due to environmental influence. READ MORE

  5. 3. Image-based quantitative infrared analysis and microparticle characterisation for pulp and paper applications

    Author : Kari Hyll; Lars Mattsson; Hannes Vomhoff; Samuel Schabel; KTH; []

    Abstract : Measurements of process variations and particle morphology are widely employed in the pulp and paper industry. Two techniques with high potential, infrared thermography and microparticle characterisation, are mainly used qualitatively. READ MORE

  6. 4. Solution-Chemically Derived Spectrally Selective Solar Absorbers : With System Perspectives on Solar Heating

    Author : Tobias Boström; Ewa Wäckelgård; Gunnar Westin; Björn Karlsson; Peter Lund; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Materials science; solar; thermal; absorber; selective; chemical; Materialvetenskap;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of two parts, one dominating part concerning spectrally selective solar absorbers and one dealing with thermal solar systems. The appended papers I to VIII concern the solar absorber part, papers dealing with the systems part have not been included in the thesis. READ MORE

  7. 5. Energy Efficient Window Systems. Effects on Energy Use and Daylight in Buildings

    Author : Helena Bülow-Hübe; Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; []
