  1. 1. Clothing Evaporative Resistance: Its Measurements and Application in Prediction of Heat Strain

    Författare :Faming Wang; Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; thermal manikin; clothing ensemble; evaporative resistance; localised evaporative resistance; thermophysiological response; heat stress; heat strain; the Predicted Heat Strain PHS model;

    Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Investigation of Thermal Performance of Cylindrical Heatpipes Operated with Nanofluids

    Författare :Morteza Ghanbarpourgeravi; Rahmatollah Khodabandeh; Björn Palm; Oronzio Manca; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Nanofluid; heat pipe; thermal resistance; heat transfer coefficient; evaporator; condenser; wick; porous layer; heat flux; inclination angle; thermal conductivity; viscosity; Energiteknik; Energy Technology;

    Sammanfattning : Nanofluids as an innovative class of heat transfer fluids created by dispersing nanometre-sizedmetallic or non-metallic particles in conventional heat transfer fluids displayed the potential toimprove the thermophysical properties of the heat transfer fluids. The main purpose of this study is toinvestigate the influence of the use of nanofluids on two-phase heat transfer, particularly on thethermal performance of the heat pipes. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Land surface heat exchange over snow and frozen soil

    Författare :David Gustafsson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Surface energy balance; Snow; Boreal forest; SVAT models; Eddy-correlation Measurements; Latent heat flux; Sensible heat flux; Net radiation; Soil temperature; Aerodynamic roughness; Surface resistance; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

    Sammanfattning : The energy exchange in the soil-snow-vegetation-atmospheresystem was studied to improve the quantitative knowledge of thegoverning processes. The lack of such knowledge contributes tothe uncertainty in the applicability of many existing modelsindependent of the temporal or spatial scale. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Cellulose-fiber-based thermal insulation materials with fungal resistance, improved water resistance and reaction-to-fire properties

    Författare :Chao Zheng; Monica Ek; Dongfang Li; Lars Wågberg; Folke Björk; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; biorefinery; birch bark; cellulose; reaction-to-fire properties; fungal resistance; thermal insulation; water resistance; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Thermal insulation materials made from natural fibrous materials, such as cellulose fibers, have advantages over others from a sustainability point of view. However, cellulosic materials are generally prone to mold and absorb moisture, and these have negative effects on the insulation properties, the durability of insulation materials, and interior air quality.

  7. 5. Thermoelectric Ba8Ga16Ge30 clathrates for waste heat recovery

    Författare :Daniel Cederkrantz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thermal stability; substitution; thermal conductivity; Seebeck coefficient; electrical resistance; Clathrates; Ba8Ga16Ge30; waste heat recovery; semiconductors;

    Sammanfattning : The modern, highly industrialized, society of today requires huge amounts of energy to function. This has resulted in a heavy dependence on the very energy efficient fossil fuels, a source of energy which of course is not infinite and we are slowly approaching the day when oil runs out. LÄS MER
