  1. 6. Oxidation, Creep and Fatigue Synergies in Cast Materials for Exhaust Manifolds

    Författare :Shengmei Xiang; Joakim Odqvist; Baohua Zhu; Stefan Jonsson; Johan Ahlström; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fatigue; low-cycle fatigue; fatigue in an inert atmosphere; fatigue in a synthetic diesel exhaust atmosphere; corrosion-fatigue; creep-fatigue; high-temperature corrosion; high-temperature fatigue; synergistic effect; corrosion-fatigue synergy; creep-fatigue synergy; high-temperature alloys; fatigue damage; creep-fatigue damage; corrosion-fatigue damage; ductile cast iron; high-alloyed austenitic cast steel; thermal cycling; precipitation; aging.; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Materials Science and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : The future development of engines of heavy-duty vehicles towards reduced CO2 emission will increase the exhaust gas temperature and render the exhaust atmosphere more corrosive. The current service material of exhaust gas components - a ferritic ductile cast iron called SiMo51 - will soon meet its upper-temperature limit. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Deactivation of commercial three-way catalysts: effect of the thermal ageing

    Författare :Anna Fathali; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BET; methane production from E85; NOx reduction by methane; Rhodium; TWC; OSC; Automotive exhaust control; Palladium; Aging;

    Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis is a summary of my study on thermal deactivated commercial threeway catalysts (TWCs). The experiments were performed using gasoline and a E85 fuelmixture of 85 vol.% ethanol and 15 vol.% gasoline. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Development of a non-destructive field testing method for thermal assessment of district heating pipes

    Författare :Peter Lidén; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; heat losses; thermal status; valve; polyurethane; cooling method; non-destructive testing; thermal conductivity; district heating network;

    Sammanfattning : The thermal state of a district heating (DH) network governs the heat losses. It is a parameter considered if a change is to be made in the network. Heat losses are costly and economic aspects are important when planning for the maintenance or replacement of DH pipes. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Titania supported vanadium oxide catalysts in the NH3-SCR reaction: Effect of vanadium loading, promoters and aging

    Författare :Alexander Nellessen; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nb; aging; Ce; infrared spectroscopy; VOx; NH3-SCR; vanadium oxide;

    Sammanfattning : Emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from combustion processes in mobile sources attract significant attention due to their role as a major source of atmospheric contamination, along with health risks and environmental issues. Since combustion processes in heavy-duty vehicles are expected to be used for a foreseeable future, many efforts have been invested in a suitable deNOx technology. LÄS MER

  7. 10. Dynamic Thermal Rating for Improved Utilization of Wind Farm Export Systems : A Methodology for Improving Load Profile Estimation of Wind Farm Export Transformers

    Författare :Zhongtian Li; Patrik Hilber; Tor Laneryd; Stefan Ivanell; Nguyen Nga; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; dynamic thermal rating; wake effect; turbine availability; transformer lifetime; transformer aging; dynamisk termisk klassificering; väckningseffekt; turbintillgänglighet; transformatorlivslängd; transformatoråldring; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : The power system components connected to renewable energy sources, such as transformers, are often oversized and conservatively loaded. The design of transformers normally ignores the intermittent nature of the connected renewable energy sources (e.g. solar, wind). LÄS MER
