1. Thermal insulation of the combustion chamber in a light duty diesel engine
Sammanfattning : Reduction of heat loss from the combustion chamber in an engine has great potential to decrease fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Research on thermal barrier coatings (TBC) has been performed since the early eighties to address this potential. LÄS MER
2. Heat Transfer Aspects of Using Phase Change Material in Thermal Energy Storage Applications
Sammanfattning : Innovative methods for providing sustainable heating and cooling through thermal energy storage (TES) have gained increasing attention as heating and cooling demands in the built environment continue to climb. As energy prices continue to soar and systems reach their maximal capacity, there is an urgent need for alternatives to alleviate peak energy use. LÄS MER
3. Experimental investigations of ageing of commercial BEV Li-ion batteries
Sammanfattning : The rapid development of lithium-ion batteries has enabled changes in widespread applications ranging from portable electronics to electric vehicles and large scale grid energy storage. However, battery ageing remain a challenge in all these applications, and this thesis seeks to contribute to the understanding of Li-ion battery degradation. LÄS MER
4. Modeling Diesel spray combustion using a Detailed Chemistry Approach
Sammanfattning : The rapid development of computer hardware during the past decade has contributed substantially to advances in almost all branches of science. Computer modeling is being applied to increasingly small physical scales and increasingly large domains, facilitating the generation of advanced phenomenological models and models based on first principles.
