  1. 16. Fuel choice, fuel switching and improved cook stoves in Vietnamese households: Analysis, models and proposals for new solutions

    Författare :Niklas Vahlne; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fuel choice; fuel ladder; cooking; Vietnam; developing; improved stoves; rural households;

    Sammanfattning : A majority of rural households in the developing world use solid biomass fuels for cooking. This use has severe negative health effects, is often either expensive or time consuming, and contributes to global warming. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Modelling of Multicomponent Fuel Sprays

    Författare :Vignesh Pandian Muthuramalingam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; multicomponent fuel sprays; diesel and gasoline engine conditions; CFD; resolving counterbore; GDI injector; resolving injector orifice; secondary breakup; stochastic blob and bubble model; differential evaporation;

    Sammanfattning : The use of fuel blends (conventional fuels blended with renewable ones) has gained importance in the automotive industry as an option to reduce emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. In order to make the fuel blends commercially viable, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is used to complement the experiments (done on engines or spray chambers) by providing fundamental insight into spray formation.

  3. 18. Evaluating Cathode Catalysts in the Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell

    Författare :Henrik Ekström; Göran Lindbergh; Anders Lundblad; Anthony Kucernak; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fuel cell; humidity; model electrodes; Nafion; oxygen reduction; PEMFC; platinum; polymer electrolyte; thin film evaporation; titanium oxide; bränslecell; fuktighet; modellelektroder; Nafion; PEMFC; platina; polymerelektrolyt; syrereduktion; tunnfilmsförångning; titanoxid; Electrochemistry; Elektrokemi;

    Sammanfattning : The polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) converts the chemical energy of hydrogen and oxygen (air) into usable electrical energy. At the cathode (the positive electrode), a considerable amount of platinum is generally required to catalyse the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). LÄS MER

  4. 19. Energy system perspectives on transport biofuel policies – a modelling analysis
