  1. 16. Exhaust Heat Utilisation and Losses in Internal Combustion Engines with Focus on the Gas Exchange System

    Författare :Habib Aghaali; Hans-Erik Ångström; Carlos Guardiola; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbocharger; heat transfer; heat loss; exhaust heat utilisation; waste heat recovery; turbocompound; divided exhaust period; internal combustion engine; gas exchange; pumping loss; variable valve timing; WHR; DEP; Turbo; värmeöverföring; värmeförluster; avgasvärme utnyttjande; förluster vid värmeåtervinning; turbocompound; delad avgasperiod; förbränningsmotor; gasväxling; pumpningsförlust; variabla ventiltider; WHR; DEP; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Exhaust gas energy recovery should be considered in improving fuel economy of internal combustion engines. A large portion of fuel energy is wasted through the exhaust of internal combustion engines. Turbocharger and turbocompound can, however, recover part of this wasted heat. LÄS MER

  2. 17. MULTICOMPONENT SPRAY-TURBULENCE INTERACTION

    Författare :Vignesh Pandian Muthuramalingam; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gasoline diesel blend; CFD; multicomponent fuel sprays; ethanol iso-octane blend; Stochastic Blob and Bubble VSB2 spray model; direct injection engines;

    Sammanfattning : Blended fuels are gaining importance in automotive industry owing to stringent legislations for emissions. It is important to understand the fuel spray formed as a consequence of injecting blended fuels into the engine (for direct injection engines) and also the influence of fuel spray on combustion properties.

  3. 18. Wheel–Rail Impact Loads and Track Settlement in Railway Crossings

    Författare :Xin Li; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; vehicle--track dynamics; wheel--rail contact; track settlement; material modelling of ballast; Switches and crossings; turnout; cyclic loading; Green s functions;

    Sammanfattning : Turnouts (Switches & Crossings, S&C) are critical components of a railway track requiring regular maintenance and generating high life cycle costs. A main driver for the high maintenance costs is the need to repair and replace switch rails and crossings as these components are subjected to a severe load environment. LÄS MER

  4. 19. Long freight trains and long-term rail surface damage

    Författare :Visakh V Krishna; Sebastian Stichel; Mats Berg; Carlos Casanueva; João Pombo; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; track friendliness; rail surface damage; multi-body simulation; longitudinal train dynamics; track maintenance; rolling contact fatigue; wear; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik;

    Sammanfattning : Track damage due to progressively increasing tonnage, especially due to longer and heavier freight trains, is one of the major problems faced in the European rail sector. In this context, to stay competitive, optimal track maintenance practices, track-friendly vehicles and safe operations of long freight trains assume prominence. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Industrial framework for hot-spot identification and verification in automotive composite structures

    Författare :Henrik Molker; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Global - local; Failure initiation; Analysis framework; Carbon fibre composite; Non crimp-fabric; Orthotropic material; Sub-modelling;

    Sammanfattning : The automotive industry needs to reduce energy consumption to decrease environmental impact. This can be achieved by reducing the weight of cars, which would consequently reduce the energy consumption and emission of greenhouse gases. LÄS MER
