1. 21. Creep modelling of particle strengthened steels

   Författare :Hans Magnusson; Rolf Sandström; Göran Engberg; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Particle strengthening; dislocation climb; ferritic steels; dislocation evolution; creep rate modelling; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : Materials to be used in thermal power plants have to resist creep deformation for time periods up to 30 years. The role of alloying elements for creep strength of 9-12% Cr steels is analysed. The creep strength in these steels relies on minor additions of alloying elements. LÄS MER

   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; autotrophic metabolism; cyanobacteria; microbial metabolic engineering; computational systems biology; biochemical thermodynamics; kinetic modelling; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

   Sammanfattning : Earth has entered a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene, defined by humanity’s impact on the environment with increased emissions of CO2 due to burning of fossil resource as a major contributor. To ensure a sustainable future, humanity has to move towards a circular economy, where released CO2 is re-captured and turned into resources. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Truck transport offers a versatile way to ship goods in regional, long haulage and urban applications. However, the heavy truck sector accounts for 6 % of total greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union. Therefore, there is a need for a substantial reduction of these emissions to secure the sustainability of Earth for future generations. LÄS MER

5. 24. 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.
