  1. 36. CFD Modeling of an Alcohol-Diesel Direct-Injection Dual-Liquid-Fuel Engine using OpenFOAM

    Författare :Andreas Nygren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Renewable Fuels; Dual-Fuel Combustion; CFD; Spray Modeling;

    Sammanfattning : Legislation for heavy duty combustion engines are becoming more stringent. To keep up with the legislation, new engine technology is required. Furthermore, renewable fuels can also be used together with new engine technology to further reduce emissions. LÄS MER

  2. 37. Particulate Formation in Gasoline Direct Injection Engines

    Författare :Sreelekha Etikyala; 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; PM; Volatileorganic compounds; Gasoline Direct Injection; Particulate Number; Alternate fuels;

    Sammanfattning : Gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines are facing a great challenge because of the need to comply with increasingly stringent emission regulations while improving fuel economy. GDI engines are popularly known for their high fuel efficiency (by the standards of gasoline engines) and low emissions, enabling higher compression ratios and thus increased volumetric efficiency.

  3. 38. Modeling Photofunctional Transition Metal Complexes

    Författare :Iria Bolano Losada; NanoLund: Centre for Nanoscience; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; density functional theory; earth-abundant; molecular dynamics; quantum chemistry; photosensitizer; photophysics; photochemistry; solar fuels; solar energy conversion; transition metal complexes;

    Sammanfattning : Transition metal complexes play a crucial role in solar energy conversion. These coordination compounds have promising applications in dye-sensitized solar cells and photocatalysis, with particular interest in solar fuel production. LÄS MER

  4. 39. Fabrication and Testing of Doped Uranium Nitride as an Accident Tolerant Fuel Alternative

    Författare :Luis Guillermo Gonzalez Fonseca; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; internal gelation; density; Uranium nitride; sintering; microspheres; doping; waterproofing.; ATF;

    Sammanfattning : Nuclear energy is a carbon-free energy source often considered less harmful to the environment than fossil fuels. However, accidents have shown that there are some safety concerns regarding nuclear energy that need to be continuously assessed and further improved. LÄS MER

  5. 40. CO2 Capture using Chemical-Looping Combustion – Operational Experience with Gaseous and Solid Fuels

    Författare :Carl Johan Linderholm; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nickel oxide; coal; natural gas; chemical-looping combustion CLC ; oxygen carrier; CO2 capture; manganese ore; interconnected fluidized beds; ilmenite;

    Sammanfattning : CO2 capture and storage has been proposed as an alternative to mitigate global warming. Chemical-looping combustion (CLC) is an unmixed combustion concept where fuel and combustion air are kept separate by means of an oxygen carrier, and the CO2 capture is inherently achieved. LÄS MER
