  1. 1. Gas-filled, flat plate solar collectors

    Författare :Johan Vestlund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechanical stresses; collector material; heated cavity; Modelling; Solar collectors;

    Sammanfattning : This work treats the thermal and mechanical performances of gas-filled, flat plate solar collectors in order to achieve a better performance than that of air filled collectors. The gases examined are argon, krypton and xenon which all have lower thermal conductivity than air. The absorber is formed as a tray connected to the glass. LÄS MER

  4. 3. On optimization of natural convection flows

    Författare :Clio Saglietti; Dan S. Henningson; Kurt Maute; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Natural convection cooling; topology optimization; flow optimization; heat sink; conjugate heat transfer; differentially heated cavity; optimal initial disturbances; adjoint optimization;

    Sammanfattning : Two different techniques are presented for enhancing the thermal  performance of natural convection cooled heat sinks. The physics is  described by solving the conjugate heat transfer problem with a  spectral element method. The temperature distribution is computed in  two sub-domains, whose solution is then conjugated. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Applications of Microwave Heating of Foods

    Författare :Birgitta Raaholt; RISE; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; modelling of microwave heating; microwave-assisted HTST processing; product quality.; heat transfer; microwave heating; microwave oven; heating uniformity; microwave cavity; tubular microwave in-flow processing;

    Sammanfattning : AbstractMicrowave heating of foods offers rapid and flexible heating both for consumer and industrial applications, with several advantages, such as reduced processing time (due to volumetric heating and reduced coming-up times (heating time required to reach the desired target temperature), selective heating, increased process flexibility and efficient heating (volumetric heating of the food does not require heating of a surrounding medium or package). However, successful installations requireknowledge in process design. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Topology optimization of transitional flows

    Författare :Harrison Nobis; Dan Henningson; Philipp Schlatter; Paolo Luchini; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Direct Numerical Simulation; Topology Optimization; Laminar– Turbulent Transition; Spectral Element Method; Direkt numerisk simulering; topologioptimering; laminär–turbulent omslag; spektralelementmetod; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is concerned with the application of topology optimization in thedesign of structures that control fluids. A framework is developed in the high-order Spectral Element Method (SEM) code Nek5000, extending Nek5000 fromits original capabilities, performing Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS), toperforming density-based topology optimization.
