6. Dynamic Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Modelling for Non-steady State Simulation of System Applications
Sammanfattning : Most of the world's energy generation is based on fossil fuels such as coal and oil, which already today but even more in the future, will cause various problems. One issue is their limited availability, which stands in conflict to the increasing global energy consumption. LÄS MER
7. Polymeric Materials for Bearing Applications : Tribological Studies in Lubricated Conditions
Sammanfattning : One of the most important demands in hydropower and other industries today stems from the emphasis on preserving the environment. Usage of mineral and synthetic oils in sliding bearings of hydropower plants raises concerns about the environmental impact of these lubricants in case of spillage into downstream water. LÄS MER
8. Small-Scale Production of Fuel-Cell Hydrogen
Sammanfattning : The work presented here aims at producing hydrogen for proton-exchange fuel-cell applications from hydrocarbons. This thesis describes an integrated catalytic converter comprising a steam-reforming reactor (heat of reaction supplied by catalytic combustion), a water-gas shift reactor and a preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide reactor, and the work performed on the fuel processing catalysts therein.

9. Electrode Degradation in Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells
Sammanfattning : To mitigate the climate crisis, and reduce carbon emissions from e.g. the transport and energy sectors, hydrogen has been proposed to be used as an environmentally friendly alternative energy carrier. LÄS MER
10. Vibrant bodies of swirling flow : On the limits of mechanical power transformation
Sammanfattning : This thesis pinpoints the intertwined nature of inertia. A vibrant body of a swirling flow is neither just a flow nor a body. It is both. LÄS MER
