  1. 1. Microstructures and Compressive Strength of Lake Ice in Sweden A structural Documentation and Compressive Strength Analysis of Lake Ice Cores from Uppsala, using the SonReb Method

    Master-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Julia Ladefoged; [2023-08-18]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Lake ice have been utilized by humans through centuries, as transportation routes and recreational activities to name a few (Sharma et al., 2019). Despite our frequent usage of lake ice there is a lack of extensive knowledge of it. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Dynamic simulation and 3D visualization of a floating tilted counter-rotating vertical axis offshore wind turbine

    Kandidat-uppsats,

    Författare :Lovisa Jonsson; Alexander Hedene; Klara Österling; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Wind turbine; Offshore; VAWT; CRVT; Simulation; Visualization; MATLAB; Dynamics;

    Sammanfattning : The growing global demand for clean energy is critical, and wind power plays a crucial role in addressing this need. The increasing demand is driving advancements in the field of offshore wind power and one promising innovation is the counter-rotating vertical axis turbines (CRVT), specifically designed for floating wind power installations.

  3. 3. Using a GIS to enable an economic, land use and energy output comparison between small wind powered turbines and large-scale wind farms: the case of Oslo, Norway.

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Författare :Colin Potter; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Geography; GIS; Wind power; Renewable energy sources; urban wind energy; urban areas; planning; vertical axis wind turbines; comparative studies; urban integrated energy systems; Oslo; Roan; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Responding to an identified knowledge gap, the study aims to determine if smaller wind turbines located on top of existing urban buildings are more resource efficient (land utilization and economically) than large scale wind farms. To answer this question, using a GIS, the resource efficiency of the Roan wind farm in Northern Norway was compared to a theoretical modeled installation of small-scale wind turbines on top of buildings within a 2km radius study zone in central Oslo.

  4. 4. Design Optimization of Savonius Wind Turbine using CFD Simulations

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Författare :Vatsalkumar Manavar; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Savonius wind turbine; Computational fluid dynamics; Vertical axis wind turbine; Overlap ratio; Distance between blades; Power coefficient;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on a simulation of the Savonius wind turbine. The Savoniusturbine is a simple vertical axis device, which has half cylindrical blades attached to the main shaft opposite to each other which creates the drag force from incoming wind and generates mechanical torque which drives the generator for electricity generation.

  5. 5. Weight Optimization of Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine Blades constructed in Swedish Fossil Free Steel : With respect to fatigue life time

    Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för maskinteknik (MT)

    Författare :Johannes Hall; Albin Larsson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :VAWT; Wind Turbine Blade; SSAB; Fossil-Free; Weight Optimization; Topology Optimization; Sizing Optimization; NACA 0018; STRENX 1300; Abaqus; Tosca Structure; VAWT; Vindturbinblad; SSAB; Fossilfritt; Viktoptimering; Topologioptimering; Size-Optimering; NACA 0018; STRENX 1300; Abaqus; Tosca Structure;

    Sammanfattning : Wind turbines have been utilized for centuries to harness energy from the wind. Commercial wind turbine blades are typically made from composite materials, which are difficult to recycle, leading to blades ending up in landfills at the end of their lifecycle. Additionally, these materials contribute to microplastic pollution. LÄS MER
