  1. 11. CFD investigation of a unit cell inside a Plate Heat Exchanger

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Författare :Mattias Ly; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Plate Heat Exchanger; CFD; Computational Fluid Dynamics; LES; Large Eddy Simulation; Periodic; Unit Cell; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : A numerical investigation of the unit cell approach has been done to reduce the computational cost for CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) of plate heat exchangers (PHE) at Alfa Laval. The reduced cost would enable LES (Large Eddy Simulation) to be done which would give a more detailed and accurate insight into the flow and heat transfer processes of the PHE. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Cosmic Dust Detection by the Solar Orbiter Using Machine Learning

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutet för rymdfysik, Uppsalaavdelningen

    Författare :Joar Lönngren; Ludwig Tiston; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Machine Learning; Neural Network; Cosmic Dust; Solar Orbiter; Space Physics; Space Dust;

    Sammanfattning : This project aims to investigate neural network systems as an effective tool for the in-space captured dust impact signal detection. Cosmic dust is the nanometre to micrometre fine-sized particles that exist in the interplanetary region. They originate from comets, asteroids, the planets and their moons and rings, or even the interstellar region. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Chemoreception of a Two-Dimensional Cell with Multilayer Diffusion

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Steffi Schijf; [2023]
    Nyckelord :biophysics; chemoreception; receptors; multilayer diffusion; diffusion; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Previously, Berg and Purcell found an expression for the diffusion current of particles into a set of receptors in their paper Physics of Chemoreception. These receptors were assumed to be uniformly distributed on a spherical cell's surface and the receptors where idealized as circular patches. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Estimating stellar limb darkening using exoplanet transits

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Sora Ishida; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Limb-darkening; CHEOPS; Transit; Exoplanet; PYCHEOPS; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : The brightness of the stars is not uniform over the surface as it varies depending on the wavelength and the atmosphere that the light propagates. Limb darkening is an optical effect caused by a decrease in brightness of the star towards the edge. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Plume-Spacecraft Interaction Analysis : Study on the Plume Effects of Hall-Effect Thrusters (HET) and High-Efficiency Multistage Plasma Thrusters (HEMPT).

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Författare :Josep Sentís Garzón; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Electric propulsion; Plasma plume; Plasma physics; SPIS; OpenPlume EP; Modelling; Charge-Exchange Collisions; Elektrisk framdrivning; Plasma plym; Plasmafysik; SPIS; OpenPlume EP; Modellering; Laddningsväxlingskollisioner;

    Sammanfattning : Plume-spacecraft interactions play an important role in the performance and integrity of spacecraft during their missions in space. The study encompasses a thruster’s plume simulation and its impact on spacecraft geometries to understand and predict the effects and consequences of the impingement on spacecraft surfaces, such as erosion, contamination, forces, and torques.
