Normally, power lines for electrical power distribution are shielded such that there is (almost) no magnetic field outside the cable. In a substation, these cables are connected to transformers via unshielded components such as switching boards and busbars. Thus, magnetic fields are ... Read More
Europeans spend between 80% to 90% of their time indoors, for example at home, school, office, and other public buildings. Besides, due to energy-saving measures in buildings, natural ventilation is reduced leading to the accumulation of indoor air pollutants. Consequently, indoor air ... Read More
Using the COMSOL Multiphysics® software with the Heat Transfer Module, we calculated coupled heat and moisture transport to simulate the amount and distribution of condensed moisture in a train wall, with a special focus on the surface of thermal bridges. We tested two approaches to ... Read More
The bladeless centripetal flow turbomachinery or disc turbine was invented by Nikola Tesla with the aim to realize a turbine with higher efficiency and simplicity compared to the state of the art at that time. Unlike conventional turbines, the disc turbine does not use rotor blades. ... Read More
The Anton Paar Modular Compact Rheometer MultiDrive series allows DMTA measurements over a broad range of temperatures, from -160°C to +350°C, thanks to the CTD600 convective temperature chamber. A novel set of measuring systems has been simulated designed and verified with support of ... Read More
Accurately modelling heat exchangers with complex heat transfer phenomena is critical for system optimization and improvement. In this abstract, we present a simulation of a heat exchanger for the supercritical water gasifiation (SCWG) of aqueous waste using the COMSOL Multiphysics® ... Read More
The ideal way to measure the acoustic performance of heavy items such as vehicles or machines is in a semi-anechoic chamber, i.e. in an environment with no reflections except from the solid floor where the noise source is standing. To accurately measure low frequencies down to 20 Hz ... Read More
Increasing energy demands in society have led to intensive fossil fuel usage, resulting in increasing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, one of the most significant greenhouse gases and major contributors to global warming. Considerable efforts have been made towards CO2 capture, storage, ... Read More
Sustainable energy storage is essential for a successful energy transition towards renewable energies. Advanced future power grids will consist almost exclusively of instable and variable sources like solar and wind power. However, fluctuations are very problematic for the power grids, ... Read More
The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energies requires finding new sources of energy. It turns out that the hydrothermal potential of the lakes would cover a significant part of these renewable energy needs. The existing Thermal Lacustrine Networks (TLNs) are efficient in summer ...
