A Final Move to Your Own House
(SINTEF Proceedings;8, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Objective – What makes a house a home? Many residents of care centres do not feel at home. 'This is not my own house', is what we heard in many of our conversations with residents. What makes the current houses into homes? ... -
A method for determining the time-dependent indoor CO2 concentration to evaluate air hygiene
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)This paper deals with new ways to describe and assess indoor air CO2-levels to provide a sufficient clarity. Besides common illustrations of measured or calculated CO2 concentrations over a certain period of time different ... -
A multifluid‐PBE model for a slurry bubble column with bubble size dependent velocity, weight fractions and temperature
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)With kinetic gas theory as a starting point, equations of change for total mass, species mass, momentum and inner energy are developed for the dispersed gaseous phase and implemented to describe the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis ... -
A multi‐domain 1D particle‐reactor model for packed bed reactor applications
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)A validated multi-domain 1D particle-reactor model has been developed to simulate packed bed reactor operation. Two main components of the model are: (1) a particle model for simulating the radial distribution of chemical ... -
A new simplified daylight evaluation tool, description and validation against the standard method of EN 17037
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)A new daylight evaluation tool using a simplified assessment method to determine the daylight quantity provided to a typical room was developed. Its calculation method is based on a set of formulas integrating the main ... -
A numerical approach to model aggregate restructuring in shear flow using DEM in Lattice‐Boltzmann simulations
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)Aggregate shape and structure significantly impact rheological properties of fluids in many fields such as extractive metallurgy, oil field drilling and mineral processing. The morphology of the aggregates determines the ... -
A numerical evaluation of the effect of the electro‐magnetic force on bubble flow in aluminium smelting process
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)This paper aims to investigate the effect of electromagnetic forces on bubble flow under an anode using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model with the volume-of-fluid (VOF) method to capture the gas-liquid interface. ... -
A top-down digital mapping of spatial energy use for municipality-owned buildings: a case study in Borlänge, Sweden
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2020)Urban energy mapping plays a crucial role in benchmarking the energy performance of buildings for many stakeholders. This paper studies a set of buildings in the city of Borlänge, Sweden, owned by the municipality. The aim ... -
Adaptive coarse‐graining for large‐scale DEM simulations
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)The large time and length scales and, not least, the vast number of particles involved in industrial-scale simulations inflate the computational costs of the Discrete Element Method (DEM) excessively. Coarse grain models ... -
