Understanding “Symptoms Associated with Environmental Factors” (SAEF) in buildings; e.g. “sick building syndrome”, “electromagnetic hypersensitivity” and “multiple chemical sensitivity”
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The field of buildings, health and human experiences may be divided between conditions (a) with scientific support for causal relations between exposure and health effects, e.g. dampness in buildings and asthma ... -
Universal Design of Public Transport Systems for People with Mental Health Impairments
(SINTEF Proceedings;8, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2021)Objective – In this project we have examined what barriers people with mental impairments have in relation to travel, what can be done to make it easier for them to travel, and if today’s understanding of universal design ... -
Unresolved CFD‐DEM in environmental engineering: submarine slope stability and other applications
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)When installing gravity foundations for offshore structures such as wind power stations or oil platforms, the seabed needs to be excavated for providing enough stability. To minimize the impact on the surrounding fauna ... -
Upscaled Geocellular Flow Model of Potential Across-and along-Fault Leakage Using Shale Gouge Ratio
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Every CCS project has an inherent risk of leakage. Faults are difficult to characterize because they are structurally complex and limited subsurface field-data is typically available; hence the properties need to be inferred ... -
Use of CFD as a design tool for a phospheric acid plant cooling pond
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)Phosphate fertilizer plants are installations constantly evolving which make their design a challenging task. Phosphogypsum, a by-product of the manufacture of phosphoric acid, is piled up, forming stacks which may ... -
Using CFD analysis to optimise top submerged lance furnace geometries
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)The gas offtake design is an important aspect of the Top Submerged Lance (TSL) furnace technology. CFD modelling has been used to investigate the gas offtake geometry to better understand and address common industrial ... -
Using inference from user attribution of models to support high resolution modelling
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2020)Air flow networks are for many practitioners a here-bedragons territory and despite providing useful information short of CFD assessments it has remained a niche activity. The paper discusses how we might transition from ... -
Using the Urban Stock as A Carbon Sink: A Case Study from the German Federal State of North Rhine – Westphalia
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The decarbonization of the industrial sector will not be feasible without carbon capture and utilization (CCU) or storage (CCS) due to unavoidable process emissions. Due to the lack of geological storage in Germany, the ... -
Validation of a rapid slag viscosity measurement by CFD
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)Slag viscosity is an important property in daily process practice, as well as for modelling flows in metallurgical processes accurately. Measuring slag viscosities is a challenging task, and usually requires a specific ... -
Ventilation strategies to minimise the airborne virus transmission in indoor environments
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)A key challenge to fight the Covid-19 pandemic is to minimise the airborne transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Highly crowded indoor environments, such as schools, become possible hotspots for virus spreading because the ... -
Verification of filtered two fluid models for reactive gas‐solid flows
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2017)CFD simulations of fluidized bed reactors are generally limited to the laboratory scale because of the fine grid sizes that are required to resolve complex particle clustering phenomena. The filtered Two Fluid Model (fTFM) ... -
Verification of Thermal Comfort of Combined Convection-Radiation Air Conditioning System using Building Structure
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Combined Convection-Radiation Air Conditioning System using Building Structure combines the advantages of TABS and convection air conditioning. In ordinary TABS, pipes are buried in the frame, but here pipes are laid on ... -
Viscoelastic flow simulations in disordered porous media
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)We investigate creeping flow of a viscoelastic fluid through a three dimensional random porous medium using computational fluid dynamics. The simulations are performed using a finite volume methodology with a staggered ... -
Visualizing bacteria-carrying particles in the operating room: exposing invisible risks
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Surgical site infections occur due to contamination of the wound area by bacteria-carrying particles during the surgery. There are many surgery preparation conditions that might block the path of clean air in the operating ... -
Visualizing user perception of daylighting: a comparison between VR and reality
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2020)This study introduces a novel method to investigate human perception of daylight in an interactive and immersive way, using game-engine and virtual reality (VR). The proposed method produces highly realistic renderings in ... -
VOC contributions from building materials, furniture, and user equipment in low emitting and modular classrooms
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)This study aimed to assess whether building materials, furniture, and user equipment are sources of pollution that would influence the need for ventilation. Between 2017-2020, measurements were taken in four regular ... -
