COMPREHENSIVE MODEL FOR BLAST FURNACE USING OPENFOAM®
(SINTEF Proceedings;6, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)Blast furnace is a complex, multi-phase and high temperature reactor involving multiple reactions between phases, heat transfer and phase change. Limited options are available to know internal state of the furnace through ... -
Controlled coalescence with local front reconstruction method
(SINTEF Proceedings;2, Chapter; Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2017)The physics of droplet collisions involves a wide range of length scales. This poses a difficulty to accurately simulate such flows with traditional fixed grid methods due to their inability to resolve all scales with ... -
CONTROLLING FLUE GAS TEMPERATURE FROM FERRO SILICON SUBMERGED ARC FURNACES (SAF) USING FLUE GAS RECIRCULATION (FGR)
(SINTEF Proceedings;6, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)Flue gas Recycling (FGR) is a well-known method for NOx reduction. A feasibility study is presented on the potential use of FGR in ferro-silicon production. The aim of the study is to illustrate how recycling of flue ... -
Convective Dissolution in Field Scale Co2 Storage Simulations Using the OPM Flow Simulator
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)In this work we introduce an accurate and efficient way of including the effect of convective mixing in field scale 3D simulations. The effect of the convective mixing is included in the field scale simulations by introducing ... -
Cool down simulations of subsea equipment
(SINTEF Proceedings;1, Chapter, 2015)Experiments and numerical conjugate heat transfer simulations are performed on a simple T-pipe geometry. The T-pipe geometry is partially insulated and mimics subsea equipment which is subject to cool-down after a production ... -
The Costs of CO2 Carbonation in the Cement Industry
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Rising climate change requires rapid changes in high emitting industries such as the cement industry. A concept developed in recent years which attracts researchers, entrepreneurs and policy makers alike is the so-called ... -
COVID-19 dent guard and movable room for dentists ‘practice with design solution for air cleaning in natural ventilation
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)Virus could dependently spread in the air rising human infection. The global awareness issues by COVID-19 of the virus at average size about 0.125 μm smaller than dust led to the lung disorder. Thus, the social distancing ... -
CSEM for CO2 Storage – Feasibility Study at Smeaheia to Optimise Acquisition
(SINTEF Proceedings;7, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)In this work, we evaluate the use of controlled-source electromagnetics (CSEM) for CO2 monitoring at Smeaheia, a possible candidate for future phases of the Norwegian full-scale CCS project. CSEM is sensitive to electrically ... -
Data-based calibration of physics-based thermal models of single-family houses
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)The calibration of building energy simulation models is crucial for addressing the issue of the discrepancy between the simulation output and real-world measurements. The majority of current research studies have used ... -
Datasets for grey-box model identification from representative archetypes of apartment blocks in Norway
(SINTEF Proceedings;5, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2020)Grey-box models combine a relatively simple physical description of the building with a data-driven inference of key parameters and are often used for this purpose. A challenge with grey-box models is that the model ... -
Defining Ship Autonomy by Characteristic Factors
(SINTEF Proceedings;3, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2019)Several papers have proposed ways to define levels of autonomy (LOA), i.e. how responsibility is shared between an automation system and a human when the automation system to some degree can operate independently of the ... -
Demand-controlled ventilation in schools: Influence of base ventilation rates on subjective symptoms, perceived indoor environment and young adults' learning performance
(SINTEF Proceedings;9, Chapter; Peer reviewed; Conference object, 2021)The ventilation airflow rates in a demand-controlled ventilation strategy typically vary between a base (Vmin) and a maximum ventilation rate (Vmax). Classrooms have relatively short but intense hours of occupancy and a ... -
