This study reports on the combination of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) generators fueled with biogas as renewable energy source, recoverable from wastes but at present underexploited. From a mobilisable near-future potential in the European Union (EU-15) of ...
This work reports on the analysis of high voltage lateral devices. Two different architectures, self-aligned LDMOS and non-self-aligned XDMOS are presented and used in this work. For the separation of the physical effects that take place inside the HV devi ...
We present Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) of the turbulent compressible flow in a curved and an S-shape duct of square cross section. The aim is to predict the three-dimensional structures which develop inside the cooling channels of heat exchangers and whic ...
The invention relates to a process for increasing the melt viscosities of polyester resins. This process comprises a step of heating the polyester resin in the temperature range comprised between the melting temperature of the polyester resin and the degra ...
Localized electron heating and current drive, like those produced by electron cyclotron heating (ECH) systems, are powerful tools for controlling the sawtooth period. They allow the direct modification of the plasma parameters which determine the sawtooth ...
Energy confinement and heat transport of net-current-free NBI heated plasmas in the large helical device (LHD) are discussed with emphasis on density and power deposition profile dependences. Although the apparent density dependence of the energy confineme ...
The effect of field reversal on the JET MkIIGB-SRP divertor performance has been investigated in L-mode density limit discharges. These experiments show that the direction of the magnetic field has a substantial effect on divertor physics, modifying the ch ...
In a moulding process, in particular in a bladder inflation moulding (BIM process) a thin walled mould is machined to the exact shape of the part to avoid any post machining of the part after stripping. The heating is performed in a liquid tin bath, used t ...
The characteristics of the 'Green Heating System', synonymous with 'Environmentally Friendly Heating System', is academically defined from the total energy systems' point of view, using the concept of 'reversible mode of heating' under the current and futu ...
The present thesis report deals about the material scientists contribution to the interdisciplinary European project "MAGNANOMED" involving people having very different backgrounds (physicist, chemists, biochemists, veterinary surgeons, ...). The work carr ...
