Innovative low-mass cooling systems for the ALICE ITS Upgrade detector at CERN

The Phase-1 upgrade of the LHC to full design luminosity, planned for 2019 at CERN, requires the modernisation of the experiments around the accelerator. The Inner Tracking System (ITS), the innermost detector at the ALICE experiment, will be upgraded by r ...

Electro-Thermal Design of a Modular Multilevel Converter Prototype

Drazen Dujic, Alexandre François Christe, Émilien Luc Henri Coulinge

This paper describes the electro-thermal design of a medium voltage modular multilevel converter prototype, from the submodule power semiconductor thermal requirements to the overall system level integration. The high number of semiconductors and capacitor ...

In Situ Synchrotron X-Ray Diffraction and Small Angle X-Ray Scattering Studies on Rapidly Heated and Cooled Ti-Al and Al-Cu-Mg Alloys Using Laser-Based Heating

Helena Van Swygenhoven, Steven Van Petegem, Christian Leinenbach, Patrick Schloth

Beam-based additive manufacturing (AM) typically involves high cooling rates in a range of 10(3)-10(4) K/s. Therefore, new techniques are required to understand the non-equilibrium evolution of materials at appropriate time scales. Most technical alloys ha ...

Sustainable Habitats – reconciling what we need with what we have

Marilyne Andersen

Efficient daylighting and solar control strategies can have a tremendous impact on energy use. But any savings can only be effective if one also carefully accounts for our comfort, well-being and health criteria. This talk will explore current research eff ...

The role of the stress regime on microseismicity induced by overpressure and cooling in geologic carbon storage

Victor Vilarrasa Riano

Fluid injection in deep geological formations usually induces microseismicity. In particular, industrial-scale injection of CO2 may induce a large number of microseismic events. Since CO2 is likely to reach the storage formation at a lower temperature than ...

Overheating reduction of a cold formed steel-framed building using a hybrid evolutionary algorithm to optimize different PCM solutions

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo

Cold formed steel-framed constructions have been strongly disseminated with particular emphasis on the residential sector due to their fast execution, quality control and final cost. However, this construction typology presents a weakness associated with a ...

A Multi-Criteria Decision-Support Workflow for Early-Stage Neighborhood Design based on Predicted Solar Performance

Marilyne Andersen, Émilie Nault

Despite recent developments, the need for adequate guidance and support in the early decision-making process of urban planners, designers, and architects has recurrently been recognized. Traditional performance assessment methods, which are often based on ...

Optimal Sensor Placement for Time-Dependent Systems: Application to Wind Studies around Buildings

Ian Smith, Maria Papadopoulou

Warm climates pose challenges to building energy consumption and pedestrian comfort. Knowledge of the wind flow around buildings can help address these issues through improving natural ventilation, energy use, and outdoor thermal comfort. Computational flu ...
