Luft/luftvärmepump : - Med möjlighet till återvinning
Sweden has long had access to low electricity prices due to the wide availability of hydro and nuclear power. This has now changed because of today's rising electricity rates resulting in increasing heating costs for properties, especially in the properties with electric heating systems."Ankaret" is a parish for "Svenska Alliansmissionen", which is located at "Gullbrannagården".The parish has installed electrical radiators and an exhaust ventilation system that makes the energy demand high due to the large ventilation flows. The building was built as the price of electricity was still low and would reduce energy use today by combining its heating system with an air/air heat pump. The heat pump delivers more heat into the room than the electrical energy that it uses. This lowers the electricity needs.

Tilla?mpning och simulering av naturlig ventilation : Potential fo?r utnyttjande i kontorsrum
Mechanical ventilation is the most common type ofventilation in newly constructed office buildings. Therehas been an interest to utilize natural ventilationinstead of mechanical ventilation among architects andHVAC consultants in recent years. This is due to thesize of mechanical ventilation systems, which arespace consuming. The mechanical ventilation system isalso complex and requires maintenance. Furthermore,the fan uses a considerable amount of energy.
Rening av avloppsvatten efter skärprocess
ABB I-R Waterjet Systems combines the robotics and motion expertise of ABB
Flexible Automation with high-pressure intensifier/pumping technology from
Ingersoll-Rand to provide and continue to develop innovative waterjet cutting
systems for global markets.
The purpose of this assignment is to develop a process water purifier. The
purifier should be applicable as an option to ABB I-R?s production cell
Cutting-Box.
At first hand the process water should be purified well enough to let out in
the municipal sewage system, but the ultimate solution is purifying the process
water to the range that recycling is possible.
When investigating the different principle of purifying water, a research of
different products and their manufactories was done.
These different products were compared and the principle of filtration was the
most applicable, as most of the products were designed for far larger
applications.
As the process water contains quite large amount of particles, it is necessary
to perform the filtration in different steps.
The process water purifier is therefore composed of a module of coarse
filtration and one of micro filtration.
In the module of coarse filtration the mainly amount of fibres and particles
are eliminated. They are kept back in the container unit with the larger
fragments and dumped with these when the container is emptied.
In the module of micro filtration the filtration is performed in two steps.
In the first step particles larger than 50?m are eliminated, in the second step
the micro filter is setting the range of purifying, in this case 10?m.
Utvärdering av utrustning för skörd av äpplen avsedda för färskkonsumtion
During the autumn 2009, a 15 hp degree project was accomplished. The objective of the study was to describe different equipment alternatives, suitable for fresh market apple harvest. A field study was conducted during the harvest period to evaluate the efficiency (kg / person/ hour), using the different equipment. Four different systems are described in the study; Pick-ing-bag, Picking-train, Pluk-O-Trak and the Conveyor Harvester. The information about the systems is based on interviews with growers together with previous studies.
Indianen och kalla kriget : Audiovisuella representationer av kalla kriget 1965-1986
The similarity between the Russian and the Indian, in a Cold War context, may be ambiguous considering the ethnic-social variables and the period in time from where the Indians relate. However, by analyzing these, as well as other, characters in the exhibition of movies, we could learn something about the ideology of the time from which the movies derive.This study examines ideology and movies in the Cold War era and concludes that the Indian, for example, may be representing the values of the common public enemy, originating from the Cold War ideology. The movies examined, regardless of influence of distinct Cold War themes or lack of such themes, carry attributes that give evidence of typical Cold War ideology. The fear of communism and common enemies connected to a Cold War context, the thought of America as the land of the free ? with the horizon in the ending of the movies as metaphoric to freedom ? and the moral rhetoric that connects to the American thought of a duty as a global savior, are all signs of the Cold War ideology.Even though the messages are somewhat clearer and more distinct in the movies with Cold War motifs, the fact that ideology is projected through other movies as well should be considered essential for the continuing study of movies as cultural artefacts..

Smart Control : En reaktion på EU:s ekodesignkrav
The purpose of this thesis is to assist the Swedish energy company NIBE Energy Systems in their studies of adaptive regulation applicable to electrical water heaters. Due to coming energy classifications of these appliances in the European Union, NIBE Energy Systems needs to use adaptive regulation, called Smart Control, to keep their products in the best possible energy class and remain competitive to the market. By using this Smart Control regulation a 2-3 % improve-ment of efficiency can be credited the system. This is a small number, but heavily needed, since the energy classes are based on the idea that the European Union is provided with electricity from coal condensate power resulting in a 40 % maximum efficiency. Furthermore, doing noth-ing will result in some water heaters not being approved to use on the market from 2015 due to low efficiency.
Ungdomars upplevelse av mobbning sett ur ett utvecklingsekologiskt och utvecklingspsykologiskt perspektiv
The purpose of our study was to examine 13 to 14 year olds experience of bullying from a perspective of human developmental ecological systems. The questions at issue were: How do the young people themselves define the concept of bullying? Which own experiences do the young people have of bullying? How come bullying exists according to the young people? How do the young people experience that their surroundings view bullying? What do the young people consider that you can do about bullying? We used a qualitative method to collect and handle our primary empirical data. We did individual interviews with ten young people.The results of our study shows that the majority of the persons interviewed thought people bully because they have bad home conditions and that they are unsure of them selves. Many of the young people talked about three different groups in a school class: The popular, the less popular and the nerds.
