Generating environmental sampling and testing data for micro- and nanoplastics for use in life cycle impact assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Ongoing efforts focus on quantifying plastic pollution and describing and estimating the related magnitude of exposure and impacts on human and environmental health. Data gathered during such work usually follows a receptor ... -
Assessing the potential of seasonal thermal storage for local energy systems: Case study for a neighborhood in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)District heating has an important role in the shift to carbon-neutral energy systems through enabling the use of heat sources that would otherwise be wasted to cover buildings’ heating demands. The availability of many ... -
Global extinction probabilities of terrestrial, freshwater, and marine species groups for use in Life Cycle Assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Human activities put pressure on the natural environmental and the Life Cycle Assessment methodology (LCA) is becoming a more prevalent tool to assess the relevant environmental impacts from products and processes on ... -
Modeling and simulation of oil-free liquid-injected screw compressors using ammonia-water mixture as working fluid
(Chapter, 2022)This study investigates the compression process of an oil-free screw compressor with liquid injection for an absorption-compression heat pump (ACHP) with an ammonia-water mixture as working fluid. In recent years, several ... -

The effect of hydrogen enrichment, flame-flame interaction, confinement, and asymmetry on the acoustic response of a model can combustor
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)To maximise power density practical gas turbine combustion systems have several injectors which can lead to complex interactions between flames. However, our knowledge about the effect of flame-flame interactions on the ... -
Improvements in Demand-Controlled Ventilation to Reduce Energy Use and Improve Indoor Air Quality
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2022:363, Doctoral thesis, 2022)Buildings have become more airtight and insulated over the last years––a response to the acute need to reduce building energy demands in cold climates. However, to secure satisfactory indoor air quality (IAQ) this has led ... -
Role of higher education in sustainability of water resources An assessment of institutions in India
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)The motivation behind this paper is to understand the status of water resources management education provided in higher education institutions (HEIs) in India and decipher gaps between what is taught and what is needed in ... -
Climate change mitigation potentials of biofuels produced from perennial crops and natural regrowth on abandoned and degraded cropland in Nordic countries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Bioenergy expansion is present in most climate change mitigation scenarios. The associated large land use changes have led to concerns on how bioenergy can be sustainably deployed. Promising win-win strategies include the ... -
Development of cold thermal energy storage for industrial refrigeration applications

Simulation of the dipole pattern of summer precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau by CMIP6 models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The dipole pattern of summer precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) during 1961–2014 is evaluated based on observations and 18 models provided by the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6. Of the 18 models, ... -
Negative emission potentials, agronomic and environmental effects of biochar application to agricultural land
(Doctoral theses at NTNU;2022:366, Doctoral thesis, 2022)In 2015 the international community signed the Paris agreement with the aim of maintaining global warming below 2°C. Negative emissions technologies (NETs) that are able of removing atmospheric carbon dioxide for storage ... -
Numerical investigation of an oil-free liquid-injected screw compressor with ammonia-water as refrigerant for high temperature heat pump applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)This study investigates a numerical model of an oil-free twin screw compressor with an ammonia-water mixture as refrigerant and liquid injection. The compressor was identified as the main constraint to increase the heat ... -
Native range estimates for red-listed vascular plants
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Besides being central for understanding both global biodiversity patterns and associated anthropogenic impacts, species range maps are currently only available for a small subset of global biodiversity. Here, we provide a ... -
Flow field and performance of a vertical-axis wind turbine on model buildings
