SINTEF projects

A competitively-priced online spectral imager has been developed that is robust and accurate enough for industrial applications

Prediction of deposition and transport of sand in sandliquid (MD) and sand-gas-liquid (1D) flows.

The main objective of this project is to enhance the understanding and knowledge in the field of thermal effects in PEFCs.

HFC - Human Factors in Control is a network for researchers, industry and consultants that are working with human factors (HF - Human Factors).

Ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems are an energy efficient technology for heating and cooling of non-residential buildings. Ground source is a relatively high and stable heat source tempe­rature that enables a considerable share of the cooling...

ELCOM-90 is an efficient tool for data communication between control centres as well as for communication between substations and control centres.

Modern methods for 3D geological modelling and reservoir characterization are leading industry to routinely build very large and detailed reservoir models; grid models of the subsurface geology currently range in size from 10 to 100 million cells and...

Norway was at the brink of a significant wind energy development with an official target of increasing the annual wind energy production to 3 TWh within 2010. Industrial initiatives had also been taken; most notably by ScanWind and Umoe Ryving. The...

The Energy Planning Toolbox was created to support and guide the process of planning local energy systems with multiple energy carriers: electricity, gas, hot water, etc.

A mixed energy distribution system means (in this context) a local (regional/local) energy system with different energy carriers (electricity, district heating, natural gas, hydrogen) and a mix of distributed energy sources and end-uses.

The overall objective for the SATURN Cold Flow project is to demonstrate an innovative and ground-breaking technology solution.

A fast introduction of large amounts of intermitting renewable power production as wind power can cause technical and economic problems of the power systems.

Energy EFFiciency and LOad curve impacts of COMmercial Development in competitive markets

Dynamic models of wind farms for power system studies This Annex facilitated an international collaboration organised under the International Energy Agency (IEA) Implementing Agreement for Co-operation in the Research and Development of Wind...

The goal of the project is to efficiently bring oil and gas from offshore installations to shore through pipelines.

The aim of this project is to develop practical and targeted strategies with the emphasis on personal safety and finances, decision criteria, and simple tools, all with a view to optimal grid management (maintenance and renewal). This will include...

The objective of this project has been to gain new knowledge and to establish new laboratory facilities for future R&D projects on the design and use of power electronic converters in power systems.
