...it freezes to form ice. Many other materials melt and solidify in the same way. By using the properties of one of these materials, we – a research team in Norway – have made a huge advance in the work to create a green energy store to heat homes and holiday cabins. We have created a small tank which...
His eyes move quickly between the screen and the traffic. The digital glasses he is wearing follow whatever he is looking at – so-called eye tracking. While the driver is entering the address on a digital map, half his time is being spent looking at the screen and his fingers. This experiment is part of...

At the same time, companies from other parts of the country, such as Kongsberg and the Sunnmøre region, are...
Laboratory – has been testing a copy of a section of the deck of the much delayed Yme platform in the North Sea. The results of the tests are confidential, and are the property of Talisman. However, what the SINTEF scientists can talk about is that the test programme meant that they had to construct a gigantic...
...research scientist at SINTEF Energy, has scientifically determined the most effective way to cool down your favourite drink, just in time for Christmas and New Year's. Is there anything better than a cold drink? But how long does it really take to cool it down? "I've found the answer whether you prefer...

Geochemistry
Solutes, by changing the fluid and rock properties, modify the flow. Water-based EOR methods consist of adding active chemical or biological substances that modify the physical properties of the fluids or/and the porous media at the interface between oil and water. The active EOR chemicals may either...
