Since conventional power plants are being phased out and the reactive power demand tends to increase, alternative technologies are needed to cover it. reactive power sources are being defined and specified in this submission. A technical evaluation and an economic analysis of selected reactive power sources are carried out, based on interviews with manufacturers and operators. As well a multifactorial techno-economic comparison of the evaluated reactive power sources is presented. The technical analysis addresses reactive power control-ranges, stochastic parameters, lifespans, electrical losses and dynamics of re-active power sources. It states that power electronics allow faster setpoint changes than mechanical technologies can achieve, but at the same time this is associated with the highest electrical losses of the reactive power sources considered here. Considering the economic analysis, relative investment costs per reactive power of conventional compensation systems turn out to be the most cost-efficient. With regard to the multifactorial techno-economic comparison, it is im-portant not only to standardize on reactive power that can be provided, but also to include the additional system-relevant properties of technologies in the evaluation as well as the costs in operation.}, language = {en} } @techreport{SternerSchummRanketal., author = {Sterner, Michael and Schumm, Leon and Rank, Daniel and Hofrichter, Andreas}, title = {Intelligente Netzpuffer : Abschlussbericht (24.01.2021)}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{SippenauerBruecklHenneke, author = {Sippenauer, Thomas and Br{\"u}ckl, Oliver and Henneke, Markus}, title = {Verankerung von Flexibilit{\"a}t in der Netzplanung}, series = {Zuk{\"u}nftige Stromnetze: 27.-28.

In this context, the ERP investigations have shown that the unique feature of the magnetically asymmetric WFSM is the reduction of the slot harmonics. At the current state of the art, the slot harmonics can only be reduced with a rotor skewing. The disadvantage of this is a reduction in performance and a more expensive production. It is also remarkable that the magnetic asymmetry reduces the slot harmonics more than the rotor skewing in the PSM.

Ca. 40-50 \% der Weltbev{\"o}lkerung sind von Nahrungsmitteln abh{\"a}ngig, die mit Hilfe von Ammoniakd{\"u}ngern hergestellten wurden. Weltweit wurden alleine im Jahr 2015 181 Mt Ammoniak produziert, wodurch die Ammoniakherstellung mit 1,2 \% am gesamten Energieverbrauch der Welt beteiligt ist und f{\"u}r 0,93 \% der globalen Treibhausgasemissionen zust{\"a}ndig ist. Auch in Zeiten der Energiewende ist diese Grundstoffchemikalie unentbehrlich, ist aber auf einem anderen Wege herzustellen. Ziel dieser Arbeit ist die Darstellung verschiedener M{\"o}glichkeiten zur erneuerbaren Elektrifizierung und Dekarbonisierung der Ammoniakindustrie, wodurch der Einsatz von herk{\"o}mmlichen Energietr{\"a}gern wie Erdgas, Kohle und {\"O}l negiert werden kann. Ammoniak wird aktuell {\"u}ber das Haber-Bosch-Verfahren aus den Rohstoffen Erdgas, Kohle und {\"O}l gewonnen. Bei diesem Verfahren wird {\"u}ber einen Prim{\"a}r- und Sekund{\"a}rreformer Wasserstoff und Stickstoff gewonnen. Andere Gasbestandteile werden gefiltert oder umgewandelt, um sch{\"a}dliche Katalysatorgifte (CO, H2S) zu entfernen. Im Reaktor wird an Eisenkatalysatoren aus Wasserstoff und Stickstoff letztendlich Ammoniak hergestellt. Der Energieverbrauch des Haber-Bosch Verfahrens schwankt zwischen 7,8 MWh/t NH3 f{\"u}r eine moderne und sehr effiziente Anlage mit Erdgas und 13,6 MWh/t NH3 f{\"u}r eine alte mit Kohle betriebene Anlage. An Emissionen treten pro hergestellter Tonne Ammoniak je nach Rohstoff 1,6-3,8 t CO2-eq auf. Neben der Biomassevergasung gibt es mehrere rein elektrische Ans{\"a}tze zur Ammoniakherstellung. Die unterschiedlichen elektrochemischen Ans{\"a}tze zur direkten Ammoniaksynthese, wie der Einsatz von Fl{\"u}ssigsalzelektrolyten oder Feststoffelektrolyten, wurden in Abschnitt 3.2 vorgestellt. Einige dieser Technologien zeigen vielversprechende Ans{\"a}tze, sind jedoch zum aktuellen Zeitpunkt noch zu weit von einem industriellen Einsatz entfernt. Der Einsatz der Wasserelektrolyse in Kombination mit einer Luftzerlegungseinheit ist die derzeit vielversprechendste Methode Ammoniak auf einem strombasierten und dekarbonisierten Wege herzustellen. Bei diesem System wird Wasserstoff im Elektrolyseur und Stickstoff in der Luftzerlegungseinheit hergestellt. Die Ammoniaksynthese findet hierbei in einem Reaktor nach Vorbild des Haber-Bosch-Prozesses statt. Mit diesem System ist ein Energieverbrauch von ca. 10 MWh/t NH3 notwendig. Durch den Einsatz von rein erneuerbar hergestelltem Strom als Energietr{\"a}ger l{\"a}sst sich mit diesem Technologiezusammenschluss die Ammoniakherstellung komplett Emissionsfrei gestalten. Dadurch k{\"o}nnen alleine in Deutschland j{\"a}hrlich bis zu 7,8 Mt CO2-eq eingespart werden. Eine zuk{\"u}nftige Umstrukturierung der Ammoniakherstellung und der gesamten chemischen Industrie ist unabdingbar. Diese kann aber nur parallel mit einem Ausbau erneuerbarer Energien umgesetzt werden.

This includes the investigation of dielectric properties at both low and high frequencies. The behaviour of capacitors whose dielectrics comprise magnetic hybrid materials is well known. Such interfacial magnetocapacitance can be varied according to magnetic content, magnetic flux density and the relative permittivity of the polymer matrix together with other dielectric content. The basic function of trapping electrical charges in polymers (electrets) is also established technology. However, the combination of magnetoactive polymers and electrets has led to the first electromagnetic device capable of adhering to almost any material, whether magnetically susceptible or not. During the course of this research, in addition to dielectrics, electrically conductive polymers based on (PDMS) matrices were developed in order to vary the electrical properties of the material in a targeted manner. In order to ensure repeatable results, this demanded new fabrication techniques hitherto unavailable. The 3D printing of silicones is far from being a mature technology and much pioneering work was necessary before extending the usual 3 d.o.f. to include orientation about and diffusion of particles in these three axes, thus leading to the concept of 6D printing. In 6D printing, the application of a magnetic field can be used during the curing process to control the particulate distribution and thus the spatial filler particle density as desired. Most of the devices (sensors and actuators) produced by such methods contain levels of carbonyl iron powder (CIP) embedded magnetic filler of up to 70 wt\%. Contrary to this, a hitherto neglected research area, namely magnetoactive polymers (MAPs) having significantly lower magnetic particle concentrations (1 to 3 wt\% CIP) were also investigated. With filler concentrations lower than 3 wt\%, structures are formed which are completely absent at higher filler levels. CIP concentrations in the range of 1wt\% demonstrate the formation of toroidal structures. Further development of coherent rings with a compact order results as filler concentrations increase towards 2 wt\%. Above 3 wt\% the structure eventually disintegrates to the usual random order found in traditional MAP with higher CIP content. Structured samples containing 1\%-3 wt\% CIP were investigated with the aid of X-ray tomography where solitary ring structures can be observed and eventually the formation of capillary doubles. Over wavelengths ranging from 1 to 25 µm, spectroscopic analysis of thin film MAP samples containing 2 wt\% CIP revealed measurable magnetic-field-dependent changes in IR absorption at a wavenumber 2350 (λ = 4.255 µm). This was found to be due to the diamagnetic susceptibility of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). Consequently, the first potential application for sparse matrix MAPs was found.}, language = {en} } @article{SchwanzerSchillingerMieslingeretal., author = {Schwanzer, Peter and Schillinger, Maximilian and Mieslinger, Johann and Walter, Stefanie and Hagen, Gunter and Maerkl, Susanne and Haft, Gerhard and Dietrich, Markus and Moos, Ralf and Gaderer, Matthias and Rabl, Hans-Peter}, title = {A Synthetic Ash-Loading Method for Gasoline Particulate Filters with Active Oil Injection}, series = {SAR International Journal of Engines}, volume = {14}, journal = {SAR International Journal of Engines}, number = {4}, publisher = {SAE International}, issn = {1946-3936}, doi = {10.4271/03-14-04-0029}, pages = {493 -- 506}, abstract = {To reduce particulate emissions, the use of particulate filters in diesel engines is meanwhile state of the art, while the integration of such systems in gasoline engines is now also necessary in order to comply with today's regulations. Over its lifetime, a gasoline particulate filter (GPF) collects ash components of fuel, lubrication oil, and materials originating from the catalytic coating and from engine abrasion. In the development and application process, synthetic ashing from GPFs is challenging. The ash of the lubrication oil can be increased in various ways, like oil-doped fuel, a separate oil burner, or changes in the piston-cylinder system of the engine. However, these methods show major disadvantages. For this reason, an improved approach is presented in this study, which allows a quick response to changes in combustion (e.g., engine knocking) and producing ash, which is more realistic due to its primary particle size and the density of ash plugs, in a shorter time. Therefore, an approach to accelerate ash loading by active oil injection using a multi-point injection (MPI) system is introduced. With the help of this methodology, an ashing capacity of 1.21 g/h is implemented, which is a high rate compared to other investigations. The primary particle size (evaluated by means of a transmission electron microscope), is in the same size range as those detected at the full-load curve during regular operation. A computer tomographic (CT) analysis of the incinerated particulate filter also shows that a very high density of ash plugs can be realized, which has also been found in the literature for real applications. In addition, with the help of a mass spectrometer (MS) and an intermediate weighing of the particulate filter, the current ash loading of the GPF could be determined with an accuracy of 1\%.}, language = {en} } @article{SchmidtStraubSindersbergeretal., author = {Schmidt, Henrik and Straub, Benedikt B. and Sindersberger, Dirk and Br{\"o}ckel, Ulrich and Monkman, Gareth J. and Auernhammer, G{\"u}nter}, title = {Collision and separation of nickel particles embedded in a Poly dimethylsiloxan matrix under a rotating magnetic field: A strong magneto active function}, series = {Colloid and Polymer Science}, volume = {299}, journal = {Colloid and Polymer Science}, publisher = {Springer}, doi = {10.1007/s00396-020-04784-4}, pages = {955 -- 967}, abstract = {In order to function as soft actuators, depending on their field of use, magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) must fulfill certain criteria. To name just a few, these can include rapid response to external magnetic fields, mechanical durability, mechanical strength, and/or large deformation. Of particular interest are MREs which produce macroscopic deformation for small external magnetic field variations. This work demonstrates how this can be achieved by just a small change in magnetic field orientation. To achieve this, (super)paramagnetic nickel particles of size ≈ 160 μm were embedded in a non-magnetic polydimethylsiloxan (PDMS) (661-1301 Pa) and their displacement in a stepwise rotated magnetic field (170 mT) recorded using a video microscope. Changes in particle aggregation resulting from very small variations in magnetic field orientation led to the observation of a new strongly magneto-active effect. This configuration is characterized by an interparticle distance in relation to the angle difference between magnetic field and particle axis. This causes a strong matrix deformation which in turn demonstrates hysteresis on relaxation. It is shown that the occurrence strongly depends on the particle size, particle distance, and stiffness of the matrix. Choosing the correct parameter combination, the state can be suppressed and the particle-matrix system demonstrates no displacement or hysteresis. In addition, evidences of non-negligible higher order magnetization effects are experimentally ascertained which is qualitatively in agreement with similar, already theoretically described, particle systems. Even at larger particle geometries, the new strongly magneto-active configuration is preserved and could create macroscopic deformation changes.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RiegerOetjenvandeParetal., author = {Rieger, Anna and Oetjen, Arne and van de Par, Steven and Rabl, Hans-Peter}, title = {Geh{\"o}rbezogene Modellierung der Dissonanz}, series = {Tagungsband DAGA 2021: 47.

The current amount of soot and ash in the filter is calculated by a soot load model in the electronic control unit in combination with a differential pressure sensor determining the pressure drop over the particulate filter. Active regeneration is initiated if the calculated amount of soot or the measured differential pressure is too high. This is associated with additional fuel consumption. An on-board diagnosis for the particulate filter is currently not part of the Euro 6d emission standard. For future exhaust emission standards, on-board diagnosis or active monitoring of the particulate filter is conceivable. One of the benefits of monitoring is the fact that unnecessary active regenerations can be avoided. As a result, there is no additional fuel consumption due to misinterpretations of the amount of soot in the filter. For active monitoring of the particulate filter, a radiofrequency (RF-) sensor, that detects the soot loading of the filter with electromagnetic waves directly, can be used. Such a system has the advantage that by utilizing the filter as a sensor more precise information about the current state of the filter, e.g. a possible damage, can be provided. Worst-case considerations of filter damages, tested at an engine test bench show the advantages which are entailed by a system like that. By means of partial regeneration of the particulate filter it is demonstrated how the remaining amount of soot in the filter can be detected in a better way in comparison to the differential pressure sensor by using the RF-sensor.}, language = {en} } @article{Briem, author = {Briem, Ulrich}, title = {Die neue VDI 2500 : Faserseilwissen kompakt}, series = {Logistik f{\"u}r Unternehmen}, journal = {Logistik f{\"u}r Unternehmen}, number = {11-12}, pages = {36 -- 37}, abstract = {Die Richtlinie VDI 2500 „Faserseile" hat 1990 erstmals zusammenfassend den Stand der Technik auf dem Gebiet der Faserseile dargestellt und wertvolle Infor-mationen {\"u}ber Aufbau, Auswahl, Konfek-tionierung und {\"U}berwachung von Faser-seilen gegeben.

This work is dedicated first to analytically investigate the potential of applying NaY-Water/Zeolite as a working pair for heat and cold storage upon utilizing high temperature heat.

Contrary to that trend, COP will decrease with increasing the thermal capacity of the AdsHX.

It is determined under what conditions there is an elasticity theory analogue of the Dykhne formula for the effective conductivity. The theoretical results are supported by known experiments and show improvement over the existing approach. The introduction of the theory with the variable percolation threshold paves the way for describing the magnetorheological properties of magnetoactive elastomers. A similar approach has been recently used for the description of magneto-dielectric and magnetic properties.}, language = {en} } @article{SnarskiiShamoninChamonineYuskevichetal., author = {Snarskii, Andrei A. and Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail and Yuskevich, Pavel and Saveliev, Dmitry V. and Belyaeva, Inna A.}, title = {Induced anisotropy in composite materials with reconfigurable microstructure: Effective medium model with movable percolation threshold}, series = {Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications}, volume = {560}, journal = {Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications}, number = {December}, publisher = {Elsevier}, doi = {10.1016/j.physa.2020.125170}, abstract = {In composite materials, with field-dependent restructuring of the filler material (changes in the mutual arrangement of inclusions), the presence of an external magnetic field induces anisotropy of the dielectric properties, even if the composite is isotropic in the absence of an external field. A modified effective medium approximation is proposed for the calculation of the components of effective permittivity within a class of composites with reconfigurable microstructure, where both phases (the filler and the matrix) are isotropic and the inclusions have spherical shape. The effective physical properties are calculated in the parallel and perpendicular directions to an applied field. The appearance of the anisotropy of the permittivity is simulated by the introduction of two not-equal, possibly variable (field-dependent) percolation thresholds. The implications, of the proposed theoretical approach, are demonstrated for the case of the dielectric properties of magnetoactive elastomers (MAEs). In MAEs with soft polymer matrices, the mutual arrangement of micrometer-sized magnetic inclusions can significantly change in an applied magnetic field. A reasonable agreement between theory and experiment at a measurement frequency of 1 kHz is found, and is improved in comparison to the previous models. The components of the effective permittivity tensor, characterizing the dielectric properties along the direction of the applied magnetic field and in the orthogonal direction, grow with an increasing field. This growth is more pronounced for the permittivity component in the field direction. The possible extensions of the theoretical model and future directions of research are discussed. The presented theoretical approach can be useful for the application-driven development of a number of smart materials, in particular electro- and magnetorheological gels, elastomers and fluids.}, language = {en} } @article{SavelievBelyaevaChashinetal., author = {Saveliev, Dmitry V. and Belyaeva, Inna A. and Chashin, Dmitri V. and Fetisov, Leonid Y. and Romeis, Dirk and Kettl, Wolfgang and Kramarenko, Elena Yu and Saphiannikova, M. and Stepanov, Gennady V. and Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail}, title = {Giant extensional strain of magnetoactive elastomeric cylinders in uniform magnetic fields}, series = {Materials}, volume = {13}, journal = {Materials}, number = {15}, publisher = {MDPI}, address = {Basel}, issn = {1996-1944}, doi = {10.3390/ma13153297}, pages = {1 -- 17}, abstract = {Elongations of magnetoactive elastomers (MAEs) under ascending-descending uniform magnetic fields were studied experimentally using a laboratory apparatus specifically designed to measure large extensional strains (up to 20\%) in compliant MAEs.

The synthesized cylindrical MAE samples were based on polydimethylsiloxane matrices filled with micrometer-sized particles of carbonyl iron. The impact of both the macroscopic shape factor of the samples and their magneto-mechanical characteristics were evaluated. For this purpose, the aspect ratio of the MAE cylindrical samples, the concentration of magnetic particles in MAEs and the effective shear modulus were systematically varied. It was shown that the magnetically induced elongation of MAE cylinders in the maximum magnetic field of about 400 kA/m, applied along the cylinder axis, grew with the increasing aspect ratio. The effect of the sample composition is discussed in terms of magnetic filler rearrangements in magnetic fields and the observed experimental tendencies are rationalized by simple theoretical estimates.

The circular magnetic field is generated by an electric current in a straight wire passing through the inner hole of the tube.

This concept significantly enhances the biodiesel production's profitability and thus strongly contributes to the sustainability of future biofuels. After simple addition reactions with building block chemicals, less hydrophilic glycerol derivatives are obtained, which are compatible with biofuels. Even more, the products of the reactions of glycerol with acetone or butyric acid, referred to as solketal and tributyrin, respectively, lead to promising biofuels in mixtures with rapeseed oil and its biodiesel. Due to their low freezing points, they act as cloud and freezing point depressants, when added to vegetable oil/biodiesel blends. Further, since their viscosity is close to common biodiesel, biofuels containing high amounts of vegetable oil and even more glycerol derivatives than they arise during the biodiesel production can be obtained. Thus, this new class of biofuels enables adaptable compositions depending on the application and also the usage as drop-in fuel without any or just few percent of further additives. After optimising the formulations, ignition delay, exhaust gas recirculation, fuel consumption and combustion process measurements were performed in an unmodified upto-date diesel engine. The experiments showed that the properties of the formulated biofuels are either similar to or even better than diesel. The hydrotropy of the glycerol derivatives in these mixtures enables the potential to implement water into biofuels, so-called hydrofuels, reducing nitrogen oxide emissions and leading to further optimised dropin fuels.}, language = {en} } @article{FrazzicaBrancatoDawoud, author = {Frazzica, Andrea and Brancato, Vincenza and Dawoud, Belal}, title = {Unified Methodology to Identify the Potential Application of Seasonal Sorption Storage Technology}, series = {Energies}, volume = {13}, journal = {Energies}, number = {5}, publisher = {MPDI}, address = {Basel}, doi = {10.3390/en13051037}, pages = {1 -- 17}, abstract = {In this study, the definition of a new methodology for a preliminary evaluation of the working boundary conditions under which a seasonal thermal energy storage (STES) system operates is described. The approach starts by considering the building features as well as the reference heating system in terms of solar thermal collectors' technology, ambient heat sinks/source, and space heating distribution systems employed. Furthermore, it is based on a deep climatic analysis of the place where the STES needs to be installed, to identify both winter and summer operating conditions. In particular, the STES energy density is evaluated considering different space heating demands covered by the STES (ranging from 10\% up to 60\%). The obtained results demonstrate that this approach allows for the careful estimation of the achievable STES density, which is varies significantly both with the space heating coverage guaranteed by the STES as well as with the ambient heat source/sink that is employed in the system. This confirms the need for careful preliminary analysis to avoid the overestimation of the STES material volume. The proposed approach was then applied for different climatic conditions (e.g., Germany and Sweden) and the volume of one of the most attractive composite sorbent materials reported in the literature, i.e., multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT)-LiCl, using water as the working fluid, needed for covering the variable space heating demand in a Nearly Zero Energy Building (NZEB) was calculated. In the case of Swedish buildings, it ranges from about 3.5 m3 when 10\% of the space heating demand is provided by the STES, up to 11.1 m3 when 30\% of the space heating demand is provided by the STES.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchiedermeierRettnerSteineretal., author = {Schiedermeier, Maximilian and Rettner, Cornelius and Steiner, Marcel and M{\"a}rz, Martin}, title = {Dual-inverter control synchronization strategy to minimize the DC-link capacitor current}, series = {2020 IEEE Vehicle Power and Propulsion Conference (VPPC), 18 November 2020 - 16 December 2020, Gijon, Spain}, booktitle = {2020 IEEE Vehicle Power and Propulsion Conference (VPPC), 18 November 2020 - 16 December 2020, Gijon, Spain}, publisher = {IEEE}, doi = {10.1109/VPPC49601.2020.9330921}, pages = {1 -- 6}, abstract = {This paper proposes the possible switching synchronization strategies of an automotive dual-inverter against the background of minimizing the RMS DC-link capacitor current. The publication mainly focuses on the straight-ahead motion of a rear axle with one electric drive per wheel. In addition to it, a dual-inverter consisting of two subinverters with a common DC-link capacitor is taken into consideration. These sub-inverters each have three phases and are based on a 2-level voltage-source-topology. To control the electrical machines, the continuous Space-Vector-Modulation strategy is used. For this application, different control signal synchronization strategies of the two sub-inverters of the dualinverter are presented. Apart from the existing strategies, this paper proposes a new method, which inherits a compromise between low complexity and high effectiveness. In contrast to previous publications, the resulting capacitor currents are quantified and subsequentlyevaluated. This novel quantification, which is dependent on the dual-inverter's operating point, provides a base for targeted dimensioning of the capacitor. Moreover, this forms the foundation for further investigations of vehicle's cornering, as well as for the possible synchronization of stand-alone inverters. In the context of this publication, the presented results are verified by experimentally determined data of a motor-inverter system.}, language = {en} } @article{ChatzitakisSafarovOpferkuchetal., author = {Chatzitakis, Paris and Safarov, Javid and Opferkuch, Frank and Dawoud, Belal and Hassel, Egon}, title = {Vapor pressures and activity coefficients of 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol in binary mixtures with 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone and 2-pyrrolidone}, series = {Journal of Molecular Liquids}, volume = {305}, journal = {Journal of Molecular Liquids}, number = {May}, publisher = {Elsevier}, issn = {0167-7322}, doi = {10.1016/j.molliq.2020.112828}, abstract = {The vapor pressures of two binary mixtures containing 2-trifluoroethanol (TFE) + 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone (DMI) and TFE + 2-pyrrolidone (PYR), were investigated at temperatures T = (274.15 to 423.15) K using two different static method installations.
