Duplex Stainless Steel Laser‐Surface Textured: Stability in Brine Solution
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Controlled laser‐surface treatment (LST) of duplex DSS2205 steel is performed to increase its stability in brine solution under cyclic electrochemical assays. The superior protection with respect to flat and smooth panels is attributed to the presence of FeCr2O4 as the main protective oxide layer in the LST surface, after corrosion tests. The stability

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study examines how several molten high‐silicon electrical steels interact with both conventional and recycled MgO–C refractories. For this, various immersion experiments are conducted. In addition to infiltration, a number of mechanisms are identified and explained that control the corrosion of the refractory material.

Introduction of new decentralised renewable heat supply in an existing district heating system
Energy, 2018 The effects of new heat pump and solar collector capacity in an existing district heating system are investigated by using Helsinki as a case study. Existing heat supply consists of combined heat and power plants, boilers and large-scale heat pumps. Also, the potential benefit of low distribution temperatures is evaluated.
