This project helps to reach the end goal of doing long distance measurements. Long distance measurements depends on the refractive index of air. The refractive index depends on temperature, pressure, humidity and gas mixture. The biggest uncertainty of calculating the refractive index is the temperature, …

This report is written to guide the reader step by step through the process of developing a heating stage and a iron mapping device for a photoluminescence setup, used to measure the lifetime of silicon wafers in solar cells. Subject specific terms will be explained throughout the report. First, research …

Ymere and the city Almere will in the next ten years develop the residential area Almere Hout Noord. The ambitious targets of this area is a CO2 neutral and energy independent neighborhood with an EPC demand of 0,4. Because of the area's limitations an investigation into air source heat pumps was needed …

Throughout the world greenhouse horticulture is expanding and intensifying. The expansion is driven by the much higher production levels that are achieved in greenhouses compared to open fields. This provides increased income for farmers and a positive effect on rural development. Intensification is …

The goal of this graduate project is to design a cooling system for the race car of University Racing Eindhoven for 2008-2009.
