Magnus Aa. Gjennestad joins the team
March 21, 2022Magnus Aa. Gjennestad, shown in the picture below, wants to understand how to more accurately describe multi-phase flow in porous media as well as their thermodynamic properties. Fluids in porous media can exist in a diverse set of heterogeneous structures such as ...
Visitor from the University of Lorraine in France
March 21, 2022The 24th of April, we were so fortunate to have visitors from the University of Lorraine in France, Prof. Jean Noël Jaubert and Ass. Prof. Silvia Lasala. In a seminar, they shared with us new insight on their recent research and progress on consistent alpha-correlations ...

Presenting about hydrogen liquefaction at the Cryogenics conference in Prague
March 21, 2022This week, I was travelling to Prague in the Check Republic to the 15th Cryogenics conference together with two of my colleagues from SINTEF, Stian Trædal and David Berstad. Me and David were both presenting recent progress on technology related to liquefaction of hydrogen. ...
Vilde Bråten will improve the understanding of thermodynamic for nano-systems in her PhD
March 21, 2022Vilde Bråten started her PhD in the autumn of 2018. In her PhD, she will bring new insight on the thermodynamics of nano-systems. It is well known that the thermodynamics of nano-systems differs from bulk-behavior, and this is often referred to as ...
New article gives insight on energy efficient membrane separation
March 21, 2022Our article entitled Energy efficient design of membranes processes by use of entropy production minimization has just been accepted for publication in Computers & Chemical Engineering. In the paper, we discuss how to develop more energy efficient membrane separation processes by use of entropy ...
