1. Influence of rotor structure on cogging torque in a surface-mounted PM-generatorMarian Greconici, Gheorghe Madescu, Daniela Milosevici, Marius Biriescu, Martian Mot, 2019, strokovni članek Opis: This paper deals with the analysis of the cogging torque in a surface-mounted permanent magnet generator in order to determine some techniques to minimize or eliminate the cogging torque. The simulation with finite element method (FEM) was carryout. A four-pole surface-mounted PM generator is investigated in the paper using FEM. The paper analyses the possibilities to reduce this type of torque by producing some asymmetry in the rotor structure. Two types of asymmetry were analysed: the PM pole arc with different widths, and the shifting of the PM. The numerical results obtained in the asymmetrical cases with symmetrical ones were compared and discussed. Finally, some conclusions are highlighted regarding the simulated results.

2. An alternative method of increasing the transmission performance of a conventional 110 kV cable lineDardan Klimenta, Dragan Tasić, Miroljub S. Jevtić, 2019, strokovni članek Opis: The purpose of this paper is to show that a significant increase in the ampacity of a 110 kV underground cable line is achievable, if a hydronic asphalt pavement system is applied along the entire line, and if the cable trench is completely filled with high thermal conductivity bedding in order to improve the conduction of heat between the line and the surface of the earth. In such a way, it would be possible to simultaneously collect and then store heat from the sun and cable line. The mutual thermal effects between the 110 kV cable line and the hydronic asphalt pavement, in the presence of solar radiation, wind-driven convection and heat emission along the earth surface, are simulated using FEM-based models for the most unfavourable summer conditions and the most common winter conditions. An adequate experimental background is also provided based on the existing measurements relevant to the thermal analysis performed. It was found that, compared to the associated base cases, the cable ampacity can be increased up to 92.3% for the most unfavourable summer conditions, and up to 60.3% for the most common winter conditions.

4. Production, thermal analysis and application of roll bond solar absorbers for heating and cooling in residential buildingsJurij Avsec, Daniel Brandl, Helmut Schober, Urška Novosel, Janko Ferčec, 2019, objavljeni znanstveni prispevek na konferenci Opis: The effects of global warming are a crucial issue in the near future. The combination of renewable energy sources (RES) and the use of alternative energy technology such as heat pumps and hydrogen technology could solve major ecological problems. In Central Europe, the energy demand for heating and cooling in residential buildings is clearly higher than for generation of electricity or energy for trucking e.g. In this paper, a new solar thermal absorber has been analysed which is produced by using the so called "roll bond" technology (ABS Network, 2018). The focus of this study lies on the determination of the energy efficiency by combining this solar thermal absorber with heat pumps and biomass or geothermal systems in the region of Central Europe.

5. Cost-benefit analysis of frost protection methodsMatej Fike, Mateja Fekonja, Miha Smrekar, 2020, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: Agricultural losses due to frost are high in various parts of the world, and in Slovenia, frost damage has frequently occurred in recent decades. Multiple methods for preventing frost damage exist and have been researched more or less extensively. Despite this, frost prevention measures are relatively sparsely used in Slovenia. This article aimed to review and compare active frost prevention technology for a case study of a typical fruit farm in Slovenia, based on a cost-benefit analysis. Most of the active methods require either large capital investment or have a high annual cost. According to our analysis, burning wood, used in Slovenia to battle frost damage in orchards and vineyards, proved to be the most cost-effective method, which is probably why it remains in wide use.

6. Analysis of combustible fractions in mixed municipal waste and packaging and calculation of energy valueIvana Tršelič, Simon Jerina, Sebastijan Seme, Janja Stergar, 2020, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The present article analyses combustible fractions in mixed municipal waste and packaging and the calculation of energy value. Methods of thermal treatment of waste and methods of preparation of alternative fuels and classifications are presented and described. The article describes the method of analysis of caloric values with which we determined the energy values of individual fractions. For the research, we also used two thermal analyses, with which we considered individual fractions, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential dynamic calorimetry. The article presents the results of both thermal analyses, with which we observe the responses of individual types of plastics at different temperatures and the change in physical and chemical properties. The problem we have analysed in this article is mainly recyclable plastic that can no longer be reused due to various factors. The results of the structural analysis of household waste collection are also presented and described; on the basis of the analysis, the energy value of the container of mixed municipal waste and the reasonableness of waste reuse are recalculated.

7. Development of mathematical models in explicit form for design and analysis of axial flux permanent magnet synchronous machinesFranjo Pranjić, Peter Virtič, 2020, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: This article proposes a methodology for the design of double-sided coreless axial flux permanent magnet synchronous machines, which is based on a developed model for calculating the axial component of the magnetic flux density in the middle of the distance between opposite permanent magnets, which also represents the middle of the stator. Values for different geometric parameters represent the input data for the mathematical model in explicit form. The input data are calculated by using a simplified finite element method (FEM), which means that calculations of simplified 3D models are performed. The simplified model consists of two rotor disks with surfacemounted permanent magnets and air between them, instead of stator windings. Such a simplification is possible due to similar values of permeability of the air and copper. For each simplified model of the machine the axial component of the magnetic flux density is analyzed along a line passing through the center of opposite permanent magnets and both rotor disks. Values at the middle of the distance between the opposite permanent magnets are the lowest and are therefore selected for the input data at different stator, rotor disks and permanent magnets (PM) thicknesses. Such input data enable the model to consider the nonlinearity of materials.

9. Experimental and numerical analysis of fracture mechanics behavior of heterogeneous zones in S690QL1 grade high strength steel (HSS) welded jointDamir Tomerlin, Dražan Kozak, Luka Ferlič, Nenad Gubeljak, 2023, izvirni znanstveni članek Opis: The heterogeneity of welded joints’ microstructure affects their mechanical properties, which can vary significantly in relation to specific weld zones. Given the dimensional limitations of the available test volumes of such material zones, the determination of mechanical properties presents a certain challenge. The paper investigates X welded joint of S690QL1 grade high strength steel (HSS), welded with slightly overmatching filler metal. The experimental work is focused on tensile testing to obtain stress-strain properties, as well as fracture mechanics testing. Considering the aforementioned limitations of the material test volume, tensile testing is carried out with mini tensile specimens (MTS), determining stress-strain curves for each characteristic weld zone. Fracture mechanical testing is carried out to determine the fracture toughness using the characteristic parameters. The experimental investigation is carried out using the single edge notch bend (SENB) specimens located in several characteristic welded joint zones: base metal (BM), heat affected zone (HAZ), and weld metal (WM). Fractographic analysis provides deeper insight into crack behavior in relation to specific weld zones. The numerical simulations are carried out in order to describe the fracture behavior of SENB specimens. Damage initiation and evolution is simulated using the ductile damage material behavior. This paper demonstrates the possibility of experimental and numerical determination of fracture mechanics behavior of characteristic heterogeneous welded joint zones and their influence on crack path growth.
