Round 1:<\/strong> (in English) Anechoic Chamber The PDC parallel data centre, KTH’s supercomputer The Sustainable Power Laboratory (SPL)
\nThe fusion reactor (EXTRAP T2R)
\nEXTRAP T2R is an experimental facility for fusion energy research. At the facility, researchers are studying magnetic confinement and heating of plasma, a method for producing large amounts of energy through nuclear fusion.
\nFusion energy may be the solution to future energy problems but requires technology that can withstand extreme conditions, especially high plasma temperatures. The plasma in the EXTRAP T2R plant has been heated to a temperature of about 3 million degrees.<\/p>\n
\nIn this lab, our researchers perform measurements of electromagnetic antennas, from 2 to 40 gigahertz (GHz). The walls of the lab are covered with blue foam rubber that absorbs electromagnetic echoes.<\/p>\n
\nKTH’s Parallel Computer Centre (PDC) is home to Sweden’s most powerful supercomputer. During the tour, you will gain an insight into the structure of the supercomputer and how it is used in research through its ability to handle complex data and perform advanced calculations.
\nIn English we are usually called the PDC Centre of High Performance Computing.
\n
\nRound 2:<\/strong> (in Swedish)
\nSmart mobility lab and Integrated Transport Research Lab
\nThe Smart Mobility Lab (SML) and Integrated Transport Research Lab (ITRL) conduct research on the transport and traffic of the future.
\nSML works with the development and testing of solutions for intelligent transport systems and self-driving cars, with the help of simulation and models. At ITRL, KTH works together with the commercial vehicle manufacturer Scania to develop and demonstrate new sustainable transport systems.<\/p>\n
\nSPL engages in research, development and education in electrical engineering. The lab looks at prototype development and testing of power electronics, antennas, electrical machinery and drive systems.
\nThis also includes the high-voltage lab, which is used for research in high-voltage, insulation materials and components in electric power systems. The lab has equipment for impulse discharges and electrostatic experiments.
\n
\nRound 3:<\/strong> (in Swedish)
\nThe Odqvist Laboratory
\nWelcome to KTH\u2019s experimental mechanics lab. Here you will review a number of different environments, including a seven metre long wind tunnel and a completely sound-insulated room for studying sound and vibration.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"gallery","galley":[{"ID":19770,"id":19770,"title":"h\u00f6gsp\u00e4nningslabbet-2","filename":"hogspanningslabbet-2-scaled.jpg","filesize":195817,"url":"https:\/\/wp.nobelprizemuseum.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/hogspanningslabbet-2-scaled.jpg","link":"https:\/\/wp.nobelprizemuseum.se\/en\/menus\/hogspanningslabbet-2-2\/","alt":"","author":"41","description":"","caption":"","name":"hogspanningslabbet-2-2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":31000,"date":"2021-08-26
