Visited a 'Stall' (Swedish word for Stable). The horses were magnificent. It was amazing to see them play in snow. 😊 #instadalarna #borlänge #falun #studyinsweden #studyatdu #lifeatdu #dalarnauniversity #hogskolandalarna

November - The busiest Month!

November has been one of the most busiest month so far in the program, with running of 3 projects in different courses. One course that ended was 'Dynamic Simulation of Energy Systems', a part of this course was to understand functioning of the simulation tool 'Trnsys'. We had to design and simulate an energy system and also design and test a control strategy for the energy system designed in the first part. A word of advice if you are taking this course, to start early and not delay working on your project. Trnsys is not the most user friendly software you will come across, you will have several glitches while simulating and takes time to correct it.

Two new courses started in November 'Solar Thermal Power' and 'Project Course', I have been awaiting for these two courses since the beginning of this semester. We had an amazing guest lecture for three days by Pedro Horta on 'Concentrating Solar Technology'. Pedro is a Head of a Group working on 'Thermal Industrial Processes and Systems' at Fraunhofer ISE , Germany. Pedro's series of lectures were very interesting and informative, they were focused on physics involved in concentrators which can be applied to both thermal and photovoltaic systems, I recommend you not to miss them.

In the project course, my group is involved with a project in designing a photovoltaic system for an indoor football field 'BSM Arena' in Borlänge. So far it has been quite interesting talking to the customers, collecting data from companies and designing in PVSyst.

Apart from courses, the weather in Borlänge has been unusually warm while its snowing in south of Sweden. I hope it snows soon and it will be a white christmas.

A little update, we have started an unofficial Instagram account that will be for the students and made by the students. So follow us on Instagram to get regular updates on things that are happening in and around the campus at Dalarna University. You can find us on Instagram at “lifeatdu”.
