Students preconceptions about heat and temperature
Čečák, Michal ; Mandíková, Dana (advisor) ; Kácovský, Petr (referee)
This thesis deals with the preconceptions and misconceptions of students in the field of heat and temperature. Here is an overview of textbooks for elementary and secondary schools with topics concerning heat and temperature. This thesis contains a brief characteristic of notions preconceptions and misconceptions, characteristic of Active Learning methods and characteristic of Interactive Lecture Demonstrations. This thesis also contains research of Students preconceptions and misconceptions about heat and temperature (mainly students of grammar schools). For this research was used HTCE test. Results of the research are processed for all students and for students of each class. There are three worksheets (translated from English), which should help with removing misconceptions.

Rozložení tepelných toků na stěnu tokamaku způsobených okrajovými nestabilitami
Kripner, Lukáš ; Cahyna, Pavel (advisor) ; Urban, Jakub (referee)
Edge localized modes (ELMs) are a concern for future magnetic fusion devices, such as ITER, due to the large transient heat loads they generate on the plasma facing components. A very promising method of ELM suppression is an application of resonant magnetic perturbations (RMP); however, such application leads to localized places of higher heat fluxes called footprints. Both ELMs and RMP could limit the operational lifetime of the device. In this thesis, we analyze the temporal and spatial distribution of footprints using the tangle distance method in the aim to prevent a transient overheating. We also analyze quasi-double-null configuration of the ITER plasma which can be expected to be the most susceptible to overheating of the upper wall. Based on the modelling, the potentially dangerous configurations of the RMP have been shown. Using the ELM filament model included in the LOCUST GPU code, we study temporal and spatial distribution of the heat fluxes caused by ELMs in the axially symmetric and the asymmetric magnetic field. The results are compared with published experimental observations. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Antioxidant enzymes response to abiotic stress. Impact of decreased cytokinin level.
Lubovská, Zuzana ; Wilhelmová, Naďa (advisor) ; Prášil, Ilja (referee) ; Kočová, Marie (referee)
Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Science Department of Experimetnal Plant Biology Ph.D. study program: Plant physiology and anatomy Abstract Antioxidant enzymes response to abiotic stress. Impact of decreased cytokinin level. Zuzana Lubovská Supervisor: RNDr. Naďa Wilhelmová, CSc. Supervisor-consultant: RNDr. Helena Štorchová, CSc. Praha, 2015 The response of the antioxidant enzyme system to drought, heat and a combination of these stresses was followed in tobacco plants overexpressing cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase1 (CKX1) under the root-specific WRKY6 promoter (W6:CKX1 plants) and under the constitutive 35S promoter (35S:CKX1 plants) and in the corresponding wild type (WT). CKX1 over-producing lines developed a bigger root system, which contributed to their stress tolerance. The high stress tolerance of 35S:CKX1 plants was also associated with a dwarf shoot phenotype and changed leaf morphology. The genes for chloroplastic antioxidant enzymes, stroma ascorbate peroxidase (sAPX), thylakoid ascorbate peroxidase (tAPX) and chloroplastic superoxide dismutase (FeSOD), which are responsible for scavenging of reactive oxygen species produced via electron transfer during photosynthesis, were all strongly transcribed in control conditions. All the tested stresses down-regulated expression of these genes...

Calculation of thermal resistance of finned heatsink
Kyanka, Radim ; Huták, Petr (referee) ; Toman, Marek (advisor)
This bachelor's thesis is focused on the problem with analytical calculations needed to define thermal resistance of finned heat sinks. First it describes how temperature proceeds at different boundary conditions at fin tip. Than it describes different mechanisms of heat transfer, equlation of heat resistance especially of natural and forced convection. To verify the results there is comparison between analytical equlations written in Matlab program and measuring results.

Cooker With Thermoelectric Charging
Trchalík, Mirek ; Paluřík, Michal
Our project deals with the development and production of ecological cooker, that, in additionto heating food or water, will also be used to produce elektricity for recharging batteries. Theproduct is intended for those who often camp, fish or stay in nature outside civilization for a longtime. The cooker can be used as a heat source, also in the preparation of meals, in addition to theproduction of electricity after recharging the batteries and powering various electrical devices viaUSB ports.

Application Of Graphite In Thermal Management Of Microelectronics
Havlicek, Vaclav ; Vyroubal, Petr
This paper is shortly describing the possibility to improve the thermal management of microelectronics by implementing carbon-based materials, more exactly graphite foils. It explains current thermal challenges in the field of microelectronics and moves to commonly used materials, where it adds carbon allotropes into the scope, with a special focus on graphite foils. In the last part, this paper contains a use case of the pyrolytic graphite sheet in thermal management.

Energy usage of beer production
Maťa, Jakub ; Tuhovčák, Ján (referee) ; Hejčík, Jiří (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the issue of energy consumption of beer production. The first part focuses on the technology of beer production itself, the understanding of which is a key prerequisite for assessing the possibility of using a heat pump for this process. The main part then describes the individual processes and their energy consumption. Finally, it evaluates the use of a heat pump and shows if it could reduce the energy requirements of beer production.

Energy supply for greenhouse production
Najbrtová, Zuzana ; Poláčik, Ján (referee) ; Pospíšil, Jiří (advisor)
The import of the vegetable has prevailed in the long run over the own production. In connection with this reality and increasing demand for the food with higher quality the production greenhouse is more often built. The providing heat, cold and electricity for the year-round operation is related to the construction and working of these objects. The theoretical part of this theses describes possible ways how to cover energy consumption for the model greenhouse in Kožichovice, Třebíč region. The heat losses and the year-round heat consumption were stated for the selected model and compared with the exact values from Kožichovice. The following method of energy supply was selected based on the calculated energy consumption - the separate cogeneration unit, cooperation of several cogeneration units, a biogas station, a heat pump and central heating system. These methods of energy supply were subjected to technical and economical comparison.
