  1. 1. Supportability Engineering in Wind Power Systems - Who Cares? : Considering important stakeholders and their requirements

    Author : Renato Ciganovic; Per Anders Akersten; Marcus Bengtsson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : Supportability; Supportability Engineering; Stakeholders Requirements; Non-functional Requirements; Integrated Logistic Support; Asset Management; Maintenance Support; Logistic Support; Wind Energy; Wind Power; Accessibility; Maintainability; Serviceability; Supported System; Terotechnology; Systemekonomi;

    Abstract : Wind power is one of the fastest growing energy sources, which have advantages in terms of delivering clean, cheap and fast energy. Many actors and organizations have realized this potential, which has lead to exponential growth of the wind power over recent couple of years. READ MORE

  2. 2. Towards Intelligent Power-System Monitoring: Segmentation, Feature Extraction, and Identification of Underlying Causes

    Author : Cuong Le; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; harmonics analysis; Power-system monitoring; segmentation; power-system measurement; power quality; event analysis; signal-processing applications;

    Abstract : The increase in size of modern power systems together with the concept smart grid requires advanced monitoring to ensure system availability, reliability, and power quality. The huge amount of available data no longer permits analysis to be implemented manually and centrally. READ MORE

  3. 3. Turbomachinery in Biofuel Production

    Author : Martin Görling; Mats Westermark; Simon Harvey; Bengt Hylander; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bio-Methanol; Biomass; Gasification; Humidification; Hybrid Cycle; SNG; Chemical energy engineering; Kemisk energiteknik;

    Abstract : The aim for this study has been to evaluate the integration potential of turbo-machinery into the production processes of biofuels. The focus has been on bio-fuel produced via biomass gasification; mainly methanol and synthetic natural gas. The research has been divided into two parts; gas and steam turbine applications.

  4. 4. Integration of Wind Power in Medium Voltage Networks - Voltage Control and Losses

    Author : Ingmar Leisse; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Since some years ago greenhouse gases and especially carbon dioxide have become one of the most widely debated issues. To reduce the emission of carbon dioxide and nuclear waste, renewable energy sources as for example wind power plants have become very successful. READ MORE

  5. 5. Resource mobilisation for energy system transformation

    Author : Kersti Karltorp; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Resource mobilisation; Biorefineries; Energy system transformation; Offshore wind power; Incumbent firms; Competences;

    Abstract : A transition to a sustainable path of development will require that fossil fuels are replaced with renewable energy sources and involve, therefore, a large-scale transformation of the energy system. In the EU, offshore wind power and biorefineries have the potential to play an important role in this transformation. READ MORE
