  2. 1. On Reliability Methods Quantifying Risks to Transfer Capability in Electric Power Transmission Systems

    Author : Johan Setréus; Lina Bertling; Roland Eriksson; Stefan Arnborg; Lars Wredenberg; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Power transmission reliability; power system security; reliability modeling; risk analysis for power systems; power system planning; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : In the operation, planning and design of the transmission system it is of greatest concern to quantify the reliability security margin to unwanted conditions. The deterministic N-1 criterion has traditionally provided this security margin to reduce the consequences of severe conditions such as widespread blackouts. READ MORE

  4. 2. Identifying critical components for system reliability in power transmission systems

    Author : Johan Setréus; Rajeev Thottappillil; Stefan Arnborg; Patrik Hilber; Liisa Haarla; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; transmission system reliability; component reliability importance index; Great Britain power system; power flow analysis; system adequacy; system security; system vulnerability;

    Abstract : Large interruptions of power supply in the transmission system have considerable impact on modern society. The goal for the transmission system operator (TSO) is to prevent and mitigate such events with optimal decisions in design, planning, operation and maintenance. READ MORE

  5. 3. Cooperative Communications : Link Reliability and Power Efficiency

    Author : Tafzeel ur Rehman Ahsin; Ben Slimane; Xavier Lagrange; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cooperative Communications; Link Reliability; Power Efficiency; Energy Efficiency; Network Coding; Cooperative Relaying; SRA - ICT; SRA - Informations- och kommunikationsteknik;

    Abstract : Demand for high data rates is increasing rapidly for the future wireless generations, due to the requirement ofubiquitous coverage for wireless broadband services. More base stations are needed to deliver these services, in order tocope with the increased capacity demand and inherent unreliable nature of wireless medium. READ MORE

  6. 4. Condition measuring and lifetime modelling of electrical power transmission equipment

    Author : Per Westerlund; Patrik Hilber; Tommie Lindquist; Carl-Ejnar Sölver; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; disconnectors; circuit breakers; reliability; lifetime; electric contacts; electric power transmission; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The electric grid is important in modern society, so the outages should be few. The transmission grid should have a real high availability, since it transports electrical energy across the country. Then, it is difficult to plan outages for maintenance and installation. READ MORE

  7. 5. On reliability modelling of ageing equipment in electric power systems with regard to the effect of maintenance

    Author : Tommie Lindquist; Prof. Roland Eriksson; Dr. Lina Bertling; Docent Carl-Ejnar Sölver; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical power technology; Maintenance; reliability modelling; electrical power systems; ageing; failure mechanisms; Elkraftteknik; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : Power system maintenance optimisation involves obtaining the minimum total costs, including preventive and corrective maintenance costs and the cost of failures for both supplier and customer. To calculate the cost of failure, information is needed about the equipment reliability characteristics. READ MORE
