  1. 21. 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

  2. 22. Voltage Support of Transmission Grids Using Resources Located in the Underlying Lower Voltage Networks : Unlocking the Potential of Distributed Generation Reactive Power Capabilities

    Author : Stefan Stanković; Lennart Söder; Andrew Keane; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; reactive power support; voltage control; voltage stability; reactive power planning; inverter-based generation; active distribution networks; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The path to sustainable, fossil-free future leads to inevitable energy transition towards renewable energy sources. A part of this transition includes replacement of conventional transmission system connected power plants with distributed renewables plants such as wind power. READ MORE

  3. 23. Experimental Study on Truck Related Power Losses: The Churning Losses in a Transmission Model and Active Flow Control at an A-pillar of Generic Truck Cabin Model

    Author : Erwin Adi Hartono; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : The fight with global warming constantly forces vehicle manufacturers to innovate, in order to be able to reduce the CO2 emissions of their product. This means that marginal efficiency gains in every component are considered beneficial for total reduction of CO2 emissions. READ MORE

  4. 24. Quantitative vulnerability analysis of electric power networks

    Author : Åke J. Holmgren; Torbjörn Thedéen; Lars-Göran Mattsson; Terje Aven; KTH; []
    Keywords : Safety Analysis; vulnerability; homeland security; risk analysis; network; electric power system; blackout; power law; statistical analysis; graph theory; branching process; game theory; Säkerhetsanalys; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : Disturbances in the supply of electric power can have serious implications for everyday life as well as for national (homeland) security. A power outage can be initiated by natural disasters, adverse weather, technical failures, human errors, sabotage, terrorism, and acts of war. READ MORE

  5. 25. Some Control Applications in Electric Power Systems

    Author : Magnus Akke; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
