2. 6. Enhancements in Dielectric Response Characterization of Insulation Materials

   Author : Xiangdong Xu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; harmonic limited waveform; air reference method; contact-free electrode; geometric corrections.; frequency domain spectroscopy; Dielectric characterization;

   Abstract : The increasing demand of integrating various renewable energy recourses in power system requires extensive use of power electronic solutions, such as HVDC and FACTS, as these techniques allow energy conversion between different frequencies and serves to stabilize the network. Consequently, electric stresses other than traditional 50/60 Hz sinusoidal voltage stress are acting on high voltage insulation materials. READ MORE

4. 7. Rechargeable Aqueous Batteries Based on Available Resources : Investigation and Development towards Efficient Battery Performance

   Author : Mylad Chamoun; Dag Noréus; Gunnar Svensson; Jekabs Grins; Ann Mari Svensson; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; rechargeable aqueous batteries; alkaline electrolytes; aqueous sulfate electrolytes; zinc electrodes; manganese dioxide electrodes; iron electrodes; air electrodes; oxygen electrocatalysts; Inorganic Chemistry; oorganisk kemi;

   Abstract : Batteries employing water based electrolytes enable extremely low manufacturing costs and are inherently safer than Li-ion batteries. Batteries based on zinc, manganese dioxide, iron, and air have high energy relevancy, are not resource restricted, and can contribute to large scale energy storage solutions. READ MORE

5. 8. Characteristics of streamer discharges in air and along insulating surfaces

   Author : Lan Gao; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Fysik; Physics; Fysik; Electricity; Esp The Study Of Transients and Discharges; elektricitetslära; ssk studiet av transienter och urladdning;

   Abstract : Power quality is dependent on the dielectric properties of the insulators used throughout the power generation and power transmission utilities. Knowledge of the pre-discharge stage associated with the electrical breakdown across outdoor insulators is essential if one is to improve the performance of these insulators under various electrical and environmentalconditions.

6. 9. Fuel Cells and Biogas

   Author : Lars Hedström; Per Alvfors; Peter Lund; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; air bleed; biogas; carbon dioxide; carbon monoxide; current distribution; dilution; efficiency; energy conversion; energy systems; experimental; fuel cell; fuel cell systems; PEFC; poisoning; reformate; SOFC; Chemical energy engineering; Kemisk energiteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis concerns biogas-operated fuel cells. Fuel cell technology may contribute to more efficient energy use, reduce emissions and also perhaps revolutionize current energy systems. The technology is, however, still immature and has not yet been implemented as dominant in any application or niche market. READ MORE

7. 10. Numerical modelling of positive electrical discharges in long air gaps

   Author : Oscar Diaz; Vernon Cooray; Raul Montano; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; high voltage techniques; numerical modeling; electrical discharge in gases; streamer mechanism; leader channel; Engineering Science with specialization in Atmospheric Discharges; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot atmosfäriska urladdningar;

   Abstract : This dissertation deals with research on the numerical modelling of electrical discharges in laboratory long air gaps excited with positive switching impulses. It begins with the preliminary work of several scientists during the last decades, making a detailed analysis of different approaches for modelling all the stages in a full discharge. READ MORE
