  1. 6. District Heating Sensitivity to Heat Demand Reductions and Electricity Market Dynamics

    Author : Magnus Åberg; Ewa Wäckelgård; Dag Henning; Joakim Widén; Louise Trygg; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Teknisk fysik; Engineering Science;

    Abstract : Sweden and the rest of the EU member states have to reduce primary energy use andemissions of CO2, and increase the use of renewable energy sources according to the EUclimate change package “20-20-20”. To do this, the energy systems need to use less fossilfuel and to utilise energy resources more efficiently. READ MORE

  2. 7. Grid Integration and Impact of a Wave Power System

    Author : Arvind Parwal; Cecilia Boström; Damir Šljivac; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; ANN; buck-boost converter; current control; energy storage system; force control; flicker; FPGA control; grid integartion; harmonics; linear generator; PHIL; microgrid; voltage variation; wave energy; WEC; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : Increasing energy consumption and concern for carbon emissions has boosted the demand for renewable energy production. The focus on renewable energy has gained much attention in wind, solar, hydro and wave power generations. Wave power has great potential due to its high energy density but there are challenges as well. READ MORE

  3. 8. Adaptation of wave power plants to regions with high tides

    Author : Mohd Nasir Ayob; Rafael Waters; Johan Abrahamsson; Ian Masters; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave energy; Tides; Wave Hub; Lysekil research site; Control system; Tidal compensator; Wave energy converter.; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : The wave energy converter (WEC) developed at Uppsala University is based on the concept of a heaving point absorber with a linear generator placed on the seafloor. The translator inside the generator oscillates in a linear fashion and is connected via a steel wire to a point absorbing buoy. READ MORE

  4. 9. Measurement and modelling of unbalanced magnetic pull in hydropower generators

    Author : Mattias Wallin; Urban Lundin; Antero Arkkio; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Damper winding; eddy currents; field winding short circuit; finite element method; hydropower generator; parallel circuits; rotor eccentricity; salient poles; synchronous generators; synchronous machines; UMP; unbalanced magnetic pull.; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : Hydropower research is often perceived to be an old and exhausted field of study but with ageing equipment and the need for more intermittent operation caused by an increased share of other renewable energy sources new challenges lie ahead.The main focus of this dissertation are the electromagnetic forces resulting from nonuniform air gap flux, whether it be caused by rotor eccentricity or a faulty field winding.

  5. 10. Experimental investigation of a Kaplan runner under steady-state and transient operations

    Author : Kaveh Amiri; Gabriel Dan Ciocan; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Hydropower is a key part in electricity production nowadays. Hydropower electricity production rose to 3579.5 TWh in 2013, ranked as the second source of electricity production in the world after fossil fuels. It is the principle source of renewable electricity production, producing 16. READ MORE
