  2. 2. Thermal Study of a Submerged Substation for Wave Power

    Author : Antoine Baudoin; Cecilia Boström; Didier Saury; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave power; marine substation; heat transfer; natural convection; CFD; FEM; thermal management;

    Abstract : At the Division of Electricity of Uppsala University, a wave power concept is being developed.It relies on wave energy converters, one buoy and one linear generator placed on the seabed, connected together to a submerged substation. The mechanical design is kept as simple as possible to ensure reliability. READ MORE

  3. 3. Cooling Strategies for Wave Power Conversion Systems

    Author : Antoine Baudoin; Cecilia Boström; Anne Blavette; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave power; power conversion system; thermal management; power elctronics; passive cooling; natural convection.;

    Abstract : The Division for Electricity of Uppsala University is developing a wave power concept. The energy of the ocean waves is harvested with wave energy converters, consisting of one buoy and one linear generator. The units are connected in a submerged substation. The mechanical design is kept as simple as possible to ensure reliability. READ MORE

  4. 4. 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

  5. 5. Offshore Marine Substation for Grid-Connection of Wave Power Farms : An Experimental Approach

    Author : Rickard Ekström; Karin Thomas; Frans Dijkhuizen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave power; Offshore Marine Substation; Grid-Connection; Electrical Systems; Voltage-Source Inverter; On-load Tap Change; Cascaded H-bridge Multilevel Inverter; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Abstract : Wave power is a renewable energy source with great potential, which is why there are more than a hundred ongoing wave power projects around the world. At the Division of Electricity, Uppsala University, a point-absorber type wave energy converter (WEC) has been proposed and developed. READ MORE
