  1. 1. 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

  2. 2. A Stochastic Control Approach to Include Transfer Limits in Power System Operation

    Author : Magnus Perninge; Lennart Söder; Christopher DeMarco; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Frequency control; power regulating market; power system operation; power system security; stochastic impulse control; transfer capacity; transfer limit;

    Abstract : The main function of the power grid is to transfer electric energy from generating facilities to consumers. To have a reliable and economical supply of electricity, large amounts of electric energy often have to be transferred over long distances. READ MORE

  3. 3. Thermodynamic Cycles using Carbon Dioxide as Working Fluid : CO2 transcritical power cycle study

    Author : Chen Yang; Lundqvist Per; Carlos Infante Ferreria; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The interest in utilizing the energy in low‐grade heat sources and waste heat is increasing. There is an abundance of such heat sources, but their utilization today is insufficient, mainly due to the limitations of the conventional power cycles in such applications, such as low efficiency, bulky size or moisture at the expansion outlet (e.g. READ MORE
