  1. 16. Testing and analysis of an intelligent electronic device (IED) prototype for MTDC overhead line application

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Ashen Gomes; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A key problem faced with the implementation of a multi-terminal direct current (MTDC) grid is fault mitigation. One method extensively researched in mitigating a fault in MTDC is to use protection intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) and fast direct current circuit breakers (DCCBs). READ MORE

  2. 17. Implementation of Collisions in FEMIC for Modelling of the RF Heating with a Lower Hybrid Resonance

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Léo Belleil; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Fusion energy is a potential sustainable solution to provide clean energy for the human society. The fusion reaction requires that the ionised fuel (plasma) is heated to extreme temperatures. Magnetic confinement is used to keep the plasma away from the wall and the components mounted on it.
