  1. 16. Grid impact study of frequency regulation with EVs

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

    Author : Emma Blomgren; [2018]
    Keywords : Electric vehicles EVs ; grid impact; ancillary services; frequency regulation; FCR-N; vehicle-to-grid V2G ; voltage; reactive power; load profile; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The ongoing grid paradigm shift has resulted in synchronous generators currently being phased out. As the generators have been providing ancillary services, such as frequency control regulation, this means that new technologies to perform ancillary services need to be developed and evaluated.

  3. 17. Assessment of window systems considering solar and thermal performance

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Evangelos Marios Liaros; Frank Gergaud; [2018]
    Keywords : window systems; solar energy; thermal transmittance; dynamic thermal modelling tools; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The solar and thermal performance of window is subject to a wide range of parameters. To simulate the energy performance is therefore difficult, and limitations might occur depending on the complexity of each case. READ MORE

  4. 18. Alternative energy supply study for a cottage in Vifors

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Energisystem

    Author : Mikel Lumbier Fernandez; [2018]
    Keywords : Building heating demand; IDA ICE; Solar thermal collectors; Heat pump; Combi systems;

    Abstract : The present master thesis was done during the spring of 2018. A cottage located in Vifors is studied with regard to its heating requirements. At the time of the study, the house could not be inhabited the whole year because there was no tap hot water available and the space heating demand was covered by electricity. READ MORE

  5. 19. Energy mapping of public buildings : A study at Älvkarlebyhus

    University essay from Högskolan i Gävle/Avdelningen för bygg- energi- och miljöteknik

    Author : Kieran Crowley; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The aim of this report is to identify all energy systems in the Skutskärs Vårdcentral and Folktandvården building, Centralgatan 12 building and the Library building to be studied in this report and carry out an investigation on whether the energy systems efficiency may be increased by improving on the elements or factors that affect the energy systems. A model of the buildings energy systems were created in Microsoft excels using the steady state method and modifying it to calculate an average heating session. READ MORE

  6. 20. An early design tool/method for assessing the performance of complex fenestration systems

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign

    Author : Anton Hendrix; Dimosthenis Arampatzis; [2017]
    Keywords : Design tool; Glazing; Shading; User predictability; Solar gains; View; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : It is common knowledge that shading systems and solar control glasses are used to avoid glare and overheating at expenses of daylight. In Dynamic Thermal Modelling tools, there is no assessment method where the shading use is expressed when predicting the building performance. READ MORE
