  1. 21. Damping Profile Research for Corpower Ocean's Wave Energy Converter

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Tianzhi Zhou; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : With increasing energy demanding and greenhouse gases from fossil fuel, the need to develop new ways to convert energy in sustainable methods is becoming more and more urgent. Corpower Ocean AB designed a point absorber type wave energy converter to harvest energy from surface wave. READ MORE

  3. 22. Influence of Na doping on tunnelling rear contact passivation in Cu(In,Ga)Se2 solar cells

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Fasta tillståndets elektronik

    Author : Markus Sköld; [2016]
    Keywords : Sodium; Na; CIGS; solar cells; Passivation; rear contact; Al2O3; tunnelling; tunneling;

    Abstract : In this thesis Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) solar cells with different sodiumdoping of the CIGS absorber and varying Al2O3 rear surface passivationlayer thickness have been manufactured and electrically characterised. Baseline samples and samples without passivation were used asreferences for the passivated samples. READ MORE

  4. 23. Modeling and Concept Design of Wave Energy Device

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Rickard Holmgren; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : It has been suggested that it is feasible to extract energy from ocean waves which may be used to generate electricity. This thesis is centered on a wave energy converter system, which is known as a point absorber, which in its most simple design may be seen as a buoy moving up and down due to the wave motions.

  5. 24. Volumetric Solar Receiver for a Parabolic Dish and Micro-Gas Turbine system : Design, modelling and validation using Multi-Objective Optimization

    University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Author : Roberta Mancini; [2015]
    Keywords : volumetric receiver; parabolic dish; OMSoP; micro-gas turbine; multi-objective optimization; ray tracing;

    Abstract : Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) constitutes one suitable solution for exploiting solar resources for power generation. In this context, parabolic dish systems concentrate the solar radiation onto a point focusing receiver for small-scale power production. READ MORE
