  1. 1. INDUCTIVE RAILWAY SWITCH POINT HEATING : Improved control algorithm and phase compensation analysis for an inductive turnout heating system, and comparison with a resistive heating system

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Erik Nordlund; [2023]
    Keywords : Inductive switch point heating; Turnout heating; railway turnout heating; Inductive heating;

    Abstract : Railway turnout heating is essential during the winter because snow and ice can hinder the movement of the switch. In Sweden, heating has traditionally been done using resistive heating wires mounted to the stock rail, but the technology is outdated and generally exhibits low efficiency and performance.

    Abstract : The concept of future sustainability is driving efforts toward the efficient improvement of energy systems. District heating systems play a key role in balancing the energy system by improving performance and flexibility. READ MORE

  3. 3. Are Carnot Batteries an Alternative to Converting Coal Power Plants? : An open-sourced technoeconomic optimization approach for testing a new niche for Carnot Batteries.

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Vartan Jakob Ahrens Kayayan; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As Europe transitions away from coal-fired power plants, there is an opportunity to reshape the electrical infrastructure. Many of the current plans are to make a switch to natural gas, another fossil fuel. Refurbishing existing power plants has several advantages. Components can be put to a new purpose. READ MORE

  4. 4. Development of Typical Load Profiles on residential electricity consumption using attribute data on electric vehicles, heating systems and fuse sizes

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Industriell teknik

    Author : Aikaterini Manousidou; Martina Lundberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Typical Load Profiles; electric vehicles; load curves; smart grid; electrification; Velander formula;

    Abstract : It is time to phase out fossil fuels and invest our efforts in green energy production through a major restructuring of the energy system. At the same time, more people are acquiring electric vehicles (EVs), thus creating a higher demand of electricity, and solar panels, allowing the consumer to also be a micro-producer. READ MORE

  5. 5. A novel approach to model an energy flexibility market using temperature proxies

    University essay from KTH/Optimeringslära och systemteori

    Author : Arvid Orback; Robin Sandström; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The global demand for energy increases. This causes a problem concering the strain put on energy grids and energy production. The problem occurs when the aggregated energy consumption peaks temporarily and is known as peak loads. READ MORE
