  1. 1. Control of carbon dioxide capture from biomass CHP plants : Designing a suitable control system to realize the flexible operation of the CO2 capture system

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

    Author : Tanmmay Rout; [2023]
    Keywords : Carbon capture; biomass fired combined heat and power plant; MEA based chemical absorption; flue gas; dynamic operation; PI controllers;

    Abstract : This degree project studies the integration of carbon capture system into biomass fired combined heat and power (bio-CHP) plants. The key disturbances from bio-CHP plants include flue gas flow rate, carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration and available heat for the reboiler because the use of versatile biomass and the dynamic operation of CHP plants results in large fluctuations in the properties of flue gas and the heat input for CO2 capture.

    Keywords : Physics; Energy Physics; Energy; Renewable Energy; Wave Power; CorPower Ocean; Point Absorber; Array Modelling; Farm modelling; Fysik; Energifysik; Energi; Vågkraft; Förnyelsebar Energi;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a model has been developed to analyze the behavior of wave energy converter arrays in the frequency domain. This development serves the purpose of establishing an in-house model tool for array modelling for CorPower Ocean. READ MORE

  4. 3. Design of a small-scale wave energy converter

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Sumaya Farjana; [2022]
    Keywords : small-scale point absorber; scaling factors; damping coefficient;

    Abstract : In this study, a small-scale point absorber wave energy converter has been designed contemplating a full-scaled point absorber in the Mediterranean Sea state. The scaling factor for the small-scaled version has been determined by the damping coefficient calculation of the power take-off in 1:10, 1:15, and 1:20 scaling factors. READ MORE

  5. 4. Multidisciplinary Modelling of Water Piston Oscillations in Wave Energy Converters : Assessment of Flow Resistance Through CFD Modelling with Fluid Structure Interactions

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörs- och kemivetenskaper (from 2013)

    Author : Linnéa Tebelius; [2022]
    Keywords : Fluid Mechanics; Point Absorber; CFD; WEC; Waves4Power; Strömnigsmekanik; Point Absorber; CFD; WEC; Waves4Power;

    Abstract : As the world’s need for electricity increases, so does its demand for sustainable energy with low to no greenhouse gas emissions. One of these renewable sources of energy is the Ocean which is one of the world’s largest and most predictable energy source, where the extraction of energy can be from waves or tidal current, with zero greenhouse gas emissions during production.

  6. 5. Design and Development of a Data Acquisition and Communication System for Point Absorber Tracking

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Balakrishnan Kannan; [2021]
    Keywords : Data Acquisition System; Raspberry Pi; Controller; Processor; Wave buoy; Lysekil; wave energy; measurements; IMU; GPS; Strain gauge; force; Solar energy; Battery; communication; 4G; internet; Remote tracking; Shell; Python;

    Abstract : The recent trend in generating energy from the waves has led to several advancements in the methods and the various research is conducted across the world, to study the behaviour of point absorbers on the waves. The point absorbers such as wave buoys are designed to move according to the waves and the generator that is mechanically coupled with the buoys, generate electricity. READ MORE
