1. 16. Wind Vector Estimation by Drone

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Author : EDVIN KUGELBERG; OSCAR ANDERSSON; [2020]
   Keywords : Mechatronics; Drone Simulation; UAV; Wind Measuring; WindVector Estimation; Quadcopter Project.;

   Abstract : An original approach for measuring wind speed and direction by the use ofdrones was proposed and compared to an existing one. The original approach allowed the drone to drift with the wind and use the translatory velocity for input into a non-linear estimator, while the existing approach used a stationary hovering drone and its tilt for input to an estimator.

3. 17. Experimental and CFD Study of Heat Pickup in Cooling System Hoses

   University essay from KTH/Strömningsmekanik och Teknisk Akustik

   Author : August Borg; Michael Owen; [2019]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : This thesis investigates a process known as heat pickup which occurs in vehicle cooling system hoses. Heat pickup is an unwanted side effect of temperature differences in a car underhood compartment, whereby excess heat is tranferred into the coolant running through the cooling system hoses, affecting its operating temperature.

4. 18. Nanogrid For Renewable Off-GridSystem : Nanogrid For Renewable Off-GridSystem

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

   Author : Chukwuebuka Louis Onyia; [2019]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Power grids utilize large central generating stations which entails the use of long transmission lines to deliver power to consumers. This approach poses some challenges such as line loses and carbon dioxide (CO2) emission into the environment from the burning of fossil fuels from such large generators. READ MORE

5. 19. Compact safety system for automatic flagpole : Flow sensor anemometer

   Abstract : Automating tasks and processes are becoming more and more common in both corporate and everyday life. The aim of this project is to assist the company Hotswap in the development of a safety system for an existing automatic flagpole. READ MORE

6. 20. Local Economic Effects of Solar Panels and Onshore Wind Turbines: Evidence from German counties

   University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

   Author : Victor Smid; [2019]
   Keywords : Renewables; GDP; Employment; Local Effects;

   Abstract : There is an abundance of literature on the economic effects of renewable energy stimulation at the national level, but the local effects of deployment have received relatively little academic attention. Against the backdrop of increases in local opposition against renewable energy plants, this thesis studies the local effects of solar and onshore wind energy capacity expansions in Germany. READ MORE
