  1. 1. Assessing the Benefits of Fossil-Free Gas Turbines in Distribution Networks : A Case Study in Västerås

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

    Author : Fredrik Hansell; Axel Vällfors; [2023]
    Keywords : Gas turbine; power system stability; balancing markets; hydrogen; eMethanol; Gasturbin; kraftsystemstabilitet; balansmarknader; vätgas; e-metanol;

    Abstract : As the share of weather-dependent renewable electricity production increases, the demand for power system flexibility grows. In the Swedish power system, gas turbines have historically been utilised for back-up power generation. READ MORE

  3. 2. Analysis of uncertainties in fatigue load assessment : a study on one Kaplan hydro turbine during start operation

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

    Author : Annica Gustafsson; [2019]
    Keywords : Hydropower; Hydro turbine runner; Uncertainty analysis; Fatigue load; Fatigue damage; Propagation of uncertainty.; Vattenkraft; Löphjul; Osäkerhetsanalys; Utmattning; Delskada; Fortplantning av osäkeheter.;

    Abstract : In the future, hydropower plants are expected to operate more flexibly. This will lead to a more varied operation of the turbine and the generator, such as more start and stop in order to stabilise the frequency in the grid. Studies show that these transient operations are more costly in terms of fatigue degradation, i.e. READ MORE

  4. 3. A VIEW INTO FUTURE POTENTIAL ICE THROW POLICIES AND THEIR EFFECT ON THE YIELD OF A VIRTUAL WIND FARM

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Marc Noël de Wild; [2017]
    Keywords : Wind Power; Safety Policy; Ice-Throw; Ice Fall;

    Abstract : There is a growth of wind power development in icing climates, in which ice accumulation on objects takes place. This leads to specific challenges including ice throw, the detachment of ice from wind turbine blades. READ MORE

  5. 4. Sustainable Business Model for Renewable Energy Technology; A case study of TXG Turbine AB

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Graduate School

    Author : Francesco Speciale; [2016-09-30]
    Keywords : business model; business model innovation; sustainable business model; value proposition design; sustainable value proposition; renewable energy and business model for renewable energy technology;

    Abstract : The concept of Business Model has gained a lot of interest from both companies and academics since the end of the last century. Well-established frameworks such as the Business Model Canvas and the Value Proposition Canvas are widely applied throughout a variety of industries. READ MORE

  6. 5. “Experimental Assessment of the Effectiveness of Active Flaps to Reduce the Blade Root Bending Moment of Wind Turbine Blades”

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Author : Adriano Sanchez Pena; [2016]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis intends to asses the application of local flow control to wind turbines blades, in order to demonstrate that the normal root benging moment on the blades can be reduced, with the aim of increasing wind turbines life span, reducing regular maintenance and further to make a contribution to current research on wind turbines. It develops the subject by first assessing the flow characteristics of the Großer Windkannal (GroWiKa) in the Hermann-Föttinger Institute (HFI) at the Technical University of Berlin and continues with establishing the effectiveness of local flow control on the Reasearch Wind Turbine (BeRT) designed by the institute.
