  1. 1. Utilizing Genetic Algorithm and Machine Learning to Optimize a Control System in Generators : Using a PID controller to damp terminal voltage oscillations

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

    Author : Fredrik Strand; [2022]
    Keywords : AVR; AI; data-driven; GA; SVM; GPR; SVR; Ziegler-Nichols; Z-N;

    Abstract : Hydropower is an important part of renewable power production in Sweden. The voltage stability of the already existing hydropower needs to be improved. One way to do this is by improving the control system that damp terminal voltage oscillations. READ MORE

  3. 2. Rotor Dynamic Modeling of Hydropower Rotors by 3D-Finite Element Analysis

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Simon Pääjärvi; [2022]
    Keywords : Rotordynamics; Applied Mechanics; Dynamics; Rotor; Finite Element Analysis; Hydropower; Solid Mechanics; Energy Production;

    Abstract : By using the rotor dynamic capabilities of Simcenter Nastran Rotordynamics, an eigenvalue analysis of 3D-finite element models of the Jeffcott rotor and the overhung rotor were conducted and compared to the results with beam-based, lumped parameter models. The first two critical speeds of the Jeffcott rotor were estimated with variations of 3. READ MORE

  4. 3. Simplified Model For Simulation of Fault Ride Through at Hydropower Units

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för fysik och astronomi

    Author : Sebastian Söderström; [2021]
    Keywords : Fault Ride Through; Hydropower; Simulation; Generator; Simulink; Transient Stability; Gränsbryttid; Vattenkraft; Simulering; Generator; Simulink; Transient Stabilitet;

    Abstract : As new requirements for grid connected generators were implemented, the requirements for evaluating the Fault Ride Through capabilities of the generators became stricter. When refurbishing a power unit, proof that the power unit meet the requirements must be submitted to the authorities. READ MORE

  5. 4. Load following in a Swedish nuclear power plant

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Jacob Bjurenfalk; [2020]
    Keywords : chemical engineering; nuclear power; load following; process engineering; electricity production; APROS; Simulations; swedish power gird; kemiteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The energy system in Sweden is currently under a great transformation, where the part of weather dependent energy sources, so called intermittent sources, like solar and wind power will get greater share in the total production of electricity while the production from stable energy sources like nuclear power is decreasing. For a long time, the nuclear power have been operating at baseload and the hydropower as flexible, though, due to the change in the current power system, nuclear power plants may need to transit to flexible operation and apply load following.

  6. 5. Operation of battery energy storage system for frequency control of hydropower operated in island mode

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

    Author : Amanda Hallblad; [2020]
    Keywords : Battery energy storage system BESS ; hydropower; microgrid MG ; operational strategies; frequency control; PowerFactory;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study is to analyse how a battery energy storage system (BESS) can support the frequency and voltage stability for an islanded microgrid containing a hydropower plant. Two different microgrids, both situated in Sweden, are evaluated. Modelling and dynamic simulations are conducted in the PowerFactory tool. READ MORE
