  1. 1. Evaluation of potential marine current turbine sites in North American waters

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Tim Andersson; Muhammad Arsal Akram; Carl-Henrik Carlnäs; Tiffany Salisbury; [2020]
    Keywords : vertical axis; marine current turbines; alaska; florida;

    Abstract : Suitable locations for marine current power generation were scouted. The specific turbines considered in this project are vertical axis turbines and require an water velocity of 0.8 m/s to start and has a system efficiency of 20%. READ MORE

  2. 2. Analysis of Hybrid Offshore Floating Wind and Marine Power

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för ekonomi, teknik och naturvetenskap

    Author : Sai Varun kollappillai Murugan; [2018]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Wind energy is a major part of renewable energy production. With fossil fuel depletion and climate change at the cusp, it is an absolute need to implement or evolve the current source or utilization of renewable energy. The wind has been dominating the onshore for many decades and offshore wind turbines are available at shallow depths. READ MORE

  4. 4. Spectral Analysis of Flame Emission for Optimization of Combustion Devices on Marine Vessels

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik

    Author : Panagiota Stamatoglou; [2014]
    Keywords : Premixed flames; Equivalence ratio; Chemiluminescence; Partial least squared regression; Flame monitoring; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Chemiluminescent emission from OH*, CH* and C2* radicals and its dependence on the equivalence ratio is being investigated in the current study. The aim of this project is to use the results for combustion control on marine vessels and safety checks. READ MORE

  5. 5. Control of marine current energy conversion system

    University essay from Elektricitetslära

    Author : Erik Nyhlén; [2010]
    Keywords : passive stall; load control; marine current; control system;

    Abstract : This thesis involves the development of a system for control of a marine current energy conversion system. The control system is developed on the principles of load control, i.e. it aims to control the rotational speed of the turbine by controlling the power extracted from the generator. READ MORE
