  1. 6. Frequency Stabilization in low Inertia Systems With Battery Power Injections

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Leif Lundin; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The challenges for the power system of the future becomes increasingly larger when large amountsof renewable energy sources are integrated, and when conventional forms of power such asnuclear power are phased out. This results in a greater difficulty in quickly deploying FrequencyContainment Reserves in the event of of power balance disturbance, to stabilize frequency andvoltage. READ MORE

  3. 7. Model-Level Timing Analysis for UML-RT Capsules

    University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Author : Niclas Ståhlbom; [2023]
    Keywords : computer science; software engineering; algorithm; real-time; real-time systems; UML-RT; capsule diagram; WCET; analysis; WCET analysis;

    Abstract : Real-time systems surround every facet of our lives. They can be found in anything from everyday objects like mobile phones and washing machines to objects critical to life and infrastructure including heart rate monitors and nuclear power plants. As time progresses these systems are becoming ever more complex. READ MORE

  4. 8. A VVER1000 primary side model in Apros

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Karl-Edvin Strand; [2023]
    Keywords : Apros; VVER1000; PWR; Modelling; HPIS; Boron acid; Apros; VVER1000; PWR; Modellering; HPIS; Borsyra;

    Abstract : Nuclear power plants generate electricity by means of splitting atoms. The basic safety requirements and objectives are to protect the people, society, and the environment from radiological accidents, limit harmful effects of ionizing radiation during operation and take all reasonable practical steps to prevent radiological accidents.

  5. 9. Uncertainty Analysis : Severe Accident Scenario at a Nordic Nuclear Power Plant

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Institutionen för information och teknik

    Author : Josefin Hedly; Mikaela De Young; [2023]
    Keywords : Nuclear power plant; microdata analysis; Random Forest; k-Nearest Neighbor; SVM;

    Abstract : Nuclear Power Plants (NPP) undergo fault and sensitivity analysis with scenario modelling to predict catastrophic events, specifically releases of Cesium 137 (Cs-137). The purpose of this thesis is to find which of 108 input-features from Modular Accident Analysis Program (MAAP)simulation code are important, when there is large release of Cs-137 emissions.

  6. 10. Development of an investment model for pumped storage hydropower

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Pontus Gustavsson; Eric Swanmark; [2023]
    Keywords : pumped storage hydropower; investment models; energy storage; grid balancing;

    Abstract : The energy market is evolving, with a prediction of heavily increased consumption and, consequently, increased production. In parallel, EU directives with targets prioritising fossil-free electricity production, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and becoming climate neutral by 2050, poses a challenge for the current state of electricity production in the Nordics.
