  1. 6. Dynamics of a CRAFT : A simulation study on a Counter Rotating vertical Axis Floating Tilting wind turbine

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Benjamin Hedlund Peters; Linda Goude; [2023]
    Keywords : wind power; counter rotating; contra rotating; offshore wind; floating wind power; vertical axis wind turbine; VAWT; renewable energy;

    Abstract : In this thesis the Counter Rotating vertical Axis Floating Tilting wind turbine (CRAFT) has been explored by creating a simulation model in the program Simulink. The CRAFT prototype is a new type of wind turbine under development by World Wide Wind and Uppsala University with the aim to produce a large scale floating vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with two cone shaped counter rotating turbines.

  3. 7. Electrically Assisted Turbocharger: Modelling And Control Strategy

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

    Author : Erik Vandor; Gabriel Ehlin; [2022]
    Keywords : EAT; VGT; VNT; Hybrid powertrain; electric turbocharger;

    Abstract : A major cause of CO2 emissions today is fossil fuel vehicles, and lowering these emissions is of key importance, resulting in increasing electrification and hybridisation nowadays. Turbochargers have been used for a long time to recycle exhaust gas heat losses to improve engine performance by compressing the intake air. READ MORE

  4. 8. Fault current injection from Inverter Based Generation in the distribution grid : A case study of distribution grid on the Swedish island of Gotland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Farsad Mansori; [2022]
    Keywords : Distribution generator; Inverter-Based Distributed Generation; Inverter Based Generation; DFIG; PSCAD; Distribution grid; Overcurrent protection;

    Abstract : This work proposes recommendations for new guidelines for fault current injection on a distribution grid. These guidelines will help improve the transition towards renewable electrical energy generation. READ MORE

  5. 9. Damping of sub-synchronous control interactions with a STATCOM : Wind farms & series compensated power lines

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Leonardo Alvarez Urrutia; [2022]
    Keywords : Sub-Synchronous Control Interactions; Power Systems; STATCOM; Network Stability; Doubly-Fed Induction Generator; Impedance-Based Stability Analysis;

    Abstract : The power converter is one of the key components in power system applications such as high voltage direct current (HVDC) systems and the grid connection of intermittent sources such as wind and solar power. However, the increased penetration of converter-based generation introduces challenges, such as sub-synchronous interaction between the converter control system and the grid. READ MORE

  6. 10. Predictive Study of Flame status inside a combustor of a gas turbine using binary classification

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

    Author : Sreenand Sasikumar; [2022]
    Keywords : Binary Classification; Random Forest; SVM; XGBoost; Logistic Regression; Extra-trees; GasTurbine; Flame Detection;

    Abstract : Quick and accurate detection of flame inside a gas turbine is very crucial to mitigaterisks in power generation. Failure of flame detection increases downtime and maintenancecosts and on rare occasions it may cause explosions due to buildup of incombustible fuel inside the combustion chamber. READ MORE
