In today’s world, electrical energy is a necessity. The dependency on electricity is increasing day by day which caused the system to work under a stress state close to stability limits and disturbances. An efficient power system supplying electrical energy must be reliable, stable, secure, and reasonable to meet consumer needs. The power demand depends on several factors and weather is one of the ...

The inevitable growing demand for electrical power, depleting sources of conventional power generation, and world wide concern about global warming are major factors to boost the trend of renewable integration in grids. This rising trend is causing many technical and operational challenges where one of the most prominent problem is the overvoltage caused by distributed generation units, interfaced ...

"Designing an all-electric battery vessel, knowledge of the dynamic performance of the electrical propulsion plant becomes crucial to produce adequate estimates of needed battery capacity. An energy management system is to control the on-board power flow and ensure energy efficient operation of the vessel. This thesis presents a solution for dynamic simulation of an all-electric battery vessel based ...

In recent years drone racing using human pilots have increased in popularity. This combined with the increased usage of autonomous driving vehicles have sparked a new field of interest which is Autonomous Racing Drones competitions. This thesis explores the field of drone design and avionics with the conclusion of presenting the first Racing Drone prototype that can be used in future work made by ...

God kontroll av reaktiv effekt er en helt nødvendig del av et velfungerende kraftsystem. Reaktiv effekt er funksjon av spenning og lastvinkel, men er i størst grad påvirket av spenningen under normale forhold. Det finnes mange forskjellige reaktive ressurser i kraftsystemet, og de har forskjellige egenskaper og karakteristikker. Statiske reaktive ressurser er kondensatorbatterier, reaktorer og ...

This thesis hovers over the basic introduction to Silicon Carbide (Metal Oxide Semiconductors Field-effect Transistor) MOSFET switches and the circuit designing of Current Source Invertors using SiC MOSFET switches. The thesis covers the basic grounds for all the steps needed in the implementation of hardware design for half bridge, full bridge and three phase CSIs in the future. Firstly, a ...

Recently, the growth of inverter-based generations (IBGs) like solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind turbine generators in the form of microgrids (MGs) has been increasing. However, control of voltage and frequency becomes a challenging task for MGs especially when they operate in an islanded mode, due to the inherent low-inertia feature of IBGs compared to a grid-tied mode where there is a grid support. ...

Low-frequency oscillations in the power system have major repercussions on power system stability and the objective of maximum power transfer. Local and global control strategies have been developed to dampen and impede these oscillations. A modern local control strategy is supplying the automatic voltage regulation (AVR) of the generator with a power system stabilizer (PSS). Modern global control ...

Snø og andre ting kan reflektere lys på solcellepanelene slik at de produsere mer energi. Refleksjonene kan gjøre slik at den optimale vinkelen til panelene ikke er rett mot solen. Denne rapporten går fort igjennom noen forslag til optimaliseringsalgoritmer for vinklene til solcellepanelene. Videre går den dypere inn på en algoritme som heter «test og sjekk». Kort fortalt går denne algoritmen ...

This thesis explores various charging standards for electric vehicles with the goal to find a standard that can be implemented in an electric maritime vessel (EMV). Combined charging system 2.0 (CCS2) is selected and the standard is explained in detail along with the necessary power electronics. Several Matlab and dSPACE simulations is made to test the charging and communication. A laboratory ...
