The thesis examines which energy production methods are suitable together with seasonal storage of energy at UiT the arctic university of Norway in Narvik. Nordkraft has provided the subject which has been examined. The location of UiT Narvik together with its areas and storage volumes have been examined for what power production methods and energy storage methods are suitable for this location. ...

The operation schedule of the power generation units in electrical power systems is determined by the optimisation problem known as unit commitment (UC), aiming at minimising the total cost considering the generation constraints. To obtain a feasible solution from the network perspective, the security-constrained UC (SCUC) problem has been defined to embed the network constraints in the optimisation ...

Denne rapporten presenterer design og simuleringer av en toakset solcellerigg. Denne bestpunktsporingen riggen fungerer utelukkende basert på utgangseffekten til solcellepanelet montert til det. Det bruker ikke noen solsensor til å orientere solcellepanelet. Posisjonen til solen er beregnet basert på tid og stedsinformasjon. Siden dette solpanelet vil bli montert her på UiT, Norges Arktiske Universitet, ...

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 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 ...

"The role of renewable sources of energy in combating climate change cannot be over-emphasized. Profound measures taken especially by the European Union (EU) in reducing global rising temperatures has seen massive development of renewable sources of energy such as solar and wind. This strategic plan taken by the EU has led to the an increase in national efforts to promote further development of ...

In this paper the subsumption theory is applied to flight control through composite rotations where multiple tasks can be defined as simple rotations. The tasks can then be arranged as a hierarchy, where the primary task is always fully pursued, and conflicting lower level tasks are removed by the primary rotation. The concept is applied to a group of uavs that move through an urban terrain while ...

This article addresses some challenging perspectives related to offering take-home exams in mathematics at university level. The challenges arose during work on a previous article where four perspectives originating from Bjerrum Nielsen’s framework (2003) were used to analyze universities’ assessment methods during the Covid lockdown in our country. The perspectives had some ethical considerations ...
