Power loss measurements in MV switchgear for Cigré-working group
(Master thesis, 2018)Working group A3.36 from Cigré is studying to what degree simulations can be used to predict the steady state temperature of MV and HV switchgear. The result of this thesis will be provided to the working group. The aim ... -
Power Supply and Control in an Electrified Calcination Process
(Master thesis, 2022)Summary: Concrete as a building material is crucial in today's construction process. However, cement production, which acts as a glue in the concrete, leads to 5 o 7 % of the world's -emissions yearly [1]. In the Paris ... -
Prediktiv Analyse av Data fra BaneNOR - en mulighetsstudie
(Master thesis, 2024)Predictive Analysis indicates patterns in the subsets of data trained on standardized behavior of the railway systems, indicating deterioration or fault waiting to occur, which again accesses the state of life of the ... -
Reactive power market mechanism for pricing
(Master thesis, 2024)The present master thesis addresses reactive power management, a crucial factor for the stability and effectiveness of power systems. Correct valuation and pricing of reactive power are important for efficient operation ... -
Sensitivity analysis of low voltage distribution grid in rural areas with high penetration of PV systems
(Master thesis, 2022)PV systems are one of the most increasing renewable energy sources globally. In Norway, PV systems increase in amount and size, and it is becoming more critical to have solid knowledge in incorporating them into older grid ... -
Simulating Converter System with Energy Storage for Offshore Applications
(Master thesis, 2024)This thesis focuses on simulating a power converter with an energy storage system for peak loads shaving in offshore oil and gas processes and operations. Oil and gas industry operations often encounter peak power demands ... -
Simulation of a PV MPPT-Grid following system with variable irradiance conditions
(Master thesis, 2024)This thesis discusses a 14 kW Photovoltaic Array connected to a grid, being controlled by an MPPT controller to regulate, and track the maximum power while a current controller is being used to adjust the reference signals ... -
Solar Power in Wind Power Park – Evaluating flexible power generation based on real and simulated data from Statkraft Smøla Wind Park
(Master thesis, 2023)Meeting future energy and environmental demands poses new challenges, with one of them being the uncertainty and variability in power production from renewable energies such as solar and wind power due to their dependency ... -
System dynamics of asynchronous generators at islanded grid operation
(Master thesis, 2014-01-23)It is well known that the phenomenon of self-excitation allows the asynchronous generator to operate as a standalone unit. The robustness and low cost of the asynchronous generator makes it beneficial for small hydro power ... -
System Grounding of 132kV Networks
(Master thesis, 2022)As the use of other renewable energy sources such as wind increases to reduce the carbon dioxide emission into the environment, the transmission and distribution network increase, and the Local Vestfold and telemark region ... -
Temperature rise in a load break switch
(Master thesis, 2016)Given a switchgear and two different types of contacts and changeing the material of the crankcase to metal rather then using plastic. There are some limits the IEC has set, with the given changes try to improve the heat ... -
Testing All-in-one-protection for any power distribution application using real time simulation
(Master thesis, 2021)The work was done as part of Master thesis at the Department of Electrical Engineering at USN, Porsgrunn, Norway. -
Thermal capacity and loading assessment for 24 kV XLPE-insulated cables in air
(Master thesis, 2021)Charging large battery packs requires high currents, especially for short-term charging of electric vehicles. The ohmic losses heats up power cables and is the limiting factor for the current capacity. However, the power ... -
Thermal model parameter estimation of a hydroelectric generator using machine learning
(Master thesis, 2020)The synchronous generator have a central role in the power system, and is governed by multi-physics behaviour. A digital twin of the synchronous generator can lead to more efficient utilization in a more safe and reliable ... -
Thermal overloading of MV metal enclosed switchgear
(Master thesis, 2022)Going electric is an important step toward a more environmentally friendly world by reducing greenhouse gases. Some electrical devices might be able to withstand a short-term overloading, which for example can be used for ... -
Thermal solar energy use: Modeling and optimization
(Master thesis, 2015-09-25)The sun in Norway is a very important source of energy due to the large number of hours of sunshine there are in the spring and summer months. For this reason this source of energy could replace the oil and part of the ... -
Utilizing novel laser scanning techniques to anticipate PD inception voltages in HV cable interfaces
(Master thesis, 2024)High-voltage (HV) cable systems are the foundation for the transmission of electricity, but they are susceptible to partial discharges (PD), particularly at joint locations, which can cause insulation failure leading to ... -
