(English) Climate change is pushing to decarbonize worldwide economies and forcing fossil fuel-based power systems to evolve into power systems based mainly on renewable energies sources (RES). Thus, increasing the energy ...
The main aim of this thesis is investigating energy sustainability in developing countries using useful indicators. As it is known, serious issues such as global warming and inefficient consumption of energy will lead to ...
In lightning protection techniques a basic aspect is the identification of the impact point possible, which is determined by the evolution of the initial phase of the lightning, known as the stepped leader, the ground ...
(English) The main objective of this thesis is to develop and validate simple but sufficiently accurate mathematical models for single-phase and three-phase transformers, by estimating their parameters from simple laboratory ...
Nowadays, many industries are moving towards more electrical systems and components. This is done with the purpose of enhancing the efficiency of their systems while being environmentally friendlier and sustainable. ...
L'actual situació energètica demanda cada cop més d'aplicacions que redueixin el consum energètic. A nivell d'energia elèctrica, i de la conversió d'aquesta a energia mecànica, els nivells d'eficiència energètica són força ...
El desarrollo informático en los últimos años ha posibilitado la utilización de computadoras para simular el comportamiento de los componentes de una red eléctrica, a través de la utilización de modelos matemáticos. Los ...
El presente documento es la tesis doctoral de Alfredo de Blas del Hoyo, dirigida por el Dr.Ing. Ramón Bargalló Perpiñá, realizada en el marco del programa de doctorado de Ingeniería Electromecánica del Departamento de ...
A detail modelling of railway electrical system with energy storages devices is developed in this thesis in order to analyze most of the implemented railway electrical system. The modelling has been realized from a point ...
The proposals for large-scale deployment of renewable energy sources is leading to the need for more cross-border interconnections creating a pan-European power system, at the EU level. Such interconnections may take ...
This thesis discusses the operation of the grid-tied modular multilevel converters (MMC) applied on the dc power transmission, particularly on the medium and high-voltage applications. First, it is presented the evolution ...
The present Ph.D. thesis has been developed following an Industrial Ph.D. program and verses on developing a commercial piece of equipment for teknoCEA, a spin-off company from CITCEA-UPC. The thesis is centered on developing ...
El objeto de este trabajo pasaba por obtener un motor con un alto par de arranque pero con intensidades limitadas, con variaciones de la intensidad en función de la carga prácticamente inapreciables aunque con pérdidas en ...
This Ph.D. thesis illustrates a novel study on the analytical and numerical design optimization of radial-flux permanent magnet synchronous wind generators (PMSGs) for small power generation in an urban area, in which an ...
The present dissertation is focused on the energy optimization of systems which contain multiple energy carriers. The objective of the research is the development of a methodology and the corresponding software tools, which ...
In recent years, there have been considerable efforts in the design and development of technologies and techniques for more efficient harvesting of renewable energy resources to meet the ever increasing electric power ...
Offshore wind is emerging as one of the future energy vectors. Offshore wind power plants locations provide more strong and constant wind speed that allows to extract more power compared to onshore locations. In addition, ...
This thesis aims to investigate an unexpected islanding operation (IO) which has been identified in a real distribution network. The process of recording and processing the data obtained from the field measurements in the ...
A prerequisite for safe and stable operation of an electric power system is the accurate and reliable measurement of the system parameters, in particular, current and voltage. Conventionally, this has been achieved on High ...
La trompa d'aigua o trompa dels Pirineus és el giny hidropneumàtic pel qual s'introduïa aire al forn en el procediment català d'obtenció directa del ferro a partir dels seus minerals, o de la Farga Catalana. En aquest ...
