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 ...
Ens proposem fer girar tubs de material conductor (coure o alumini) de diferents llargades i diàmetres. Aquest tub que hom vol fer girar és el secundari d'una màquina elèctrica d'inducció, i actua de rotor o part ...
En la tesis, se estudian máquinas eléctricas de flujo axial con rotor conductor sin elementos ferromagnéticos. Se pretende construir un motor de flujo axial, que se alimente con densidades de corriente elevadas para arrastrar ...
The offshore grid in North and Baltic Sea can help Europe to achieve 2020 and 2030 renewable energy target to counter climate changes . The formation of offshore grid requires the interconnection between several offshore ...
This thesis deals with grid integration of oshore wind power plants through HVDC (High Voltage Direct Current) or HVAC (High Voltage Alternating Current) transmission . The behaviour of wind farms and their transmission ...
The present PhD thesis deals with transformer inrush current in offshore grids including offshore wind farms and High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission systems. The inrush phenomenon during transformers energization ...
Modular Multilevel Converters (MMCs) are a type of Voltage Source Converter (VSC) which have become the preferred topology choice for High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) applications. Compare to its HVDC converter predecessors, ...
Most of large scale photovoltaic systems are based on centralized configurations with voltage source converters of two or three output voltage levels connected to photovoltaic panels. With the development of multilevel ...
The electric generation systems on islands are based generally on fossil fuel. This fact and its supply make the electricity cost higher than in systems used in the continent. In this thesis, as a first part, a review of ...
(English) Lithium-Ion Batteries (LIBs) are being used in more and more areas of application. At the same time, their chemical composition and their designs are constantly evolving. Major developments are also taking place ...
(English) In the grid-forming control of microgrids, the droop control is a widely used for the parallel operation of power inverters, but has some peculiarities as slow dynamic and inaccuracy in the power sharing. In the ...
PEMFCs are the most popular type of Fuel Cells (FCs) and traditionally use hydrogen as the fuel. One FC problem is its relative slow dynamics caused by the time constant of the hydrogen and oxygen supply systems that can ...
