Wind Turbines for the Power Supply for Offshore Fish Farms : A Case Study for the Norwegian West Coast
(Master thesis, 2017)In this thesis the power consumption of a fish farm is set in relation to the expected power production from a wind turbine in order to assess the feasibility of this combination. The fish farm, called Rataren, is located ... -
Design of an Alkaline Electrolysis Stack
(Master thesis, 2017)Renewable energy promises a green energy future for the world. Hence, the electrol- ysis process has been identi ed as the most important method to produce hydrogen using renewable energy source. Moreover, during the ... -
PEM Fuel Cell System : A practical approach for building, testing and controlling a self designed PEMFC stack
(Master thesis, 2017)Fuel cells are an effcient way to produce electricity, especially if it is combined with heat pro- duction. If designed to consume hydrogen, like PEMCF, the only byproduct is water in its purest form H2O. This would have ... -

(Master thesis, 2017) -
Comparison of ideal solar cell concepts using infield data
(Master thesis, 2018)The work done in this thesis has been focused on the comparison of the power production in the ideal single junction cell, intermediate band solar cell, the unconstrained tandem cell, and the area de-coupled 2-terminal ... -
Intelligent estimation of the wake losses in wind farms : Artificial neural network estimation of the power of a wind farm considering the effect of wake losses
(Master thesis, 2018)The transition from non-renewable to renewable energy production requires a detailed optimization and quantification of the generated power. The loss of power due to wake effect is a common problem for wind farms. ... -
PSIM-Based Hardware and Software Design of an Inverter-Fed Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor
(Master thesis, 2018)The purpose of this research is to design a PSIM based controller for an inverter-fed Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM). The dimensioning and assembly of the controller are presented. The control algorithm used ... -
Experimental investigation of the temperature coefficients of Vmpp and Impp in a silicon solar cell
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis is meant to provide an experimental investigation of the temperature coefficient(b)of Vmpp compared to Voc in amulticrystallinesilicon solar cell.With the main question being: to what degree is the temperature ... -
Planning of Residential Microgrid Community with Technical and Economic Analysis
(Master thesis, 2018)Establishment of microgrid communities in Norway can contribute to solve many upgrading challenges of the existing grid. Today's grid are in many areas not suited to handle both bidirec- tional power ow and the increasing ... -
Modelling and simulation of BIPV installations in Norway
(Master thesis, 2018)In this thesis, three BIPV-installations has been simulated, the simulated results of each system have been compared to actual production for the real system. The parameters which are assessed in this thesis are production, ... -
Biochar-pellets as substitute for fossil coal in metallurgical processes
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis serves as a base for later research on substituting fossil coal and coke with biochar in the Norwegian metallurgical industry. Because Norwegian electricity production is almost entirely based on carbon dioxide ... -
Energy analysis of cooling tower and metal holding tanks at Chassix
(Master thesis, 2018)In this thesis, two different methods were used attempting to estimate heat loss from metal holding tanks and chutes at Chassix Norway. The first method uses thermal resistance to calculate the total heat loss without any ... -
Waste heat utilization for central heating and ventilation systems at Chassix Norway
(Master thesis, 2018)Chassix from south of Norway attempt to reduce their energy demand by sending waste heat to a Central Heating System, (CHS), named Case 1. The CHS heat the ventilation systems, space heat and water heating. The waste ... -
Performance Degradation and Failure Analysis of 7 Years (of) Field Exposed Photovoltaic System in Southern Norway
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis covers an analysis of performance degradation and failure detection of thin-film (Sharp) and m-Si (REC and Suntech) PV modules located at Kjøita in the south of Norway. The analysis consists of performance ... -
Demand side management of electric water heater with a photovoltaic system
(Master thesis, 2018)This thesis presents the development of a load controller, which can be used to store self- produced electricity as hot water in a regular electrical water tank. The electricity market today facing challenges towards ... -
Photovoltaic facade systems in Norway: An assessment of energy performance, building integration, and costs
(Master thesis, 2018)In this master thesis, different PV facade systems located in Norway have been evaluated and analyzed. It will thus contribute to the ongoing development of a national database of BIPV. Also, technical and economic aspects ... -
