1. 1. Improving Concentrating Solar Power Plant Performance through Steam Turbine Flexibility

   Författare :Monika Topel; Björn Laumert; Markus Jöcker; Magnus Genrup; Tony Arts; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Concentrating Solar Power; Steam Turbines; Transients; Start-up; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The amount of incoming solar energy to earth is greater than any other source. Among existing technologies to harness solar energy there is concentrating solar power (CSP). One advantage of CSP is that is dispatchable, meaning that it can provide power even when the sun is not shining. LÄS MER

3. 2. Steam Turbine Thermal Modeling for Improved Transient Operation

   Författare :Monika Topel; Björn Laumert; Konstantinos Kyprianidis; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; steam turbines; transients; start-up; finite element model; heat transfer; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : The growing shares of renewable energy sources in the market and solar thermal power applications have set higher requirements on steam turbine operation.These requirements are related to flexibility during transients. A key aspect sought of such flexibility is the capability for fast starts. LÄS MER

4. 3. A co-simulation based framework for the analysis of integrated urban energy systems : Lessons from a Swedish case study

   Författare :Monica Arnaudo; Björn Laumert; Monika Topel; Louise Ödlund; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : As major responsible for CO2 emissions, the energy sector is urgently called to take action against climatechange. The integration of renewable energy resources is a solution that, however, comes with a challenge.In fact, renewables are often variable, unpredictable and distributed. LÄS MER
