      Several power transformers has, during the last two decades, broken down due to the copper sulphideproblem. Corrosive sulphur reacts with the copper conductor contaminating the surroundinginsulating paper. To this day there ...
    • Splicing and Coil Winding of MgB2 Superconductors 

      Sætre, Frode (Master thesis, 2008)
      Abstract Conventional induction heaters for extrusion purposes have an efficiency of only 55 60 % due to the resistive losses in the copper coils putting up the magnetic field. By using superconductor and DC current these ...
    • Sluttbrukets betydning i energiplanlegging 

      Bjørland, Birger (Master thesis, 2008)
      Sammendrag Energi- og effektknapphet har i stor grad blitt kompensert for ved økt produksjon eller overføringskapasitet, og det har vært lite fokus på sluttbrukets betydning i tradisjonell energiplanlegging. Reduksjonspotensialet ...
    • Optimal forvaltning av reaktiv effekt i regionalnettet i Buskerud

      Arbeidet som presenteres i denne rapporten er utført i samarbeid med Energiselskapet Buskerud (EB). Oppgavens formål har vært å utarbeide en generell metode for å minimere kostnader knyttet til reaktiv effektflyt i ...
    • Implementation of Permanent Magnet Motors in Electric Vehicles 

      Elvestad, Eirik (Master thesis, 2008)
      This thesis has studied permanent magnet motors in electric vehicles (EVs) under the assumption that they are tractable due to a low weight and high compactness. The implementation has been investigated through a case ...
    • Offshore Wind Power in the North Sea: Grid Integration of 1000 MW Offshore Wind Power into the Norwegian Power System 

      Sommerfelt, Knut Magnus (Master thesis, 2008)
      Norway has great potential for offshore wind power, but the depths just outside the coast probably make floating wind turbines necessary. In order to use today s technology for offshore wind turbines with foundations on ...
