Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the optimal scheduling of hydro-thermal power generation systems. This problem, usually referred to as the unit commitment and economic dispatch problem, manifests itself as a large scale mixed integer programming problem. In the first instance a linear model is built and solved using branch-and-bound. This approach is, however, very expensive in terms of computational time. Using Lagrangian relaxation the original primal problem may be written in a dual formulation: the problem then admits decomposition into more tractable subproblems. Furthermore, the primal sol

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the application of large scale concentrated solar (CSP) and photovoltaic power plants in Libya. Direct Steam Generation (DSG) offers a cheaper and less risky method of generating electricity using concentrated solar energy than Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) plant. However, it is argued that the location of a DSG plant can be critical in realising these benefits, and that the South-East part of Libya is ideal in this respect. The models and calculations presented here are the result of an implementation of the 2007 revision of the IAPWS equations in a general application ba

One of the most significant developments in photocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (PC-HER) is the application of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4). In this PhD thesis, the influences of solar-heat on PC-HER were investigated with different nanomaterials as photocatalysts. Meanwhile, novel g-C3N4 based nanostructures, including NiO quantum dots decorated g-C3N4, single-atom Ag modified g-C3N4, and K doped g-C3N4/g-C3N4 van der Waals type II junctions, were developed, applied, and carefully studied in PC-HER processes.

Abstract:
Power flows within distribution networks are expected to become increasingly congested with the proliferation of distributed generation (DG) from renewable energy resources. Consequently, the size, energy penetration and ultimately the revenue stream of DG schemes may be limited in the future. This research seeks to facilitate increased renewable energy penetrations by utilising power system component thermal properties together with DG power output control techniques. The real-time thermal rating of existing power system components has the potential to unlock latent power transfer capacities.

The annual gain of stationary solar thermal collectors can be increased by non-focusing reflectors. Such concentrators make use of diffuse irradiance. A collector’s incidence angle modifier for diffuse (diffuse-IAM) accounts for this utilization. The diffuse irra-diance varies over the collector hemisphere, which dynamically influences the diffuse-IAM. This is not considered by state-of-the-art collector models. They simply calculate with one constant IAM value for isotropic diffuse irradiance from sky and ground. This work is based on the development of a stationary, double-covered process he

Abstract:
This thesis sets out a series of new techniques to improve the thermal management of power electronics. The work is motivated by the increasing impetus to design smaller, more energy efficient electronic power systems for a range of applications, notably electric vehicles. Thermal management is an increasingly important tool which can facilitate improvements in power density through better monitoring and control of system temperatures. This thesis seeks to deliver improvements in implementing this strategy. A review of the state of the art in thermal management is reported, focussing on temper

Abstract:
The system code TRACE is the latest development of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (US NRC). TRACE, developed for the analysis of operational conditions, transients and accidents of light water reactors (LWR), is a best-estimate code with two fluid, six equation models for mass, energy, and momentum conservation, and related closure models. Since TRACE is mainly applied to LWR specific issues, the validation process related to innovative nuclear systems (liquid metal cooled systems, systems operated with supercritical water, etc.) is very limited, almost not existing. In this work, esse
