The aim of the diploma thesis was to design active loudspeakers. The project contains the final solution of the designed loudspeakers that have a digital input of the multichannel audio signal with both sided data communication. In the work, there are also created circuits for processing an audio signal with a following amplification for the loudspeakers. Added functions are an infra acceptor for a remote control and binary outputs for assistant functions - a control of the motor and an indication via LED diodes.

Laboratory push – pull switching power supply with symetrical output 2x0-30 V/5 A, primarily through adjustable controls (buttons, rotary encoder position) and then displayed on the alphanumeric LCD display. Management and communication device between the user and the power supply of the microcontroller ATmega32 - 16PU.

The thesis is focused on design the switching power supply according to Push-pull topology rules. The work describes basic theoretic principles of Push-pull topology with design of circuit and circuit elements.

Master’s thesis is focused on design of digitally controllable power-supply for generating current pulses with nominal level (few amperes), adjustable rising slope and time of duration. Device uses voltage controlled current source. Control voltage is generated by digital to analog converter. Computer simulations are accomplished for designed electronic circuit and measurement of prototype is done as well.

This Master’s thesis is focused on design of voltage converter’s system operating with supply voltage of batteries. There are selected appropriate types of batteries, converter topologies and modes of their control. The specified output branches are systematically divided into three separate modules. Each module is designed in detail with focus on high efficiency. The modules are implemented and optimized. Parameter of final modules were measured and compared with correctness of design and theoretical assumptions.

The aim of this thesis is a description of a proposal to ensure safety of DC in power infrastructure and its impact on economics of an enterprise. The first part is focused on the analysis of the whole situation. The work also contains other possibilities of solution with respect to theoretical resources. The attention is also drawn to a particular procedure to minimize the financial loss of the company caused by a power failure and to a plan for providing maximum protection against this power failure.

Aus der Einleitung: "Der Anteil erneuerbaren Energien in der Energieversorgung soll auch in den kommenden Jahren weiter ausgebaut werden. Dadurch steigt der Bedarf an großen und effizienten Windkraftanlagen (WKA) mit immer höheren Anforderungen an Materialien und Strukturen. Die hohen Belastungen und limitierenden Faktoren in Bezug auf die Lebensdauer solcher Anlagen sind meist dynamisch und abhängig von Strukturschwingungen und Belastungsanregung. Hierzu werden vermehrt Simulationstechniken eingesetzt, die in der Praxis durch den Mangel an genauen Randbedingungen unpräzise sind bzw. als Modell durch Messungen validiert werden müssen. Während typischerweise zur Erfassung von Schwingwegen Beschleunigungsaufnehmer eingesetzt werden, gestaltet sich die Implementierung solcher Messtechnik in drehenden Strukturen meist komplex und aufwändig (Ozbek et al. 2010). Der Einsatz optischer Messtechnik ist im Vergleich einfacher und kann potentiell die Optimierung von Simulationsmodellen unterstützen (Ozbek et al. 2010, Schmidt-Paulsen et al. 2009, 2011)."

The 1-wire bus is a communication bus system which is designed to provide data, signals and power over a single signal with low data rates, a high resolution and a long range. It is typically used to communicate with small inexpensive devices, as temperature sensors, which is worked as a slave with the master computer (PC). The 1-wire bus system provides the sufficient control and operation signal, a unique ID serial number of each sensor and it supports multiple temperature sensors by a driving power (Parasite Power) on single line. On the 1-Wire bus system, temperature sensors are supplied by two types of power supplies, external Power supply and Parasitic Power. The aim of this project is to program the microprocessor (Arduino) by using Arduino programming language to work as a temperature sensor type DS18B20 and also as a slave on the 1-Wire bus system. This report explains the 1-Wire bus system techniques and how the communication is achieved between the master and the slave (sensors) to measure the temperature values. The measured temperature values are collected from the output of each active sensor on the 1-Wire bus. These data are displayed by the personal computer (PC) which is worked as a master on the 1-Wire bus, and the data are represent the measured temperature values from twelve active sensors on the bus system. In this thesis, the temperature values from the 12 active sensors can be read and displayed on the master (PC) by using the following programs: Open Logger One Wire (OLOW) program, One Wire Viewer, DigiTemp and OWFS and I validated all the temperature values from these active sensors which are read and monitored by the drive bus programs. The comparison is done among the measured temperature values to see if the active sensors are given accurate temperature values with different drive bus programs. The project shows that the sensors can be connected in a network with the master, by using 1-Wire bus techniques. This thesis will be used by Karolinska University Hospital, and it can also be developed for different requirements in the future.

The most important requirement for running a nuclear power plant safely is having a reliable safety system, especially during the emergency shutdown condition. For performing a scrutiny load flow and voltage drop study a detailed and comprehensive electrical model for the emergency electrical distribution system of the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant has been developed. This model includes the representation of the transformers, circuit breakers, motors, cables and load data from 4160 volts level down to the individual 480 volts loads.
