Thermoelectric generators and their use with renewable energy sources
Bajgl, Tomáš ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Baxant, Petr (advisor)
This work revolves around the principle of thermoenergy transforming into electrical energy by using a thermoelectrical generator. It is divided into these sections – theoretical, practical and experimental measurement. In the theoretical section, each thermoelectrical phenomenon is described, the properties of various materials used for production are listed, including their electrical properties and constructions. Then the attention switches to the currently available systems. The practical section includes a design for a device, which purpose is to recharge a mobile phone by using thermoelectric generators, and that section is followed by the elaboration of the measured values.

Support of the energy sources construction for households
Stručovský, Aleš ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Bartošík, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with the comparison of energy sources used for residential construction. It focuses on photovoltaic power plants, wind power plants, hydropower plants and cogeneration units. Budget cost of energy source is limited to the amount of 550 000 CZK. Every source of energy is defined by its feature, operating principle, advantages and disadvantages. Options of selling the produced energy and its price are specified. Furthermore, the particular building licence applications (construction administration approval, generation of power questionnaire, application for connection to the distribution network, application for the contract of energy production support) including all the necessary enclosures have been analysed. Essential aspect for buying the energy source is its power and it is chosen according to the type of source. Energy source of hydropower systems is flow and gradient, in wind power systems it is wind speed, in photovoltaic power systems it is sufficient intensity of sunshine and in cogeneration units its dependance on annual heat consumption. Specific energy source available on our market is chosen for every group and the calculations of annual electricity production, period of repayment and profitability in 20-year running period are performed.

Pilot project on flexibility management at LV level
Sýkora, Jan ; Pilař, Martin (referee) ; Radil, Lukáš (advisor)
The thesis deals with the topic of flexibility, especially on the demand side. It includes the definition of terms related to the issue, the basic principles of operation and possibilities of use. The main researched branch of the study is the usage of the flexibility potential of heat pumps. The work is based on real data from a pilot project executed in the winter of 2021/22, which examines the portfolio of households with a heat pump and observes the possibilities of using flexibility, its management and especially the impact on load change depending on the estabilished baseline.

Alternative use of biomass
Hornoch, Radek ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Bartošík, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis describes the options of the processing biomass on the nobler fuels and their using. In the first part are described the sources of biomass so the option targeted grow crops or use different convenient wastes. The second part contains a description of the technology, how to revise the biomass to synthesis gas, methanol, ethanol, biodiesel and biogas. They are given yields on already mentioned high-grade fuels from individual crops and technologies. The third part deals with device where it is maybe to use nobler forms of fuels. It is going about traditional heating plant with back pressure or condensing extraction turbine, steam heating plant, a cogeneration unit with micro turbine, a cogeneration unit with combustion engine and a cogeneration unit with fuel cells. At the end of the chapter is a comparison of the different devices when using different fuels.

Simulation of steady-state and dynamic behavior of low-temperature fuel cell
Smugala, Ondrej ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Ptáček, Michal (advisor)
This bachelor´s thesis is concerned with mathematic modelling of low temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). First part of the thesis is focused on explaining the principle of production of electricity by this type of source. The main advantages and disadvantages of this technology are presented there. A division of fuel cells according to the stack temperature and the kind of used electrolyte is also made in this part. Typical technical information is mentioned for every type of fuel cell. The rest of thesis is concerned with the PEMFC. Firstly there is a description of construction of fuel cell and a presentation of applications in the industry. The second part of work includes a mathematical description of steady and dynamic behavior of fuel cell which is based on relations among fundamental parameters and quantities. The other part contains all results of simulation which was made on a model created in Matlab Simulink. Comparison of the results of real measurement with the results of simulation which was performed on a modified model is provided in the last part of thesis.

The development of the model of PV system for electric water heating
Sochor, Tomáš ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Ptáček, Michal (advisor)
This thesis deals with designing of a model of a photovoltaic system for domestic water heating in program PSCAD. In theoretical part, an analysis of photovoltaic systems regarding their connection to electrical grid is made. Then a description of chosen concepts of photovoltaic systems for domestic water heating is made. Furthemore, a photovoltaic cell is described with regard to its mathematical description and influence of different parameters on its volt-ampere characteristics. Also, a common topologies of DC-DC converters are described. Control is also related to these converters, that is why a fundamental MPPT algorithms are described. Practical part deals with designing of chosen concepts of photovoltaic systems for domestic water heating in program PSCAD. A basic simulations with regard to behavior of these systems are performed, especially a relationship with respect to irradiance and temperature. Simulations are then discussed in the conclusion.

Analysis of the legitimacy of use of solar trackers for photovoltaic systems in a given area
Hořava, Pavel ; Radil, Lukáš (referee) ; Ptáček, Michal (advisor)
This bachelor’s thesis deals with the Analysis of justifiability of use of solar trackers for photovoltaic systems in given locality. The principle of the photovoltaic transformation, kinds of photovoltaic panels, legislation and a suitability of the Czech republic for photovoltaic systems are roughly characterized in the first part. The second part is about the systems of tracking the photovoltaic panel to the sun and the stationary placement photovoltaic panel. The possibilities of increasing of power of photovoltaic panel and the factors, which influent the power of photovoltaic panel, are detailly described in the third part. The photovoltaic system in given lokality is designed in the fourth part. The experiments are designed, realised and evaluated in the next parts. The experiments are focused on practical verification of the power of stationary placed panel during the day and the year. The last part of this bachelor’s thesis deals with the evaluation of justifiability of use of solar trackers for photovoltaic systems in given locality from many points of view.

Mathematical modeling of a wind turbine
Osička, Aleš ; Mastný, Petr (referee) ; Radil, Lukáš (advisor)
The aim of this paper is to acquaint the readers with basic classification of wind turbine configuration by used electric generator, with speed and power control used in power plants and with mathematical model of wind and parts of power plant. Procedure of making model in applications Mathematica and MathModelica is described in the other part of this paper. There were made models of power plants with squirrel cage asynchronous generator, one with pitch control, the other with stall control. In the last part of the thesis comparison of model behavior of both models with the same input conditions was made.
