Novel Insight into the Output Current Ripple for Multilevel and Multiphase Converter Topologies

Drazen Dujic, Alexandre François Christe

When it comes to the computation / estimation of the switching losses in a multilevel converter, it is crucial to know the instantaneous value of the output current. If the average output current value is used instead, there is a non negligible error when ...

Analysis of future hydropower development and operational scenarios on the zambezi river basin

Anton Schleiss, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos, Théodora Cohen Liechti

The Zambezi River basin is the fourth largest in Africa. Covering an area of about 1 400 000 km2 that is shared among 8 countries, it is the home of over 30 million people. There are ample opportunities for development in the region, including on the hydro ...

Evaluating snow models with varying process representations for hydrological applications

Nander Wever, Tobias Jonas

Much effort has been invested in developing snow models over several decades, resulting in a wide variety of empirical and physically based snow models. For the most part, these models are built on similar principles. The greatest differences are found in ...

Solving Richards Equation for snow improves snowpack meltwater runoff estimations in detailed multi-layer snowpack model

Michael Lehning, Nander Wever, Charles Fierz

The runoff from a snow cover during spring snowmelt or rain-on-snow events is an important factor in the hydrological cycle. In this study, three water balance schemes for the 1 dimensional physically-based snowpack model SNOWPACK are compared to lysimeter ...

Accurate drainage network extraction and monitoring in a high-mountain catchment

Andrea Rinaldo, Marc Parlange, Raphaël Mutzner

We study the accuracy of channel network extraction methods obtained in two subcatchments of an alpine watershed in Switzerland and compare the results to the ones obtained with the real network, carefully monitored with a high precision DGPS during Summer ...

Energy recovery in SUDS towards smart water grids: A case study

Anton Schleiss, Irene Almeida Samora

The development of a methodology for urban flood adaptation and energy recovery solutions is resting on the concept of Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) as a measure to reduce risks of urban flooding while fully utilizing the available resources. F ...

Active flood management in Alpine catchment areas equipped with storage hydropower schemes

Anton Schleiss, Martin Peter Bieri, Frédéric Jordan

The simulation of runoff in Alpine catchment areas is essential for the optimal operation of high-head storage hydropower plants (HPP) under normal flow conditions, but also in case of flood events. A semi-distributed conceptual numerical approach has been ...
