Abstract

This paper presents a comparative study of different energy management strategies and technologies of fuel-cell hybrid electric vehicles integrating a proton exchange membrane fuel cell device in addition to a lithium-ion battery as a secondary energy source. Therefore, an experimental analysis is carried out to seek the successful hybrid powertrains considering the hydrogen utilization in fuel cells and state-of-charge regulation in Li-ion batteries. Different approaches were simulated using a developed vehicle simulator in MATLAB/Simulink. The simulations were performed using three standard driving cycles in which a second study based on energy management strategies tested was presented and analyzed. Simulation’s results show the superiority and economic success of the proposed technology and method, especially the FSBS and MEPT management strategies due to the successful use of the sources and the significant optimization in terms of hydrogen consumption while maintaining optimal Li-ion battery usage.

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis and explores the potential an infinite generation system to accommodate the domestic load growth of the 33 KV loop network from 2025 to 2040. The study involves assessing the current state of the network, focusing on voltage levels, loading lines, and transformers, to ensure they operate within the permissible loading limits of the system. It is assumed that the loop is supplied by an infinite source. A numerical model using the Gauss-Seidel method is implemented and executed on the PSS/E simulator. We will simulate the current network state and analyze the voltage profile, which should range between 0.95 and 1.05 pu. Next, we forecast the demand based on the industrial growth of the cities interconnected to this 33 kV loop. Analysis the simulation results will demonstrate the possibility of increasing the transit active power and controlling the reactive power in the system at 2040 year. Indeed, we propose solutions to address the identified critical issues to meet the projected demand. These solutions involve doubling the power capacity of the existing transformers. The proposed system will provide industrial consumers with reduced load imbalances and better control over voltage fluctuations caused by rapid variations in reactive power demand.

Abstract

This research investigates the viability of a perpetually scalable generation system to accommodate the anticipated growth in domestic load demands on the 33 kV loop network over the period from 2025 to 2040. This is achieved by analysis current situation of network through the voltages, loading lines, and transformers, within the permissible loading limits of the system. In this context, it is assumed that the loop is supplied by an ideal infinite power source. A numerical model utilizing the Gauss-Seidel (GS) method is developed and executed within the PSS/E simulator. The current operational state of the network will be simulated, with a focus on analyzing the voltage profile, which is expected to remain within the range of 0.095 to 1.05 per unit (p.u.). Demand forecasts are based on industrial growth projections for the cities interconnected with the 33 kV loop. The simulation results will demonstrate the feasibility of increasing active power transmission while maintaining effective control over reactive power by the year 2040. Furthermore, solutions will be proposed to address the identified critical path issues. To meet the projected demand, these solutions will involve doubling the capacity of the existing transformers. The proposed system will mitigate load imbalances and stabilize voltage fluctuations by effectively managing rapid variations in reactive power demand. As a result, it improves power quality for industrial consumers.
