Abstract

A detailed analysis has been conducted on two motor control algorithms: direct torque control (DTC) and field-oriented control (FOC). There are two ways that a voltage source inverter (VSI) can regulate a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). When using the PMSM and voltage source inverter (VSI), dead time is employed to turn off both the upper and lower switches to prevent short circuits. However, by supplying the PMSM with unexpected polarity voltages at the VSI output voltage, this switching technique reduces distortion. It is challenging to utilize the sensor to directly detect the fault voltage that results in an open circuit. This work examines the nonlinearity of the electric power controller during dead time during PMSM operation using the DTC algorithm to increase control stability. The stress distribution is estimated using an extended Kalman filter (EKF). Ultimately, the model presented in this study verified the increase in stator current and torque output through simulations and testing.

Abstract

Accessing the unelectrified rural population is currently not possible through grid expansion, as connectivity is neither economically viable nor encouraged by large companies. Additionally, conventional energy options, such as broom-based systems, are being gradually phased out of rural development programs because to growing oil prices and the unbearable effects of this energy source on consumers and the environment. A hybrid generator using solar and wind can solve this issue. Proven hybrid systems are the best choice for delivering high-quality power. Nowadays, hybrid renewable energy systems are becoming popular. The power system provides electricity to remote and isolated areas. Villages and residents in the forest area had their electricity cut off due to the forest environment. While creating a renewable energy source near the load. Solar power and wind power are renewable sources, solar power works in the morning and wind can make morning and night time to synchronize both output voltage and frequency to provide provides the ability to charge continuously, without interruption. The main objective of the project is to provide mixed renewable energy without interruption.

Abstract

Systems power factor provides information on how effectively it uses the electrical power being provided to hold out real work. Losses rise as a results of poor power factor, and therefore the utility is penalized. In general, inductive loads, which are reactive in nature, make up AC loads. As a result, loads require and consume reactive power from the supply source which leads to excessive voltage drop in the line if they draw a lot of lagging current from the source, which could potentially result in the line's voltage collapsing if the drop is too high. When inductors cause a phase difference between voltage and current, the information is sent to the micro-controller, where the program takes control and activates the right number of opto-isolators interfaced to the triac silicon-based semiconductor device at its output to bring shunt capacitors into the load circuit to improve power factor to the desired range Semiconductors such as silicon or germanium are generally used for making triac. The most commonly used is silicon, due to its high abundance and the fact that it can operate at a higher temperature than germanium.

Abstract

The brushless DC (BLDC) motor requires to be controlled at the preferred speed in order to operate. A brushless DC motor's speed can be adjusted by adjusting the input voltage. In general, speed increases with voltage. The application of a Luo converter is made to satisfy the load demand, get rid of output voltage ripples, and reduce parasitic effects. The magnitude of stator input voltage to BLDC motor is controlled through the pulses applied by ATMEGA 328P micro controller to voltage source Inverter which in turn controls the magnitude of speed of BLDC motor. The position of the brushless DC (BLDC) motor is continually monitored by infrared sensors, which are then processed by a PIC16F872 microcontroller to produce the necessary pulses for BLDC motor speed regulation. The BLDC motor speed can be regulated by the pulses applied to voltage source inverter through the IR sensors placed at the motor. The outcomes of controlling the speed of a BLDC motor using voltage variation values have been shown.

Abstract

A grid-connected solar water pumping system (SWPS) uses solar power to pump water while simultaneously drawing power from the grid when necessary. These systems can benefit farmers in a variety of ways, including reliable power, lower electric bills, increased income, and improved economic viability. This study explores a solar photovoltaic (SPV) water pumping system designed to function with a single-phase distribution network. It utilizes an induction motor drive (IMD) and incorporates an advanced power-sharing technique for optimal performance. In addition to transferring power from SPV to IMD, a DC-DC boost converter functions as a grid interface and power factor adjustment device. Maximizing the power extracted from the SPV array is critical for optimizing its utilization. To do this, a control mechanism based on incremental conductance is implemented to track maximum power points. Simultaneously, the IMD connected to the power source inverter is regulated using a simple volt/frequency approach. The suggested system, which includes standalone, grid-interfaced, and mixed-mode situations, is developed and validated in a lab.

Abstract

Solar-powered bidirectional charging of an electric vehicle has three different modes of operation. The first mode of operation is “solar-powered electric vehicle charging” in which the vehicle is charged with solar energy. The second mode of operation is “grid-powered electric vehicle charging” which charges the vehicle in the absence of solar energy. The third mode of operation is “vehicle supplying to the grid” and in this mode, the vehicle energy is transferred back to the grid when there is demand to charge the other electric vehicles connected to the same grid. The system uses maximum power point tracking (MPPT) to improve power extraction from solar panels under standard test cell conditions, allowing for effective charging of electric cars. It also uses a proportional-integral (PI) controller to continually monitor the battery's state of charge (SOC). This controller modulates the duty cycle of pulse width modulation (PWM), which regulates the charging current. The charging system includes a buck-boost converter, which functions as a buck converter while supplying grid voltage to the vehicle, and a boost converter in supplying excess voltage of the vehicle to the grid. For three different modes of operation, the battery parameters such as voltage, current, and charging state are presented. The grid voltage and current are observed for the last two modes of operation.

Abstract

The electric vehicle (EV) is increasingly emerging as an attractive solution to reduce reliance on fossil fuels in India. In commercial EVs, solar photovoltaic (PV) technology is employed both to charge the battery and power the vehicle. However, the conventional bidirectional DC-DC converter layout results in underutilization of solar PV power when the battery's state of charge (SOC) reaches maximum capacity. This work offers a unique dual input super boost (DISB) DC-DC converter designed specifically for solar-powered electric vehicles (EVs) to address the aforementioned challenge. The recently suggested converter operates in six different modes to effectively capture solar photovoltaic (PV) power. Notable benefits of this design include a wide range of speed control and fewer conduction devices in each mode, which eventually result in increased overall efficiency. An extensive analysis of the suggested DISB DC-DC converter is carried out by the study, encompassing detailed examination of operating waveforms and dynamic evaluations. Furthermore, the converter's performance and operation under the six different modes are verified through simulation.
