Abstract

Dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is a device that can compensate harmonic, voltage sag and voltage swell condition that exists in a three-phase system. Other than that, DVR can also be used to enhance the energy efficiency or energy saving by reducing excessive amount of incoming power via the reduction incoming voltage at allowable limit. The DVR can inject the required voltage in the system so that the interruption of supply voltage can be compensated. The compensation of voltage supply interruption is improved based on the hysteresis voltage output of controller used in the DVR to detect the difference between reference voltage and disrupted voltage. The hysteresis voltage control mainly controlled by relays switching so that the signal can be sent to IGBT switches controller. The hysteresis voltage control and unipolar SPWM is supplied to control the IGBT switches by the DC supply for voltage interruption compensation. The unipolar SPWM technique converts the DC supply voltage into AC supplied voltage, thus making the DVR injection become easier to inject the AC voltage into the system to compensate voltage sag and voltage swell.

Abstract

This paper proposes a method for distributed generation (DG) placement in distribution system for losses minimization and voltage profile improvement. An IEEE 33-bus radial distribution system is used as the test system for the placement of DG. To facilitate the sizing of DG capacity, a meta-heuristic algorithm known as Continuous Domain Ant Colony Optimization (ACOR) is implemented. The ACOR is a modified version of the traditional ACO which was developed specially for solving continuous domain optimization problem like sizing a set of variables. The objective of this paper is to determine the optimal size and location of DG for power loss minimization and voltage profile mitigation. Three case studies were conducted for the purpose of verification. It was observed that the proposed technique is able to give satisfactory results of real power loss and voltage profile at post-optimization condition. Experiment under various loadings of the test system further justifies the objective of the study.

Abstract

This paper presents the application of particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique for solving the dynamic economic dispatch (DED) problem. The DED is one of the main functions in power system planning in order to obtain optimum power system operation and control. It determines the optimal operation of generating units at every predicted load demands over a certain period of time. The optimum operation of generating units is obtained by referring to the minimum total generation cost while the system is operating within its limits. The DED based PSO technique is tested on a 9-bus system containing of three generator bus, six load bus and twelve transmission lines.

Abstract

The Energy and natural resources ministry (KeTSA) of Malaysia has introduced the net energy metering (NEM) 3.0, which provides an opportunity for consumers to install solar photovoltaic (PV) systems to reduce electricity bills. The NEM 3.0 introduces three new initiatives that offer 500 MW quota from 2021 till 2023. NEM has been implemented since 2016, replacing the feed-in tariff (FiT) strategy by promoting the users to utilize the generated energy in the first place before selling any surplus to the utility. As in the FiT strategy, users can only sell the generated energy at a fixed rate without utilizing it. This paper presents the comparative study between NEM and FiT for 496 kWp solar photovoltaic system in UiTM Segamat, Johor in the perspective of economy and energy practice based on the simulation result of MATLAB/Simulink software.

Abstract

This paper proposes an optimization technique for distributed generation (DG) sizing in power system. The DG placement was done through Loss Sensitive (LS) technique to determine the suitable locations. The LS index is calculated such that the change in power losses is divided with generation increment and a rank of buses is obtained to identify the suitable locations for DG placement.  Subsequently, a meta-heuristic algorithm, known as Firefly Algorithm (FA) was run to obtain the optimal size or capacity of the DG. The installation takes into consideration the aspect of voltage stability in terms of total real power losses and voltage profiles to be improved in the distribution system. Based on the experiment, the real power losses and voltage profiles were improved significantly as a result of the DG placement. In addition, the installation could prevent the power system from collapse as the reactive loading was increased to maximum.

Abstract

This paper presents a research on designing a heat engine known as the Stirling engine. The first task is to study on the background of Stirling engine including its robustness, advantages and disadvantages, history and its ability to produce useful energy. Gamma type Stirling engine will be the main focus for this paper. Thus, an effort has been made in determining a suitable formulation that will be used to design a functioning Gamma Stirling engine. This formulation can be divided into several criteria, the Stirling cycle method used to find the p-V diagram of Stirling engine, the 0th order calculation method used as a preliminary system analysis on the efficiency and performance of the engine and lastly, the Schmidt Analysis whereby used in dealing with the design and development of the engine. This formulation is then arranged accordingly into Excel programming software. As for the hardware analysis, it will be on the performance of the Stirling engine model in term of its electrical power production based on different heat source. At the end of this project, it shows that the obtained formulations can be used in designing the Gamma Stirling engine and are capable to produce an output power from the Stirling engine.
