Abstract

This paper discussed the influence of tightness or contacts pressure on copper busbar joints to determine changes in the value of the initial contact resistance and the maximum temperature at the joint due to high current load. The test sample was copper busbar 3 x 30 mm with configuration of bolted overlapping joint. Increasing contact pressure at the joint was measured to find out its effect on the value of contact resistance. The applied pressure was 6 to 36 MPa. Procedure of contact resistance measurement refer to the ASTM B539 standard using four-wire method. The sample subsequently loaded with the current of 350 A for 60 minutes and the maximum temperature at the joint was measured. The result showed that increasing contact pressure at the busbar joint will reduce the contact resistance and maximum temperature. The increase of contact pressure from 6 to 30 MPa causes decreasing contact resistance from 16 μΩ to 11 μΩ. Further increasing of contact pressure more than 30 MPa did not affect the contact resistance significantly. The lowest temperatur of busbar joint of 54°C was reached at a contact pressure of 36 Mpa.

Abstract

Charge Simulation Method is one of the field theory that can be used as an approach to calculate the electromagnetic distribution on the electrical conductor. This paper discussed electric field modeling around power transformator by using Matlab to find the safety distance. The safe distance threshold of the electric field to human health refers to WHO and SNI was 5 kV/m. The specification of the power transformator was three phases, 150/20 kV, and 100 MVA. The basic concept is to change the distribution charge on the conductor or dielectric polarization charge with a set of discrete fictitious charge. The value of discrete fictitious charge was equivalent to the potential value of the conductor, and became a reference to calculate the electric field around the surface contour of the selected power transformator. The measurement distance was 5 meter on each side of the transformator surface. The results showed that the magnitude of the electric field at the front side was 5541 V/m, exceeding the safety limits.

Abstract

Abstract – Solar radiation and temperature in photovoltaic (PV) can affect the output voltage and current of PV so that it also relates to the performance of the Grid Tied Inverter (GTI) on the on-grid PV system. This paper discusses the performance of the GTI based on output power on solar radiation and PV temperature. The method used in this testing was measuring simultaneously against the current and voltage parameters on PV, the current and voltage of the GTI, and the radiation and temperature of PV. Measurement with a data logger was also carried out on the above parameters in the morning and evening to find out at least the PV output voltage and current when the GTI starts or stops sending the power. The measurement results obtained that the GTI output power is affected by solar radiation and PV temperature. On the same radiation when the PV temperature gets higher, the PV voltage will drop, but the PV current and GTI current will increase. In addition, if with the same radiation and temperature but the AC source voltage was greater, the output power of GTI would also increase. The power produced by the GTI was lower than PV power due to GTI losses. The efficiency of the GTI decreases not only because of the increase in temperature above 35 oC but also due to the decreasing grid voltage. GTI starts sending power when the PV current was more than 2 A at 06.23 AM. GTI stops operating when the PV current was less than 1.74 A at 05.53 PM.

Abstract

An active water-cooling system is one of several technologies that has been proven to be able to reduce heat losses and increase electrical energy in photovoltaic (PV) module. This research discusses a comparative experimental study of three pump activation controls in cooling of PV module with the aim of evaluating specifically the PV output power, net energy gain, water flow rate, and module temperature reduction. The three pump activation controls being compared are continuously active during the test, active based on setpoint temperature, and active by controlling the pump voltage using pulse width modulation (PWM) control in adjusting water flow rate smoothly. The results show that controlling the pump voltage using PWM in the PV cooling process produces energy of 437.95 Wh, slightly lower than the others and the average module cooling temperature is 35.24 °C, higher of 1-3 °C than the others. Nevertheless, PWM control of cooling pump has resulted the percentage of net energy gain of 9.94%, greater than other controls, and with an average flow rate of 2.17 L/min, more efficient than the others. Thus, this control is quite effective as it can produce higher net PV energy yield and lower water consumption.
