Abstract

This paper presents an alternative approach to power up unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system using inductive approach. The main issue of utilizing UAV in any application especially in precision agriculture is the lifetime of the battery. This limits the flight time of the UAV which makes the system is unable to be efficiently applied for precision agriculture purpose. Hence, this paper proposes a new approach of powering UAV system by using so called inductive power transfer (IPT) technology. Through this approach, the system can be powered up wirelessly with no physical link in between transmitter and receiver. To be specific, class E inverter circuit has been designed together with impedance matching circuit to ensure higher efficiency is obtained. Finally, a prototype of IPT system for powering up the UAV system was successfully developed, which is able to transmit 23.32 W of power at 1 MHz operating frequency from 12 V input supply. The system achieved up to 95.73% efficiency.

Abstract

Nowadays, the accessories in fish aquarium systems such as water pump, internal filter, and LED light are powered using cables. This will cause to safety issue such as tangled wire, and risk of electric shock. Therefore, this work aims to design a wireless power transfer system to power up the fish aquarium’ accessories wirelessly without require any physical connection between source and loads. To be more specific, inductive power transfer (IPT) is used instead of capacitive power transfer (CPT) due to high efficiency ability owned by IPT. Class-E inverter circuit is proposed in this paper to convert DC to AC at nearly 100% efficiency. The inverter provides a low switching loss which is important as the circuit operates at high frequency, 1 MHz operating frequency. Furthemore, LCCL impedance matching circuit is added into receiver part of the system to enhance the efficiency of overall circuit. The analyses were done based on the distance between the coils and the misalignment of the coils against the output power and efficiency. The developed prototype is supplied by 24 V DC and capable to deliver 5 W power. The overall efficiency of the prototype is 87.81%.

Abstract

An artificial lift is a technique for pumping fluids in the petroleum industry today. Most artificial lift that is used nowadays is an electrical submersible pump (ESP). ESP is very convenient and reliable for lifting production. It applies under offshore and onshore industries, where it has high displacement capacity and flexibility to handle various sizes and flow rates under different well conditions. Due to severe operating conditions, ESP may experience fatigue failure, an undesirable malfunction resulting in a shortened service life. Early failure detection on ESP is imperative to prevent a major failure in the pump and reduce the cost of the damage. This study provides an in-depth examination of condition monitoring and early failure detection, with a focus on mechanical and electrical failures. This paper begins with a description of the ESP working principle followed by an analysis of ESP fault and numerous ESP performance monitoring techniques, including the application of early detection. Finally, the authors summarize ESP’s failures, including detection methods for each failure. Besides, recommendations for future research to increase ESP’s lifetime are also discussed. This review revealed that the lifetime of existing ESP can be extended if extensive monitoring of ESP conditions and advanced fault detection methods are applied.
