Abstract

This article discusses a design of a photovoltaic (PV) system that allow charging a battery under variable climatic circumstances. The system under study is composed of two DC-DC converters a boost and Buck converter. The first one is used to extract the maximum power from the PV array through a novel variable step size P&O based MPPT offering a high tracking accuracy compared to classical approaches such PO and INC. The second converters aim at regulating the output voltage and current that feeds the battery using a robust optimal PI (O-PI) which has a faster time response and high accuracy compared to classical PI and PID controllers. The overall system and thecontrol strategies are tested and validated in MATLAB/Simulink environment. The simulations results show the effectiveness and the robustness of the system.

Abstract

One of the most common causes of blackouts is unexpected failures at power system transformer levels. The purpose of this project is to create a low-cost Internet of things (IoT)-based monitoring system for power grid transformers in order to investigate their working status in real-time. Our monitoring system’s key functions are the gathering and display of many metrics measured at the transformer level (temperature, humidity, oil level, voltage, vibration, and pressure). The data will be collected using various sensors connected to a microcontroller with an embedded Wi-Fi module (DOIT Esp32 DevKit v1), and then supplied to a cloud environment interface with a full display of all the ongoing changes. This technology will provide the power grid maintenance center with a clear image of the transformers’ health, allowing them to intervene at the right time to prevent system breakdown. The method described above would considerably improve the efficiency of a power transformer in a smart grid system by detecting abnormalities before they become critical.

Abstract

This paper proposes a fault diagnosis scheme applied to a wind turbine system. The technique used is based on a modified sliding mode observer (SMO), which permits the reconstruction of actuator and sensor faults. A wind turbine benchmark with a real sequence of wind speed is exploited to validate the proposed fault detection and diagnosis scheme. Rotor speed, generator speed, blade pitch angle, and generator torque have different orders of magnitude. As a result, the dedicated sensors are susceptible to faults of quite varying magnitudes, and estimating simultaneous sensor faults with accuracy using a classical SMO is difficult. To address this issue, some modifications are made to the classic SMO. In order to test the efficiency of the modified SMO, several sensor fault scenarios have been simulated, first in the case of separate faults and then in the case of simultaneous faults. The simulation results show that the sensor faults are isolated, detected, and reconstructed accurately in the case of separate faults. In the case of simultaneous faults, with the proposed modification of SMO, the faults are precisely isolated, detected, and reconstructed, even though they have quite different amplitudes; thus, the relative gap does not exceed 0.08% for the generator speed sensor fault.

Abstract

This paper presents a developed design of a 3×4 circular polarization microstrip antenna patch array whose its resonance frequency is 2.45 GHz in the ISM band. This array is printed on a FR4 substrate of 1.58 mm thickness with a dielectric permittivity of 4.4. The basic antenna patch is a square shape inserted by a rectangular slot inclined positioned diagonally at the center to achieve circular polarization. In addition, a triangular-shaped slit is added at each of the four corners of the patch. The antenna array performance is tested numerically using two different software packages, CST MWS and HFSS. The antenna’s array size is compacted to a 22.7 cm×13.5 cm. The simulated results give good performance results in terms of return loss and gain; directivity is found to be 9.66 dBi at 2.45 GHz; the axial ratio value is 1.69 dB; and total efficiency is about 95.55% at 2.45 GHz. Then, the simulated results obtained by these two programs are in good agreement, which makes this proposed array design very suitable for radio frequency energy harvesting and its various applications to power supply different devices in a clean way for our environment.

Abstract

This paper provides a new conception for a microstrip patch antenna array that operates in a circularly polarized manner for wireless power transmission (WPT) at 2.45 GHz. The proposed conception combines four pentagonal patches and the defected ground structure (DGS) method. The antenna array with a dielectric constant of 4.4 and a tangential loss of 0.025 is printed on a FR4 where its thickness is about 1.58 mm. The developed design aims to optimize the antenna array performance. Th e main contribution, to the telecommunications and WPT fields, is to achieve a maximum energy transfer with low losses, while also ensuring adequate adaptation to the excitation port. To prove the effectiveness of this design, simulation results were obtai ned using computer simulation technology microwave studio (CST MWS) software and validated by another solver high - frequency structure simulator (HFSS). Simulation results are presented and compared with those obtained using existing conceptions in the lite rature. The proposed design has proven to be very effective in achieving the intended objectives, which makes this design very good for radiofrequency (RF) energy collection and its various applications to power a variety of devices without harming our pla net.
