Abstract

Electrical energy is an essential requirement for fishing vessels, and it is primarily generated by diesel-driven electric generators. This energy is utilized for various purposes onboard such as lighting, navigation, and supporting fishing activities including loading and unloading. The efficient operation and longevity of the electric generator onboard depend on ensuring that the load imposed on it does not surpass its capacity. Researchers conducted several phases in this study, including identifying the electrical power distribution system, determining the generator capacity and the electrical load it receives, and calculating the electrical load under various operational conditions. Additionally, the study examined the operational efficiency of the generator under four different conditions. The findings reveal that the fishing vessel employs a radial electrical distribution system and is equipped with two electric generators, each having a capacity of 225 kVA. The generators demonstrate efficient performance across all operational scenarios, with load factors ranging from 79.70% to 83.08%.

Abstract

Control systems are critical for managing, commanding, and regulating the behavior of dynamic systems. A DC motor converts direct current electrical energy into kinetic energy, requiring positive and negative voltage terminals for operation. Due to their ease of control across wide speed ranges, DC motors are widely applied in various industrial sectors. Speed regulation is typically achieved using control devices tailored to specific system requirements. To optimize DC motor performance, this study employs mathematical modeling and control strategies using MATLAB software. The 42D29Y401 DC motor is modeled and simulated using the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and Linear Quadratic Tracking (LQT) methods. Simulation results show that the first-order DC motor achieved a stable step response with an amplitude of 3.40, a rise time of 3.11 seconds, and minor overshoot and undershoot values of 0.501% and 1.98%, respectively. The LQR-optimized system improved performance with an amplitude close to 1, a faster rise time of 1.1 seconds, and reduced overshoot and undershoot at 0.505%. Comparatively, the LQR-based system demonstrated better overall performance than the unoptimized model, while the LQT-based system yielded the highest level of performance among all configurations.

Abstract

A DC motor is commonly utilized as an actuator due to its ability to produce high torque. Controlling the motor's speed is one of the primary methods to manage its performance. Among various wireless communication options, radio waves are preferred since they do not require a clear line of sight between the transmitter and receiver. Employing multiple antennas offers benefits such as enhanced reliability and increased data transmission rates. This study focuses on designing and simulating four types of systems: SISO, SIMO, MISO, and MIMO. The performance of these configurations is evaluated and compared using Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and channel capacity, with variations in antenna count. Simulations were carried out in MATLAB to analyze how different antenna quantities (4, 8, and 16) affect channel capacity across an SNR range of 0 to 30 dB. The simulation outcomes reveal a substantial rise in system capacity, reaching up to 214 bits/Hz/sec when a 16x16 MIMO setup is applied at 30 dB SNR.

Abstract

Induction motors, which operate continuously, such as those used in power plant cooling systems, are at risk of failure that can result in significant losses, such as power outages when the turbine halts due to overheating. Therefore, it is crucial to have a system that monitors the temperature of the induction motor to detect potential overheating and facilitate maintenance. This study aims to design and test a temperature monitoring system for induction motors using thermocouple sensors connected to an LCD display. The methodology begins by identifying issues related to motors running non-stop, followed by a review of relevant literature and system design. Once the system was built, testing was conducted by heating the probe and measuring the temperature with a thermometer to compare the readings with those from the thermocouple sensor. The test results showed that the system accurately displayed the temperature on the LCD, with an error margin that was calculated to evaluate the sensor's accuracy. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the temperature monitoring system functions well and can be used as a reliable overheat detection system for induction motors. This system is expected to simplify maintenance processes and reduce the risk of motor damage caused by overheating. Additionally, the integration of this technology in community-based power plant initiatives could enhance the sustainability and safety of rural energy projects, ensuring a more reliable power supply for community empowerment programs.
