Brushless DC (BLDC) motor is widely used for various applications such as transportation. BLDC motor has many advantages compared to brush motor such as more compact, high robustness and simplest construction. The maintenance of this motor also low compared to brush motor due to absent of the brush inside the motor. For electric bicycle application, the conventional motor has low electromagnetic torque because not properly designed. It faces low torque density as the motor in full load condition especially during climb uphill. In this research, an optimum magnetic energy is being determine by proper selection of permanent magnet size. In addition, this research also increases the input current in dynamic condition into the designed BLDC motor. Finite element method (FEM) is used to analyze other performance characteristic of improved motor such as back electromotive force (EMF), electromagnetic torque, flux linkage, and stator flux density. Parameter for improve the current motor are selected and varied based on the required specification. In conclusion, the research proposed the new motor specification that has highest electromagnetic torque of brushless DC motor. Finally, this research provides guidelines, suggestions and proposes a better improved structure in optimize the magnetic energy in BLDC motor.

The work treats the filter H∞ finite frequency (FF) in Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) two dimensional (2-D) systems described by Fornasini-Marchesini local state-space (FM LSS)models. The goal of this work is to find an FF H∞ T-S fuzzy filter model design in such a way that the error system is stable and has a reduced FF H∞ performance over FF area swith noise is established as aprerequisite. Via the use of the generalized Kalman Yakubovich Popov (gKYP) lemma, Lyapunov functions approach, Finsler’s lemma, and parameterize slack matrices, new design conditions guaranteeing the FF H∞ T-S fuzzy filter method of FM LSS models are developed by solving linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). At last, the simulation results are provided to show the effectiveness and the validity of the proposed FF T-S fuzzy of FM LSS models strategy by a practical application has been made.

To improve power management scheme in standalone mode using hybrid wind-gas turbine system. To reduce electrical fluctuations due to permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) in wind turbine system. For power generation, the wind turbine system is a main source. When there is reduction in wind turbine power generation, then gas turbine gets activated immediately and produces the required electricity in effective manner. This reconfigurable power generation system is controlled by perturb and observe maximum power point tracking (P&O_MPPT) algorithm. The proposed wind-gas power management system algorithm and device performance was analysed and simulated using MATLAB R2021a for various wind turbine experiment parameters. The simulation result shows that the proposed model and algorithm effectively meets the load demand when the wind turbine speed falls below the minimum required value.

The paper proposes a protection to dual stator generator, reluctance rotor, from asymmetrical fault. Which prevents the dual stator generator, reluctance rotor, from electrical sage through working process in order to avoid any interruption in the generator-grid connection. The procedure consummated with injecting suitable reactive power during the fault period. The proposed method that makes it possible for wind turbine application via dual stator winding generators (DSWRG) synchronous mod to stay connected to the grid during asymmetrical faults. It has been built according to trusted simulating mode considering all tested parameters according to experiment work. The expirment, consider the DC link side stability and care about the behavior and performance of machine side parameter. As well the machineability is evaluated to ride through asymmetrical fault by observing the secondary side current which has a big role in saving grid side converter. The control takes a response within 200 ms after fault trigger recognition.

This paper emphasizes the significance of proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controller parameters using a slime mould algorithm (SMA) to reduce load frequency control (LFC) issues in a thermal system in an open market scenario. The SMA is used to solve the parameterization of the PID controller, which was formulated as an optimization problem. The performance of the PID controller parameters improves the dynamic characteristics of the system as frequency in each area, and also deviations in tie line power after sudden load violation. In order to study the efficiency of the proposed method, the system was tested with different power transactions for a small load disturbance and the comparative results were presented. The optimal value of the controller parameters derived from SMA based PID controller is estimated using a finite nonlinear optimization using a performance index based method.

This paper investigates the performance of conventional boost converter, 2-phase interleaved boost converter and 3-phase interleaved boost converter for renewable energy applications especially for solar-powered energy. The advantages of using coupled inductors in interleaved boost converters include increased system efficiency, reduced core size, and also reduced overall current and voltage ripples which increases the lifetime of renewable energy resources. In this paper, the uses of boost converters have been focused explicitly on the interleaved DC-DC charging from a solar-powered battery into electric vehicle (EV) battery storage. Hence, this paper aims to investigate a suitable charging process mechanism from a photovoltaic (PV) battery storage system into EV powered battery system. Using the application of a boost converter with reduced ripple current and ripple voltage decreases switching losses and increases conversion efficiency. The simulation is carried out by using Simulink/MATLAB to evaluate the performance of each boost converter. The results successfully demonstrate the ability of the proposed charging system with an energy efficiency of 90%.

Photovoltaic (PV) panels have drawback of having their peak power reduced when clouds or shade are present. Furthermore, it is only available while the sun shine. Nearby structures, plants, bird droppings, and other obstacles shade operating photovoltaic (PV) devices, effectively reducing the incident solar radiation produced by the modules. When these PV panels are exposed to partial shading, their power efficiency is reduced. A neural network with a kind of artificial neural network is used in the suggested hybrid method (ANN). The key focus of this article is to use environmental effects dependent on partial shading to get the maximum performance from a solar system. The suggested hybrid solution is tested in the MATLAB/Simulink working platform using partial shading test cases, and the efficiency is compared to other approaches. Additionally, the best options for the suggested procedure, current, voltage, and power are examined.

In this paper, a generalized three-phase multilevel power inverter (MLI) structure is proposed under asymmetric configurations. The operating mode and the switching combinations are briefly exposed according to the parity of the number of direct current (DC) voltage sources in use. Subsequently, the proposed topology is evaluated in terms of commonly used factors and then benchmarked against some of the state-of the-art cascaded MLIs featuring multiple DC voltage sources (MDCS-CMLIs) while putting emphasis on the reduction of power switching devices. Moreover, a new nearest level control (NLC)-based modulation technique is designed for the purpose of better comply with some quality grid codes, namely the European EN 50160 and the International IEC 61000-2-12. The identification of the optimal control thresholds is realized by a constrained optimization algorithm (e.g., particle swarm optimization (PSO)) which is implemented in python script and validated through SIMULINK fast fourier transform (FFT) analysis tool. Lastly, the harmonic performance of the proposed technique is compared side-by-side with that of the conventional NLC scheme and exhibits significant reduction in harmonic distortion.

Twelve-pulse rectification system had been widely integrated in today’s DC traction power sub-station (DC-TPSS). This configuration had successfully mitigated low order harmonic distortion. As some research findings had confirmed that the dc voltage and current ripple factors may further minimize by increasing the number of rectification pulses to 18, 24, or 36. This paper had presented a simulation study to investigate the prospect of implementing an eighteen-pulse rectification system in a DC-TPSS. The theory of phase-shifting transformer used to produce an 18-pulse rectifier is presented with simulation verification. Simulation result shows that 3.69% of grid current distortion index is recorded without installing any filters. In addition, the dc voltage and current ripple may also be further reduced for about 30% compared to a conventional twelve-pulse rectification system.

A small-signal analysis of a single-stage bridgeless boost half-bridge alternating current/direct current (AC/DC) Converter with bidirectional switches is performed using circuit averaging method. The comprehensive approach to develop the small signal model from the steady state analysis is discussed. The small-signal model is then simulated with MATLAB Simulink. The small-signal model is verified through the comparison of the bode-plot obtained from MATLAB Simulink and the simulated large signal model in piecewise linear electrical circuit simulation (PLECS). The mathematical model obtain from the small-signal analysis is then used to determine the proportional gain K_p and integral gain K_i. In addition, the switch large-signal model is developed by considering the current and voltage waveforms during load transients and steady-state conditions.
