This research paper deals with the design and development of a cylindrical solar drying system feasible for drying of maize cobs. Drying is a highly energy intensive post-harvest process which consumes lots of electricity when conventional energy is used. Thus this research aims to substitute the energy required for drying by non-conventional means. Solar dryers are efficient and economic means of uniform drying agricultural food products which maintains the product quality along with decreasing drying and marketing time and also burden on farmer?s pocket for drying. Maize is considered for the research work here as it is a most important staple crop of India and has largest source of calorie among food grains. The demand for dried maize grains is increasing along with its nutritionally enriched value added products indicating the growth potential of maize industry in developing countries. An effect has been done to improve the dryer so that the drying process can be made more efficient and effective. The developed dryer proved to be technically and economically feasible with a high percentage of internal rate of return ie; 66 per cent. The results of solar assisted dryer when compared with that of open sun drying were better in terms of quality and drying time with a total saving of 7 hours.

Planning models for optimal routing of radial distribution systems Mahmoud Ali Farrag; Maged Gamal Zahra; Shaimaa Omran
International Journal of Applied Power Engineering (IJAPE) Vol 10, No 2: June 2021
Publisher : Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science

This paper presents three planning models for optimal routing of radial distribution systems. In the first two models, the cost function includes capital cost of lines, energy loss cost, and bays cost. The constraints equations include power balance equations, voltage drop equations, radiality equations, logic equations, thermal limit equations, and bus voltage limit equations. The first model considers the energy loss equation in its quadratic form while the second model approximates the energy loss equation of each cable size by a simple linear segment considering the economic loading of each cable size. In the third model, two sub-models are used where the first one gets the optimal radial network configuration regardless of the cable sizes and voltage constraints. In the second sub-model the best cable size on each selected line of the first model is determined to minimize the system costs while considering the bus voltage limit constraint and thermal limit constraint. Verification of the proposed planning models has been made using a real 11 kV 34-bus distribution network with 68 initial lines.

Performance enhancement of shunt active power filter using soft computing techniques Annu Govind; Vijay Kumar Tayal; Prakash Kumar
International Journal of Applied Power Engineering (IJAPE) Vol 10, No 3: September 2021
Publisher : Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science

Nowadays, active power filter (APF) is the most popular device for harmonic compensation. This paper presents the soft computing techniques for compensation of currents harmonics using a shunt active power filter (SAPF). The method includes a 3-phase supply system with a current-controlled voltage source converter (CC-VSC) having an input coupling inductor and output tank capacitor for a self-supported DC bus. The performance of the active power filter can be enhanced by using soft computing techniques such as artificial neural network (ANN) controller and gravitational search algorithm (GSA) for generating control signals of the SAPF. The current reference is calculated to compensate source current THD with synchronous reference frame (SRF) technique with proportional integrator (PI) controller. From the result, it is evident that both the soft computing techniques reduce the computational time & fast convergence which improves the filter performance during the transient period and makes it self-tuned. The proposed structure is simulated using MATLAB/Simulink and subsequently experimentally verified. The presentation of the system is originated to be suitable for numerous features of power quality enhancement structure.

A new method to incorporate three-phase power transformer model into distribution system load flow analysis Rudy Gianto; Purwoharjono Purwoharjono
International Journal of Applied Power Engineering (IJAPE) Vol 10, No 3: September 2021
Publisher : Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science

This paper proposes a new and simple method to incorporate three-phase power transformer model into distribution system load flow (DSLF) analysis. The objective of the present work is to find a robust and efficient technique for modeling and integrating power transformer in the DSLF analysis. The proposed transformer model is derived based on nodal admittance matrix and formulated by using the symmetrical component theory. Load flow formulation in terms of branch currents and nodal voltages is also proposed in this paper to enable integrating the model into the DSLF analysis. Singularity that makes the calculations in forward/backward sweep (FBS) algorithm is difficult to be carried out. It can be avoided in the method. The proposed model is verified by using the standard IEEE test system.

Spectral effects and determining the solar spectral distribution for Mugla and Ankara Murat Kabakci; Rustu Eke
International Journal of Applied Power Engineering (IJAPE) Vol 10, No 2: June 2021
Publisher : Institute of Advanced Engineering and Science

Not only is the theoretical calculation of the amount of solar radiation but also the characteristics of the light so significant in deciding the spectral sensitivity of the PV modules. The amount of radiation reaching on the earth depends on many atmospheric parameters such as wavelength and air mass. Spectral 2 is a model that calculates the amount of radiation for any region depending on the wavelength and atmospheric parameters. There are no theoretical and experimental studies on this subject in Turkey until now. In this study, the amounts of radiation coming to the surface having horizontal and different tilt angles were calculated for Mugla and Ankara. Due to the different climatic characteristics of Mugla and Ankara, the amount of radiation varies. According to the results, in winter and autumn, the amount of radiation which comes to Ankara and Mugla, is different each other. Due to the different climatical and geographical characteristics of Mugla and Ankara, the amount of radiation varies. The model, which is used in this study, due to atmospheric effects that have, is more comprehensive than any other empirical models made in Turkey.
