Abstract

Physical studies of the last decade indicate that multi-junction solar cell has higher energy conversion efficiency than single-junction cells. However, choosing the type of material, modeling and finding the parameters of this type of cell has always been one of the leading challenges in this topic. Most of the proposed models are assumed to have predetermined electrical parameters of the cell or regardless of the effect of the tunnel junction, which reduces of the system. This paper discusses the modeling of solar cell triplejunction InGap/GaAs /Ge, taking into account the effect of a tunnel junction and finds the parameters of each subcellular deal. Also, predictive control will be used to control the active and reactive power of the single-phase inverter. The use of this method eliminates the need for the modulation module and the phase-lock loop (PLL). And simplifies the control algorithm for its digital implementation. The proposed cost function of this paper will be such that in addition to controlling the power of the inverter, the closed loop stability will be guaranteed based on the Lyapunov theory. Finally, the performance of the system using the software MATLAB/SIMULINK simulation will be evaluated.

Abstract

In this paper, the optimal incorporation of distributed generation (OIDG) units for the maximization of the system‟s loadability is investigated (based on sizing and siting). To this end a new computational approach for computing maximum loadability of the system is developed. This approach has been compared with the classical one on different radial test systems (RTS) and is found to be faster and more accurate. The OIDG problem is formulated mathematically as an optimization problem with the objective function to maximize system‟s loadability, the imposed constraints are; voltage limits, thermal limits and DG penetration level. The optimization algorithm used is to solve the OIDG problem is the Vortex searching algorithm (VS). The tested radial distribution systems are the standard 33-bus and 69-bus systems. This paper also discusses some other interesting findings about VS algorithm.

Abstract

This paper suggested a new contribution of three phase AC to AC matrix converter MC via fuzzy logic controller FLC to enhance the whole system. However, the weakness of matrix converter is that the input- output voltage transfer is control to 87% for input and output waveform. Also, matrix converter is more sensitive to the trouble of input voltage which deteriorates the system performance. To overcome these problems, and to improve the efficiency of system, FLC with matrix converter is proposed to minimize the sensitivity to the load, and to increase voltage transfer. In this paper the currents a,b,c are converted to alpha and beta current via Clarke transformation . In this method two FLC are used. The error (between alpha current and reference current) (e) and the change of this error (de) will apply to first FLC. The output of FLC is actual alpha current. In the other hand, the error of beta current and the change of error are also passes through the second FLC to produce the actual beta current. The actual alpha and beta current is converted to direct and quadrature d-q current by park transformation. The d-q current is converted to (a, b, c) out currents by inverse park transformation, the results of this method express that the matrix converter with FLC is more capable, high accuracy with better efficiency as compared with conventional matrix converter system.

Abstract

This paper presents an approach to identify risks for different failures that could affect wind turbine performance, and reduce the measured annual electrical production (MAEP). The proposed approach is based on FMECA (failure mode, effects and criticality analysis) and wind turbine performance study. We present firstly the methodology of performance calculation based on IEC 61400 standard, then we identify the energy gap between the MAEP and WAEP for the case study, we present an extended and reviewed FMECA, by introducing definition of factors related to environment, health and security. As a result we present an actions plan for similar failures deduced from wind performance study and risk-based FMECA, in order to reduce failure risks and optimize production by consequence. The case study is a 2.3 MW onshore wind turbine, different data that are used in this paper were collected from SCADA and lidar.

This comparison would be held in three cases, case of variable wind speed with normal operation condition, constant wind speed with line to ground fault condition and variable wind speed with line to ground fault condition. Finally, It demonstrated the MATLAB/SIMULINK model used illustrating results appeared and conclusion.

Abstract

This paper studied the reactive power control of the voltage source converters based high-voltage direct current system (VSC-HVDC). PI (proportional & integration) controller was used in this work to enhance the dynamic response of the system. Gravitational search algorithm (GSA) and sine cosine algorithm (SCA) are used to get optimal parameters of the PI controller. GSA algorithm is based on the gravity law for Newton while SCA depends on mathematical model based on cosine and sine functions. These algorithms have an efficient global Search capability. The VSC-HVDC is exposed to different disturbances for checking the controller robustness. First disturbance was applying three phase faults on the system. While the second one was applying a step change in AC voltage. Finally, Applying step change in regulators reference values. Simulation results proved the controller superiority also verified the enhancement of the system dynamic response.
