Abstract

Salt as a phase change material (PCM) in thermal energy storage (TES) can store solar thermal energy in the form of latent heat by experiencing a process known as the melting process. Recently, the melting process can be observed and investigated using an enthalpy-porosity simulation model. However, the use of enthalpy-porosity simulation model is still focused on constant physical properties, i.e., density and viscosity, of the PCM, and thus, the changes in the physical properties with respect to temperature during the melting process are not included in the simulation process. Therefore, this study aims to use the enthalpy-porosity simulation model with temperature-dependent physical properties of the PCM to investigate the melting process. The salt in this study is Potassium Chloride (KCl), and the computational domain is a concentric tube based on the assumption that the salt is fully contained within the computational domain. The physical properties of the KCl salt (density and viscosity) are set as functions of temperature to include the changes in the physical properties with respect to temperature during the melting process. The simulation results show that the melting process period is 450 s. In addition, the tendency of the melting rate, which is defined as the change in liquid fraction per unit time, is observed to decrease during the melting process. Compared with the constant physical properties of the KCl salt, the melting period of the KCl salt with temperature-dependent physical properties is observed to be shorter, with a deviation of 28.57%.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the potential for biomass-based power plant to accelerate the development of renewable energy to replace the role of fossil energy in Merauke district, South Papua Province. The method used in this study is, first, to collect data and analyze the load on the grid system and the portion of the energy mix as well as the availability of woody biomass from forest areas by making a simulation of the development of a 2 x 12 MW Biomass Power Plant. Second, by conducting experiments to obtain woodchip conversion, as the fuel of the Biomass Power Plant, from the wood log and conversion from Biomass Power Plant capacity to the required biomass plantation area. The results provide an overview of the big potency for developing biomass-based power generation by utilizing biomass from the local industrial plantation forest and show the energy transition towards energy independence. This study can be useful for policy makers and opportunities for entrepreneurs or suppliers of wood biomass, as well. For the future, in terms of fuel efficiency, it is necessary to reduce the plantation area as a source of biomass for power plants by reducing the moisture content of the woodchip to increase the calorific value and utilizing the forest residue. Furthermore, the comparison cost study between fossil power plant and biomass power plant, as well as the strategy for preserving the plantation to ensure a steady biomass supply is conducted.

Abstract

Power outages have created significant challenges for power system networks, particularly in developing countries where the electricity demand continues to rise without a corresponding increase in power generation or the expansion of transmission and distribution networks. In Kenya, while there is a well-established transmission line network, the distribution infrastructure remains inadequate for supplying electricity to end consumers. This paper examines the economic load dispatch (ELD) of power system networks utilizing Service Potential Transformer (SPT) substations to provide electricity to villages located near high voltage (HV) lines. The ELD analysis was conducted to identify the optimal economic power output from the Kipevu, Rabai, and Thika thermal power plants, addressing the demand for both conventional and non-conventional substations. A gradient method was employed to calculate the ELD for these three generating units, and the results were validated using the PowerWorld simulator. Findings indicated that the three generators supplied 20 MW, 37.5 MW, and 12.5 MW, respectively. The results obtained from the gradient method are consistent with those obtained from PowerWorld software. Additionally, this study projected an annual fuel cost savings of USD 17,695.20 when ELD was implemented, compared to a scenario of equal load distribution among generating units. Over a ten-year period, these savings would be sufficient to establish a conventional distribution substation to meet the power demands of villages located further away from high voltage lines.

Abstract

This study investigates the application of the Internet of Things (IoT) for wireless control and monitoring of a 3-phase electric motor using a smartphone. The system integrates PZEM-004T, DS18B20, and Hall Effect sensors to collect data on voltage, current, temperature, and rotational speed using the NodeMCU ESP8266 microcontroller. Measurements are displayed on an LCD and transmitted to the Blynk server for smartphone access. A comparative method evaluates the accuracy of sensor readings against standard measuring instruments. Results obtained an average percentage error of 0.5% for the R phase voltage, 0.2% for the S phase, and 0.1% for the T phase. Current measurements reveal errors of 5% for the R phase, 10.3% for the S phase, and 11.7% for the T phase. The control system’s performance varies with internet speed, with an average delay of 0.99 seconds on a 4G network and 2.51 seconds on 3G. Additionally, the study evaluates three protection mechanisms, demonstrating that the motor stops within 4.03 seconds in the event of a phase failure, while overcurrent and overheating protections activate within 8.47 seconds and 3.64 seconds, respectively. Overall, the findings affirm the viability of IoT in motor monitoring and control, emphasizing accuracy and response times under varying conditions.

Abstract

This paper presents the design and construction of a microcontroller-based four-way traffic light control system aimed at optimizing traffic flow by automatically adjusting signal timing based on traffic density at each intersection. The system is built around an Arduino ATmega328 microcontroller inter-faced with break beam infrared (IR) sensors (transmitters and receivers) and LED displays. The IR sensors are installed on both sides of the lanes at regulated intervals to detect traffic density. The system is powered by a 12V DC battery and a 5V, 3A power supply is provided using a buck converter IC (LM2596), which steps down the 12V from the battery to 5V, 3A. This 5V power is used to run the Arduino microcontroller and the Darlington pair ICs for current sinking and sourcing. As vehicles pass through the areas monitored by the IR sensors, the traffic density is measured for each opposing lane, allowing the system to determine which lane should be prioritized for traffic flow. The corresponding LED indicators are then activated accordingly.
