Abstract

A protection scheme is proposed for the 3 kV DC railway, in Kwa-Zulu Natal province, a region with a high lightning occurrence density. The surge protection was sought by implementing three metal-oxide surge arresters and an overhead ground wire. The purpose of these arresters is determined by their location in the circuit and the points that are vulnerable to adverse lightning effects: an arrester is installed to protect insulators between overhead lines and the supporting metallic mast, an arrester is installed to protect the point of contact between a stationary power supply wire and the train, and an arrester is installed to protect apparatus associated with the running tracks (return rail). An isolated earthing system is explored, and the effects of surge impedances and footing resistances are discussed. The voltage dropped across relevant vulnerable components and energy absorbed by the system components are determined by the simulation software Simulink. These results are compared with a railway system outfitted with the designed lightning protection mechanisms. Lightning currents are injected into the system using Heidler function where the parameters are in compliance with lightning protection standards. It is observed that the protection mechanisms defend susceptible components to a specified level. This demonstrates the success of the design in accordance with arrester protection levels (73.3 kV) and equipment withstand capabilities (a basic insulation level of 143 kV). This offers a protection margin of 95%. The largest percentage overshoot in the system is 39%, and this value is substantiated using reflection phenomena.

Abstract

Hierarchical fuzzy systems (HFSs) have been regarded as a useful solution for overcoming the major issues in fuzzy logic systems (FLSs), i.e., rule explosion due to the increase in the number of input variables. In HFS, the standard FLS are reformed into a low-dimensional FLS subsystem network. Moreover, the rules in HFS usually have antecedents with fewer variables than the rules in standard FLS with equivalent functions, because the number of input variables in each subsystem is less. Consequently, HFSs manage to decrease rule explosion, which minimises complexity and improves model interpretability. Nevertheless, the issues related to the question of “Does the complexity reduction of HFSs that have multiple subsystems, layers and different topologies really improve their interpretability?” are not clear and persist. In this paper, a comparison focusing on interpretability and complexity is made between two HFS’ topologies: parallel and serial. A detailed measurement of the interpretability and complexity with different configurations for both topologies is provided. This comparative study aims to examine the correlation between interpretability and complexity in HFS.

Abstract

The MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) systems in the field of digital communications make it possible to improve data transmission according to two main parameters which are often antagonistic: the information rate and the transmission reliability estimated in average binary error probability (BEP) term. With such systems, CSI (Channel State Information) on transmission is a key point for reducing the BEP thanks to different power allocation strategies. Thus, a linear precoder on transmission associated with a linear decoder on reception can optimize a particular criterion thanks to this information. This paper proposes a MIMO system with precoded orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBC) optimized by Genetic Algorithm with ZF and MMSE equalization. The performance evaluation is achieved by BER vs. SNR graphs.

Abstract

The penetration of the distributed energy resources particularly solar and wind power into the electrical system has been increasing, but the intermittent nature of these resources produces perturbations and instability in the electrical grid. Thus, integrating energy storage system into the power grids is one of the best solutions to improve the reliability with performance of electrical systems; ensure power balance and meet consumer demand. Different technologies of energy storage devices have been used to support the integration of renewable energy resources and contribute to improve either the effectiveness with the management of power operating system during critical situations such as power fluctuations in the electrical grid. The main objective of this work is to test the effectiveness of battery energy storage system in reducing active power fluctuations in presence of a perturbation in a micro-grid. In addition, a comparative study is carried out by comparing the response of different battery technologies which are used to support the electrical grid in order to verify the appropriate battery technology for power systems and particularly for energy management in micro-grids during power fluctuations, also, the evaluation of the behaviour, feasibility, performance and effectiveness of BESS is achieved by using real-time simulation.

Abstract

This paper presents a topology of multi-port phase-shift converter for integration of a PV system, a wind-turbine generator and a battery to supply a grid-connected domestic load. The main advantage of the topology is using a multi-winding high-frequency transformer to couple the input and outputs of the system. This simplifies the power flow control and provides isolation between the converter ports. Detailed operation of the proposed topology and the control system analysis are discussed. A numerical simulation of the proposed system is carried out to confirm the system operation and control technique.

Abstract

A switched reluctance motor (SRM) has been an alternative solution for electric drives because of its benefit features. The use of such a motor in electric vehicles (EVs) or hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) requires a control strategy that is capable to develop high torque. SRMs are commonly available in the market with rotor position detectors embedded inside. Problems will appear when such detectors are not symmetrically installed because most of SRM control strategies are commonly based on them. Inaccurate pulses will be generated by the control circuit which finally takes effect on phase current commutation or the beginning of the excitation which is not on proper angle. The use of such detectors is just capable to give information of rotor position in common angles. Improvement for such problems can be done by generating pulses related to the rotor position in smooth angles. In this paper, a control strategy to produce excitation signals with proper angles for SRM stator winding is proposed. By using input capture facility that is commonly available in embedded system, excitation angles can be controlled precisely because a large number of pulses can be produced by the system. Accuracy level of this strategy is determined by TIMER period of embedded system and speed of SRM. To verify the analysis, laboratory experiments were done. They show that the proposed control strategy is capable to rotate the motor with better performance.

Abstract

Wind power generation is an increasing trend worldwide. Multilevel converters in this regard are playing an essential role in high power system applications due to various features. In this paper, multi-objective optimization based multilevel matrix converter (MOMMC) is proposed for wind energy conversion system. The assessment of feasibility through the discussion of two objectives: reliability and cost have been considered in this study. Initially, the model of the two objectives is assessed against redundancy configuration and power loss. Then a multi-objective function is defined for achieving low cost and high reliability. The optimal topology for the matrix multi-level converter is determined using the membership function, and the solution is selected from the Pareto-optimal set. The reliability and cost analysis of the proposed MOMMC is performed. Simulation is carried out for the proposed multi-objective optimization based multilevel matrix converter using the PSIM software. To establish the validity of the proposed method, two different cases: 1) fixed and 2) variable speed of 9 MW doubly-fed induction generator-based wind energy system are considered. The results show the superiority of the proposed method over the others.

Abstract

Dynamic security is an essential requirement for operating a modern power system. Due to the global increase in load demand, modern power systems witness several dramatic changes in terms of size and implementation of new renewable sources. At the same time, the deregulation process in power operation policy is being pushed to operate closer to its security boundary limits. Based on the combined Decision Tree (DT) algorithm, namely Random Forest (RF) and advance attribute selection technique, this paper presents an approach to address these challenges related to dynamic security assessment (DSA) in the modern power system. The performance of study approach is demonstrated on a modified version of IEEE 9 and 14-bus test system models with presence of two wind turbines (WTs) type WTG 3. Results show the superiority of RF compared to other DT algorithms that are used in this study. In addition, the attribute selection technique could significantly affect the number of attributes required for DSA. This makes DT classifier more effectiveness in the online application. Thus, this approach can provide control center with vital information with high accuracy results and less attributes about security state direction that will help operator to take the right and fast steps to remedy problems and prevent a blackout from occurring.

Abstract

The confronting problem faced by the handicapped, paralyzed, disabled, and quadriplegic people is their independent mobility. They need external assistance to perform their daily life activities. This paper aims to solve that problem by smart designing and deployment of the robotic wheelchair for those who cannot perform their voluntary activities and movements. The proposed automated wheelchair comprises two parts; the first part is the user's helmet that works as a master device, and the second part is a slave device, a smart wheelchair. The master device consists of an accelerometer, microcontroller, and wireless transmitter, in which the Accelerometer recognizes the movements of the user's head and transmits the signal according to the tiltation of the user's head. Besides this, the slave device consists of a wireless receiver, microcontroller, Gyroscope, power MOSFETs, and DC geared motors mounted on a smart wheelchair, which response as per the instructions of the master device. Furthermore, the paper also provides a brief construction of this mechatronic and amphibian system using static and dynamic equations.
