In this paper, the predictive-based control with bacterial foraging optimization technique for power management in a standalone microgrid is studied and implemented. The heuristic optimization method based on the social foraging behavior of Escherichia coli bacteria is employed to determine the power references from the non-renewable energy sources and loads of the proposed configuration, which consists of a fixed speed diesel generator and battery storage system (BES). The two-stage configuration is controlled to maintain the DC-link voltage constant, regulate the AC voltage and frequency, and improve the power quality, simultaneously. For these tasks, on the AC side, the obtained power references are used as input signals to the predictive-based control. With the help of the system parameters, the predictive-based control computes all possible states of the system on the next sampling time and compares them with the estimated power references obtained using the bacterial foraging optimization (BFO) technique to get the inverter current reference. For the DC side, the same concept based on the predictive approach is employed to control the DC-DC buck-boost converter by regulating the DC-link voltage using the forward Euler method to generate the discrete-time model to predict in real-time the BES current. The proposed control strategies are evaluated using simulation results obtained with Matlab/Simulink in presence of different types of loads, as well as experimental results obtained with a small-scale microgrid.

This paper presents a hybrid AC-DC microgrid to reduce the process of multiple conversions in an individual AC microgrid or DC microgrid. The proposed hybrid microgrid compose of both AC microgrid and DC microgrid connected together by bidirectional interlink converter (BIC). Utility grid, 150kVA diesel generator (DG) and 100kW AC load are connected in AC microgrid. DC microgrid is composed of 100 kW photovoltaic array (PV), 20kW battery energy storage system (BESS) and 20kW DC load. The droop control technique is applied to control the system for power sharing within the sources in AC/DC hybrid microgrid in proportion to the power rating. When the faults occur at AC bus, protection signal applied to breaker for isolating the healthy and faults system. DC faults occur at DC bus, DC breaker isolate the AC and DC bus. The system performance for power flow sharing on hybrid AC-DC microgrid is demonstrated by using MATLAB/SIMULINK.

Изложена методика расчета показателей безотказности электроснабжения (вероятности безотказного электроснабжения и средней наработки до отказа) ответственных приемников морского судна, подключаемых к аварийному электрораспределительному щиту. Методика реализована применительно к судовой электроэнергетической системе с тремя источниками электроэнергии – двумя основными дизель-генераторными агрегатами, подключенными к главному электрораспределительному щиту, и одним аварийным дизель-генераторным агрегатом, подключенным к аварийному электрораспределительному щиту. Рассмотрены различные режимы работы судовой электроэнергетической системы: при работе до первого отказа одного основного дизель-генератора, при параллельной работе двух основных дизель-генераторов, при работе одного аварийного дизель-генератора; а также после обесточивания с учетом возможности последующего включения резервного или (и) аварийного дизель генератора. Методика, с соответствующими корректировками, может быть использована для расчета показателей безотказного электроснабжения в судовых электроэнергетических системах другой комплектации. Расчет показателей безотказности электроснабжения необходим при проектировании для обеспечения требуемого уровня надежности электроснабжения судовых приемников электроэнергии, а при эксплуатации – для предупреждения отказов и планирования технического обслуживания и ремонта элементов судовых электроэнергетических систем. The methodology for calculating the indicators of the reliability of power supply (the probability of failure-free power supply and the mean time to failure) of critical receivers of a sea vessel connected to the emergency electrical switchboard is presented. The technique is implemented in relation to a ship power system with three sources of electricity - two main diesel generator sets connected to the main electrical switchboard, and one emergency diesel generator set connected to an emergency electrical switchboard. Various operating modes of the ship's electric power system are considered: during operation until the first failure of one main diesel generator, during parallel operation of two main diesel generators, during operation of one emergency diesel generator; as well as after de-energizing, taking into account the possibility of subsequent switching on of the backup and / or emergency diesel generator. The technique, with appropriate adjustments, can be used to calculate indicators of reliable power supply in ship power systems of a different configuration. Calculation of power supply reliability indicators is necessary during design to ensure the required level of power supply reliability for ship power receivers, and during operation - to prevent failures and plan maintenance and repair of elements of ship power systems.

This paper is representing power management in a hybrid microgrid. The hybrid microgrid consists of PV, wind, battery, and grid. The power management strategy is mentioned in islanding and grid-connected mode. In a grid-connected system, the grid converter has to monitor and manage the power to flow between microgrid and grid. The voltage shifting based droop control technique is used in DG for proper load sharing when two sources are connected in parallel. DG units in hybrid microgrid have two switching modes including droop control and maximum power tracking (MPPT). The operation of a hybrid microgrid is operated in different thee mode. The bus voltage is the main carrier to switching the mode of a hybrid microgrid. The power management algorithm for hybrid microgrid described here. This renewable-based hybrid microgrid model can be used for different aspects like small residential and commercial buildings. The feasibility and effectiveness of this strategy for hybrid microgrid running in various modes verified by simulation result.

Power Split

The interest of this work is to develop a control strategy to most effectively manage the power split between the energy storage system (ESS) and the diesel generator of a hybrid locomotive. The overall goal is to minimize fuel consumption of the diesel engine, while maximizing battery life of the onboard ESS. This problem proves to be complex due to the conflicting cost functions of fuel economy and battery state-of-health (SOH)[1]. In other words, during a typical drive cycle, fuel consumption is minimized by placing high loads upon the battery while minimizing negative effects on SOH requires more specific loading characteristics of the ESS for the same drive cycle. This work highlights the development of several power split control strategies for effective power management of a hybrid locomotive. The progression from a strict rule-based (RB) control strategy to an equivalent consumption minimization strategy (ECMS) is realized through simulation. Likewise, the advantage of Model Predictive Control (FLC) is also shown in simulation.
