Hybrid Renewable Energy Generation Through Incremental Conductance Mppt

The relevance of electricity generation from renewable energy sources is growing every day in the current global energy environment. The scarcity of fossil fuels and the environmental risks connected with traditional power producing methods are the main reasons behind this. The major sources of non-conventional energy are wind and solar which can be harnessed easily. A new system design for hybrid photovoltaic and wind-power generation is introduced within this study. A Modified M.P.P.T. has been proposed to strengthen productivity of this system. The proposed approach employs the Incremental Conductance (IC) MPPT technique. Under varied climatic conditions (Solar irradiance & Temperature), IC is utilized to determine the optimum voltage output of a photo voltaic generator (P.V.G.) within the photo voltaic system (P.V.) structure. The Incremental Conductance is utilized to manage the converter’s technology having boosting function. The P.M.S.G. is used to determine the maximum voltage output for varied wind flow rates in wind turbine system. Simulations are conducted in Matlab2019b to test efficacy of the proposed MPPT. The proposed scheme’s effectiveness can be supported with simulation results.

On Theoretical and Numerical Aspects of Bifurcations and Hysteresis Effects in Kinetic Energy Harvesters

The piezoelectric energy-harvesting system with double-well characteristics and hysteresis in the restoring force is studied. The proposed system consists of a bistable oscillator based on a cantilever beam structure. The elastic force potential is modified by magnets. The hysteresis is an additional effect of the composite beam considered in this system, and it effects the modal solution with specific mass distribution. Consequently, the modal response is a compromise between two overlapping, competing shapes. The simulation results show evolution in the single potential well solution, and bifurcations into double-well solutions with the hysteretic effect. The maximal Lyapunov exponent indicated the appearance of chaotic solutions. Inclusion of the shape branch overlap parameter reduces the distance between the external potential barriers and leads to a large-amplitude solution and simultaneously higher voltage output with smaller excitation force. The overlap parameter works in the other direction: the larger the overlap value, the smaller the voltage output. Presumably, the successful jump though the potential barrier is accompanied by an additional switch between the corresponding shapes.

RANCANG BANGUN ALAT PASTEURISASI NON THERMAL DENGAN PULSED ELECTRIC FIELD (PEF)

ABSTRACTPackaged beverages have become a product that is very much on the market both internationally and nationally. In the process of making packaged beverages, in order to last longer the microbes in the drink must first be inactivated in order for the drink to last longer, the microbial inactivation process in the drink is called pasteurization. Convernsional pasteurization is done by heating the drink to be in production. But the high temperature of the drink can change the taste, color, and even nutrition of the drink. This is underpinning the non-thermal pasteurization process by using high voltage impulses (Pulsed Electric Field,PEF). PEF is a technology that utilizes high voltage DC to produce a field between two electrodes. Pateurization occurs when between electrodes there is milk that is flowed with high voltage DC. High voltage generation is performed using flyback transformers with voltage output up to 30 kV. In the pasteurization process given 6 voltage variations namely 5, 10, 12,5, 15, 20, and 30 kV. Pasteurization results are then tested in fmipa microbiology laboratory to find out the success of the tools that have been made. In each voltage variation it is obtained that all treatments have reached pasteurized milk quality standards based on SNI where at 5kV voltage variation can inactivat microbes up to 83.33%, voltage variation of 10kV can inactivat microbes up to 94.5%, At a voltage variation of 12.5 kV can inactivae microbes up to 83.6%, 15kV voltage variation can inactivae microbes up to 88.8%, while voltage variation of 20 kV can inactivae microbes up to 84.2% and at voltage variation 30 kV can inactivae microbes up to 84.8%.Key Words: PEF, Flyback Transformer, ZVS Driver, Pasteurization.

Study on Dynamic Snap-Through and Nonlinear Vibrations of an Energy Harvester Based on an Asymmetric Bistable Composite Laminated Shell

Bistable energy harvesters have been extensively studied. However, theoretical research on the dynamics of bistable energy harvesters based on asymmetric bistable composite laminated plate and shell structures has not been conducted. In this paper, a theoretical model on the dynamics of an energy harvester based on an asymmetric bistable composite laminated shell is established. The dynamic snap-through, the nonlinear vibrations and the voltage output with two potential wells of the bistable energy harvester are studied. The influence of the amplitude and the frequency for the base excitation on the bistable energy harvester is studied. When the frequency for the base excitation with a suitable amplitude in the frequency sweeping is located in a specific range or the amplitude for the base excitation with a suitable frequency in the amplitude sweeping is located in a specific range, the large-amplitude dynamic snap-through, nonlinear vibrations and voltage output with two potential wells can be found to occur. The amplitude and the frequency for the base excitation interact on each other for the specific amplitude or frequency range which migrates due to the softening nonlinearity. The vibration in the process of the dynamic snap-through behaves as the chaotic vibration. The nonlinear vibrations of the bistable system behave as the periodic vibration, the quasi-periodic vibration and the chaotic vibration. This study provides a theoretical reference for the design of energy harvesters based on asymmetric bistable composite laminated plate and shell structures.

Nonlinear Analyses of Porous Functionally Graded Sandwich Piezoelectric Nano-Energy Harvesters under Compressive Axial Loading

In this study, a sandwich piezoelectric nano-energy harvester model under compressive axial loading with a core layer fabricated of functionally graded (FG) porous material is presented based on the nonlocal strain gradient theory (NSGT). The von Karman type geometric nonlinearity and the axial loading were considered. The electromechanical governing equations were obtained using Hamilton’s principle. The nonlinear vibration frequencies, root mean square (RMS) voltage output and static buckling were obtained using the Galerkin method. The effects of different types of porous distribution, porosity coefficients, length scale parameters, nonlocal parameters, flexoelectricity, excitation frequencies, lumped mass and axial loads on the natural frequency and voltage output of nanobeams were investigated. Results show that the porous distributions, porosity coefficient of porous materials, the excitation frequencies and the axial load have a large effect on the natural frequency and voltage output of the sandwiched piezoelectric nanobeams. When the NSGT is considered, the critical buckling load depends on the values of the nonlocal parameters and strain gradient constants. In addition, the electromechanical conversion efficiency of the post-buckling process is significantly higher than that of the pre-buckling process. The flexoelectric effect can significantly increase the RMS voltage output of the energy harvester.

Misalignment-Tolerant Series Hybrid with Active Adjustable Constant Current and Constant Voltage Output Wireless Charging System

This paper presents a series hybrid wireless charging system with an active adjustable circuitry offering constant current and constant voltage output characteristics. The series hybrid system consists of the inductor–capacitor–capacitor (LCC) and series-series (SS) networks are used for improving charging pad misalignment tolerance. An active switch is employed to provide an adjustable CC and CV output for different battery charging stages. To demonstrate the performance of the proposed method, a 310 W prototype was built. A systematic optimization in the parameter of the proposed topology to achieve relative constant output was analyzed within a certain range of the designed operating region. The experimental results indicate that the output current fluctuation is less than 5% with load variations, and the output voltage fluctuation is less than 5% with load varying from 19 to 70 Ω, as the pick-up pads misaligned within 50% of the pad outer diameter.
