Economic evaluation of rooftop grid-connected photovoltaic systems for residential building in Egypt
摘要: Egypt is a country with high solar energy potential and the exploitation of such promising energy resource is critical for national sustainable development through efficient energy planning with gradual independence from fossil fuels. Successive incentive polices had been introduced by the Egyptian electricity authority to encourage the deployment of small-scale residential rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems. This article studies the techno-economic feasibility of grid-connected rooftop PV system in Egypt under the currently applied retail electricity price and the net energy metering policy. The study investigates three types of residential households with different electricity demand levels; low, medium, and high consumptions. The economic evaluation of various sizes of the PV system is carried out based on different economic measures such as net present value, cost of energy, payback period, and electricity bill saving. Hybrid Optimization of Multiple Energy Resources software has been utilized to carry out such economic evaluation. The results identify that the viability of PV installation in residential applications is clearly affected by the energy consumption pattern, the parameters of the incentive policy applied, and the economical indices of the system.

Data-driven uncertainty analysis of distribution networks including photovoltaic generation
摘要: This paper investigates residential distribution networks with uncertain loads and photovoltaic distributed generation. An original probabilistic modeling of consumer demand and photovoltaic generation is presented that is based on the analysis of large set of data measurements. It is shown how photovoltaic generation is described by complex non-standard distributions that can be described only numerically. Probabilistic analysis is performed using an enhanced version of the Polynomial Chaos technique that exploits a proper set of polynomial basis functions. It is described how such functions can be generated from the numerically available data. Compared to other approximate methods for probabilistic analysis, the novel technique has the advantages of modeling accurately truly nonlinear problems and of directly providing the detailed Probability Density Function of relevant observable quantities affecting the quality of service. Compared to standard Monte Carlo method, the proposed technique introduces a simulation speedup that depends on the number of random parameters. Numerical applications to radial and weakly meshed networks are presented where the method is employed to explore overvoltage, unbalance factor and power loss, as a function of photovoltaic penetration and/or network configuration.

[IEEE 2020 First International Conference on Power, Control and Computing Technologies (ICPC2T) - Raipur, India (2020.1.3-2020.1.5)] 2020 First International Conference on Power, Control and Computing Technologies (ICPC2T) - Load Frequency Control of Solar Photovoltaic/Wind/Biogas/Biodiesel Generator Based Isolated Microgrid Using Harris Hawks Optimization
摘要: This study proposes an approximate mathematical model of an isolated microgrid consisting of solar photovoltaic, wind turbine, biogas, biodiesel generators, flywheel and battery storage system for load frequency analysis. A proportional-integral(PI) cascaded through tilt-integral-derivative with derivative filter(TIDF) controller named PI-TIDF is suggested for load frequency regulation of the microgrid. To tune controller parameters a newly proposed harris hawks optimization(HHO) is applied utilizing ITAE fitness function. The superiority of the HHO is established by comparison with other techniques such as GOA, CSA and GA. Then using HHO, comparison between PIDF, TIDF and PI-TIDF is done for load frequency control. From frequency response, it is found that HHO tuned PI-TIDF is having better performance compared to TIDF and PIDF. Lastly, the ability of the suggested technique is examined by changing the frequency and magnitude of disturbances. In the changed disturbance case, proposed control scheme is proved to have satisfactory performance without retuning the controller parameters.

[IEEE 2019 IEEE Sustainable Power and Energy Conference (iSPEC) - Beijing, China (2019.11.21-2019.11.23)] 2019 IEEE Sustainable Power and Energy Conference (iSPEC) - Analysis of the Impact of MW-level Grid-connected Photovoltaic Power Station on Backup Automatic Switch in Distribution Network
摘要: With the continuous improvement of grid-connected photovoltaic power station capacity, the influence on the reliable operation of backup automatic switch equipment in the distribution network is also increasing. The impact of PV on the backup automatic switch is mainly due to the fact that after the bus line is de-energized, the PV will continue to supply power to the busbar, which will affect the judgment of the busbar without pressure. In this paper, according to the setting value of backup automatic switch protection commonly used in distribution network, under different load-to-source capacity ratio, the influence of PV on the reliability of the backup automatic switch action and the change of the bus voltage of the PV-connected busbar after the main supply line is de-energized are quantitatively analyzed. Through simulation verification, it is proposed that the most fundamental method to avoid the influence of PV on backup automatic switch is to disconnect the PV power station after failure or loss of system power supply, so as to prevent the occurrence of isolated islands.

[IEEE 2019 International Power System Conference (PSC) - Tehran, Iran (2019.12.9-2019.12.11)] 2019 International Power System Conference (PSC) - Optimal model predictive control of photovoltaic plants for frequency regulation in an interconnected power system
摘要: Due to growing development of photovoltaic (PV) plants in power systems, they are capable to provide ancillary service for frequency regulation. PV plants provide the required reserve of generation through operating below the maximum power point tracking. This paper proposes a model predictive control (MPC)-based approach for power control of PV plants contributing towards load frequency control (LFC). In MPC, the control signals are provided through optimizing a cost function which includes the plant model as well as current and past signals of the system. Since the successful performance of the controller depends on the well-adjusting of its weights, the weights of the controller are regulated by sine cosine algorithm to earn an optimal performance. Comprehensive discussions are presented on a three-area interconnected power system. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through case studies and thereby relevant conclusions are drawn.

Wind load analysis of a new linear Fresnel receiver assembly design
摘要: A linear Fresnel collector includes a low-profile reflector array and a receiver assembly with one or more absorber tubes and an optional secondary reflector. This combined optical system concentrates sunlight and converts it into thermal energy. The design of a receiver assembly is critical to the performance of a linear Fresnel collector. A position deviation of a few centimeters for the receiver assembly can result in notably reduced performance, thus leading to a direct loss in revenue associated with thermal power production. Wind load is one of the most significant environmental factors that can alter the optical—and therefore thermal—performance of a solar power system due to displacements after installation. At the same time, an over-designed receiver assembly may add unnecessary construction cost to a typically high-cost-constrained system. Thus, wind load analysis is particularly important when considering optimal engineering design of a receiver assembly and its supporting structure to cost-effectively mitigate the impacts of wind. In this study, a detailed computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model is adopted to derive the wind load of a commercial linear Fresnel receiver assembly. This wind load is then used as a reference to optimize the detailed engineering design. The CFD model is first carefully developed and benchmarked within a critical regime toward turbulence. The drag force, lift force, and vortex-shedding frequencies are derived at both the operating and survival wind-speed limits for target project deployment locations. The wind load analysis results provide a valuable reference for future engineering design and prototyping.

A hybrid output multiport converter for standalone loads and photovoltaic array integration
摘要: Multiport converters (MPCs) are relatively recent power converter structures, which bestow the merits such as the omission of redundant power stages, centralized control, compact packaging, enhanced efficiency, improved reliability, and so on and have larger potential in domestic applications. They have the ability to amalgamate energy sources such as photovoltaic (PV) sources and battery storages, and can accommodate hybrid (ac and dc) domestic loads (bulbs, fans, induction stoves, and electric bike chargers). Hence, they can replace the conventional off-line uninterruptible power supplies, which are habitually used in domestic applications. The unique feature of MPCs is the ability to transfer the power between multiple sources and loads concurrently/independently. This article proposes cascaded sources switched tapping multi-level DC-link inverter (CSSTMLDCLI) involved hybrid loads MPC, which can integrate PV sources and feed above mentioned hybrid domestic loads. The involved novel seven level multilevel inverter structure, the CSSTMLDCLI has reduced component count to offer a high quality ac output, while the dc output is synthesized by a forward converter structure. The working principle of the CSSTMLDCLI along with the systematic design procedure is presented. The validity and effectiveness of the proposed converter are ratified through both MATLAB? Simulink R2016a simulation and the experimentation for a typical solar, battery, and grid supported domestic power backup. The system is managed for a lesser energy purchase using a developed minimal grid usage energy management system, which is implemented using ALTERA QUARTUS II 12.0SP2, field-programmable gate array processor.

Light-Triggered Reversible Self-Engulfing of Janus Nanoparticles
摘要: Block copolymers containing azobenzene liquid crystalline (LC) mesogen are used to prepare snowman-like Janus nanoparticles (NPs) by emulsion solvent evaporation. The azobenzene-containing poly(methacrylate) (PMAAz) head of the Janus NPs is in the smectic LC phase with ordered stripes, which becomes amorphous and enlarged due to trans/cis transformation under UV irradiation. The expanded PMAAz can consequently engulf the other head. The self-engulfed NPs can recover to their original state in both shape and LC state via visible-light irradiation. This strategy is promising for programmable load and release of different payloads by remote trigger using light.

[SpringerBriefs in Applied Sciences and Technology] Sustainable Thermal Power Resources Through Future Engineering || Experimental Investigation on Performance of Solar-Powered Attic Ventilation
摘要: An attic ventilation system has the potential to reduce cooling load and power consumption of an air-conditioning system in buildings that experience elevated temperature in the attic space during the day. For this, a solar-powered attic ventilation system, which harnesses the abundant source of solar energy from the sun, is desired to ventilate the hot attic space in an economical way. On the other hand, it is known that the ef?ciency of photovoltaic (PV) cells decreases when temperature of the solar panel increases. This chapter discusses the design and development of an ef?cient and low-cost solar-powered attic ventilation system. The novelty approach is intended to improve the PV ef?ciency and the overall performance of the system by providing air?ow for the solar panel from out?ow of the ventilation system. The designed and developed solar-powered attic ventilation system consists of an exhaust fan powered by a polycrystalline solar panel, a direct current to direct current (DC-DC) step-down converter power module, ducting system, and ventilation casing assembled together. Components like ventilation casing and angle adjustable mounting for solar panel are prepared through fabrication work. A few experiments and testing on ventilation process and PV ef?ciency are conducted to determine the performance, working condition, and functionality of the developed system. Parameters like ambient temperature and indoor temperature of the research location are studied in the experiment of ventilation process. Solar irradiance, the power produced from the PV, and the power delivered to the exhaust fan are studied through the experiment on PV ef?ciency. The developed solar-powered attic ventilation system reduces the attic temperature by 2.9 °C and keeps the temperature difference between the ambient and indoor in the range of 0.1–0.4 °C. An increment of about 17% was observed for the PV ef?ciency when there is air?ow for the PV module from out?ow of the ventilation system.

摘要: The performance of a nonintrusive load monitoring (NILM) system heavily depends on the uniqueness of the preferred load signature (LS) extracted from each appliance. Some electrical characteristics, such as instantaneous current waveform (CW), instantaneous power waveform, current harmonic, and voltage–current (V –I) trajectory have been proposed as appliance features in the literature. However, in some situations, these LSs cannot effectively distinguish different loads apart. In this paper, a time-domain-based advanced power theory is used to decompose the load current into the active and nonactive orthogonal components. Then, two new LSs have been established based on the nonactive component of the load current, namely, the nonactive CW (if) and the voltage-nonactive current (V –If ) characteristics curve. Simulation and experimental tests show that both of these features can distinguish different appliances. Hence, the proposed LSs can signi?cantly enhance the existing NILM systems.
