Performance enhancement of copper indium diselenide photovoltaic module using inorganic phase change material
摘要: The work presents the method to increase the electrical efficiency and power output of photovoltaic (PV) panel with the use of phase change material (PCM). CaCl2.6H2O–Fe3Cl2.6H2O eutectic has a suitable melting point and high latent heat for temperature regulation of PV panel. The work has been focused on the experimental setup and simulation heat extraction from the PV panel with the use of ANSYS software. A modification of copper indium diselenide (CIS) PV module from Solar Frontier (SF170-S) was made with a eutectic mixture (70:30) of calcium chloride hexahydrate (70%) and iron (III) chloride hexahydrate phase change material. The cell temperature of the PV panel with and without PCM was measured and compared for two typical days. The simulation of the PV-PCM systems comprising both PV panels was performed using ANSYS (fluent) software, followed by the comparison of the results actual experimental data. The experimental results show that the maximum temperature difference on the surface of PV panel without PCM was 9°C higher than that on the panel with PCM in a period of 1 day. Referring to experimental results, the calculation of the maximum and average increase of power gain was made for PV-PCM panel. Final results show that the electricity production of PV-PCM panel was higher for 96.55 Whr in a particular day of experimentation.

Fractal Analysis - Applications in Physics, Engineering and Technology || Fractals in Antennas and Metamaterials Applications
摘要: Recently, telecommunications systems have been requiring more advanced features in the design and operation. Among others a smaller size of devices, which can be integrated for multiple mobile communications systems, applied in one user's device board, such as PDA or smartphone. Moreover, the cost of mass production should be minimized as much as possible. To meet part of that request, the antennas of these devices should have small size, lower weight, operating in multiple frequency bands and/or be broadband. There are many research methods to achieve this goal, one of which is using the fractal geometries for the shape of antenna elements. In recent years, there are many fractal shapes that have been proposed for such applications, and the designed antennas have significantly improved antenna features such as smaller size, operating in multi-frequency bands, with improved power gain and efficiency. In recent years, the new approach for modern antenna the metamaterials, MTM, is adopted, and sometimes that based on the fractal geometry is adopted.

[IEEE 2018 Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEE) - Mashhad (2018.5.8-2018.5.10)] Electrical Engineering (ICEE), Iranian Conference on - L-Band Power Amplifier Design with Discrete GaN Transistor
摘要: In this paper, design and fabrication of a L band solid-state high power amplifier is reported. GaN Transistor is the main active high power element in this amplifier design. ADS simulation is used to design and optimize the input and output matching of the transistor. With these optimized matching networks, more than 100 watt output power is obtained. For the GaN transistor, bias sequencing circuits in the gate and drain terminals are controlled by a digital board. Furthermore, a control loop using software is utilized to achieve a better operation in the fabricated system.
