Abstract

Interest in isolated microgrids continues to increase as more applications are being explored, such as military bases located in isolated areas, supplying critical infrastructures during emergencies, etc. This paper considers the integration of packaging into the optimal design of a vehicle-borne microgrid suitable for such an application with space limitations. The advantages of this type of microgrid are mobility and the ability to operate while mobile or stationary. Various types of micro-sources are considered to meet multiple loads. To this end, a mixed-integer nonlinear problem is formulated to integrate multiple micro-source sizing and packaging options. The relationship between loads and capital investment is investigated through four different case studies. The case study results show that the proposed optimization framework is highly flexible and effective in finding a design solution for varying operational scenarios. Unlike existing approaches, the proposed method considers packaging constraints in the selection of micro sources ensuring microgrid mobility and rapid deployment, and also identifies a packaging solution for the selected micro sources. A comparative case study showed that the existing approach results in a 20 kW PV favoring renewable sources while the proposed method results in a 10 kW PV prioritizing the packaging and mobility.

移动车载微电网的设计优化

随着对更多应用的探索，人们对孤立微电网的兴趣不断增加，例如位于孤立地区的军事基地、在紧急情况下为关键基础设施供电等。本文探讨了如何将封装集成到车载微电网的优化设计中，使其适用于空间有限的此类应用。这种微电网的优点是移动性强，能够在移动或静止状态下运行。我们考虑了各种类型的微源，以满足多种负载。为此，提出了一个混合整数非线性问题，以整合多个微源的大小和封装选项。通过四个不同的案例研究，探讨了负载与资本投资之间的关系。案例研究结果表明，所提出的优化框架非常灵活有效，能够为不同的运行场景找到设计方案。与现有方法不同的是，建议的方法在选择微源时考虑了封装限制，确保了微电网的流动性和快速部署，同时还为选定的微源确定了封装解决方案。一项比较案例研究表明，现有方法的结果是 20 千瓦光伏发电站偏向于可再生能源，而拟议方法的结果是 10 千瓦光伏发电站优先考虑封装和移动性。
