Understanding the effects these sources have on arc flash hazards drives the need to study relevant energy sources that are deployed on naval platforms. A 1000-V valve regulated lead acid (VRLA) battery system presents the greatest need to study as incident energy models can suggest dramatic personal protective equipment (PPE) especially with the inclusion of scale factors. As a part of a collaborative effort between the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) arc flash studies of VRLA battery systems at voltages as high as 936 V have been performed. Findings show that below 800 V, the battery sourced incident energy as high as 0.26 cal/cm\u0000<sup>2</sup>\u0000. Above 800 V, incident energy surpassed 1.2 cal/cm\u0000<sup>2</sup>\u0000 and approached category 1 PPE (4 cal/cm\u0000<sup>2</sup>\u0000). A model derived from this work is used to emphasize the impact enclosure based scale factors have on incident energy estimates.

Long-range radars demand huge power, in the order of hundreds of kW. Radar's phased array antenna houses a large number of electronic devices and works primarily on a dc power supply. Typically, military systems are required to have the highest operational reliability, as a result, electrical system protection plays a crucial role. A high power 310 V dc electrical power grid in radar carries hundreds of amperes of current under nominal operating conditions, results in significant fault current due to very low impedance, and demands a very fast fault interruption device. This article proposes and demonstrates the complete operation of a hybrid dc circuit breaker topology for radar applications. The proposed dc circuit breaker employs a mechanical switch that carries the entire current during the nominal operating conditions, and a power electronic module (PEM) connected in parallel helps in diverting the fault current from the main path. Fault current transfers to the PEM branch in a fraction of a second (5 \u0000<inline-formula><tex-math>$mu s$</tex-math></inline-formula>\u0000), which ensures faster load-side isolation. During the fault interruption process, mechanical switch contact opening experiences both ZVS and ZCS features, resulting in arcless operation, and also helps in faster contact separation. The ZVS and ZCS features greatly improve the reliability of the mechanical switch. The proposed concept does not involve any capacitors or corresponding precharging circuits for the ZVS/ZCS features. The proposed dc circuit breaker is analyzed theoretically, and also by simulations in LTspice. Additionally, an experimental prototype with a dc system rating of 310 V–10 A is developed to experimentally validate the performance of the proposed breaker topology. The article also presents a detailed design and comparative analysis, along with a discussion on the limitations of the proposed dc circuit breaker, and the scope for improvements.","PeriodicalId":100629,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Industry Applications","volume":"5 ","pages":"224-234"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10528799","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140939689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ADRC is a robust adaptive extension of the input-output feedback linearization control (FLC). It performs the exact linearization of the SynRM model by a suitable nonlinear transformation of the state based on the online estimation of the corrective term by the so-called extended state observers (ESO). Consequently, any unmodeled dynamics or uncertainty of the parameters are properly addressed. The control strategy has been verified successfully both in numerical simulations and experimentally on a suitably developed test set-up that provides the ADRC robustness versus parameters variations which cannot be obtained with other model-based nonlinear control techniques (e.g., FLC). Simulation results show the capability of the ADRC to maintain its dynamic performance, even in the presence of quick variations of the SynRM dynamic inductances. Experimental results confirm the robustness of the ADRC versus any model parameter uncertainty. The proposed ADRC has been experimentally compared with a previously developed FLC, in both a tuned and detuned working configuration, with the classic rotor oriented control, and with a finite state model predictive control (MPC), where speed control is integrated into the MPC. Experimental results show far better robustness versus any parameter variation.","PeriodicalId":100629,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Industry Applications","volume":"5 ","pages":"209-223"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10526420","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140939990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Industry 5.0 would present massive customization via transformative technologies, such as cyber-physical systems (CPSs), artificial intelligence (AI), and big data analytics. In Industry 5.0, the AI models must be transparent, valid, and interpretable. AI models employ machine learning and deep learning mechanisms to make the industrial process autonomous, reduce downtime, and improve operational and maintenance costs. However, the models require explainability in the learning process. Thus, explainable AI (EXAI) adds interpretability and improves the diagnosis of critical industrial processes, which augments the machine-to-human explanations and vice versa. Recent surveys of EXAI in industrial applications are mostly oriented toward EXAI models, the underlying assumptions. Still, fewer studies are conducted toward a holistic integration of EXAI with human-centric processes that drives the Industry 5.0 applicative verticals. Thus, to address the gap, we propose a first-of-its-kind survey that systematically untangles EXAI integration and its potential in Industry 5.0 applications. First, we present the background of EXAI in Industry 5.0 and CPSs and a reference EXAI-based Industry 5.0 architecture with insights into large language models. Then, based on the research questions, a solution taxonomy of EXAI in Industry 5.0 is presented, which is ably supported by applicative use cases (cloud, digital twins, smart grids, augmented reality, and unmanned aerial vehicles). Finally, a case study of EXAI in manufacturing cost assessment is discussed, followed by open issues and future directions. The survey is designed to extend novel prototypes and designs to realize EXAI-based real-time Industry 5.0 applications.","PeriodicalId":100629,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Industry Applications","volume":"5 ","pages":"177-208"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10526434","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140939890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This difference between the three phases of voltage delivered to customers can damage the equipment of these customers as well as negatively impact the power system itself. This work presents an approach for predicting voltage unbalance using machine learning. Historical megawatt and megavar data–obtained through a Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system–are used to train an artificial neural network model as a binary classifier with a portion of the data serving to validate the trained model. Voltage unbalance is predicted at an accuracy above 95% for eight substations within the power utility's extra-high voltage transmission network and over 91% for all 42 substations. The trained model is tested in a manner that would be employed using simulated data generated by state estimation software. This simulated data validates the model's capacity to predict the substation buses that would experience voltage unbalance.","PeriodicalId":100629,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Open Journal of Industry Applications","volume":"5 ","pages":"86-93"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10448538","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140002408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate distribution systems modeling is critical for effective distribution system control, operation, and planning. This article proposes novel nonlinear and convex ac optimal power flow (ACOPF) models based on current–voltage (IVACOPF) formulation for an unbalanced distribution system with distributed energy resources (DERs). In the proposed formulation, untransposed distribution lines, shunt elements of distribution lines, distribution transformers, and DERs are modeled. The proposed nonlinear IVACOPF model is linearized and convexified using the Taylor series. The accuracy of the proposed nonlinear and convex IVACOPF approaches for modeling unbalanced distribution systems is compared with OpenDSS and the widely used LinDistFlow method. The proposed accurate convex IVACOPF model has multiple applications for distribution systems management, planning, and operation. Applications of the proposed model on two key parts of advanced distribution management systems (ADMS)—DERs scheduling and state estimation—are presented in this article. The proposed models are tested on the distribution feeder of an electric utility in Arizona with 2100 primary nodes and a large number of rooftop photovoltaic units.

However, a comprehensive comparison of the different control strategies has not yet been carried out. To fill this gap, the concepts are first investigated in-depth in simulations and are then, rigorously validated on a state-of-the-art powertrain test bed under highly dynamic driving scenarios, including full-braking. Furthermore, an improvement of existing shaft torque control approaches, which are mainly based on feedforward control, is proposed to better compete with the other methods. The proposed extension shows higher resilience to low accuracy of torque actuators, while the other concepts exhibit greater robustness against time delays.
