IoT supports electrical and physical parameters monitoring. One of the characteristics that must be checked is electricity usage from electronic gadgets. It is a complex problem to design energy-efficient IoT methods. IoT gets more complicated because of its vast size, and current wireless sensor network approaches cannot be used directly to IoT. Information gathering on the area is monitored by intelligent cellular terminals, intelligent security tools, and other multi-source sensing equipment. That is the foundation for the combined analysis and evaluation of security risk extensive data by cloud computing and edge computing. The IoT-based Power safety tools management (IoT-PSTM) system has been developed to integrate it into intelligent settings, such as smart homes or smart cities, to safeguard electrical equipment. It is meant to increase power security by quickly disconnecting in failure events such as leaking current. The system allows for real-time monitoring and alerting of events using a sophisticated data-concentration architecture communication interface. The goal is to progress and merge several technologies technically and integrate them into a personal safety system to increase security, preserve their availability, eliminate mistakes, and reduce the time required for scheduled or ad hoc interventions. Real-time data transmission, instant data processing from diverse sources, local intelligence in low-power embedded systems, interaction with many on-site users, sophisticated user interfaces, portability, and wearability are the main difficulties for the research project. This article offers a comprehensive explanation of the design and execution of the proposed system and the test findings. The results denote the higher performance of the suggested IoT-PSTM system with IoT module and enhanced performance of 94.7%.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":"50 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90575807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, due to its random character in its time series, accurate forecasting of solar irradiation is a difficult task; but it is important for grid management, scheduling and its balancing. To fully utilize the solar energy in order to balance the generation and consumption, this paper proposed an ensemble approach using CEEMDAN-BiLSTM combination to forecast short term solar irradiation. In this, Complete Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition with adaptive noise (CEEMDAN) extract the inherent characteristics of time series data by decomposing it into low and high frequency Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMF’s) and Bidirectional Long Short Term Memory (BiLSTM) used as a forecasting tool to forecast the solar Global Horizontal Irradiance (GHI). Furthermore, using extensive experimental analysis, the research minimizes the number of IMF’s by integrating the CEEMDAN decomposed component (IMF1–IMF14) in order to increase the prediction accuracy. Then, for each IMF subseries, the trained standalone BiLSTM network are assigned to carry out the forecasting. In last stage, the forecasted results of each BiLSTM network are aggregate to compile final results. Two year data (2012–13) of Delhi, India from National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB) has been used for training while one year data (2014) used for testing purpose for the same location. The proposed model performance is measured in terms of root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), Correlation coefficient (R22) and forecast skill (FS). For the comparative analysis of proposed model, several others models: persistence model, unidirectional deep learning models: long short term memory (LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU), BiLSTM and two CEEMDAN based BiLSTM models are developed. The proposed model achieved lowest annual average RMSE (18.86 W/m22, 22.24 W/m22, 26.25 W/m22) and MAPE (2.19%, 4.81%, 6.77%) among the other developed models for 1-hr, 2-hr and 3-hr ahead solar GHI forecasting respectively. The maximum correlation coefficient (R22) obtained by the proposed model is 96.4 for 1-hr ahead respectively; on the other hand, forecast skill (%) of 89% with reference to benchmark model. Various test such as: Diebold Mariano Hypothesis test (DMH) and directional change in forecasting (DC) are used to analyze the sensitivity with reference to the difference in forecasted and observed value.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82270538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Industrial applications demand BLDC motors free from torque ripple. The torque ripple is due to the unequal commutation period between the energised phase and unenergized phase current. It is a perilous problem in sensorless BLDC drive as it leads to speed oscillations, acoustic noise, serious faults, and vibration in machines. The torque ripple can be reduced either by improving motor design parameter or by improving the motor control strategy. This paper proposes a Proportional Integral (PI) controller-based control scheme for a cuk converter driven sensorless BLDC motor to reduce the torque ripple. The proposed scheme invokes Zero Crossing Point (ZCP) detection with back emf sensing approach. The presence of inductor reduces the ripple in the input and output currents. The performance of the strategy is verified using MATLAB R2018a Simulink for different operating conditions of a BLDC drive and the results prove that the recommended scheme decreases the torque ripple compared to the conventional scheme.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73963202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the perception of the charging status of the electric station and the transmission layer of the RFID, the charging system is designed to collect and store the relevant information from the charging system of the electric station in real time according to the charging status of the electric station and the transmission layer of the RFID. Based on the above information, taking the minimum distance from the user to the charging station, the expected waiting time and the construction cost as the objective function, all demand points are allocated to the corresponding charging station, charging can be provided to users only by building a charging station at the candidate point, and users at all demand points can only enjoy charging services at a specific charging station as the constraint. The optimization model of charging station layout is constructed and solved by genetic algorithm to obtain the best charging station layout. The experimental results show that the layout scale of electric vehicle charging stations based on this method has the advantages of global optimization, strongest adaptability and good economic benefits, and the increase in the number of charging stations can effectively improve user satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82084931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These wind generators reduce the inertia of the system, thus making the system sensitive to grid disturbances. Due to their unique features, the Doubly Fed Induction Generators (DFIG) wind generators are being connected at a large scale. The Energy Storage Device (ESD) offers a viable solution to the integration issues caused by variable-natured renewable energy sources. In this work, the Static Compensator (STATCOM) is attached to the Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) technology to strengthen the wind farm integrated grid system for better performance. The SMES is interlinked with the grid system via a power electronic interface (PEI) and chopper for the energy exchange. This work examines the functioning of the proposed STATCOM as PEI and three-level chopper control circuit based on fuzzy logic for the SMES system. The fuzzy logic based SMES with STATCOM (STAT-SMES) is proposed for a DFIG-based integrated system under different fault conditions. This coupled controller can compensate for both real and reactive powers, improve voltage stability, and can damp power oscillations at a fast rate. The results have been compared without any controller, with STATCOM only, and with the proposed, fuzzy based SMES coupled to STATCOM using MATLAB. The simulation outcomes prove that coupling SMES to STATCOM is effective in handling wind farm integration issues in a better way than STATCOM.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":"2009 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82586543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The highly fluctuating primary energy source causes photovoltaic (PV) generators to suffer from variable output capacity. Such variations can lead to instability in power systems and problems with power quality due to large PV penetration. The role of energy storage devices (ESSs) as a fluctuation compensator is suggested to minimize these issues using RRC. Distributed Generation Systems (DGs) have become a key challenge as the disruption of DG from the grid during faults results in severe difficulties such as power outages and voltage flickers. Low voltage ride through (LVRT) is a promising method for supplying reactive power under low voltage conditions. The proposed method will enable dynamic control of integrated battery storage (BS) to mitigate power fluctuations during the day while simultaneously charging or discharging the integrated super-capacitor (SC) storage to control sudden variations in a BS to a certain magnitude. A system for exchanging energy between the BS and the SC storage provides uninterrupted control of the rapid fluctuations of the passing cloud. The storage capacity savings are evaluated by using the RRC for the smoothing impact of geographical deflection on PV power production. Simulations conducted with real operational PV power output data taken every 1 s from the power plant during one year confirm the validity of the model. The OP-5700 HIL test-bench is used for the real-time results.","PeriodicalId":11205,"journal":{"name":"Distributed Generation & Alternative Energy Journal","volume":"75 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74085327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
