In any photovoltaic (PV)-based system, the inverter is a critical component responsible for current control between the PV module, battery, loads and power grid. Inverters, which convert direct to alternating current, can be designed to be used with different voltage ranges and topologies for varying applications, and they can also be designed with or without transformers. Besides DC/AC conversion, inverters provide additional functions such as maximizing power, battery charging and protecting the circuit. All of these functions require optimized intelligent control that can occur in real time or near-real time; and the wide variations in application and operational requirements mean that the system control has to be highly flexible. Digital signal processor (DSP)-based controllers, such as the Texas Instruments TMS320C2000 family of controllers, provide the high level of computational performance and programming flexibility needed for the real-time signal processing in solar power inverters. Highly integrated digital signal controllers help inverter manufacturers create more efficient, more cost-effective products that can support the growing demand for solar energy in upcoming years","PeriodicalId":141255,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2006 IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment, 2006.","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128890330","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 combination of traditional/forward supply chain and reverse supply chain is called a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC). A supply chain involves three stages of planning, viz., strategic, tactical and operational. Strategic planning primarily deals with the design (what products should be processed/produced in what facilities etc) of the supply chain that is typically a long-range planning performed every few years when a supply chain needs to expand its capabilities (Pochampally and Gupta, 2005). Tactical planning involves the optimization of flow of goods and services across the supply chain and is typically a medium-range planning performed on a monthly basis. Finally, Operational planning is a short-range planning that deals with the day-to-day production planning and inventory issues on the factory floor. In this paper, we formulate a single-phase linear physical programming model in designing a closed-loop supply chain. This model when solved addresses simultaneously the critical issues, mentioned above, in the strategic and tactical planning of a CLSC","PeriodicalId":141255,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2006 IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment, 2006.","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132863884","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 role of thermodynamics in life cycle assessment of existing and emerging technologies 热力学在现有和新兴技术生命周期评估中的作用

{"title":"The role of thermodynamics in life cycle assessment of existing and emerging technologies","authors":"B. Bakshi, N. U. Ukidwe","doi":"10.1109/ISEE.2006.1650024","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/ISEE.2006.1650024","url":null,"abstract":"Some of the outstanding challenges faced by traditional LCA include the following. LCA is mainly an \"output side\" method due to its focus on emissions and their impact, but such data are often difficult to find, particularly for emerging technologies. Furthermore, although an important goal of LCA is to evaluate the environmental sustainability of technological alternatives, the very ecosystem goods and services that sustain all economic activities are usually ignored. This paper describes how thermodynamics can complement and enhance LCA by addressing these challenges. Ecosystem goods and services may be represented as the cumulative exergy consumed in ecological processes necessary for producing them. This may be calculated via methods in systems ecology and combined with engineering thermodynamics for joint analysis of industrial and ecological systems. A thermodynamic input-output model of the US economy is developed based on this approach, and is used for hybrid LCA. Accounting for ecosystem goods and services is likely to provide a reasonable proxy to life cycle impact even without knowing details about emissions and their impact. This is because as per the second law, exergy is not conserved, but is lost in each transformation step. The exergy lost to the surroundings creates disorder in the environment, which should be related to the impact of emissions. This implies that among alternatives with similar utility, the process with a higher life cycle thermodynamic efficiency should have a smaller life cycle environmental impact. This talk will present some examples as preliminary support of this hypothesis and describe challenges and on-going work for obtaining a more rigorous statistical validation.","PeriodicalId":141255,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 2006 IEEE International Symposium on Electronics and the Environment, 2006.","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130803147","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}

Choosing an appropriate pricing policy can enhance the performance of PRFs by methodically clearing their inventory and increasing profits. This work presents two pricing models to counter the prospect of product obsolescence that can happen either gradually or suddenly. Product obsolescence can cause demand drop and inventory pile up, both of which could dent the revenues of PRFs. In the first model, gradual obsolescence and environmental regulations that limit the disposal quantity in landfills are considered. In the second model, the case of sudden obsolescence is addressed.

While there have been a plurality of proprietary wireless systems developed over the past decade or so for application to this problem, these systems have suffered from robustness and reliability issues, as well as the inability to scale well in cost and network complexity. In 2003, the IEEE 802.15.4 standard was ratified, and almost immediately silicon manufacturers began producing compliant single-chip radios. The ZigBee Alliance, formed in 2002 and dedicated to using the IEEE standard as its baseline wireless communications standard, has developed a specification that allows the rapid creation of mesh networks that are also self-healing. With energy-saving features designed into the basic IEEE standard, and other possibilities applied by the applications developer, IEEE 802.15.4 radios have the potential to be the cost-effective communications backbone for simple sensory mesh networks that can effectively harvest data with relatively low latency, high accuracy, and the ability to survive for a very long time on small primary batteries or energy-scavenging mechanisms like solar, vibrational, or thermal power. This paper focuses on the commercial building control environment and its needs for substantial energy consumption reduction now and in the future by means of more tightly linking the raw energy consumption with the human presence or activity within the building.

Since activating CPM features in desktop and notebook operating systems can save up to $50 per computer annually (and up to $100 per computer where monitor sleep settings aren't already in use), we set out to understand the most common barriers to the use CPM features in enterprise IT environments. Our goal was to develop a set of practical instructions for overcoming technical and other hurdles that stand in the way of their widespread adoption. We first confirmed that the core challenge lay in making CPM compatible with regular computer maintenance tasks - specifically, the periodic delivery of software updates and security patches. IT administrators were concerned that sleeping computers might interfere with these important maintenance events. We subsequently focused our research on developing a set of solutions for maintaining sleep-enabled computers.
