The PMa-SynRM is suitable as a traction motor for railway vehicles but is vulnerable to the structural stability of the rotor under centrifugal force. Therefore, the structural characteristics of the PMa-SynRM should be considered, and the structural influences on the electromagnetic performance are also important based on the stress-dependent properties of the electrical steel core. To improve the structural stability, the concept of barrier filling is proposed, which involves inserting a substance into the magnetic flux barrier region of the PMa-SynRM and balancing the loads in the rotor core. The structural analysis results with the barrier fillings are compared for a wide range of their physical properties. We input stress and strain data by element into the rotor electrical steel core of the electromagnetic model, which consists of the identical mesh as the rotor structural analysis results and set conditions to reflect the stress-dependent B-H and iron loss data to analyze the electromagnetic performance including coupled effects. Finally, the best filling substance is derived and applied based on the previous structural analysis results, clarifying the improvement in the structural and electromagnetic characteristics.</p>","PeriodicalId":15577,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrical Engineering & Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141257238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our evaluation is based on metrics such as execution time, resource utilization, and scalability, particularly with increasing data volume. The comparison aims to provide guidance to researchers, practitioners and entrepreneurs on platform selection depending on their specific requirements. The study identified the strengths and weaknesses of both platforms and provided valuable insights into optimizing the performance of big data applications. Text documents and charts for Word Count and PageRank tasks were used for comparison, and performance testing was performed on datasets of different sizes. The results showed that Spark outperforms Hadoop in most applications, especially in iterative computation and real-time data processing, due to its use of in-memory computation. However, Hadoop is best suited for batch processing operations that require multiple steps. It can perform these operations in parallel across multiple cluster nodes, enabling fast processing of large amounts of data.

In Korea, multi-infeed HVDC (MIDC) systems asynchronously interconnect the mainland and Jeju Island to enhance the stable power supply of Jeju power system. However, as the penetration of RE expands, the risk of transmission line (TL) overload increases, affecting both the mainland and Jeju, potentially leading to regional conflicts based on the operation point of MIDC. To mitigate this issue, this study proposes a methodology for determining the optimal operating point of MIDC to alleviate TL overloads and mitigate the possible curtailment of RE. The impact of the operating point of MIDC and the output of RE on TL overloads is determined through a sensitivity analysis using the power transfer distribution factor. We then propose a method to determine the steady-state optimal operating point of MIDC through linear programming-based optimization for the three optimization objectives.

The variable nature of WT and PV resources and single contingencies of CHP units jeopardize the reliability of MG's customers during operation periods. Demand-side response program manages the time-consumption pattern of responsive loads (RLs) to overcome these uncertainties. As a distribution network is often divided into multiple MGs therefore this paper proposes a bi-level reliability-based model for the planning and partitioning of them in presence of RLs. At the first level, Tie Switches (TSs) and energy resources placement are determined to meet the annual peak demand to minimize the total costs. Output results of first level feed to next level as input data until the power exchange between MGs and the upstream distribution system and also RLs participation considering the desirable risk for all MGs customers are optimally calculated to maximize multiple MGs benefit. Since the second-level outputs can affect on first-level results, a bi-level model is applied. A genetic algorithm is used to solve each level's problem. For validation, numerical studies are applied to a 25-Bus test distribution network with three MGs and five TSs. The simulation results show that MG planning in islanded mode causes more investment costs depending on the installation of DERs with higher capacities. In addition, the participation of RLs in planning islanded or grid-connected MGs leads to a significant decrease in the system investment and operation, loss, and reliability costs.</p>","PeriodicalId":15577,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electrical Engineering & Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-05-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141168932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To address these issues and realize practical deployment of open peer review systems, in this paper, we present a template for creating a configurable open peer review system. In particular, using the proposed template, an open peer review system operating on Hyperledger Fabric, which allows flexible and dynamic application of various open peer review policies, can be easily instantiated. In addition, by introducing a broker module, all pieces of information in the review process could effectively be handled in both the existing review system currently in operation and the created blockchain-based open peer review system, allowing a gradual transition to the new system.

On the one hand, the proposed method utilizes a specific feed-forward voltage to decouple the d-q axis current, so that the output of current regulator directly contains the position error signal and rotor magnetic flux information, which simplifies the signal processing. On the other hand, the normalization of position error signal eliminates the influence of rotor speed and magnetic flux on the loop feed-forward gain of position estimation. With the proposed method, the rotor position and the rotor magnetic flux can be observed simultaneously and the process of parameter setting can be simplified.
