A novel attempt is made to assess the photovoltaic solar module performance using I-V and P-V characteristics, open circuit voltage, short circuit current; voltage, current and maximum power with different types of reflectors and different positions of reflector namely position 1 (single side arrangement), position 2 (opposite side), position 3 (three side) and position 4 (all sides) . The reflectors are used to increase the solar irradiation that the solar PV modules are exposed and hence increase the generation of electric power. In this study, reflector materials are taken as aluminum foil, white surface paper reflectors and light blue surface paper reflectors. The performances with these are compared with the clean panel. The results show that there is significant augmentation of power with reflectors. Further, it is observed that aluminum foil increases the maximum power approximately double as compared to clean panel with reflector position 4.","PeriodicalId":413723,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power Energy, Environment and Intelligent Control (PEEIC)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131209931","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 domestic AC dimmer that are widely used for controlling the load voltage is based on varying the phase angle of bidirectional triode thyristor (TRIAC) using the time constant value which is manually adjusted using variable resistor or capacitor of gate firing circuit of TRIAC. The AC load connected to these domestic dimmers is isolated using the transformer. The main objective of this work is to implement the digitally isolated forward phase controlled TRIAC based light intensity control from the onsite or at remote location using different topologies that replaces the conventional AC dimmer. The capacitive touch sensor is used for finger touch controlled dimming at the onsite location while the remote dimming is performed using Bluetooth communication interface. To perform onsite dimming, AC input voltage supplied to light source is varied in proportional to the time period elapsed during which the finger is placed over the capacitive touch sensor. In order to facilitate remote dimming, the dimming level signal is supplied from Android based smart phone having the application software for paring connection and data communication with Bluetooth transceiver interfaced with microcontroller.","PeriodicalId":413723,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power Energy, Environment and Intelligent Control (PEEIC)","volume":"290 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132618682","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}

In this aspects dc micro grid unit with power electronics interfacing is playing vital role. To supply power to AC mains networks most of the generators require power invertors which are not cost effective, even where the power may ultimately be delivered to a DC device. A possible solution of this is to install a DC network linking DC devices to DC power supplies but with such networks electrical losses will be higher, transmitting a fixed amount of power as low voltage DC, rather than higher voltage AC. In present work, a cascaded high gain boost converter with solar PV enabled microgrid system is proposed and performance of the converter is discussed in the constraints of low voltage output of PV system. It will step up the voltage level from the photovoltaic array of 19 volt to the level of 380V, suitable for DC Micro-grid applications.","PeriodicalId":413723,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power Energy, Environment and Intelligent Control (PEEIC)","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132963919","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}

Further FR4 substrate is added to enhance the overall gain of the antenna. Proposed antenna divides in two parts, first part is electric dipole that is nothing but a metallic element of ‘+’ sign shape, placed horizontally integrated with rectangular slots and second part is magnetic dipole, that is constructed by reduced width vertical rectangular walls shorted with ground. Low profile of the antenna is maintained by reducing the width of vertical patches with keeping height equivalent to antenna height without compromising the bandwidth. The width of vertical walls has been reduced up to 50% as compared to conventional MED antennas stated in literature. To stabilize the gain size and shape of the ground is kept same as the electric dipole. The designed antenna has shown the impedance bandwidth of 91% for the frequency band of 1.05GHz - 2.55GHz and nearly constant gain of 9±1dBiin desired frequency band. The radiation patterns of the antenna in E-plane and H-plane are symmetrical and closely unidirectional, hence it also satisfied the basic characteristic of MED antenna. Furthermore, the antenna is dc grounded which can fulfil the conditions of various applications and it has shown good radiation efficiency. All experimental results are matched well with the simulated results. Proposed antenna can be used in RADAR systems, Aircraft surveillance, global positioning systems (GPS), satellite TV and some applications of S band as well.","PeriodicalId":413723,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Power Energy, Environment and Intelligent Control (PEEIC)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128869596","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}
