Pumped storage hydropower (PSH) has the largest capacity among various energy storage systems in the power system globally. In this paper, due to the significant effect of waterway on the transient and dynamic behavior of hydropower plants specifically PSH, several well-known modelling techniques of waterway/penstock for using in the real time digital simulator (RTDS) e.g. dSpace–SCALEXIO, are presented and discussed. RTDS is the intelligent brain of the advanced laboratory setup entitled power hardware in the loop (PHIL) system that is an extremely advantageous laboratory equipment for power system studies and testing hardware and control methodologies in emulated conditions. Results demonstrate that adequate modelling technique should be selected according to the goal and prospect of the research. Furthermore, considering the increase amount of variable speed pumped storage units in recent years and future plans, this paper and its result assist researchers to select a proper modelling technique of waterway for implementing RDTS to model variable speed PSH units in the power system studies.","PeriodicalId":432948,"journal":{"name":"2022 Second International Conference on Sustainable Mobility Applications, Renewables and Technology (SMART)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130892499","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}

Although they belong to the AC machine family, their principle of operation is far from being based on the production of a synchronizing torque and/or a reluctant one. In contrast to radial flux AC machines, transverse flux ones do not have a common air gap in which a rotating field is shared by all phases. Axially-stacked, TFPM phases are intended to be magnetically-decoupled. Each phase has its own air gap(s) where it generates an alternating magnetic field rather than a rotating one in radial flux AC machines. This makes their operation description and analysis far from being obvious from an academic point of view. This paper proposes a simple approach to assess the torque production of different TFPM topologies, based on the BLI law applied to fictitious current loops emulating the PMs. Implemented in a master lecture on special AC machines, the proposed approach has revealed a renewed interest in electromagnetic fundamentals for pedagogical purposes.","PeriodicalId":432948,"journal":{"name":"2022 Second International Conference on Sustainable Mobility Applications, Renewables and Technology (SMART)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133336709","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}

Therefore, supply voltage stability has to be ensured for safety-relevant components even in case of a single fault within the system. Otherwise, single faults could affect redundancy concepts that take over the functionality of a failed part of the system. As power system faults can cause disturbing transient voltage pulses propagating through the overall power system, this is not guaranteed. Critical transients have to be identified and then compensated by appropriate measures, such as capacitive or inductive circuits. Identifying all critical transients in an extended system is a challenging task. Accurate network simulations in time domain could find critical configurations, but tend to be time-consuming. Therefore, this work assesses an alternative frequency domain method to reveal critical resonances that lead to over-voltages. Established modal analysis approaches developed for AC power delivery systems are discussed and adapted to investigate resonant coupling paths within automotive DC supply systems. Finally, an exemplary supply system is analyzed to demonstrate the presented method and evaluate its potential.","PeriodicalId":432948,"journal":{"name":"2022 Second International Conference on Sustainable Mobility Applications, Renewables and Technology (SMART)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130232093","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}

Fuel Cells (FCs) are viewed as a promising solution, since they can provide clean and renewable energy. Regardless the application of FCs, a power converter is required to control their operation. Hence, the overall efficiency of the system is strongly dependent on the efficiency of the power converter. Despite the multitude of power conversion solutions available in the literature, it is not clear which solutions provide the best compromise between efficiency, cost effectiveness, and reliability. On that basis, this paper aims to evaluate the performance of candidate DC-DC converter topologies for FC applications in DC microgrids. Main merits and drawbacks related to each topology will be assessed. Performance analysis will consider parameters like conversion efficiency, ripple, and number of components. A48V DC microgrid and a 3 kW FC, with a voltage range from 68 V-36V are modelled in Simulink.","PeriodicalId":432948,"journal":{"name":"2022 Second International Conference on Sustainable Mobility Applications, Renewables and Technology (SMART)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115404058","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}

So far there have only been studies on specific emissions from brakes and tires of vehicles with combustion engine, which are mainly determined on test benches. Environmental influences or effects in real drive operation of battery electric vehicles are not yet fully known. This paper describes the development of a zero-emission electric vehicle in which the brake particle emissions and the tire particle emissions are collected and removed from the environment. The first part describes the problem of non-exhaust vehicle emissions. These are negative health impacts through fine dust and environmental pollution by microplastic. In the second part the development process of a vehicle with the so called Zero Emission Drive Unit (ZEDU) is described. It shows the development of a demonstrator vehicle with highly reduced particle emissions due to a newly developed brake unit and a newly developed integrated tire emission extraction unit. The vehicle demonstrator was tested on a chassis dynamometer as well as on a test track. First results indicate that the tires emit the highest particle concentrations during the accelerating process. The brake emissions in the presented demonstrator are reduced to zero. The particle measurements show that the extracted tire emissions are reduced by over 90 % due to the used filter system.","PeriodicalId":432948,"journal":{"name":"2022 Second International Conference on Sustainable Mobility Applications, Renewables and Technology (SMART)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132390396","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}
