However, due to escalating fuel prices, the marine industry is compelled to search for alternate sources of energy to fulfill its increasing load demands. Simply relying on diesel generators for the same implies significantly increasing the ships' CO2 emissions. Therefore, it is imperative to shift from conventional to renewable sources of energy to minimize fuel consumption and thereby reduce the carbon footprint of the marine industry. This paper explores the impact of using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) with Time varying inertia weight (TVIW), and Triangular PSO on the optimal sizing of PV, Energy storage system and Diesel generator output, onboard an oil tanker so as to minimize emissions at an economical cost.","PeriodicalId":442235,"journal":{"name":"2017 Recent Developments in Control, Automation & Power Engineering (RDCAPE)","volume":"1990 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130743778","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}

This system is designed with several hydraulic, electrical and mechanical dynamics. Therefore, constructing a proper control technique for such an intricate system is still a challenging problem. Turbine governor works as a controller, whereas, the hydro-generating unit is considered as a controlled device. In this paper, five robust control strategies such as PID-SMC (sliding mode control), Feedback linearization based SMC, Fast Terminal SMC, PID and Fractional order SMC are proposed for speed control of non-linear and uncertain HGRS. Lyapunov's direct analysis reveals the convergence of tracking error with all the proposed methods. Among these, the PID-SMC method also eliminates chattering in HGRS control signal. It allows faster tracking of the desired speed with acceptable overshoots, in the presence of system parametric variations or external disturbances. Comparative analysis with the simulation studies is also carried out for HGRS system with the proposed control schemes.","PeriodicalId":442235,"journal":{"name":"2017 Recent Developments in Control, Automation & Power Engineering (RDCAPE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129778501","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}

Some characteristic features of the DAB converter topology are bidirectional power flow capability, inherent soft switching, high power density, high efficiency, galvanic isolation and low number of passive components. In this paper, comparative study of Dual active bridge converter is done with flyback converters. Also efficiency of these converters are compared. Switching of devices for the two converters is also shown. Flyback converter is operated in both buck as well as boost mode.

Changes in voltage value occurs due to the changes in the load. Its evaluation has been done by varying load and for different load cases and varied voltage value is noted. To perform SE, Weighted Least Square (WLS) method is used. Since these method provides the nonlinear estimate, direct measurement of the Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) is used to form a matrix which can directly estimate the result without going to the whole iterative method. For using the PMU in the system, its optimal placement is carried out using greedy algorithm. Voltage stability has been deduced by the use of the several Voltage Stability Indices and other voltage analysis tools. These indices gives the closeness of the system toward the voltage collapse. Values are found to be between 0 and 1 under the load variation from 70% to 120%. Results are shown for the PMU placed buses. Standard IEEE 14 test bus system has been chosen for analysis part using MATLAB R2015a software.","PeriodicalId":442235,"journal":{"name":"2017 Recent Developments in Control, Automation & Power Engineering (RDCAPE)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132900493","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}
