M.Tech. MATLAB/SIMULINK project List 2: Power Electronics, Power System, Renewable Energy based projects

M. Tech. Project List 2015 Branch: Power System Engineering, Power Electronics, Renewable Energy List 2: i. Analysis of PWM based voltage source inverter for adjustable speed drive applications. Pulse Width Modulation variable speed drives are increasingly applied in many new industrial applications that require superior performance. Recently, developments in power electronics and semiconductor technology have lead improvements in power electronic systems. Hence, different circuit configurations namely multilevel inverters have become popular and considerable interest by researcher are given on them. Variable voltage and frequency supply to AC drives is invariably obtained from a three-phase voltage source inverter. Simulation results are obtained using MATLAB/Simulink environment for effectiveness of the study. ii. Analysis and design of grid connected PMSG based Wind Energy power plant Modeling and simulation of a grid connected wind-driven electricity generation system has been done. The power conversion unit features a wind-turbine-driven PMSG, a diode rectifier, and a dc/ac inverter. The Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) offers better performance than other generators because of its higher efficiency and of less maintenance since they don’t have rotor current and can be used without a gearbox, which also implies a reduction of the weight of the nacelle and a reduction of costs. Therefore, in this paper the modeling and control of a PMSG is presented. All the components of the wind turbine and the grid-side converter are developed and implemented in MATLAB/Simulink. iii. Hysteresis based control of grid connected PV inverter This paper describes the Grid Connected Solar Photovoltaic (PV) system Using Hysteresis Current Control Inverter to supplies electric power to the utility grid and is one of the major renewable energy sources. In this paper we are going to develop a complete computer simulation program of a grid connected solar PV system in distribution power network using MATLAB/Simulink and SIM Power System tool. This paper aims to grid-connected solar PV system at steady state and also to study their transient responses to changing inputs. These control method provides robust current regulation, achieve unity power factor, low THD and optimize the PV energy extraction suitable for grid connected PV systems Contact:+91-9557069448, tyagiagam@gmail.com

Does This Energy Storage System Have Potential? ENGINEERING.com

t’s not a new concept: When a wind turbine or solar array generates more energy than you’re using, the excess energy can be stored by pumping water into an elevated holding tank, converting kinetic energy into potential energy. When energy is needed, the water flows down and spins a turbine that generates electricity.

Engineers at MIT are proposing a similar system for off-shore wind turbines, but instead of an elevated holding tank, the water would be stored in a 25 meter concrete spherical tank that also anchors the floating turbine to the ocean floor. The sphere is placed at a depth of 400 meters. Excess electrical energy pumps water out of the tank and into the ocean, and when energy is needed the water flows back into the sphere and drives a hydroelectric generator.
