Use of a model predictive control framework for optimal control of grid scale electrical energy storage in conjunction with a wind farm

Creator:: Antonishen, Michael P.
Abstract:: Over the last decade, wind penetration in the Pacific Northwest has increased rapidly. The variable nature of this massive new resource has increased stress on the hydropower resource to the point where system limits are currently being reached. In order to cultivate continued growth of the wind energy industry both...

Electromagnetic analysis of energy system devices

Creator:: Li, Yan
Abstract:: Many new applications of energy system devices have been developed to save energy, improve the controllability and stability of industrial processes, and reduce the weight, volume and cost of consumer devices. Due to the novelty of these devices, traditional empirical methods and lumped-parameter circuit theory methods are not sufficient for...

Novel power conditioning circuits for piezoelectric micro power generators

Creator:: Han, Jifeng
Abstract:: Advanced low power devices promote the development of micro power generators (MPGs) to replace the batteries to power them. Due to the trend in decreasing integrated circuit (IC) supply voltages, power supply designers are facing more and more serious challenges. The objective of this research is to design a power...

Development of a grid-scale energy storage solution via demand response using model predictive control of multiple residential water heaters

Creator:: Halamay, Douglas A.
Abstract:: As the growth of renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, and ocean wave, increases, their impact on the electrical grid has been rapidly escalating. Although renewable resources have been able to offset some traditional generation, they have also brought a need for increasing reserve capacity due to their non-dispatchable,...

Improved efficiency in medium-power flyback converters

Creator:: Ruttanapaibooncharoen, Surin
Abstract:: Switch-mode power supplies (SMPS's) not only convert energy, they also consume it. Typical operational efficiencies are approximately 25 to 60% for linear power supplies, and approximately 50-90% for switching power supplies. This means that products whose end-use electronics are dc, such as televisions and DVD players, could consume 50% less...

A base control Doherty power amplifier design for improved efficiency in GSM handsets

Creator:: Ferwalt, Darren W.
Abstract:: In cellular telephones, RF power amplifiers consume a significant part of the total phone current. Reducing the average PA current will extend battery life. In GSM systems the handset is commanded by the base station to transmit at power levels lower than full power much of the time. A Doherty...

Application of Nonlinear Model Predictive Controller for Ocean Wave Energy Conversion Systems

Creator:: Haider, Ali S.
Abstract:: This work addresses the application of Nonlinear Model Predictive Control (NMPC) to a class of ocean wave energy conversion systems in which the cost functional is not in a standard quadratic form, and the WEC model includes the nonlinear effects, such as the hydrodynamic viscous drag. The NMPC implementation is...
