Stability Analysis, Control and Modeling of Micro-grid Connected to Wind Turbine: Effect of Optimal Amplified Converter
Wind turbines as a renewable energy are installed and operated as wind farms in various locations with windy climates. Connecting micro grids to wind turbines can lead to improved power generation and transmission to distribution networks. Therefore, formulating and configuring the micro-grid connected to the wind turbine requires accurate examination of the configuration of the micro-grid wit...
متن کاملConstruction of Hexahedral Block Topology and its Decomposition to Generate Initial Tetrahedral Grids for Aerodynamic Applications
Making an initial tetrahedral grid for complex geometry can be a tedious and time consuming task. This paper describes a novel procedure for generation of starting tetrahedral cells using hexahedral block topology. Hexahedral blocks are arranged around an aerodynamic body to form a flow domain. Each of the hexahedral blocks is then decomposed into six tetrahedral elements to obtain an initial t...
متن کاملGeoLab: An Environment for Development of Algorithms in Computational Geometry
We describe a Computational Geometry Laboratory which we developed as a programming environment for implementation, testing and animation of geometric algorithms. GeoLab was conceived to be a tool for the working researcher or a group of them, since at its root lie the use of shared libraries of algorithms and an incremental approach to aggregating new types of geometric objects, data structure...
متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of the Effect of Pore Structure and Geometry on Petrophysical and Electrical Properties of Tight Media: Random Network Modeling
Several methodologies published in the literature can be used to construct realistic pore networks for simple rocks, whereas in complex pore geometry formations, as formed in tight reservoirs, such a construction still remains a challenge. A basic understanding of pore structure and topology is essential to overcome the challenges associated with the pore scale modeling of tight porous media. A...
متن کاملModeling of Air Relative Humidity Effect on Adhesion Force in Manipulation of Nano-Particles and its Application in AFM
In this paper, the effect of air relative humidity and capillary force on contact geometry of surfaces based on JKR model by Atomic force microscopy was investigated in order to manipulate nano-particles. With transition from macro to nano-scale, the effect of surface forces becomes more significant in comparison with inertial force. Because contact mechanics models are based on surface energy ...
