Based on the problems caused by today conventional vehicles, much attention has been put on the fuel cell vehicles researches. However, using a fuel cell system is not adequate alone in transportation applications, because the load power profile includes transient that is not compatible with the fuel cell dynamic. To resolve this problem, hybridization of the fuel cell and energy storage device...

The present work investigates the matching of an advanced small scale Combined Heat and Power (CHP) Rankine cycle plant with end-user thermal and electric load. The power plant consists of a concentrated solar power field co-powered by a biomass furnace to produce steam in a Rankine cycle, with a CHP configuration. A hotel was selected as the end user due to its high thermal to electric consump...

The recent changes in the electricity sector have generated a large range of new requirements not only on the electric but also on other energy infrastructures. The authors of this article identify the lack of theoretical knowledge for an integrated, technology-based assessment for possible future system arrangements, and show which type of method can be chosen to overcome it. The paper illustr...

abstract in this paper, a fuzzy pid with new structure is proposed to solve the load frequency control in interconnected power systems. in this study, a new structure and effective of the fuzzy pid-type load frequency control (lfc) is proposed to solve the load frequency control in interconnected power systems. the main objective is to eliminate the deviations in the frequency of different area...

In this paper, the transformers over-load problem of Shiraz substation in Fars Regional Electric Company (FREC) is investigated for a period of three years plan. So the suggestions for using phase shifting transformer (PST) and unified power flow controller (UPFC) in order to solve this problem are examined in details and finally, some economical and practical designs will be given in order to ...

It is widely accepted that transient stability is an important aspect in designing and upgrading electric power system. The objective of this paper was to investigate and understand the stability of power system In this paper, modelling and transient stability analysis of IEEE 9 bus system was performed using POWER WORLD SIMULATOR. The load flow studies were performed to determine pre-fault con...

Problem statement: Load forecasting plays an important task in power system planning, operation and control. It has received an increasing attention over the years by academic researchers and practitioners. Control, security assessment, optimum planning of power production required a precise short term load forecasting. Approach: This study tries to combine neural network and fuzzy logic for ne...

Knowledge of electric load signatures is the foundation of practical technologies for load monitoring, which involves the identification of an electric appliance and the determination of its operating state. Such knowledge can provide benefits to utilities, customers, appliance manufacturers and other stakeholders. Many approaches can help to understand the load characteristics of electrical ap...
