This paper proposes an energy management strategy for hybrid power system HPS which is composed of a photovoltaic generator, wind turbine, fuel cell generator and NaS battery storage device, feeding a type house. This strategy is based on Fuzzy Logic Control technique. The hybrid power system is sized to provide the energy demand of the inhabitants of the house and if there is an extra power ge...

In this paper, the concept of the modulated-ramp PWM generator is presented. The specific nonlinear behavior of this generator enables an exact linear control-to-output static conversion characteristic of DC-DC switching converters, such as the boost (step-up), buck/boost, Ćuk or Sepic, operating in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM). The resulting linearization leads to a significant improvement...

In recent years, wind energy has become one of the most important and promising sources of renewable energy. As a result, wind energy demands additional transmission capacity and better means of maintaining system reliability. The evolution of technology related to the wind system industry has led to the development of a generation of variable speed wind turbines that present numerous advantage...

This paper presents a new variable speed wind energy conversion systems (WECS). It is based on a six-phase asymmetrical squirrel cage induction generator (SCIG) and a matrix converter (MC) as power electronic interface between six-phase SCIG and electrical network. The analysis employs a rotor flux vector control algorithm and a scalar strategy modulated MC to control the generator. Characteris...

This case study investigates the generator of a large offshore Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT). In particular this case study focuses on the effect of the inherent cyclic torque loading of the VAWT on the generator in terms of the costs and losses experienced. A spectrum of torque control strategies were created based on the ratio q of the allowed electrical torque variation to the mechanical...

This paper presents Maximum Power Point Control for variable speed wind turbine driven permanentmagnet generator. The wind turbine generator is operated such that the rotor speed varies according to wind speed to adjust the duty cycle of power converter and maximizes Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) efficiency. The maximum power point for each speed value is traced using Maximum Power Point...

In this paper1, we present a new pseudo-random sequence generator, constructed by using two ternary linear feedback shift registers (LFSR). This new generator is called an editing generator which is a combined model of the clock-control generator (viewed as insertion) and the shrinking generator (viewed as deletion). It is shown that the editing generator has good properties of randomness, such...

Mechatronic systems are complex interdisciplinary products where many parts are present that overlap each other; electronic control board, electromechanical machines, and power drives. With FPGAs, their control can run faster as multiple operations are executed in parallel. A simulation tool that facilitates the direct translation into hardware of mechatronic control algorithms is desirable. Th...

In this paper we propose a new attack on a general model for irregular clocked keystream generators. The model consists of two feedback shift registers of lengths l1 and l2, where the first shift register produces a clock control sequence for the second. This model can be used to describe among others the shrinking generator, the step-1/step2 generator and the stop and go generator. We prove th...
