    Efficiency and Cost Evaluation of Distribution Systems Based on Multiple Time Points
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015-07) Onen, Ahmet
    Phase balancing can offer planning engineers a lowcost means of reducing operating costs, improving efficiency in electric power systems. In general, utilities make phase balancing based on peak load by thinking that is the worst case scenario, but every time is not the case. In this paper, time varying phase balancing algorithm is proposed to investigate the effect of hourly phase balancing for all year (8760 hour for a year) and also evaluate system efficiency and cost saving for all hours. Additionally, it is important for the planning engineers to estimate losses accurately to make phase moves, and the peak load does not always provide the most efficient phase moves among the hours in year. In this paper, there different scenarios will be compared; base case, phase balancing based on peak load, and hourly time varying phase balancing. These scenarios will be compared based on loss reduction, and cost saving with Locational Marginal Price (LMP) to provide the planning engineers ideas about effective power system planning. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Design Optimization of an Outer Rotor PMSM for a Drive Cycle Using an Improved Mode Algorithm for a Lightweight Racing Vehicle
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020-10-05) Coşdu, Muhammed Muhsin; Hacan, Ahmet Furkan; Tekgun, Burak
    Hub motors are widely used for light-weight electric drives. The aim of this paper is to design a highly efficient out-runner permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) for a specific drive cycle in order to use it in an electro mobile contest called the 'Efficiency Challenge'. A multiobjective differential evaluation (MODE) algorithm is used to obtain a variety of different design options. The MODE algorithm is altered to incur less computational cost and yield better-distributed results in a comparison with traditional MODE. The alteration is performed in five different aspects: Pareto Front, Selection Algorithm, Population Size, Scaling Factor, and Rectification. The objectives for differential evaluation optimization are minimizing the motor mass and maximizing efficiency for the target drive cycle. The voltage limit and the torque ripple are defined as constraints. The optimization algorithm is written in MATLAB and the finite element analysis (FEA) is conducted in ANSYS/Maxwell 2D. The modified MODE algorithm is optimized for the PMSM with 100 generations and 3282 candidate designs. A well-distributed Pareto optimal solution set is obtained, and a suitable design is selected to be manufactured. © 2022 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Achieving High Optical Absorption in Thin Film Photovoltaic Devices via Nanopillar Arrays and Metal Nanoparticles
    (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2025-07-12) Tut, Turgut
    In this study, crystalline silicon nanopillars has been employed as a hexagonal array photonic crystal structure with low optical reflection, augmented by silver metallic nanoparticles ranging from 10 to 50 nm in diameter in order to achieve high absorption in thin silicon films, a critical factor for applications in photovoltaic devices. Initially, it has been begun with an optimized structure in terms of pillar filling ratio, pillar height, and diameter, as established in the previous study. This allows to obtain a hexagonal array of nanopillars with a surface characterized by low optical reflection. To enhance the optical absorption within the bulk of the silicon thin film, the optical scattering properties of silver (Ag) metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) has been harnessed. The integration of silver metal nanoparticles into the photonic crystal hexagonal nanopillar array involved introducing a cavity into the silicon pillar. Placing Ag MNPs near the bottom of the cavity prevented the degradation of the photonic crystal's ability to maintain low reflection within the desired optical spectrum (between 400-1100 nm). Comparison between the nanopillar hexagonal array structure with Ag MNPs and the bare silicon substrate revealed a remarkable 104.76 percent increase in optical absorption for a 1-micron thick silicon bulk material. This triple hybrid structure exhibits tremendous potential in photovoltaic device applications, including solar cells and photodetectors, with the capacity to significantly enhance conversion efficiency.
