A Comparative Study On The Stability And Degradation Of Perovskite Solar Cells, Jyotiska Chakraborty

Masters Theses

This study aims to investigate the environmental factors that affect the performance and longterm stability of the perovskite solar cells (PSCs). PSCs are based on organo-metallic halides (perovskites) that act as a light-sensitive compound that produces excitons when placed under the light. However, PSCs have a limited operating lifetime due to the degradation of the perovskite layer. There are many factors like moisture, UV light, and temperature that lead to the degradation of the perovskite layer. From the literature review, it was found that the PSCs do not degrade with the presence of oxygen in a dry and dark environment. …

Underwater Remotely Operated Vehicle Controller With Pid Stability Regulation, Christian E. Aguirre

Electrical Engineering

The earth’s oceans and rivers remain widely unexplored. Hobbyists and companies across the globe invest money and resources into remotely operated vehicles (ROV) to further expand underwater knowledge. Each ROV includes a controller that operates motors and monitors other crucial system vitals. The ROV Controller project makes the process of designing an ROV simpler and more affordable by providing a multi-purpose programmable controller.

The ROV controller features programmable digital inputs/outputs and analog inputs. The controller processes control signals from analog joysticks, digital signals from a gyroscope and utilizes a MUX to expand the analog input capabilities of the Arduino. The …

Análisis De Estabilidad De Una Microrred Conectada A Un Sistema De Potencia Convencional, Manuel Alberto Silva Rios, Nicolas Trujillo Alfaro

Ingeniería Eléctrica

En este documento se analiza la estabilidad transitoria y de tensión, para una Microrred que incluye Fuentes No Convencionales de Energía Renovable (FNCER). En el sistema de pruebas seleccionado, realice estudios de caso donde puede variar el funcionamiento del sistema por medio de software especializado en sistemas de potencia, en el cual se modela el sistema eléctrico en estudio, para modificar el comportamiento del mismo, contingencias y salidas de operación de los generadores del sistema, como también la viabilidad de mantener conectadas o no la Microrred. Adicional a esto desde la perspectiva de la normativa vigente en Colombia, consulte las …
