Energy And Exergy Analysis Of Kalina Cycle For The Utilization Of Waste Heat In Brine Water For Indonesian Geothermal Field, Nasruddin Nasruddin, Agus Noor Sidiq, Abdulmajeed Mohamad, Rama Usvika Apr 2015

Energy And Exergy Analysis Of Kalina Cycle For The Utilization Of Waste Heat In Brine Water For Indonesian Geothermal Field, Nasruddin Nasruddin, Agus Noor Sidiq, Abdulmajeed Mohamad, Rama Usvika

Makara Journal of Technology

The utilization of waste heat in a power plant system—which would otherwise be released back to the environment—in order to produce additional power increases the efficiency of the system itself. The purpose of this study is to present an energy and exergy analysis of Kalina Cycle System (KCS) 11, which is proposed to be utilized to generate additional electric power from the waste heat contained in geothermal brine water available in the Lahendong Geothermal power plant site in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. A modeling application on energy and exergy system is used to study the design of thermal system which uses …


Superior Decoupled Control Of Active And Reactive Power For Three-Phase Voltage Source Converters, Hesam Rahbarimagham, Erfan Maali Amiri, Behrooz Vahidi, Gevorg Babamalek Gharehpetian, Mehrdad Abedi Jan 2015

Superior Decoupled Control Of Active And Reactive Power For Three-Phase Voltage Source Converters, Hesam Rahbarimagham, Erfan Maali Amiri, Behrooz Vahidi, Gevorg Babamalek Gharehpetian, Mehrdad Abedi

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents an active-reactive power control strategy for voltage source converters (VSCs) based on derivation of the direct and quadrature components of the VSC output current. The proposed method utilizes a multivariable proportional-integral controller and provides almost completely decoupled control capability of the active and reactive power with almost full disturbance rejection due to step changes in the power exchanged between the VSC and the grid. It also imposes fast transient response and zero steady-state error as compared to the conventional power control approaches. The applicability of the proposed power control strategy for providing the robust stability of the …


Determination Of Electromagnetic Properties Of Steel For Prediction Of Stray Losses In Power Transformers, Leonardo Strac, Damir Zarko Jan 2015

Determination Of Electromagnetic Properties Of Steel For Prediction Of Stray Losses In Power Transformers, Leonardo Strac, Damir Zarko

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper introduces a method for determination of equivalent linear electromagnetic parameters (constant complex permeability and electrical conductivity) of nonlinear magnetic steel, which can be used in a time-harmonic finite-element simulation to yield the same losses in the volume of that material as the measured ones. The conductivity and the static hysteresis loop of the steel have been measured, from which complex permeability as a function of flux density has been extracted. The indirect measurement of losses in various samples of nonmagnetic and magnetic steel has been carried out using a physical model of a transformer core with a coil. …
