Renewable Energy And Smart Grid Integration Through#11;Advanced Power Electronics, Dr. Adel A. Elbaset May 2013

Renewable Energy And Smart Grid Integration Through#11;Advanced Power Electronics, Dr. Adel A. Elbaset

Dr. Adel A. Elbaset

As electricity demands are increasing day by day causing unbalance in the present grid system which results in various causes like load shedding, unbalance voltage and power quality etc which ultimately affects the consumers. Now to avoid all such situations the only option is to meet the demand by increasing generation but, we are also lagging with the conventional sources so generating more power is also not convenient by conventional ways. Therefore, recent researches are interested in renewable energy system integrated with smart grid through advanced power electronic converters. Smart gird with renewable energy sources have been regarded as the …


Design And Practical Implementation Of A Simple Data Acquisition System For Photovoltaic Applications, Dr. Adel A. Elbaset Dec 2012

Design And Practical Implementation Of A Simple Data Acquisition System For Photovoltaic Applications, Dr. Adel A. Elbaset

Dr. Adel A. Elbaset

There are several commercial systems for testing PV modules under field conditions but they are expensive. This paper presents a design and implementation of a simple, low cost and high efficient data acquisition system for testing the photovoltaic modules under different operating conditions (different solar radiation levels and surface temperatures). It has been designed to be the laboratory basic element for the photovoltaic generators characterization. This data acquisition system is designed to acquire and then records the signals from the different sensors that are used for measuring the different parameters of the PV system. These measurements of the different parameter …
