A New Method To Start Loaded Induction Motors, Omar El-Sayed Mohammed Youssef
A New Method To Start Loaded Induction Motors, Omar El-Sayed Mohammed Youssef
Journal of Engineering Research
Three-phase induction motors have a widespread use in industry, and starting of loaded induction motors is an important matter. However, there are few studies on motor starting using variable-frequency drives (VFDs). The existing control schemes, described by these studies, have disadvantages such as dependence on derived characteristics, adjustment of settings, design of controllers, or burden of calculations on the control processor. In this paper, a simple and effective control scheme of VFDs to start loaded motors is proposed. In this scheme, there is no dependence on any characteristic, adjustment of settings, controllers, and rotor speed sensor. By this scheme, the …
Allocation Of Phasor Measurement Units In The Wide-Area Measurement System, Samir Dawoud, Mohamed Elnemr, Alyaa Yehia
Allocation Of Phasor Measurement Units In The Wide-Area Measurement System, Samir Dawoud, Mohamed Elnemr, Alyaa Yehia
Journal of Engineering Research
WIDE Area in the power system which has been introduced to power system literature in the late 1980s. They are now commercially in power systems for purposes of monitoring, operation, and control. The wide area is a combination between the phasor measurement unit (PMU) and communication infrastructure (CI). In this paper, the location of the PMU and the CI can be optimized to involve system observability. There are a lot of methods to solve the optimal placement of PMU. The communication infrastructure is designed and implemented to collect the data from PMU and transfer data to the control center. In …
Optimization Of An Off-Grid Pv/Biogas Hybrid Energy System For Electrification: A Case Study In A Rural Area In Egypt, Ibrahim A. Elzahy, Ahmed Refaat, Samir Dawoud
Optimization Of An Off-Grid Pv/Biogas Hybrid Energy System For Electrification: A Case Study In A Rural Area In Egypt, Ibrahim A. Elzahy, Ahmed Refaat, Samir Dawoud
Journal of Engineering Research
The increasing demand for energy in remote or rural areas, coupled with the environmental benefits and cost-effectiveness of renewable energy sources, has led to a growing interest in off-grid energy systems. This paper proposes an optimized off-grid energy system to supply energy demand for a village and a desalination reverse osmosis water plant (RO) in Shalateen, Egypt, using a combination of photovoltaic (PV) and biomass technologies. To achieve minimizing Loss of Power Supply Probability (LPSP) and Total Net Present Cost (TNPC), two decision variables are optimized using the Harmony Search algorithm implemented in MATLAB. The reliability of a designed system …
Market Analysis And Bidding Strategy Of Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems Considering Emissions, Fatma Elzahraa, Mohamed Elnemr, Samir Dawoud
Market Analysis And Bidding Strategy Of Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems Considering Emissions, Fatma Elzahraa, Mohamed Elnemr, Samir Dawoud
Journal of Engineering Research
The competition in the electricity markets makes it difficult to choose a suitable strategy for maximizing profit while reducing harmful emissions. To have an adequate energy price for consumers while minimizing the harmful emissions to the atmosphere and maximizing profits of all participants in the electricity market needs an aggressive bidding strategy. Developing these bidding strategies with the integration of renewable energy (RE) in the electricity market became important. This research studies various bidding strategies for maximizing profits in the deregulated energy market since participants are keen on developing bidding strategies considering emissions. These bidding strategies will consider the integration …
