In the past decade, solar energy, the fastest growing renewable energy, has been a growing interest in integration to the utility grid. Power electronics converters play important role in renewable energy integration, e.g., integrate the distributed photovoltaic (PV) panels to the grid. In many applications, particularly in the residential area, a single-phase rather than three-phase inverter is used to regulate the voltage from one form to the other while tracking the maximum power point of the PV system. The input voltage and current are DC and its maximum power is desired to be a constant value. However, in the single-phase …

The following APP is part of an investigation and development, carried out to design, and implement a hydroelectric turbine of horizontal axis, in order to generate electrical energy in rural areas, utilizing existing infrastructure or natural waterways such as irrigation canals, piping, rivers and streams. Every industrialized country, as well as, most of the developing nations, have a stake in agriculture and thus access to the infrastructure required for irrigation purposes. Artificial irrigation canals offer advantages such as a clean continuous flow, with the possibility of flow regulation: this together with their vast availability as agricultural infrastructure constitute the main …

This thesis proposed a soft-switched three-port bidirectional DC-DC converter for managing the power flow of a photovoltaic (PV) and battery system. The proposed converter consists of three ports connected to a PV panel, battery, and load. These three ports are interfaced through the high-frequency transformer and use phase-shift control to achieve soft-switching for all converter switches. Compared with the traditional multiport converters, the proposed three-port converter uses the least number of power switches, and zero-voltage switching (ZVS). Simulation and experimental results validate the design and effectiveness of soft switching and power flow control. The converter can work in different scenarios …
