Design and analysis of solitary AC–AC converter using reduced components for efficient power generation system

Considering different applications that require varied power and voltage conversion levels between AC grids and AC loads, AC–AC power conversion between AC grids has become an inevitable technology of energy management systems. An isolated converter for performing AC-to-AC transmission is proposed with minimal components for reduced losses and enhanced system efficiency. Single-phase direct buck-boost AC to AC converter with minimum components constituted with two dual IGBT control units (IGBT 1–IGBT 4), inductor (Lf), and capacitor (Cf) is proposed in this work. The MATLAB/Simulink platform is used to provide in-depth analysis of the circuit and components along with the design guidelines, and simulation outcomes of this proposed model. The voltage gains of G = 2.13, power factor of 0.97, and overall efficiency of 98% are achieved in the proposed system with minimum components of 4 switches, 2 conductors, and 1 capacitor and inductor respectively. The obtained results are compared with existing technology to evaluate the proposed system.

Effect of operating regimes on the heat transfer and buoyancy characteristics of supercritical CO2 natural circulation loop - A numerical study

At present, 82% of global energy is generated by fossil fuels which produce substantial emissions and have a significant impact on the environment. Heat transfer devices play a vital role in enhancing the efficiency of power generation systems and mitigating environmental impact. Among various heat transfer devices, natural circulation loops (NCLs) assume significance due to their simplicity and safety. In the present study, numerical investigations were conducted on three-dimensional rectangular circular cross-section supercritical CO2-based NCL across three distinct operating regimes. These regions include the average temperature of NCL maintained near the widom line (near pseudo-critical region), away from the widom line (higher buoyancy region) and very far away from the widom line (deeply supercritical region). The results indicate that in all regions, there is an increase in both the mass flow rate and heat transfer rate as pressure increases. At a pressure of 14 MPa, the maximum heat transfer rate across all regions is observed. Although the higher buoyancy region exhibits a superior heat transfer rate, the near pseudo-critical region demonstrates efficient heat transfer capabilities. For example, at 11 MPa, the temperature difference in the higher buoyancy region exceeds that in the near pseudo-critical region by 73%. However, the reduction in heat transfer rate in the near pseudo-critical region is only 37% compared to the higher buoyancy regions. For low-temperature applications, the near pseudo-critical region effectively transfers heat. However, in high-temperature applications, the sink temperature should be kept in the liquid-like region to maximize system buoyancy.

Efficient water recovery and power generation system based on air-cooled fuel cell with semi-closed cathode circulation mode

Air-cooled proton exchange membrane hydrogen fuel cell with on-line hydrogen production by hydrolysis has potential for portable applications due to its high volumetric power density and self-humidification. However, plenty of reserve water significantly reduces the power density of fuel cell system. Moreover, water recovery from fuel cell tail gas is difficult, because the tail gas humidity is very low due to excess cathode air as coolant. In this work, the dead-ended anode and semi-closed cathode proton exchange membrane fuel cell is proposed to achieve efficient water recovery and energy conversion via semi-closed cathode circulation mode. In this mode, cathode O2-poor tail gas is recycled as coolant instead of fresh air, which helps to enlarge the tail gas humidity by reducing the stoichiometric ratio of cathode to anode gas. The system lumped model with detailed component description is developed for optimization. >96% water production can be recycled under atmosphere temperature. The demand of fresh air is greatly reduced from 56 to 2 times of the consumption. Besides, the multi-objective optimization between water recovery and electrochemical performance shows high-efficiency water recovery of 94.70% and high energy conversion efficiency of 54.82%.

An optimization of efficient combined cycle power generation system for fusion power reactor

Fusion power plants can meet the energy demands of the world. The high thermal performance of a power generation system is still a challenge and one of the developing trends with a fusion reactor due to the high outlet temperature. A combined cycle system has been optimized to work at high outlet temperature and pressure of fusion power reactor with thermal power of 2500 MWth and its input parameter has been optimized along with impact of partial load to achieve high thermal performance very first time. The combined cycle based on the concept of two stages of expansion in the closed-Brayton-cycle and two reheaters in the Rankine cycle named Schematic-IV with the higher thermal performance of 58.19% as compared to Schematic-I, II and III has been proposed for a fusion power reactor. The increase in more than one expansion stage and reheat stage is not economical because it increased the thermal performance by about half of performance as compared to one. The effect of isentropic efficiency of compressor and heat rate have been investigated to validate the thermodynamic model and calculations. The optimized thermal performance of the combined cycle is 58.19% at a feed water mass flow rate of 592 kgs−1 and steam outlet temperature of 277 °C in the combined cycle. The heat rate decreased and thermal performance increased with the mass flow rate verifying that the thermodynamic model is correct. The thermodynamic analysis of the combined cycle-based nuclear reactor provides insights for better system thermal performance and reveals the effect of key parameters on the system performance.

Efficient coal-based power generation via optimized supercritical water gasification with chemical recuperation

Supercritical water gasification (SCWG) is promising as a clean coal technology and is an emerging topic of interest in sustainable energy. Here, we introduce a clean and efficient power generation system that optimizes SCWG of coal through chemical recuperation. Central to our approach is the innovative utilization of both exhaust and a portion of the syngas as dual heat sources for gasification, simultaneously producing the requisite supercritical water. This chemical recuperation strategy effectively enhances the transformation of coal chemical energy into syngas. The introduced system achieves power generation and exergy efficiencies of 56.64 and 55.30%, respectively, outperforming those of a baseline system by 8.43 and 8.23%, respectively. This gain is primarily attributed to the irreversible losses in the gasification, air separation, and heat-exchange processes of the introduced system, which were reduced by 8.75, 2.47, and 4.17%, respectively, compared with the corresponding values of the baseline system. In order to elucidate and validate the reduced irreversible losses in the introduced system compared with those in the baseline system, we incorporated the energy utilization diagram methodology into our analysis. In summary, the introduced system represents a pivotal advancement in clean and efficient coal-based power generation and underscores the need for continuous innovation in this sector.

The annual fuel cost for the Solar – Taurus 60 is US$1.2 million.

A State-of-the-Art Review on Optimization Methods and Techniques for Economic Load Dispatch with Photovoltaic Systems: Progress, Challenges, and Recommendations

Fossil fuel is considered to be the primary power generation source. As this source is not that eco- and environmentally friendly, researchers are constantly searching for an alternative source for power generation. Renewable energy has drawn much attention in this regard in recent times. For solving economic load dispatch issues, numerous operational constraints must be considered. Due to the restructuring of the power sector, there is competition between different power systems organizations. Increasing fossil fuel costs drive power-producing utilities to adopt a cost-effective technique for dispatching actual power output. Due to the presence of nonlinearity and non-convexity in the fuel of cost function of generators, the economic load dispatch is often considered a complex optimization problem.

It also discusses future technologies and next steps in the field of ELD, emphasizing the need for more environmentally friendly and cost-effective power generation and distribution solutions. Overall, the paper demonstrates the benefits of renewable energy sources as well as optimization techniques for creating a more sustainable and efficient power generation system.

Bilayer Cell Model and System Design of Highly Efficient Protonic Ceramic Fuel Cells

A highly efficient power generation system was designed by minimizing leakage current in protonic ceramic fuel cells (PCFCs) using bilayer electrolytes. The best electrolyte designs are achieved by optimizing the cell efficiency based on the transport properties of electrolyte materials assuming hydrogen as fuel. In parallel, the effect of the electrodes on the overall cell performance was also considered. Additionally, a PCFC system was modeled using the designed cells. Two PCFC systems were investigated. One based on hydrogen as a fuel, and another based on methane as fuel. It was found that a bilayer electrolyte consisting of BaZr0.8Y0.2O3−δ (BZY) with a thin layer of lanthanum tungstate (La28-xW4+xO54+3x/2v2-3x/2) is the most effective at reducing leakage current at 600°C. For this cell, a system efficiency of 69% (LHV, DC) and 65% (LHV, AC) were obtained under the cell voltage of 0.93 V, with a leakage current ratio of less than 1%, and fuel utilization of 95% when using hydrogen as fuel. On the other hand, when methane was used as fuel, the efficiency increased up to 78% (LHV, DC) and 74% (LHV, AC).

Utilization of methane from municipal solid waste landfills

Here, we analyzed the utilization efficiency of methane (CH<sub>4</sub>) gas from landfill sites associated with its power generation potential in different systems; in addition, we analyzed the reduction in the amount of CH<sub>4</sub> emitted from landfills of untreated waste, proposed an effective method for site selection, and investigated the environmental issues caused by landfilling solid waste. Furthermore, we evaluated the geographical and chemical characteristics, iteration variables of landfill operations, application of CH<sub>4</sub>, efficiencies of energy-converting systems, and reduction in the CO<sub>2</sub> emissions from other energy sources, with the landfill gas (LFG) being considered as the fuel. For efficient and quality extraction of CH<sub>4</sub> from LFG, we investigated the ideal landfill conditions (e.g., construction, geometry, weather, temperature, moisture, pH, and biodegradable matter) and hydrogeological parameters that influence the generation of LFG and landfill leachate. The first order decay equation was used to predict the CH<sub>4</sub> generation from a single bulk municipal solid waste stream for various characteristic interims of geography and CH<sub>4</sub> generation capacity and potential. More CH<sub>4</sub> is generated in the conventional clean air act condition than wet and arid conditions. Based on the analysis, we suggest efficient and economical power generation systems for using the CH<sub>4</sub> emissions from landfills.

Research on the performance characteristics of an oil-free scroll expander that is applied to a micro-scale compressed air energy storage system

The oil-free scroll expander, which is the power component of the micro-scale compressed air energy storage (CAES) system, exhibits a satisfactory application prospect. The expander's performance directly influences the efficiency of the expansion power generation system. To enhance the work efficiency of the power generation system, we built a thermodynamic model that facilitates the oil-free scroll expansion mechanism by considering heat transfer and leakage; furthermore, for the micro-scale CAES, we constructed an experiment bench that utilizes air as the working fluid. Based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), we conducted a three-dimensional unsteady numerical simulation of the fluid flow that occurs in the working chamber of the scroll expander. We observed that the suction pressure loss that occurs during the suction process, which is initiated by the scroll expander, leads to inlet pressure drop, and we noted that the suction pressure directly influences the work efficiency of the power generation system. When the setup is subjected to rotational speeds of 1200–3200 r/min, the difference between the theoretical and measured values of volumetric flow decreases from 0.0226 to 0.000527 m3/min. The pressure, velocity, and temperature distribution of the fluid that exists in the working chamber of the expander are not uniform, and the mass exchange that occurs between adjacent working chambers considerably impacts the distribution of velocity and temperature. As gas flows from the back-pressure chamber to the outlet pipe, most of it flows through the non-deforming domain before flowing into the outlet pipe. The fluid flow in the deforming domain is highly complicated, and even secondary flow can occur.

NaNO3-KNO3-KCl/K2CO3 with the elevated working temperature for CSP application: Phase diagram calculation and machine learning

Mixed nitrates with relative low melting point have widely been used as thermal storage medium in the concentrated solar power stations. However, their maximum working temperatures aren’t high enough to integrate with more efficient power generation systems such as the supercritical CO2 cycle. In the present work, mixed nitrates with elevated working temperature were obtained by adding KCl/K2CO3. With the help of FactSage software and back-propagation (BP) algorithm combined with genetic algorithm (GA), the eutectic compositions and melting points of NaNO3-KNO3-KCl and NaNO3-KNO3-K2CO3 were predicted, and the validity of BP algorithm combined with GA was verified. Based on DSC and TG curves, the melting points of the as-prepared NaNO3-KNO3-KCl and NaNO3-KNO3-K2CO3 are 206.12 °C and 207.24 °C, respectively, which are in agreement with predicted values. Moreover, their decomposition temperatures were increased to more than 640 °C. In addition, the specific heat capacity of both mixed molten salts was measured, and it also was calculated by using FactSage software. This work provides two new ternary molten salts based on nitrates with higher working temperature and develops the prediction method on phase diagram calculation and machine learning.

Concept design, parameter analysis, and thermodynamic evaluation of a novel integrated gasification chemical-looping combustion combined cycle power generation system

Integrated gasification chemical-looping combustion (IGCLC) is a potential combustion technology with innate CO2 separation for solid fuels. Coupling this technology with coal-fired power plants is expected to greatly alleviate the high efficiency penalty induced by CO2 capture. This study proposes an innovative system called integrated gasification CLC combined cycle (IGCLCCC) that highly integrates a gasification system, a CLC system, a combined cycle, an ultra-supercritical steam cycle, and a CO2 capture system. In the proposed system, the oxygen-depleted stream from air reactor and flue gas from fuel reactor enter the combined cycle and ultra-supercritical steam cycle, respectively, for power generation. The energy and mass balances of the proposed system are determined by process simulation. The relationship between the performance of subsystems and system efficiency is studied by parameter analysis. Results indicate that the net efficiency penalty (0.3 percentage points) of the proposed system is 4.3 to 13.2 percentage points less than those of the conventional CO2 capture power plants, and the power consumption of specific CO2 capture is minimized to 8.3 kWeh/t. Besides, its net efficiency is as high as 45.0%, which is comparable to that of the natural gas combined cycle power plant with a 90% CO2 capture rate. This work provides a new sight into the design of the low-carbon and efficient power generation system.

Integration of wind turbine with biomass-fueled SOFC to provide hydrogen-rich fuel: Economic and CO2 emission reduction assessment

Addressing the energy crisis and global warming issues would entail urgent development of efficient and environmentally-benign power generation systems to mitigate the future clean energy policies. The biomass-driven SOFC systems are considered in this regard as pioneer technologies to supply clean power, particularly for decentralized applications. However, enough biomass availability and supply is a main challenge to run these systems. In current research to reduce biomass consumption, the biomass-driven SOFC is hybridized with wind turbines to produce pure hydrogen via a PEM electrolyzer. Produced hydrogen is added to the anode of SOFC to enrich the hydrogen content of the synthesis gas fuel. Feasibility assessment of proposed hybrid SOFC/wind turbine structure is examined considering first and second laws. Then, comprehensive economic and environmental appraisals are considered to inspect trade-offs between increased costs (associated with wind turbine and electrolyzer) and increased power as well as decreased CO2 emission. Finally to determine the optimal conditions for proposed system operation, triple-objective optimization via genetic algorithm is implemented. Obtained results have revealed exergy efficiency enhancement by 7.3% and CO2 emission reduction by 13.0 %, via incorporation of wind turbine. These technical and environmental performance enhancements are achieved at the expense of around 6.4 % increase in unit electricity cost, due to the increment of capital expenditures associated with the wind turbine and water electrolyzer. From parametric analysis, it is found that, the proposed framework yields lower electricity price and CO2 emission under higher cell temperatures and lower fuel utilization factors.

Day-Ahead Operation Analysis of Wind and Solar Power Generation Coupled with Hydrogen Energy Storage System Based on Adaptive Simulated Annealing Particle Swarm Algorithm

As the low-carbon economy continues to evolve, the energy structure adjustment of using renewable energies to replace fossil fuel energies has become an inevitable trend. To increase the ratio of renewable energies in the electric power system and improve the economic efficiency of power generation systems based on renewables with hydrogen production, in this paper, an operation optimization model of a wind–solar hybrid hydrogen energy storage system is established based on electrochemical energy storage and hydrogen energy storage technology. The adaptive simulated annealing particle swarm algorithm is used to obtain the solution, and the results are compared with the standard particle swarm algorithm. The results show that the day-ahead operation scheme solved by the improved algorithm can save about 28% of the system operating cost throughout the day. The analytical results of the calculation example revealed that the established model had fully considered the actual operational features of devices in the system and could reduce the waste of wind and solar energy by adjusting the electricity purchased from the power grid and the charge and discharge powers of the storage batteries under the mechanism of time-of-use electricity price. The optimization of the day-ahead scheduling of the system achieved the minimization of daily system operation costs while ensuring that the hydrogen-producing power could meet the hydrogen demand.

Improving the Performance of Bimetallic Thermally Regenerative Ammonia Batteries

Greenhouse gas emissions produced during electricity generation can be reduced by increasing the energy efficiency of power generation systems. One approach to increase generation efficiency is by extracting additional electrical energy from low-grade waste heat (< 100 °C) using thermally regenerative redox flow batteries (TRABs). TRAB chemistries with the largest equilibrium potentials use two different active metals and are referred to as bimetallic TRABs (B-TRAB). In most designs, copper is the positive electrode and zinc is the negative electrode. Using thermal energy, ammonia is moved between battery electrolytes to favorably modify the cell potential of the two electrochemical steps within the cycle. A typical B-TRAB system has four steps to complete a full cycle: 1) high-voltage electrochemical discharge, 2) thermal ammonia separation, 3) low-voltage electrochemical charge, and 4) thermal ammonia separation. During step 1, copper is reduced at the positive electrode and zinc is oxidized at the negative electrode creating aqueous zinc-ammonia complexes. Next, ammonia is separated from the zinc complexes and introduced to the copper electrode electrolyte, thereby increasing the equilibrium potential of the negative electrode, and decreasing the potential of the positive electrode. This creates a smaller cell potential required for electrochemical charging during step 3. After charging, ammonia is thermally separated from the electrolyte and re-introduced to the zinc-containing electrolyte returning the system to step 1. Currently, B-TRAB designs use solid zinc and copper electrodes which lead to low coulombic efficiencies at the copper electrode. Here, we demonstrate how the B-TRAB system can be improved by the addition of ammonium bromide to the positive electrolyte stabilizing Cu(I) species and replacing copper deposition/dissolution reaction with the Cu(I, II) reaction on a carbon felt. As a result, the open circuit potential during charging can be as small as 0.8 V, and as large as 2 V for the discharge step. Polarization curves showed that peak power for the discharge cycle was 98 mW cm-2, a significant improvement over previous B-TRABs.

Hydrogen energy production, storage methods, and applications for power generation

Nowadays, the transformation of energy structure has become an important task for society. The advantages of hydrogen energy also meet the criteria of people's choice of energy. This paper introduces hydrogen production, storage methods, and their application for the power generation. In hydrogen production part, POM is the most satisfactory of four methanol to hydrogen methods as this reaction does not require any energy and can be more than 50% efficient. In terms of photolytic water technology, Ti- and Zr-based Photocatalysts, Ta- and Nb-Based Photocatalysts, Ga and Ge-Based Photocatalysts have been applied to increase the reaction rate, in addition, the device has the advantage of a small footprint, ease of operation and high measurement accuracy. In the microbial hydrogen production section, experiments have shown that hydrogen production is highest in a thermally shocked environment, and that genetic modification of the organisms at the molecular level can also increase hydrogen production. For the hydrogen power generation, the PEMFC is by far the most used experimental product for grid-connected power generation. In the future, researchers should focus on solving various existing problems and developing more economical and efficient hydrogen power generation systems to realize the large-scale use of clean energy. Meanwhile, this paper expects to find better solutions to solve existing problems.

Renewable Energy Technologies in the Global South: Sub-Saharan Africa Trends and Perspectives

Sub Saharan Africa (SSA) and other parts of the Global South are richly endowed with renewable energy resources (RERs) that are grossly untapped. The integration of these resources, such as hydro, wind, solar, and biomass will facilitate the desired net zero-CO2-emissions economy. If these RERs are adequately harnessed, the perennial power supply challenges in the region will be resolved, and the negative power supply narrative changed. Presently, a greater percentage of the population without access to electricity live in the Global South with SSA having the highest share. This inadequacy has been attributed to many factors, which include lack of connection to the national grid; lack of adequate technical capacities to design and manufacture efficient power generation and transmission components and systems; insufficient funds; unreliable, limited, and poor energy data. A comprehensive study of the renewable energy potential (REP) and technologies in the Global South is imperative to the management, regulation, and policies concerning energy, in this era of energy transition (ET). This study presents - a summary of REP of SSA; statistical analysis of the proposed and installed RE capacity across the region; and discussion on the pressing need for renewable energy integration (REI) to mitigate climate change. In addition, to develop RE schemes to facilitate greater access to clean, affordable, and adequate energy supply. Actualization of the integration of RERs into the national portfolio will promote CO2 reduction and improve the socio-economic benefits to the populace in both rural and urban areas of SSA and the Global South generally.

Ecological Consequences of Hydropower Development in Himachal Pradesh with Special Reference to Chamera Dam

Hydropower is an important renewable energy resource and one of the most efficient power generation systems on the planet. Despite all of the benefits of hydropower plants, there may be some drawbacks. However, its growth is accompanied by negative environmental consequences. Hydropower dams are still being constructed at a rapid pace in the developing world and are causing disturbances to river ecology, deforestation, loss of biodiversity, increased greenhouse gases emissions, as well as displacing thousands of people and affecting their food system, water sources, and agriculture. While environmentalists around the country reject massive projects with large reservoirs, locals in Himachal Pradesh consider modest projects as a scourge as well. The steady deterioration in environmental parameters in the hills has serious connotations for sustainable development, not only for the hill areas, but for the country as a whole. The goal of this research is to look at the environmental effects of hydropower and possible mitigating strategies. In short, our aim has been to study how damming has had ecological impacts on the dislocated people, to assess their reaction, receptivity, and outlook towards the projects. The interview method was adopted for collecting data. Survey has been conducted with the help of a well designed interview schedule.

Electrical Power Generation System: Optimal Design for Medium-Load Industries with High-Rated Generators

The demand for electrical power is rapidly increasing due to the rise of industries in developing countries. Power generation stations are having troubles to strike a balance between demand and generation. In this situation, it is urged that appropriate remedial action be taken. Rising power demand can be met by designing an efficient electric power generation system which will also help lowering the generation cost. It is shown that while high rated electric power generators are connected in parallel the value of neutral current is rising and the cooling temperature is also increased. Here, the goal of this experimental work is to present a new model for designing an efficient power production system for average-load (ranging up to 8000 Amp, 440 V) industries to minimize the demand on centralized interconnected grid. A scheme is proposed with four generators (2500 kVA, 2000 kVA, 2000 kVA and 1250 KVA) in parallel and enough cooling arrangement is provided with minimal cost. The coolant temperature is maintained 61 °C to 61.5 °C and at that time diesel temperature is not more than 38.5 °C. The amount of neutral-current is also optimized (up to 8.5 Amp.) which was more than 12 Amp. At the morning and afternoon, the neutral current is almost constant, but it is bit fluctuating between 7.5 Amp to 8.2 Amp at mid-day. The final outcome shows, the suggested system is efficiently stable with the change of load and generates optimal electricity.
