In the future, more and more electric vehicle (EV) batteries are connected to the direct current (DC) microgrid. Depending on the battery state of charge, the battery voltage can be higher or lower than the DC microgrid voltage. A converter that is aimed to fulfil such function must be capable of working in both charging and discharging regardless the voltage level of the battery and DC microgrid. Battery performance degradation due to ripple current entering the battery is also a concern. In this paper, a converter that can minimize ripple current that entering battery and operate in two power-flow directions regardless of battery and DC microgrid voltage level is presented. A current control method for this kind of converter was proposed. Experiment on a prototype was conducted to prove the proposed converter current control method.

Solar energy is available abundantly, the utilization of solar energy is developing rapidly and the photovoltaic based direct current (DC) microgrid system design is under demand but the stability of the DC voltage is of most important issue, as the variation of the output DC voltage is a common problem when the load or source voltage varies, hence a regulated DC output voltage converter is proposed. This paper presents source-loadvariable (SLV) voltage regulated cascaded DC/DC converter which is used to obtain regulated output voltage of 203.1 V DC at 0.4 duty ratio with ยฑ2% voltage fluctuations for the variation in the input source voltage and ยฑ1.5% voltage fluctuations for the variation in load resistance of the nominal value with lower output voltage ripple and without use of sub circuits. A simulation model of SLV voltage regulated cascaded DC/DC converter in LTspice XVII software environment for the assessment of converter performance at different input source voltages and load resistances are verified.

Solar energy hasbecomepopular nowadays and desire for clean energy. Since the solar radiation on no occasion remains constant,it keeps on insecure throughout the day. The need of the hour is to distribute a constant voltage to the grid irrespective of the deviation in temperatures and solar insolation. The inverter is designed from a boost converter along with a line frequency. The voltage from the boost converter is fedto the grid through inverter. In this proposed method high efficiency can be achievedby using only one switch functioning at high frequency at a time. The converter uses IGBT and ultra-fast reverse recovery diode. The simulation and experiment results are verified using MATLAB/Simulink software.
This paper presents the design and operation of three-stage buck-boost converter with high gain soft switching using closed loop proportional integral (PI) controller. The proposed converter is designed by arranging three identical buck-boost converters working in parallel. The converter units are connected to each other by an inductor as a bridge. This inductor plays a vital role in soft switching operation of converter by maintaining the voltage applied to switches at zero voltage at switching intervals, i.e., the zero-voltage switching (ZVS). The closed-loop system is designed by PI controller, and it maintains the output constant irrespective of changes in input, and the system becomes stable. The proposed converter is efficient in reducing switching losses, leading to improved converter efficiency. Due to parallel operation of three identical converters, the output voltage and input current contain fewer ripples than those of a single converter with same specifications. Proposed converter is more economical and reliable with simpler structure as it utilizes only two inductors as extra elements. The design and analysis of proposed circuit has been carried out in MATLAB Simulink by operating the circuit in various modes.

In this paper, a generalized switching function-based space vector modulation (SVM) algorithm is presented and evaluated to minimize the dc voltage utilization and the ac utility grid current total harmonic distortion. This paper explores the control and modulation techniques of a single-phase three-leg converter with an active power decoupling method, where a generalized SVM algorithm is proposed and evaluated for easy implementation in a digital control platform. The active power decoupling method with the proposed converter can be achieved via dependent control and modulation techniques. The control method is separated into the ac active power control part and the dc power ripple control part, which can maintain a unity power factor at the ac utility grid and reduced the double-frequency ripple power effect on the dc-side. Simulation results validate the performance of the modulation algorithm and its control and demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed power converter, as well as the two mentioned operation modes of the power converter.
A non-isolated tri-port converter is a fully compact and functional system by the integration of basic converters. This can be used for renewable energy applications. This converter is capable of achieving different switching patterns of power flow between the source and load, interfaced sources of various voltage and current levels with the dc grid. This tri-port converter has to be used for continuous power distribution of rechargeable battery, photovoltaic panels and load. Due to the implementation of this dc-dc converter some operations like buck, boost and buck-boost operations became easy. Use of this converter helps in easy implementation of the system. The solar PV panel implementation boosts the system to a high level and bidirectional flow became easy from source to load and vice versa.

This paper proposes a battery charger solution based on the Zeta DC/DC converter to provide a general interface between batteries and microgrid direct current (DC) buses. This solution enables to interface batteries and DC buses with voltage conversion ratios lower, equal, and higher than one using the same components and without redesigning the control system, thus ensuring global stability. The converter controller is designed to require only the measurement of a single inductor current, instead of both inductors currents, without reducing the system flexibility and stability. The controller stability is demonstrated using the sliding-mode theory, and a design procedure for the parameters is developed to ensure a desired bus performance. Finally, simulations and experiments validate the performance of the proposed solution under realistic operation conditions.

five-level and seven level cascaded multilevel voltage source inverter based active filter for power line
conditioning to improve power quality in the distribution network. The DSTATCOM helps to improve the
power factor and eliminate the Total Harmonics Distortion (THD) drawn from a Non-Liner Diode Rectifier

obtained through Matlab/Simulink software package.
In the microgrid systems, three-phase inverter becomes the main power electronic interface for renewable distributed energy resources (DERs), especially for the islanded microgrids in which the power quality is easily affected by unbalanced and nonlinear loads, this is due to the fact that the voltage and frequency of the microgrid are not supported by the main power grid but determined only by the inverters. Therefore, the compensation of the load unbalances and harmonics in autonomous microgrid inverters are getting more attention in power quality research areas. The main purpose of this paper is to represent an overview of the control strategies of various inverters for unbalanced load compensation.

Cascade connection enables very low voltage ratio without using very small duty cycles nor transformers. Large current with very low ripple content is achieved by using the multiphase technique. The proposed converter needs smaller number of components compared to conventional cascade multiphase DC-DC buck power converters.

In this paper a buck-boost dc-dc converter for pv application is proposed, which is mainly composed of a buck โ boost converter, PV panel, load and a battery. Existing dc-dc converter can convert the power from the PV panel, but unfortunately the PV panel can only provide power when there is a high intensity of light. In order to provide power supply to the load without any interruption, buck-boost dc-dc converter is introduced. The power intermittency issue of PV panel can be overcome with the aid of a secondary supply which is in this case, the batter. The integration system between the primary and the secondary supply is controlled by a simple proposed control scheme. Battery act as a power in the low voltage side while PV panel is taking over in the high voltage side. Buck-boost converter is operated either is buck or boost mode according to the performance of the PV panel. This paper is presented the simple control scheme to decide the mode suitable for the buck and boost mode. Various conditions are simulated to verify the working operation of the buck-boost converter and to representing solar panel in real life. Simulation and experimental are carried out to verify the system.

findings discussed the relevant to the sustainable development goals (SDGs),
particularly SDG 7 and SDG 13. The results considered contributions made
by women in the various sectors while taking geographic dispersion into
account. The bibliometric analysis delves into topics including women's
leadership in environmental groups, their involvement in policymaking, their
contributions to sustainable development projects, and the influence of
gender diversity on attempts to mitigate climate change. This study's results

ย
The active and reactive load changes have a significant impact on voltage
and frequency. In this paper, in order to stabilize the microgrid (MG) against
load variations in islanding mode, the active and reactive power of all
distributed generators (DGs), including energy storage (battery), diesel
generator, and micro-turbine, are controlled. The micro-turbine generator is
connected to MG through a three-phase to three-phase matrix converter, and
the droop control method is applied for controlling the voltage and
frequency of MG. In addition, a method is introduced for voltage and
frequency control of micro-turbines in the transition state from gridconnected mode to islanding mode. A novel switching strategy of the matrix
converter is used for converting the high-frequency output voltage of the
micro-turbine to the grid-side frequency of the utility system. Moreover,
using the switching strategy, the low-order harmonics in the output current
and voltage are not produced, and consequently, the size of the output filter
would be reduced. In fact, the suggested control strategy is load-independent
and has no frequency conversion restrictions. The proposed approach for
voltage and frequency regulation demonstrates exceptional performance and
favorable response across various load alteration scenarios. The suggested
strategy is examined in several scenarios in the MG test systems, and the
simulation results are addressed.

identification of a Li-ion battery, employing a nonlinear autoregressive with
exogenous inputs (NARX) model. The proposed approach integrates the
benefits of nonlinear modeling with the adaptability of the NARX structure,
facilitating a more comprehensive representation of the intricate
electrochemical processes within the battery. Experimental data collected
from a Li-ion battery operating under diverse scenarios are employed to
validate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. The identified
NARX model exhibits superior accuracy in predicting the battery's behavior

Use of analytical hierarchy process for selecting and prioritizing islanding ...IJECEIAES
ย
One of the problems that are associated to power systems is islanding
condition, which must be rapidly and properly detected to prevent any
negative consequences on the system's protection, stability, and security.
This paper offers a thorough overview of several islanding detection
strategies, which are divided into two categories: classic approaches,
including local and remote approaches, and modern techniques, including
techniques based on signal processing and computational intelligence.
Additionally, each approach is compared and assessed based on several
factors, including implementation costs, non-detected zones, declining
power quality, and response times using the analytical hierarchy process
(AHP). The multi-criteria decision-making analysis shows that the overall
weight of passive methods (24.7%), active methods (7.8%), hybrid methods
(5.6%), remote methods (14.5%), signal processing-based methods (26.6%),
and computational intelligent-based methods (20.8%) based on the
comparison of all criteria together. Thus, it can be seen from the total weight
that hybrid approaches are the least suitable to be chosen, while signal
processing-based methods are the most appropriate islanding detection
method to be selected and implemented in power system with respect to the
aforementioned factors. Using Expert Choice software, the proposed
hierarchy model is studied and examined.
Enhancing of single-stage grid-connected photovoltaic system using fuzzy logi...IJECEIAES
ย
The power generated by photovoltaic (PV) systems is influenced by
environmental factors. This variability hampers the control and utilization of
solar cells' peak output. In this study, a single-stage grid-connected PV
system is designed to enhance power quality. Our approach employs fuzzy
logic in the direct power control (DPC) of a three-phase voltage source
inverter (VSI), enabling seamless integration of the PV connected to the
grid. Additionally, a fuzzy logic-based maximum power point tracking
(MPPT) controller is adopted, which outperforms traditional methods like
incremental conductance (INC) in enhancing solar cell efficiency and
minimizing the response time. Moreover, the inverter's real-time active and
reactive power is directly managed to achieve a unity power factor (UPF).
The system's performance is assessed through MATLAB/Simulink
implementation, showing marked improvement over conventional methods,
particularly in steady-state and varying weather conditions. For solar
irradiances of 500 and 1,000 W/m2
, the results show that the proposed
method reduces the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the injected current
to the grid by approximately 46% and 38% compared to conventional
methods, respectively. Furthermore, we compare the simulation results with
IEEE standards to evaluate the system's grid compatibility.
Enhancing photovoltaic system maximum power point tracking with fuzzy logic-b...IJECEIAES
ย
Photovoltaic systems have emerged as a promising energy resource that
caters to the future needs of society, owing to their renewable, inexhaustible,
and cost-free nature. The power output of these systems relies on solar cell
radiation and temperature. In order to mitigate the dependence on
atmospheric conditions and enhance power tracking, a conventional
approach has been improved by integrating various methods. To optimize
the generation of electricity from solar systems, the maximum power point
tracking (MPPT) technique is employed. To overcome limitations such as
steady-state voltage oscillations and improve transient response, two
traditional MPPT methods, namely fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and perturb
and observe (P&O), have been modified. This research paper aims to
simulate and validate the step size of the proposed modified P&O and FLC
techniques within the MPPT algorithm using MATLAB/Simulink for
efficient power tracking in photovoltaic systems.
Adaptive synchronous sliding control for a robot manipulator based on neural ...IJECEIAES
ย
Robot manipulators have become important equipment in production lines, medical fields, and transportation. Improving the quality of trajectory tracking for
robot hands is always an attractive topic in the research community. This is a
challenging problem because robot manipulators are complex nonlinear systems
and are often subject to fluctuations in loads and external disturbances. This
article proposes an adaptive synchronous sliding control scheme to improve trajectory tracking performance for a robot manipulator. The proposed controller
ensures that the positions of the joints track the desired trajectory, synchronize
the errors, and significantly reduces chattering. First, the synchronous tracking
errors and synchronous sliding surfaces are presented. Second, the synchronous
tracking error dynamics are determined. Third, a robust adaptive control law is
designed,the unknown components of the model are estimated online by the neural network, and the parameters of the switching elements are selected by fuzzy
logic. The built algorithm ensures that the tracking and approximation errors
are ultimately uniformly bounded (UUB). Finally, the effectiveness of the constructed algorithm is demonstrated through simulation and experimental results.
Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed controller is effective with small synchronous tracking errors, and the chattering phenomenon is
significantly reduced.

ย
A remote laboratory utilizing field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technologies enhances studentsโ learning experience anywhere and anytime in embedded system design. Existing remote laboratories prioritize hardware access and visual feedback for observing board behavior after programming, neglecting comprehensive debugging tools to resolve errors that require internal signal acquisition. This paper proposes a novel remote embeddedsystem design approach targeting FPGA technologies that are fully interactive via a web-based platform. Our solution provides FPGA board access and debugging capabilities beyond the visual feedback provided by existing remote laboratories. We implemented a lab module that allows users to seamlessly incorporate into their FPGA design. The module minimizes hardware resource utilization while enabling the acquisition of a large number of data samples from the signal during the experiments by adaptively compressing the signal prior to data transmission. The results demonstrate an average compression ratio of 2.90 across three benchmark signals, indicating efficient signal acquisition and effective debugging and analysis. This method allows users to acquire more data samples than conventional methods. The proposed lab allows students to remotely test and debug their designs, bridging the gap between theory and practice in embedded system design.

ย
Efficiently identifying and resolving code smells enhances software project quality. This paper presents a novel solution, utilizing automated machine learning (AutoML) techniques, to detect code smells and apply move method refactoring. By evaluating code metrics before and after refactoring, we assessed its impact on coupling, complexity, and cohesion. Key contributions of this research include a unique dataset for code smell classification and the development of models using AutoGluon for optimal performance. Furthermore, the study identifies the top 20 influential features in classifying feature envy, a well-known code smell, stemming from excessive reliance on external classes. We also explored how move method refactoring addresses feature envy, revealing reduced coupling and complexity, and improved cohesion, ultimately enhancing code quality. In summary, this research offers an empirical, data-driven approach, integrating AutoML and move method refactoring to optimize software project quality. Insights gained shed light on the benefits of refactoring on code quality and the significance of specific features in detecting feature envy. Future research can expand to explore additional refactoring techniques and a broader range of code metrics, advancing software engineering practices and standards.

ย
Rapidly and remotely monitoring and receiving the solar cell systems status parameters, solar irradiance, temperature, and humidity, are critical issues in enhancement their efficiency. Hence, in the present article an improved smart prototype of internet of things (IoT) technique based on embedded system through NodeMCU ESP8266 (ESP-12E) was carried out experimentally. Three different regions at Egypt; Luxor, Cairo, and El-Beheira cities were chosen to study their solar irradiance profile, temperature, and humidity by the proposed IoT system. The monitoring data of solar irradiance, temperature, and humidity were live visualized directly by Ubidots through hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) protocol. The measured solar power radiation in Luxor, Cairo, and El-Beheira ranged between 216-1000, 245-958, and 187-692 W/m 2 respectively during the solar day. The accuracy and rapidity of obtaining monitoring results using the proposed IoT system made it a strong candidate for application in monitoring solar cell systems. On the other hand, the obtained solar power radiation results of the three considered regions strongly candidate Luxor and Cairo as suitable places to build up a solar cells system station rather than El-Beheira.

ย
Over the past few years, the internet of things (IoT) has advanced to connect billions of smart devices to improve quality of life. However, anomalies or malicious intrusions pose several security loopholes, leading to performance degradation and threat to data security in IoT operations. Thereby, IoT security systems must keep an eye on and restrict unwanted events from occurring in the IoT network. Recently, various technical solutions based on machine learning (ML) models have been derived towards identifying and restricting unwanted events in IoT. However, most ML-based approaches are prone to miss-classification due to inappropriate feature selection. Additionally, most ML approaches applied to intrusion detection and prevention consider supervised learning, which requires a large amount of labeled data to be trained. Consequently, such complex datasets are impossible to source in a large network like IoT. To address this problem, this proposed study introduces an efficient learning mechanism to strengthen the IoT security aspects. The proposed algorithm incorporates supervised and unsupervised approaches to improve the learning models for intrusion detection and mitigation. Compared with the related works, the experimental outcome shows that the model performs well in a benchmark dataset. It accomplishes an improved detection accuracy of approximately 99.21%.

This research is developing an incubator system that integrates the internet of things and artificial intelligence to improve care for premature babies. The system workflow starts with sensors that collect data from the incubator. Then, the data is sent in real-time to the internet of things (IoT) broker eclipse mosquito using the message queue telemetry transport (MQTT) protocol version 5.0. After that, the data is stored in a database for analysis using the long short-term memory network (LSTM) method and displayed in a web application using an application programming interface (API) service. Furthermore, the experimental results produce as many as 2,880 rows of data stored in the database. The correlation coefficient between the target attribute and other attributes ranges from 0.23 to 0.48. Next, several experiments were conducted to evaluate the model-predicted value on the test data. The best results are obtained using a two-layer LSTM configuration model, each with 60 neurons and a lookback setting 6. This model produces an R 2 value of 0.934, with a root mean square error (RMSE) value of 0.015 and a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.008. In addition, the R 2 value was also evaluated for each attribute used as input, with a result of values between 0.590 and 0.845.

Honey is produced exclusively by honeybees and stingless bees which both are well adapted to tropical and subtropical regions such as Malaysia. Stingless bees are known for producing small amounts of honey and are known for having a unique flavor profile. Problem identified that many stingless bees collapsed due to weather, temperature and environment. It is critical to understand the relationship between the production of stingless bee honey and environmental conditions to improve honey production.

ย
The internet of things (IoT) is a revolutionary innovation in many aspects of our society including interactions, financial activity, and global security such as the military and battlefield internet. Due to the limited energy and processing capacity of network devices, security, energy consumption, compatibility, and device heterogeneity are the long-term IoT problems. As a result, energy and security are critical for data transmission across edge and IoT networks. Existing IoT interoperability techniques need more computation time, have unreliable authentication mechanisms that break easily, lose data easily, and have low confidentiality. In this paper, a key agreement protocol-based authentication mechanism for IoT devices is offered as a solution to this issue. This system makes use of information exchange, which must be secured to prevent access by unauthorized users. Using a compact contiki/cooja simulator, the performance and design of the suggested framework are validated. The simulation findings are evaluated based on detection of malicious nodes after 60 minutes of simulation. The suggested trust method, which is based on privacy access control, reduced packet loss ratio to 0.32%, consumed 0.39% power, and had the greatest average residual energy of 0.99 mJoules at 10 nodes.
Fuzzy linear programming with the intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy numbersIJECEIAES
ย
In real world applications, data are subject to ambiguity due to several factors; fuzzy sets and fuzzy numbers propose a great tool to model such ambiguity. In case of hesitation, the complement of a membership value in fuzzy numbers can be different from the non-membership value, in which case we can model using intuitionistic fuzzy numbers as they provide flexibility by defining both a membership and a non-membership functions. In this article, we consider the intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming problem with intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy numbers, which is a generalization of the previous polygonal fuzzy numbers found in the literature. We present a modification of the simplex method that can be used to solve any general intuitionistic fuzzy linear programming problem after approximating the problem by an intuitionistic polygonal fuzzy number with n edges. This method is given in a simple tableau formulation, and then applied on numerical examples for clarity.

ย
Prostate cancer is the predominant form of cancer observed in men worldwide. The application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as a guidance tool for conducting biopsies has been established as a reliable and well-established approach in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. The diagnostic performance of MRI-guided prostate cancer diagnosis exhibits significant heterogeneity due to the intricate and multi-step nature of the diagnostic pathway. The development of artificial intelligence (AI) models, specifically through the utilization of machine learning techniques such as deep learning, is assuming an increasingly significant role in the field of radiology. In the realm of prostate MRI, a considerable body of literature has been dedicated to the development of various AI algorithms. These algorithms have been specifically designed for tasks such as prostate segmentation, lesion identification, and classification. The overarching objective of these endeavors is to enhance diagnostic performance and foster greater agreement among different observers within MRI scans for the prostate. This review article aims to provide a concise overview of the application of AI in the field of radiology, with a specific focus on its utilization in prostate MRI.
Seizure stage detection of epileptic seizure using convolutional neural networksIJECEIAES
ย
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), seventy million individuals worldwide suffer from epilepsy, a neurological disorder. While electroencephalography (EEG) is crucial for diagnosing epilepsy and monitoring the brain activity of epilepsy patients, it requires a specialist to examine all EEG recordings to find epileptic behavior. This procedure needs an experienced doctor, and a precise epilepsy diagnosis is crucial for appropriate treatment. To identify epileptic seizures, this study employed a convolutional neural network (CNN) based on raw scalp EEG signals to discriminate between preictal, ictal, postictal, and interictal segments. The possibility of these characteristics is explored by examining how well timedomain signals work in the detection of epileptic signals using intracranial Freiburg Hospital (FH), scalp Children's Hospital Boston-Massachusetts Institute of Technology (CHB-MIT) databases, and Temple University Hospital (TUH) EEG. To test the viability of this approach, two types of experiments were carried out. Firstly, binary class classification (preictal, ictal, postictal each versus interictal) and four-class classification (interictal versus preictal versus ictal versus postictal). The average accuracy for stage detection using CHB-MIT database was 84.4%, while the Freiburg database's time-domain signals had an accuracy of 79.7% and the highest accuracy of 94.02% for classification in the TUH EEG database when comparing interictal stage to preictal stage.
Analysis of driving style using self-organizing maps to analyze driver behaviorIJECEIAES
ย
Modern life is strongly associated with the use of cars, but the increase in acceleration speeds and their maneuverability leads to a dangerous driving style for some drivers. In these conditions, the development of a method that allows you to track the behavior of the driver is relevant. The article provides an overview of existing methods and models for assessing the functioning of motor vehicles and driver behavior. Based on this, a combined algorithm for recognizing driving style is proposed. To do this, a set of input data was formed, including 20 descriptive features: About the environment, the driver's behavior and the characteristics of the functioning of the car, collected using OBD II. The generated data set is sent to the Kohonen network, where clustering is performed according to driving style and degree of danger. Getting the driving characteristics into a particular cluster allows you to switch to the private indicators of an individual driver and considering individual driving characteristics. The application of the method allows you to identify potentially dangerous driving styles that can prevent accidents.
Hyperspectral object classification using hybrid spectral-spatial fusion and ...IJECEIAES
ย
Because of its spectral-spatial and temporal resolution of greater areas, hyperspectral imaging (HSI) has found widespread application in the field of object classification. The HSI is typically used to accurately determine an object's physical characteristics as well as to locate related objects with appropriate spectral fingerprints. As a result, the HSI has been extensively applied to object identification in several fields, including surveillance, agricultural monitoring, environmental research, and precision agriculture. However, because of their enormous size, objects require a lot of time to classify; for this reason, both spectral and spatial feature fusion have been completed. The existing classification strategy leads to increased misclassification, and the feature fusion method is unable to preserve semantic object inherent features; This study addresses the research difficulties by introducing a hybrid spectral-spatial fusion (HSSF) technique to minimize feature size while maintaining object intrinsic qualities; Lastly, a soft-margins kernel is proposed for multi-layer deep support vector machine (MLDSVM) to reduce misclassification. The standard Indian pines dataset is used for the experiment, and the outcome demonstrates that the HSSF-MLDSVM model performs substantially better in terms of accuracy and Kappa coefficient.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
ย
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.

In the future, more and more electric vehicle (EV) batteries are connected to
the direct current (DC) microgrid. Depending on the battery state of charge,
the battery voltage can be higher or lower than the DC microgrid voltage. A
converter that is aimed to fulfil such function must be capable of working in
both charging and discharging regardless the voltage level of the battery and
DC microgrid. Battery performance degradation due to ripple current
entering the battery is also a concern. In this paper, a converter that can
minimize ripple current that entering battery and operate in two power-flow
directions regardless of battery and DC microgrid voltage level is presented.
A current control method for this kind of converter was proposed.
Experiment on a prototype was conducted to prove the proposed converter

1. INTRODUCTION
Utilization of renewable energy to fill energy demand give rise to many distributed generators.
According to conventional way of electric power transmission and distribution, these distributed generators
must be connected first to the main grid before their produced outputs are able to be transmitted and
distributed to various users. The problem with this approach is a large investment is required to connect these
distributed generators to the main grid. One way to take advantage of these distributed generators, without
having to integrate them to the main grid, is to build a microgrids near these distributed generators and
connect them to this microgrid. Loads around the microgrid can be supplied by distributed generators without
having to rely on the main grid to distribute the generated electricity. Since most of the electricity generated
by renewable energy sources is in the form of direct current, direct current (DC) microgrids are a suitable
choice for delivering electricity from these distributed generators to the local loads. Compared to an
alternating current (AC) grid, a DC grid has several advantages such as the absence of problems with reactive
power and synchronization [1]โ[3].
Figure 1 shows a DC microgrid system. Various renewable energy sources, energy storage system,
and loads is connected to the DC microgrid. The energy storage systems will absorb excess electricity
generated by renewable energy sources and will release it back to the DC microgrid when needed. Energy
storage systems can be in the form of batteries or electric vehicle (EV) batteries [4], [5].
One issue of EV batteries is their lifetime [6], [7]. Ripple current is one factor that fade battery
capacity and increase its impedance. Variation of capacity and impedance of each cell can cause voltage
difference between cells. Voltage difference between cells can cause heat problem because of possibility
differential current flows from one cell to other cell [8]. Ripple currents occur from switching of power

electronics converter connected to the battery. Hence, reducing ripple current entering a battery is urgent.
One way to reduce the ripple current is to employ multiphases topology of a converter [9], [10].
Fluctuation of DC microgrid voltage and ever-changing EV batteryโs state of charge (SoC) make it
possible for the battery voltage to be higher or lower than the DC microgrid voltage. This phenomenon,
which is called as โoverlappingโ in some literature [11], implies that DC-DC power converter plays an
important role in ensuring energy transfer between EV batteries and DC microgrid happens [12]. Various
converter topology for aiding in bidirectional energy transfer between battery and DC microgrid has been
reviewed in [13] but none of them concerned about overlapping phenomenon. Converter that can facilitate
power exchange between EV battery and DC microgrid under possibilities of overlapping condition has been
proposed in [11], [14]โ[16] but this converter still doesnโt address the current ripple problem. The converter
proposed by [17]โ[19] can work in both direction and when either the battery voltage is higher or lower than
DC microgrid voltage, but have non-continuous current so the ripple current is still large.
In this paper, the proposed converter, and its control strategy for interfacing battery between DC
microgrid and battery is explained. The proposed converter can direct power flows between battery and DC
microgrid whether it is for charging or discharging the battery, can work regardless of the battery voltage
level relative to the DC microgrid voltage and also has minimization mechanism for the ripple current that
flows through battery so the battery performance will not be degraded. This paper is organized as follow:
section 1 introduces about current trends in renewable energy and microgrid; section 2 describes the
proposed converter; section 3 explains the modelling of the proposed converter and issue regarding the
control system of the proposed converter; section 4 describes the current controller of the proposed converter;
section 5 presents the experimental results from a prototype to demonstrate the proposed converter
capabilities; and section 6 concludes this paper.

2. THE PROPOSED CONVERTER
The proposed converter is called multiphases DC-DC boost-buck converter. The proposed converter
objective is limited to regulate the power flow between a battery and a DC microgrid and at the same time
minimize ripple current entering the battery. The derivation of the proposed converter will be presented to
understand how the converter came into being. Knowledge of derivation of the proposed converter also helps
in understanding how this converter is capable to deliver its objective. Figure 2 shows 2 kinds of boost-buck

where ๐ฃ๐(๐ก), ๐(๐ก), ๐(๐ก) and ๐ฃ๐(๐ก) is battery voltage, A-part duty cycle, B-part duty cycle, and DC microgrid
voltage, respectively. Assuming the direction of current is as shown in Figure 2(a), A-part and
B-part can be regarded as a boost and a buck converter. It can be seen that the DC microgrid voltage can be
higher or lower than the battery voltage. It should be noted that the switching frequencies of A-part and

B-part can be different to optimize the converter efficiency. Moreover, the duty cycles of the A-part and
B-part sides can also be different.
Cascaded boost-buck converter in Figure 2(a) has solved bidirectional energy transfer problem but
still does not address ripple current entering the battery. To minimize the battery and DC microgrid ripple
current, the converter can be modified into the multiphase converter as shown in Figure 2(b) [9]. The phase
numbers of A-part and B-part donโt need to be the same. This leaves optimization room if one wish to
improve the efficiency of the converter. If the duty cycle of A-part is fixed, that is ๐(๐ก) is kept at a constant
value that results in zero ripple, then the B-part is the only one left with authority to control DC microgrid
current so its duty cycle must be let to vary. On the other hand, if minimum DC microgrid ripple current is
desired then B-part duty cycle is fixed (which means ๐(๐ก) is now kept constant instead of ๐(๐ก)) at a certain
value that results in zero ripple current. This leaves A-part to control the battery current by letting its duty
cycle ๐(๐ก) to vary.
In this paper application, it is desirable to have minimum battery ripple current, so the duty cycle of
A-part is kept constant at a certain value that results in zero ripple and its number of phases is more than one.
This leaves The DC microgrid current to be controlled by B-partโs duty cycle. Since the DC microgrid ripple
current is not required to be low, a single-phase converter can assume a place in B-part. For this paper
purpose, it is found that A-part can deliver its objective by using three phases. This leads to 1/3 or 2/3 to be
duty cycle value that will give minimum battery ripple current. Figures 3(a) and 3(b) shows modelling of the
proposed boost-buck converter. Figure 3(a) shows the proposed multiphase boost-buck converter. A-partโs
task is to minimize battery ripple current, so it consists of 3 phase (๐ = 3) and has constant duty cycle of
๐ถฬ = 1/3. This is shown in Figure 4 where each phase and the battery current are plotted. It can be seen that
the battery current has near to zero ripple current. B-partโs task is to control the DC microgrid current and it
consist of one phase (n=1) with varying duty cycle ๐(๐ก). To further optimize the proposed converter in terms
of weight and size, one can use the stator winding of EV traction motor as filter inductor. The EV traction
motor type can be either synchronous, induction, or switch reluctance. Doing so will turn the proposed
converter into โintegrated chargerโ [20], [21].

3. MODELLING OF THE PROPOSED CONVERTER
Before designing the control for the proposed converter, a model of the proposed converter must be
derived first. Some properties of the proposed converter can be exploited to simplify the model. A-part can
be regarded as an LC filter by fact that each leg of the A-part is switched in a manner such that each legโs
duty cycle value is identical and is shifted by identical phase angle. The resulting simplification of the
proposed converter is shown in Figure 3(b). The relationship between parameter in Figures 3(a) and 3(b) is

Disturbance either from ๐
๐(๐ ), ๐ท(๐ ), or ๐ธ(๐ ) will have the similar behavior because the denominator of (10),
(11), and (12) is same. From (10), (11), and (12), relationship between ๐ผ๐ต(๐ ), ๐
๐(๐ ), ๐ท(๐ ), and ๐ธ(๐ ) can be
derived and is given by (13):
๐ผ๐ต(๐ ) = ๐บ๐๐(๐ )๐ท(๐ ) + ๐บ๐๐(๐ )๐
๐(๐ ) + ๐บ๐๐(๐ )๐ธ(๐ ) (13)
Consider the control-to-current transfer function or ๐บ๐๐(๐ ) in (10). The denominator of ๐บ๐๐(๐ ) is
responsible for the occurrence of resonance while the numerator of ๐บ๐๐(๐ ) is responsible for the occurrence
of anti-resonance. Frequency of resonance and anti-resonance of ๐บ๐๐(๐ ) depends on component and
linearization point used to derived ๐บ๐๐(๐ ). Figure 5 shows Bode plot of ๐บ๐๐(๐ ) at various linearization point.
The component parameter used to generate Figure 5 is shown in Table 1. Unless stated in the figure itself, the
battery voltage, the DC microgrid voltage, and the B-part duty cycle is linearized at 30 V, 30 V, and 2/3 by
default. It can be seen from each of Figures 5(a), 5(b), and 5(c) that the resonance increases when the
linearization point diverges from aforementioned value. Such resonance can cause instability due to
potentially reduced gain margin. Although Figure 5 only shows frequency response of ๐บ๐๐(๐ ), it also
represents the frequency response of other transfer function such as ๐บ๐๐(๐ ) an ๐บ๐๐(๐ ) d since the denominator
of all those three transfer functions is identical.

Passive element such as resistor can be used to reduce such resonance [23]. Figure 6 shows the
possibility of installing damping resistor on the equivalent model of the proposed converter and its
corresponding linearized system block diagram is shown in Figure 7. One of the drawbacks of this method is
that more losses is generated due to damping resistor presence. To stabilize the proposed converter without
sacrifice the power efficiency, virtual resistor or active damping concept is introduced [24], [25]. The idea of
virtual resistor is to mimic physical resistor effect through mathematical manipulation of the converter model
so the need to install physical resistor as resonance damper is eliminated. In the case of the proposed
converter, only one of damping resistor shown in Figure 6 is needed to be mimicked.
Figure 6. Possibilities of damping resistor locations
Virtual resistor is implemented by rearranging block diagram in Figure 7 into block diagram in
Figure 8. The way virtual resistor is implemented is by sensing the required signal and multiply it by an
algorithm and then the resulting product is summed with ๐ทโ(๐ ). ๐ทโ(๐ ) itself will be the same as ๐ท(๐ ) if the
virtual resistor is not implemented. Algorithm to mimic each damping resistor and their feedback
requirements is summarize in Table 2. All algorithm for mimicking the damping resistor is derived under the
assumption that parasitic components have negligible effect on the dynamics of the proposed converter
system.

It is necessary to control ๐๐ต(๐ก) (and in turn ๐ผ๐ต(๐ )) to control the power flow of the proposed
converter. This means a sensor is required to sense ๐๐ต(๐ก). To fully make use of this sensor, virtual ๐1 is
selected to damp the peak resonance magnitude because the implementation of virtual ๐1 requires the same
sensor that have already been used for current control of ๐๐ต(๐ก). Another advantage of mimicking ๐1 damping
resistor instead of other damping resistor is that the numerator of virtual ๐1 algorithm (that is ๐(๐ ), shown in
Table 2 doesnโt contain ๐ท
ฬ which means the damping effect of virtual ๐1 wonโt be affected by whatever value
of ๐ท
ฬ . Control to current transfer function of the proposed converter which include the effect of virtual ๐1,
๐บ๐๐,๐1(๐ ), can be obtained by replacing ๐ท(๐ ) in (13) with ๐ทโ(๐ ) + ๐(๐ )๐ผ๐ต(๐ ) and solving for ๐ผ๐ต(๐ ) ๐ทโ(๐ )

Similarity between denominator of (14), (15) and (16) implies virtual ๐1 also helps in minimizing
disturbance effect on the proposed converter. Figure 9 shows root locus of ๐บ๐๐,๐1(๐ ) due to variation of ๐1.
There are two dominant poles and one insignificant pole. To fully stabilize ๐บ๐๐,๐1(๐ ), these dominant poles
must be placed as far as possible from imaginary axis. The farthest dominant pole is obtained ๐1 = 3.39ฮฉ and
is marked by red cross on Figure 9. The effect of virtual ๐1 on the proposed converter is shown Figure 10.

4. DESIGN OF THE CURRENT CONTROLLER
The current controller must be capable of tracking the current reference ๐ผ๐ต
โ(๐ ) and reject any
disturbances presents. In this paper, a simple proportional-integral (PI) current controller is used.
Compensator for implementation of PI current controller is denoted by ๐บ๐(๐ ) and is given by (17):
๐บ๐(๐ ) = ๐๐ + (๐๐ ๐
โ ) (17)
where ๐๐ and ๐๐ are proportional and integral constant. ๐บ๐(๐ ) itself will be tuned based on ๐บ๐๐,๐1(๐ ) as its
plant with ๐1 = 3.39 ฮฉ. Figure 11 shows the current control system of the proposed converter. Here the
output of the ๐บ๐(๐ ) compensator will be summed with output of virtual resistor algorithm. This means the
duty cycle signal entering the B-partโs switch is produced by the sum between compensator output and
virtual resistor algorithm.
Figure 11. Control system and implementation of virtual resistor
The specification of current controller will be based on gain cross over frequency and phase margin.
The gain cross over frequency of the open loop transfer function should be lower than resonance and anti-
resonance frequency. Based on Figure 5(a), the resonance and anti-resonance frequency is 267 Hz and
206 Hz therefore the required gain crossover frequency will be 100 Hz. If higher gain crossover frequency is
desired, the ๐ถ๐ด capacitor should be smaller in value. The phase margin of the open loop transfer function is
required to be greater than 60ยฐ. Aside from frequency domain requirements, it is also desired to have as low
as possible current overshoot in the event of transient. Before tuning of compensator is conducted, operating
points and components value of the proposed converter must be determined first. In this paper, the battery
voltage, the DC microgrid voltage, and B-part duty cycle is linearized at 30 V, 30 V, and 2/3. The
components value used for the purpose of experiment and control design is shown in Table 1. ๐บ๐(๐ ) is tuned
such that gain crossover frequency of 100 Hz and phase margin of at least 60 ยฐ is achieved for ๐บ๐(๐ )๐บ๐๐,๐1(๐ )
transfer function. With the help of MATLAB, ๐๐ and ๐๐ is found to be 0.05455 and 53.88449. The Bode plot
of both compensated and uncompensated ๐บ๐(๐ )๐บ๐๐,๐1(๐ ) is shown in Figure 12. Figure 13 shows the Bode
plot of closed loop system with and without virtual resistor presence. Figures 13(a), 13(b), and 13(c) shows
Bode plot of ๐ผ๐ต
โ(๐ ) to ๐ผ๐ต(๐ ), ๐ธ(๐ ) to ๐ผ๐ต(๐ ), and ๐
๐(๐ ) to ๐ผ๐ต(๐ ) transfer function. All plot in Figure 13 shows
that virtual resistor presence reduces resonance.

At first, the proposed converter is simulated. Compensator used in the simulation is the same as has
been derived in previous paragraph. To see reference tracking capabilities of the designed current controller,
the proposed converter and its controller is simulated under a changing reference current. The reference
current changes its value from 2 A to -2 A representing discharging and charging of the battery connected to
this converter. Figure 14 shows simulation result of current control of the proposed converter with a changing
reference current. Figure 14(a) shows simulation result if virtual ๐1is installed and has value of ๐1 = 3.39 ฮฉ.
Figure 14(b) shows the simulation result if virtual ๐1 is not installed or ๐1 = 0. Higher overshoot observed in
Figure 14(b) compared to Figure 14(a) shows that the virtual ๐1 has effects on stability of the proposed
converter. Both Figures 14(a) and 14(b) shows the simulated proposed converter can do bidirectional energy
transfer. To see disturbance rejection capabilities of the proposed converter, the proposed converter and its
controller is simulated under a changing battery and DC microgrid voltage.

5. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS OF THE PROPOSED CONVERTER
Experiment is conducted to see reference tracking and disturbance rejection capabilities of designed
control system of the proposed converter. A prototype of the proposed converter used for experimental
purpose has been manufactured. The components of the prototype are shown in Table 1. On both side of the
prototype, a DC power supply paralleled with a 10 ฮฉ load resistor is used to simulate both battery and DC
microgrid. Nominal voltage of both battery and DC microgrid is set to be 30 V. The microcontroller used in
this experiment for current control is TMS320F28377D. Reference current ๐๐ต
โ (๐ก) is generated by the
microcontroller. Switching frequency of A-part and B-part of the proposed converter is 13.33 kHz and
6.66 kHz. The compensator used in the experiment has the same form as (17) where ๐๐ = 0.05455 and
๐๐ = 53.88449. The virtual resistor installed to the prototype is virtual ๐1 and has value of ๐1 = 3.39 ฮฉ.
Figure 16 shows the experimental result for the reference tracking capabilities. The current reference
alternate between 2 A and -2 A and is shown by CH2 (cyan). The actual current is shown by CH3 (red).
Ampere/div is 1 A and Time/div is 10 ms/div. Figure 16(a) shows experimental result when virtual resistor is
installed, and Figure 16(b) shows experimental result when virtual resistor is not installed. Both the battery
and DC microgrid is kept at 30 V. +2 A reference current simulates when the battery is discharging and -2 A
reference current simulates when the battery is charging. From Figure 16, actual current or ๐๐ต(๐ก) tracks its
reference whether the the reference is +2 A or -2 A regardless virtual resistor is installed or not but the one
with virtual resistor installed has lower overshoot. Besides reference tracking, Figure 16 also shows
bidirectional transfer capabilities of the prototype of the proposed converter.
Figure 17 shows the experimental result for disturbance rejection capabilities. The reference current
is +2 A and the DC microgrid is given a disturbance. Ampere/div is 1 A/div, Volt/div is 10 V/div, and
Time/div is 100 ms/div. The current reference of constant value is shown by CH2 (cyan). The actual current
is shown by CH3 (red). The DC microgrid voltage is shown by CH4 (green). While the battery voltage is
kept constant at 30 V, the DC microgrid voltage (green line, CH4) is given -10 V disturbance relative to its
nominal voltage value. From Figure 17, the actual current is still tracking its reference despite disturbance
presence. Although current control for the proposed converter in this paper has been designed using a simple
PI controller, it is possible to implement a more sophisticated method such as fuzzy controller [26], [27].

6. CONCLUSION
The proposed converter and its current control strategy for charging and discharging of a battery
connected to a DC microgrid with minimized battery ripple current has been presented. How the battery
ripple current is minimized has been explained through simulation results. How to use a virtual resistor to
damp a transient oscillation has been described. A prototype has been constructed and experiment has been
carried out to see the current control capabilities of the proposed converter. Experimental results have shown
the effectiveness of the current controller for the proposed converter. Effectiveness of virtual resistor in
damping arising resonance in the proposed converter was also shown in the experiment.
