This paper proposes a dynamic modeling and control strategy for a grid connected hybrid wind and photovoltaic (PV) energy system inter-connected to electrical grid through power electronic interface. A gearless permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is used to capture the maximum wind energy. The PV and wind systems are connected dc-side of the voltage source inverter through a boost converter individually and maintain a fixed dc output at dc link. A proper control scheme is required to operate power converters to match up the grid connection requirements. This study considered the performance of modeled hybrid system under different case scenarios. All simulation models are developed using MATLAB/Simulink.

Based on exhaustive review of the state of the art of the electric generators fitted to Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS), this study is focused on an innovative machine that is a Variable Reluctance Generator (VRG). Indeed, its simple and rugged structure (low cost), its high torque at low speed (gearless), its fault-tolerance (lowest maintenance), allow it to be a potential candidate for a small wind power application at variable wind
speed. For better accuracy, a finite element model of a studied doubly salient VRG is developed using open source software FEMM to identify the electromagnetic characteristics such as linkage flux, torque or inductance versus rotor position and stator excitation. The obtained data are then transferred into look-up tables of MATLAB/Simulink to perform various simulations. Performance of the proposed wind power system is analyzed for several parameters and results are discussed.

Impact of compressed air energy storage system into diesel power plant with w...IJECEIAES
The wind energy plays an important role in power system because of its renewable, clean and free energy. However, the penetration of wind power (WP) into the power grid system (PGS) requires an efficient energy storage systems (ESS). compressed air energy storage (CAES) system is one of the most ESS technologies which can alleviate the intermittent nature of the renewable energy sources (RES). Nyala city power plant in Sudan has been chosen as a case study because the power supply by the existing power plant is expensive due to high costs for fuel transport and the reliability of power supply is low due to uncertain fuel provision. This paper presents a formulation of security-constrained unit commitment (SCUC) of diesel power plant (DPP) with the integration of CAES and PW. The optimization problem is modeled and coded in MATLAB which solved with solver GORUBI 8.0. The results show that the proposed model is suitable for integration of renewable energy sources (RES) into PGS with ESS and helpful in power system operation management.
Large-scale grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) station are increasing rapidly. However, this large penetration of PV system creates frequency fluctuation in the grid due to the intermittency of solar irradiance. Therefore, in this paper, a robust droop control mechanism of the battery energy storage system (BESS) is developed in order to damp the frequency fluctuation of the multi-machine grid system due to variable active power injected from the PV panel. The proposed droop control strategy incorporates frequency error signal and dead-band for effective minimization of frequency fluctuation. The BESS system is used to consume/inject an effective amount of active power based upon the frequency oscillation of the grid system. The simulation analysis is carried out using PSCAD/EMTDC software to prove the effectiveness of the proposed droop control-based BESS system. The simulation result implies that the proposed scheme can efficiently curtail the frequency oscillation.

4.power quality improvement in dg system using shunt active filterEditorJST
Injection of power generated by the wind turbine system into an electric grid mainly effects the power quality. The performance of this wind turbine and its power quality is determined on the basis of its measurement of power ratings as per IEEE standards. The influence of the wind turbine in the grid system concerning the power quality measurements are the active power, reactive power, variation of voltage, flicker, harmonics, and electrical behavior of switching operation. To mitigate the power quality problems this paper proposes the shunt compensator techniques. Here, the proposed system is verified experimentally using both STATCOM and TSC compensators. This control schemes for grid connected wind energy system is simulated using Matlab/Simulink.
A grid connected hybrid generation system (HGS) consisting of wind energy conversion System (WECS)/Photo voltaic (PV) System/solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is designed and simulated by using Matlab/Simulink. SOFC is the replacement of battery, attached to produce the clean energy when these renewable energy sources are unable to produce required amount of electric power. A controller is used to regulate the flow of H2 through the valveto the SOFC and the rest amount of H2 is stored in storage tank. Also, an operational control strategy (OCS) is developed to utilize maximum amount of power of PV to the required load and rest amount of power is coming from wind to fulfill the load demand. Hence, the electrolyzer is supplied by the wind power to convert the water in to H2 and oxygen. Also the power quality factor (PQF) analysis is exercised to measure the quality of power transmission.

Kosovo has limited renewable energy resources and its power generation sector is based on fossil fuels. Such a situation emphasizes the importance of active research and efficient use of renewable energy potential. According to the analysis of meteorological data for Kosovo, it can be concluded that among the most attractive potential wind power sites are the locations known as Kitka (42° 29' 41" N and 21° 36' 45" E) and Koznica (42° 39′ 32″ N, 21° 22′30″E). The two terrains in which the analysis was carried out are mountain areas, with altitudes of 1142 m (Kitka) and 1230 m (Koznica). the same measuring height, about 84 m above the ground, is obtained for these average wind speeds: Kitka 6,667 m/s and Koznica 6,16 m/s. Since the difference in wind speed is quite large versus a difference in altitude that is not being very large, analyses are made regarding the terrain characteristics including the terrain relief features. In this paper it will be studied how much the roughness of the terrain influences the output energy. Also, that the assumption to be taken the same as to how much they will affect the annual energy produced.

Power system operation considering detailed modelling of the natural gas supp...IJECEIAES
The energy transition from fossil-fuel generators to renewable energies represents a paramount challenge. This is mainly due to the uncertainty and unpredictability associated with renewable resources. A greater flexibility is requested for power system operation to fulfill demand requirements considering security and economic restrictions. In particular, the use of gas-fired generators has increased to enhance system flexibility in response to the integration of renewable energy sources. This paper provides a comprehensive formulation for modeling a natural gas supply network to provide gas for thermal generators, considering the use of wind power sources for the operation of the electrical system over a 24-hour period. The results indicate the requirements of gas with different wind power level of integration. The model is evaluated on a network of 20 NG nodes and on a 24-bus IEEE RTS system with various operative settings during a 24-hour period.
Environmental factors such as air pollution and increase in global warming by using polluting fuels are the most important reasons of using renewable and clean energy that runs in global community. Wind energy is one of the most suitable and widely used kind of renewable energy which had been in consideration so well. This paper introduces an electric power generation
system of wind based on Y-source and improved Y-source inverter to deliver optimal electrical power to the network. This new converter is from impedance source converters family. This presented converter has more degrees of freedom to adjust voltage gain and modulation. Also, by limiting the range of simultaneous control (shooting through) while it maintains the
highest power of maximizer, it can operate in higher modulation range. This causes the reduce of stress in switching and thus it will improve the quality of output. Recommended system had been simulated in MATLAB/Simulink and shown results indicate accurate functionality.

Power system operation considering detailed modelling of the natural gas supp...IJECEIAES
The energy transition from fossil-fuel generators to renewable energies represents a paramount challenge. This is mainly due to the uncertainty and unpredictability associated with renewable resources. A greater flexibility is requested for power system operation to fulfill demand requirements considering security and economic restrictions. In particular, the use of gas-fired generators has increased to enhance system flexibility in response to the integration of renewable energy sources. This paper provides a comprehensive formulation for modeling a natural gas supply network to provide gas for thermal generators, considering the use of wind power sources for the operation of the electrical system over a 24-hour period. The results indicate the requirements of gas with different wind power level of integration. The model is evaluated on a network of 20 NG nodes and on a 24-bus IEEE RTS system with various operative settings during a 24-hour period.
Environmental factors such as air pollution and increase in global warming by using polluting fuels are the most important reasons of using renewable and clean energy that runs in global community. Wind energy is one of the most suitable and widely used kind of renewable energy which had been in consideration so well. This paper introduces an electric power generation
system of wind based on Y-source and improved Y-source inverter to deliver optimal electrical power to the network. This new converter is from impedance source converters family. This presented converter has more degrees of freedom to adjust voltage gain and modulation. Also, by limiting the range of simultaneous control (shooting through) while it maintains the
highest power of maximizer, it can operate in higher modulation range. This causes the reduce of stress in switching and thus it will improve the quality of output. Recommended system had been simulated in MATLAB/Simulink and shown results indicate accurate functionality.
Incremental Conductance MPPT Algorithm for PV System Implemented Using DC-DC ...IJERA Editor
The two basic topologies of switch mode DC-DC converters (Buck and Boost) are analyzed with a view of their use in PV (photovoltaic) systems, as the photovoltaic generator exhibits non-linear characteristics due to the change in environmental condition and load variation. As the efficiency of PV panels is low it becomes mandatory to extract maximum power from the PV panel at a given period of time. Several MPPT algorithms with different types of converters are being proposed for extracting maximum power from the PV panel. It is found that the nature of load plays an important role in the choice of topology. This paper investigates the implementation issues of Incremental Conductance method with Buck and Boost Converters. Mathematical analysis and desirable steady-state operating point of the converters are derived to give satisfactory maximum power point tracking operation.

The Renewable energy is important part of power generation system due to diminution of fossils fuel. Energy production from photovoltaic (PV) is widely accepted as it is clean, available in abundance, & free of cost. This paper deals with modeling of PV array including the effects of temperature and irradiation. The DC-DC converter is used for boosting low voltage of the PV array to high DC voltage. Since the efficiency of a PV array is around 13% which is low, it is desirable to operate the module at the peak power point to improve the utilization of the PV array. A maximum power point tracker (MPPT) is used for extracting the maximum power from the solar PV array and transferring that power to the load. To track maximum power point (MPP) Perturb & Observe (P & O) algorithm is used which periodically perturbs the array voltage or current and compare PV output power with that of previous perturbation cycle which controls duty cycle of DC-DC converter. The entire system is simulated in MATLAB /SIMULINK and simulation results are presented.

Abstract
This paper deals with the construction of a mathematical model of a wind turbine, which is one of the sources in the Grid-Off
system.
Keywords: mathematical model, wind turbine, Grid-Off system, electric generator, wind conditions.
1 Introduction
As one of the power sources of the Grid-Off system is a wind turbine. It is advantageous to work with a
mathematical model for the need of experimental research. In Fig. 1 is a schematic connection of a wind turbine
to a container, which is a Grid-Off system. [1-4]
This paper presents the modeling and simulation of wind energy Conversion System using the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). The objectives are: to extract the maximum power of the wind speed by controlling the electromagnetic torque of the PMSG, to maintain constant the DC-link voltage despite the wind speed variations and to attain the unity power factor. In order to ensure a regulation with high performance and a good robustness against the internal and the external disturbances, a new control strategy called the Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) is used. Therefore, the Analysis and simulation of the ADRC and PI controllers are developed with MATLAB/Simulink software. The performance of these controllers is compared in term of references tracking, robustness and grid faults.

PERFORMANCE OF MVDC AND MVAC OFFSHORE WIND FARM DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMJournal For Research
Offshore wind farms are becoming more popular because of advantages such as availability of higher and uniform wind speeds, availability of the large sea area and proximity to major load centers. Two types of wind turbine systems for wind power generation exist. Mainly DFIG (30% speed variation) and PMSG (100 % speed variation) generators are used in wind farms. To evaluate any power system network, load flow analysis is necessary. But traditional load flow methods such as the GS and NR-techniques fail to meet the requirements in both performance and robustness aspects of radial connected wind farm distribution systems. Therefore in this work, the direct approach algorithm is used for wind farms in which generators are modelled as PQ bus and transmission line modelled using À model in the algorithm. Basically two types of configuration are possible Medium Voltage AC (MVAC) and Medium Voltage DC (MVDC) offshore WFDS. Due to lower losses in MVDC offshore WFDS, a today lot of research is going on to design MVDC offshore WFDS. The results are presented for both MVAC and MVDC based offshore wind farm distribution system using MATLAB programming. Finally, a performance comparison has been made between the MVAC and MVDC based offshore Wind Farm Distribution System (WFDS).

This paper presented the transient and operational behavior of a parallel Combination of DC Shunt Motor and IM fed by a photovoltaic generator at different solar irradiance levels. The maximum power point of current/voltage (I/V) characteristic of the PV generator was achieved for different solar intensities, by utilizing an open circuit voltage method. The nonlinear operational behavior of (I/V) characteristics of the PV generator at various solar intensities and the magnetization curve of the ferromagnetic material of the DC shunt motor were both modeled by high order polynomial mathematical expressions. The study investigated the response of the system at different solar irradiance levels and changing the torque loads for both motors and then following step change in solar intensity levels with fixed loading torques for both motors. All numerical simulations were executed using MATLAB software.

Design and Development of Power Electronic Controller for Grid-connected PV A...IJAPEJOURNAL
Design and simulation of a simple power electronic interface for grid-connected PV array has been proposed using boost converter and line-commutated inverter with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller. The output of PV array varies with irradiation, and hence the duty cycle of the PI controller is adjusted automatically to supply a constant DC voltage to the inverter circuit, the output of which is directly connected to the grid. The MPPT controller extracts maximum power from the solar array and feeds it to the single-phase utility grid. The proposed scheme has been modeled in the MATLAB 7.1 software and the complete system has been simulated for open loop and closed loop configurations. The active power fed to the grid is taken for different firing angles in open loop mode and the firing angle for maximum power has been determined. This is compared with the firing angle obtained from the closed loop mode and found that both results agree with each other.

The most efficient and connected alternative for increasing the use of local renewable energy sources is a hybrid microgrid, these systems face additional challenges due to the integration of power electronics, energy storage technologies and traditional power plants. The hybrid alternating currentdirect current (AC-DC) microgrid that is the subject of this research uses a primary-droop control system to regulate state variables and auxiliary services, thus, it is composed of batteries, solar panels and a miniature wind turbine (PDC) and controls how each energy source in a microgrid contributes to the final product. To achieve the given objectives, this paper will create appropriate models for each part of the microgrid design and define, among them, the energy storage batteries and power electronic converters required for each level of each of these systems. Finally, the dynamic nature of the system will be critically evaluated and characterized, to distribute the load and reduce imbalances, modify the primary drop of the resulting microgrid using MATLAB simulation.
The performance of PV panel is very much dependent on the amount of sun light as well as the temperature of the surrounding environment which normally hard to be predicted. The use of PV emulator in the investigation of solar inverter especially at a lab scale platform helps to mitigate the inconsistency factors due to this uncontrollable variation. This work discussed on the design and development of a PV emulator for the grid-connected quasi-Z-source inverter which has different topology and control method compared to the conventional voltage source inverter. The I-V characteristics of the PV panel is modelled from the commercially available product and through circuit analysis the relation between capacitor voltage control and the PV terminal voltage is established, thus realizing the MPPT operation. Results from both simulation and experimental verification demonstrated that the PV emulator successfully able to produce power for the inverter according to the requirement.

This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

I. INTRODUCTION
The ever-increasing demand for nonrenewable energy sources like coal, natural gas and oil is driving society towards the research and development of renewable energy sources. Many such energy sources like wind energy and Photovoltaic (PV) are now well developed, cost effective and are being widely used. These energy sources are preferred for being environmental-friendly. Renewable energy based distributed generators (DGs) play a dominant role in electricity production, with the increase in the global warming. Distributed generation based on renewable energy sources will give significant momentum in near future. The integration of these renewable energy sources to form a Hybrid system consist of two or more renewable or nonrenewable energy sources [1] [2], is an excellent option for distributed energy production. The Power ranges of renewable energy generation is small compared to nonrenewable energy generation, these renewable energy generation technology is located near the load or connected to the utility grid [2].
The hybrid system consist of two renewable sources which are wind and solar energy are used as an input sources. A Wind Turbine (WT) converts mechanical energy in to electrical energy and it produces ac output voltage is converted to dc output by using rectifier. A PV cell converts light energy in to electrical energy and it produces dc output voltage. In order to maintain constant dc- link voltage, to regulate outputs from the wind and solar systems by using dc-dc boost converter [6]. The Grid-connected hybrid wind and PV system has more reliability to deliver continuous power to the load, if any shortage from the renewable energy sources the loads are directly connected to the grid. A voltage source inverter (VSI) is controlled by using d-q based current control method[1] to control the operation of the grid connected hybrid system.
II. PROPOSED SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
Fig.1 Architecture of the Proposed System The Architecture of the proposed hybrid system is shown in figure 1. The input sources of the hybrid system are wind and solar energy. A dc-dc boost converter [6] is used to integrate these renewable energy sources at dc link. The constant dc link voltage is given as the input of the inverter, to get desired ac output voltage by using d-q based current control method. The output of the inverter (230V, 50Hz) is fed to the grid through RL filter it gives ripple free voltage.

III. MODELING OF HYBRID SYSTEM
A. Wind Turbine Modeling
The wind turbine captures the wind’s kinetic energy in a rotor consisting of two or more blades mechanically coupled to an electrical generator. Aerodynamic power available in the wind can be calculated as [3]: 푃푤=퐶푝 휌퐴 2 푉푤 3 (1) Where Pw is output of the wind turbine [W], ρ is the air density [kg/m3], A is the wind turbine swept area [m2], Vw is the wind speed [m/s], and Cp is the coefficient of performance. The coefficient of performance (Cp) is depends on the tip speed ratio (λ) and blade pitch angle (β). The tip speed ratio is defined as the ratio between the rotational speed of a blade and actual velocity of the wind. The blade pitch angle [3] (β=0°) always maintain zero degrees because of WT gives maximum torque. The Cp is the fraction of the upstream wind power, which is captured by the rotor blades. The remaining power is discharged or wasted in the downstream wind, theoretically maximum value of Cp is 0.59. TABLE 1 Parameters and specifications of wind turbine model

B. Generator modeling
The Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) is used to produce electricity from the mechanical energy obtained from the wind. The two- phase synchronous reference frame is used to derive the dynamic model of the PMSG, which is q-axis is 90° ahead of the d-axis with respect to the direction of rotation [4]. In order to maintain synchronization between the two-phase quantity (d-q reference frame) and the three-phase quantity (abc-three phase frame) by using a phase locked loop (PLL) [4].

diode current (Id) and the shunt leakage current (Ish). The series resistance (Rs) shows the internal resistance to the current flow, and depends on the p-n junction depth, the impurities and the contact resistance. The PV conversion efficiency is sensitive to small variation in Rs but is insensitive to variations in shunt resistance (Rsh). A small increase in Rs can decrease the PV output significantly [3]. To describing the PV cell electrical performance, two important parameters are considered, they are open-circuit voltage (Voc) and the short-circuit current (Isc). The Voc of the cell is obtained when load current is zero is given by the following [3]: 푉표푐=푉+퐼푅푠푕 (5) 퐼푑=퐼퐷 푄푉표푐 퐴퐾푇 −1 6 Where, Id = the diode current ID = the saturation current of the diode Q = electron charge =1.6×10-19 Coulombs A = curve fitting or diode ideality constant K = Boltzmann constant = 1.38×10-23 joule/°K T = Temperature on absolute scale (°K) The load current is therefore given by the expression [3]: 퐼=퐼푙−퐼퐷 푒 푄푉표푐 퐴퐾푇−1 − 푉표푐 푅푠푕 (7) The maximum photovoltage is produced under the open-circuit voltage, by ignoring the ground leakage current, equation 7 with I = 0 gives the open circuit voltage [3] as the following: 푉표푐= 퐴퐾푇 푄 퐿표푔푛 퐼퐿 퐼퐷 +1 (8) The photoconversion efficiency [3] of the PV cell is defined as the following: 휂= 푒푙푒푐푡푟푖푐푎푙푝표푤푒푟표푢푡푝푢푡 푠표푙푎푟푝표푤푒푟푖푚푝푖푛푔푖푛푔푡푕푒푐푒푙푙 (9) In this paper a KC200GT PV module is considered.

D. DC-DC Boost Converter The DC-DC Converters are widely used in regulated switch mode DC power supply [6]. In this paper the dc-dc boost converter is used to regulate DC output voltage from the Wind and PV array at dc- link, but wind turbine produces ac output that is converted to dc by using Rectifier. The circuit of the dc-dc boost converter is shown in Figure 3. From the circuit diagram mainly it consists four components: Inductor, Electronic switch, Diode and output capacitor.
Fig. 3 Circuit of DC-DC Boost converter The boost converter can operate in two modes of operation. These two operating modes are continuous conduction mode (CCM) for efficient power conversion, and discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) for low power or stand-by operation. In this paper the boost converter operates in continuous conduction mode. The operation of the CCM explained is as follows [6]: Mode 1: (0<t≤ton) In this mode of operation, the MOSFET’s is switched on at t = 0 and terminates at t = ton. The current in inductor is increases linearly when the switch is ON state, at this the inductor voltage is Vi.

MOSFET’s is turned on again during the next cycle.

IV. CONTROL SYSTEMS DESIGN
In this paper the hybrid system consists of two
renewable sources, wind and PV system. The WT is a
machine it converts wind energy to the electrical
energy, generally it produces ac output voltage is
converted to dc output voltage by using Rectifier. In
order to get maximum torque from the WT the blade
pitch angle (β) is always maintain zero degrees by
using pitch angle control. The dc output voltage of
the Rectifier is given as an input to the dc-dc boost
converter, which regulates dc output voltage to a
480V DC. The PV cell produces the electrical energy
from the light energy. The PV array produces DC
output voltage. A maximum power point tracking
(MPPT) is used to draw the maximum power from
the PV array. The unregulated dc output voltage of
the PV array is given to the boost converter.
A DC-DC Boost converter is used to regulate the
dc output voltage from the Wind and PV system to a
480V DC individually. In order to produce constant
output voltage, a voltage feedback control is used. In
this control system the measured output voltage of
the boost converter is compared with the reference
voltage (480V) and the error value is given to the
PWM block through a PI controller, then the PWM
block produces the required firing pulses to the
MOSFET’s. Then the boost converter gives the
desired output voltage (≈480V DC).

VI. CONCLUSION
This paper presented the dynamic modeling and control of grid connected Hybrid system primarily powered by Wind and PV energy. These renewable sources are integrated in to the main dc link through dc-dc boost converters. The present work mainly includes the grid connected application of the hybrid system. A 26-kW wind and solar hybrid system dynamic model was developed with MATLAB/Simulink. The dynamic performance of Hybrid Wind and Photovoltaic power systems are studied for different case scenarios like, Case 1: Constant generation and Constant load Case 2: Constant generation and Change in load Case 3: Variable generation and Change in load From the simulation results, it is observed that the developed models for all converters to preserve stable system under various case scenarios, and also it shows that by using a VSI and d-q current control method to give a better performance of grid- connected hybrid system. The hybrid power system can give a reliable power to the loads and it is suitable for stand-alone and Grid-connected application.
