In the power system operations, the economic load dispatch of thermal generating system is among one of the most important problems.Recent global inclination towards the utilization of more and more renewable energy makes this problem important than ever. In this work, the economic dispatch of thermal and PV system with battery storage is carried out. Here Unit Commitment (UC) using Dynamic Pro...

The control of the power semiconductors in a three-level NPC topology employs a set of 12 control signals in total. A back-to-back two-level/three-level inverter has been built to circulate power performing arbitrary load conditions to analyse the thermal dissipation of the power semiconductors. This thermal analysis utilises an IR camera to perform an in-situ measurement and allows precise mod...

A bolometric diagnostic system with features necessary for steady-state operation in the superconducting stellarator W7-X was designed. During a pulse length of 1800 s with an ECRH (electron cyclotron resonance heating) power of 10 MW, the components suffer not only from a large thermal load but also from stray radiation of the nonabsorbed isotropic microwaves. This paper gives an overview of t...

This paper presents for the first time a closed-form solution of dynamic response sigmoid bidirectional functionally graded (SBDFG) microbeams under moving harmonic load and thermal environmental conditions. The formulation is established in context modified couple stress theory to integrate effects microstructure. On basis elasticity theory, nonclassical governing equations are derived by usin...

A commercial electromechanical actuator (EMA) is to be dynamically tested with predetermined stroke and load profiles for transient thermal and electric power behavior to validate a numerical model used for aerospace applications. The EMA will follow the stroke profile representative of a real aircraft mission duty cycle. A hydraulic press will exert a corresponding load profile onto the EMA. S...

Load balancing functionalities are crucial for best Grid performance and utilization. Accordingly,this paper presents a new meta-scheduling method called TunSys. It is inspired from the natural phenomenon of heat propagation and thermal equilibrium. TunSys is based on a Grid polyhedron model with a spherical like structure used to ensure load balancing through a local neighborhood propagation s...

─ A new functionality for the hybrid electromagnetic – thermodynamic simulations of microwave heating scenarios in the time domain is presented. The new functionality consists in the modelling of the heated load movement throughout the simulated process. Various types of the movement trajectories have been allowed for, including load rotation and load translation along user-defined piecewise-li...
