This paper investigates impacts of possible chances in energy policy and consumption behavior on optimal energy management and feasibility study of a hybrid energy system. The study was performed on a remote area near Esfarjan, a village located in Shahreza, Iran. In the main scenario, the current energy policy is applied while the consumption behavior of customers is studied by means of an inc...

Hardware implementation of the Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) control strategy is an important stage of the development of the vehicle electric control unit (ECU). This paper introduces Model-Based Design (MBD) approach for implementation of PHEV energy management. Based on this approach, implementation of the control algorithm on an electronic hardware is performed using automatic co...

In this research the simulation of an air independent Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) propulsion system was taken into consideration. The system consists of several parts including PEM fuel cell stack, metal hydride and liquid oxygen (LOX) tanks, and also pre-heaters of oxygen and hydrogen gases along with other heat exchangers, to ensure proper operation of system. The heat recovery...

This paper investigates the effect of temperature on a hybrid energy storage system with various energy management systems. The hybrid energy storage system consists of a fuel cell, ultracapacitor and battery with associated DC/DC and DC/AC converters. The energy management strategies employed are the state machine control strategy, fuzzy frequency/logic decoupling strategy, minimization strate...

In this study, the energy consumption of Nasirabad Industrial Park (NIP) treatment plant was evaluated. A combination of up-flow anaerobic baffled reactor (UABR) and aerobic integrated fixed-bed activated sludge (IFAS) processes were employed in NIP. To find out the average electrical energy use per m3 influent wastewater, the rate of energy usage of the plant was calculated by data ...

The idea of the Internet of Things (IoT) has turned out to be increasingly prominent in the cuttingedge period of innovation than at any other time. From little family unit gadgets to extensive modernmachines, the vision of IoT has made it conceivable to interface the gadgets with the physical worldaround them. This expanding prominence has likewise made the IoT gadgets and ap...

This paper develops an energy management approach for a multi-microgrid (MMG) taking into account multiple objectives involving plug-in electric vehicle (PEV), photovoltaic (PV) power, and a distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) to improve power provision sharing. In the proposed approach, there is a pool of fuzzy microgrids granules that they compete with each other to prolong their lives...
