The benefits are demonstrated of using exergy to understand the efficiencies of electrical power technologies and to assist improvements. Although exergy applications in power systems and electrical technology are uncommon, exergy nevertheless identifies clearly potential reductions in thermodynamic losses and efficiency improvements. Various devices are considered, ranging from simple electric...

The power chain of autonomous devices consists of an energy scavenger, power converter and energy storage system. The interaction between a piezoelectric vibration energy scavenger, the power converter and the energy storage system is investigated. A system level approach, including mechanical and electrical domains, is pursued for impedance matching from mechanical domain to electrical domain ...

In this paper a procedure is established for solving the Probabilistic Load Flow in an electrical power network, considering correlation between power generated by power plants, loads demanded on each bus and power injected by wind farms. The method proposed is based on the generation of correlated series of power values, which can be used in a MonteCarlo simulation, to obtain the probability d...

Models of electrical interconnects, including inductance and skin effect, are reviewed. The models are used for estimating the performance of electrical interconnects, particularly related to delays, data rates, and power consumption for off-chip and on-chip interconnects and for clock distribution. It is demonstrated that correctly utilized, electrical interconnects do not severely limit chip ...

Power electronics, as defined by Thomas G. Wilson, is:" The technology associated with the efficient conversion, control and conditioning of electric power by static means from its available input form into the desired electrical output form." The goal of power electronics is to realize power conversion from an electrical source to an electrical load in a highly efficient, highly reliable and c...
