Current exercise machines create resistance to motion and dissipate energy as heat. Some companies create ways to harness this energy, but not cost-effectively. The Energy Harvesting from Exercise Machines (EHFEM) project reduces the cost of harnessing the renewable energy. The system architecture includes the elliptical exercise machines outputting power to DC-DC converters, which then connects to the microinverters. All microinverter outputs tie together and then connect to the grid. The control system, placed around the DC-DC converters, quickly detects changes in current, and limits the current to prevent the DC-DC converters and microinverters from entering failure states. An artificial neural network learns to mitigate incohesive microinverter and DC-DC converter actions. The DC-DC converter outputs 36 V DC operating within its specifications, but the microinverter drops input resistance looking for the sharp decrease in power that a solar panel exhibits. Since the DC-DC converter behaves according to Ohm’s Law, the inverter sees no decrease in power until the voltage drops below the microinverter’s minimum input voltage. Once the microinverter turns off, the converter regulates as intended and turns the microinverter back on only to repeat this detrimental cycle. Training the neural network with the back propagation algorithm outputs a value corresponding to the feedback voltage, which increases or decreases the voltage applied from the resistive feedback in the DC-DC converter. In order for the system to react well to changes on the order of tens of microseconds, it must read ADC values and compute the output neuron value quicker than previous control attempts. Measured voltages and currents entering and leaving the DC-DC converter constitute the neural network’s input neurons. Current and voltage sensing circuit designs include low-pass filtering to reduce software noise filtering in the interest of speed. The complete solution slightly reduces the efficiency of the system under a constant load due to additional component power dissipation, while actually increasing it under the expected varying loads.

This diploma thesis deals with a design layout of the fan power supply that ensures the increase of the efficiency of the heating unit. For usage in the areas without electric power, the power supply is secured by thermoelectric generator. The system has to function on the basis of autonomous system which turns itself on only when necessary. In the introductory part of the paper there is a recherché of thermoelectric generators for general usage. Next it mentions the basic findings in from the field of DC/DC converters for low power applications. In this part attention is given to MPPT algorithm. Furthermore basic knowledge from the field of heat transmission together with its most used elements is described. Subsequently existing applications that increase the effectiveness of heating are mentioned. Their disadvantage however is that they depend on the external source of power supply. The practical part to a large extent covers the analysis of the suitability of the chosen thermoelectric module. For securing of the heat gradient of the generator there was a model created meeting the figures in the manual and there are several simulations in the MATLAB program. Furthermore several measurements of the thermoelectric module took place in order to secure realistic figures. Subsequently a DC/DC converter was chosen. Finally the testing was made on the real composition. In conclusion there is an overall evaluation including the real usage and the economical aspect of the project. The outcomes of the work enable to avoid common mistakes that are part of many specialized articles. The created system is to be used after the adjustment of the cooling to the required aim. At the same time it becomes very effective.
