No. of bitstreams: 1 Miguel Francisco da Silveira.pdf: 1561110 bytes, checksum: dcb1486a17c6616e1fcf6803ce1272ec (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013-01-31 / Milton Valente / UNISINOS - Universidade do Vale do Rio dos Sinos / Muito tem se falado sobre o uso de fontes alternativas de energia e do uso de pequenas fontes em geração distribuída (GD), especialmente com a nova legislação brasileira que agora considera esta possibilidade. O aproveitamento da energia solar vem crescendo ao longo dos últimos anos, tanto através de seu uso como fonte térmica, quanto através da geração fotovoltaica, baseado no baixo impacto ambiental desta fonte de energia. Este trabalho tem por objetivo estudar o impacto da geração distribuída no sistema de distribuição de energia elétrica pelo uso de geradores fotovoltaicos conectados diretamente à rede de distribuição. O estudo é realizado em regime permanente, sob o ponto de vista elétrico, em um alimentador específico, considerando curvas típicas propostas para dias ensolarados e encobertos. Para esta análise foi utilizada uma base de dados de um ano, com dados de irradiância e de temperatura do ar ambiente coletados na cidade de Porto Alegre - RS entre Julho de 2004 e Junho de 2005. Esta base de dados serviu para estabelecer as curvas típicas de geração de um dia ensolarado e de um dia encoberto, através de uma metodologia desenvolvida. Com o uso destas curvas típicas foi definido o padrão de geração fotovoltaica em um dia ensolarado e em um dia encoberto. Após a definição deste padrão de geração foi possível analisar o impacto em um alimentador específico, localizado na cidade de Viamão - RS. A análise do impacto na rede considerou a influência que a geração distribuída ocasiona nos níveis de tensão nos diferentes nós ao longo do alimentador. Foi considerada uma penetração de 20% de GD, em dois diferentes horários para um dia ensolarado e para um dia encoberto. A potência gerada foi normalizada em relação à potência consumida nos diferentes pontos do alimentador. Os impactos observados na rede de distribuição não foram relevantes, entretanto a geração fotovoltaica contribuiu levemente para a melhora em alguns níveis de tensão que estavam na faixa crítica, em alguns cenários analisados. / Alternative sources of energy and distributed generation (DG) are current subjects, especially in Brazil where the regulations had just changed and now the possibility of DG and compensation of energy can be considered. The use of solar energy has been increased along the last years, thus as a heat source or as photovoltaic (PV) generation, based mainly on the low environmental impact of this energy source. This essay aims to study the impact of distributed generation in the electrical energy distribution system caused by the use of photovoltaic generators connected straight to the distribution grid. The study is done in steady state condition, in a specific feeder, considering typical curves proposed for sunny and cloudy days. A data base of irradiance and temperature of air ambient of one year had been used for this analysis. The data had been collected in the city of Porto Alegre – RS – Brazil, from July 2004 to June 2005. This data base was used to establish the generation typical curves of sunny and cloudy days through a methodology developed. The photovoltaic generation standards for sunny and cloud days had been defined by the use of these typical curves. With these standards were possible to analysis the impact in a specific feeder, located in the city of Viamão – RS – Brazil. The analysis of the impact in the grid considered the influence of distributed generation could cause on voltage levels at different bars along the feeder. It had been considered a penetration of DG of 20%, in two different hourly times for each day, sunny and cloudy typical curves. The power generated had been normalized related to the power consumed in different points of the feeder. The impact observed in the distribution grid is not relevant. However, the distribution generation did contribute to slightly raise some voltage levels that are already among the critical zone, in some of the sets analysed.

Orientador: Ennio Peres da Silva / Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Faculdade de Engenharia Mecânica / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-23T09:35:24Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Matos_MaianaBritode_D.pdf: 3870161 bytes, checksum: e65c9b70a229024faf397df5a0049ec6 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013 / Resumo: Tradicionalmente, a geração de energia elétrica em pequenas comunidades isoladas no Brasil é feita a partir da utilização de conjuntos motores geradores, que exigem uma rotineira manutenção especializada, quase nunca existente nas comunidades; necessitam do suprimento constante de óleo Diesel, que é encarecido pelas longas distâncias que é transportado; além de emitirem gases poluentes e de efeito estufa. Em algumas localidades brasileiras e em diversas partes do mundo, já existem comunidades isoladas das redes de distribuição de eletricidade que são assistidas pela energia solar fotovoltaica e/ou eólica, fontes intermitentes de energia, com armazenamento de energia feito através de baterias. Atualmente, com o desenvolvimento da tecnologia da célula combustível, existe a possibilidade de utilizar o hidrogênio como vetor energético, em substituição às baterias. A originalidade desta tese é a análise conceitual (teórica) da geração de energia através de um sistema híbrido eólico-fotovoltaico com armazenamento por banco de baterias ou hidrogênio na cidade de Fortaleza- CE. A partir das características do sistema proposto no projeto, foi realizado um estudo de caso para um sistema de potência fotovoltaica instalada de 5kWP, potência instalada eólica de 6 kW e célula a combustível de 5 kW, tendo-se estimada a energia elétrica média diária disponibilizada com armazenamento por banco de baterias de 36,4 kWh (131,0 MJ) e para o sistema de hidrogênio de 22,7 kWh (81,7 MJ). Deste modo, pôde-se estimar que aproximadamente 17 famílias poderiam ser atendidas pelo sistema com armazenamento por banco de baterias e 11 famílias com armazenamento pelo sistema de hidrogênio. Por fim, também foi possível calcular que emissões de até 19 toneladas anuais de CO2 poderiam ser evitadas pela substituição dos bancos geradores pelo sistema híbrido eólico-fotovoltaico com armazenamento por banco de baterias e 12 toneladas no caso da produção de hidrogênio e sua reconversão em energia elétrica / Abstract: Traditionally, electricity generation in small isolated communities in Brazil is made from the use of generator engine sets, which require a specialized routine maintenance, almost inexistent in communities; need constant supply of diesel which becomes more expensive by the long distances it is transported; and emit greenhouse gases. In some places in Brazil and in several parts of the world, there are communities isolated from electricity distribution networks that are assisted by solar photovoltaic and / or wind power. However, these are intermittent sources of energy which demand power storage through batteries. Nowadays, with the development of fuel cell technology, there is the possibility of using hydrogen as an energy vector, replacing the batteries. The originality of this thesis is the conceptual analysis (theoretical) of power generation through a wind-solar hybrid system with storage by battery bank or hydrogen in the city of Fortaleza. From the characteristics of the system proposed in the project, we conducted a case study for a power system composed of 5kWp of PV, 6 kW of wind power and a 5 kW fuel cell. It was estimated that the average daily electricity supplied with a storage battery bank is 36.4 kWh (131,0 MJ) and for the hydrogen system 22.7 kWh (81,7 MJ). Thus, it could be estimated that approximately 17 families could be supplied by the system for storage battery bank and 11 families with storage system for hydrogen. Finally, it was also possible to calculate emissions of up to 19 tons of CO2 could be avoided by replacing the generators sets with wind-solar hybrid system and storage battery bank and by 12 tons in the case of hydrogen production and its conversion into electricity / Doutorado / Planejamento de Sistemas Energeticos / Doutora em Planejamento de Sistemas Energéticos

Phénomènes non linéaires et chaos dans les systèmes d’énergie renouvelable – Application à une installation photovoltaïque / Nonlinear phenomena and chaos in renewable energy systems - Application to a photovoltaic plant

Abdelmoula, Mohamed 30 March 2017 (has links)
Afin de satisfaire les besoins futurs en énergie et de réduire l’impact environnemental, l’application de l’énergie renouvelable propre a été récemment reconsidérée. Dans ce contexte, un intérêt croissant pour le système d’alimentation isolé a été mesuré.Le besoin de topologies de faible puissance alimentées par un générateur photovoltaïque, évitant l’utilisation de transformateur, accentue l’étude de systèmes d’alimentation autonomes de basse tension. D’où la nécessité d’étudier les stratégiesde contrôle associées garantissant la stabilité, la fiabilité et l’efficacité.À mesure que les systèmes d’alimentation autonome deviennent plus complexes, les non-linéarités jouent un rôle de plus en plus important dans le comportement du système. La modélisation doit refléter avec précision la dynamique des composants et du système. En outre, les outils d’analyse des systèmes dynamiques devraient être fiable, même dans différents régimes de fonctionnement, fournissant des prédictions précises du comportement de ces derniers. Ce travail est consacré à l’étude d’un système photovoltaïque autonome. La structure proposée se compose d’un panneau photovoltaïque, d’un hacheur et d’une charge connectée en cascade via un bus continu. Les efforts de recherche se concentrent sur le processus de modélisation et l’analyse de stabilité du système. Une implémentation avec une description complète du modèle est ainsi détaillée est validé epar des résultats de simulation. Après avoir donné l’état de l’art, le manuscrit est divisé en quatre parties. Ces parties sont dédiées à la modélisation d’une installation photovoltaïque, à l’amélioration de la simulation numérique, et à l’étude de dynamique de ce système sous contrôles numériques.La thèse présente un aperçu des modèles de générateurs photovoltaïques. Ensuite,un modèle électrique modifié du panneau photovoltaïque est proposé. Nous avons également détaillé le processus de modélisation de l’installation photovoltaïque.Un solveur amélioré de modèle Differential-Algebraic Equations (DAEs) est ensuite développé. Une dixième approche de modélisation est aussi présentée. Nous avons également décrit le système photovoltaïque par un modèle discret simplifié. Ensuite, l’analyse de stabilité du système étudié est détaillée. En outre, nous avons étudié le comportement chaotique qui apparaît dans l’installation photovoltaïque basée sur le hacheur à deux cellules. Le but de la dernière partie est de montrer comment stabiliser l’orbite chaotique du système. Enfin, pour atteindre cet objectif, la commande par retour d’état retardé Time-Delayed Feedback Control (TDFC) est appliquée. / In order to satisfy future energy requirement and reduce environmental impact, application of clean renewable energy, have been reconsidered recently. In this context, a growing interest in isolated power system has been observed. The need of low power topologies fed by photovoltaic array avoiding the use oftransformer open the study of small-scale stand-alone power system. Hence, theneed to study the associated control design strategies ensuring stability, reliability and high efficiency.As systems become more complex, nonlinearities play an increasingly importantrole in stand-alone power system behaviour. Modeling must accurately reflect component and system dynamics. In addition, analysis tools should continue to workreliably, even under various system conditions, providing accurate predictions of systems behaviour.This work is devoted to the study of a stand-alone photovoltaic power system.The proposed structure consists on photovoltaic array, a dc-dc buck converter, anda load connected in cascade through a dc bus. The research efforts focus on themodeling process and stability analysis, which leads to an implementation with acomprehensive description validated through simulation results.After giving the state-of-the-art in second chapter, the manuscript is divided into four chapters. These parts are dedicated to photovoltaic plant modeling, the numeric simulation improvements and dynamic investigation of the photovoltaic system under digital controls.The thesis presents an overview of the photovoltaic generator models. Then, amodified photovoltaic array model is proposed. We also detailed the photovoltaic plant modeling process. An improved Differential-Algebraic Equations (DAEs)solver is then investigated. We also described the photovoltaic system by a simplified discrete model. Then, the dynamic stability analysis is detailled. In addition,we have studied the chaotic behaviour that appears in the photovoltaic plant basedon the two-cell dc-dc buck converter.The aim of the last part is to show, using control theory and numerical simulation,how to apply a method to stabilize the chaotic orbit. Finally, to accomplish this aim, a time-delayed feedback controller is used.

Bidirectional Electric Vehicles Service Integration in Smart Power Grid with Renewable Energy Resources

Mohamed, Ahmed A S, Mr 09 November 2017 (has links)
As electric vehicles (EVs) become more popular, the utility companies are forced to increase power generations in the grid. However, these EVs are capable of providing power to the grid to deliver different grid ancillary services in a concept known as vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and grid-to-vehicle (G2V), in which the EV can serve as a load or source at the same time. These services can provide more benefits when they are integrated with Photovoltaic (PV) generation. The proper modeling, design and control for the power conversion systems that provide the optimum integration among the EVs, PV generations and grid are investigated in this thesis. The coupling between the PV generation and integration bus is accomplished through a unidirectional converter. Precise dynamic and small-signal models for the grid-connected PV power system are developed and utilized to predict the system’s performance during the different operating conditions. An advanced intelligent maximum power point tracker based on fuzzy logic control is developed and designed using a mix between the analytical model and genetic algorithm optimization. The EV is connected to the integration bus through a bidirectional inductive wireless power transfer system (BIWPTS), which allows the EV to be charged and discharged wirelessly during the long-term parking, transient stops and movement. Accurate analytical and physics-based models for the BIWPTS are developed and utilized to forecast its performance, and novel practical limitations for the active and reactive power-flow during G2V and V2G operations are stated. A comparative and assessment analysis for the different compensation topologies in the symmetrical BIWPTS was performed based on analytical, simulation and experimental data. Also, a magnetic design optimization for the double-D power pad based on finite-element analysis is achieved. The nonlinearities in the BIWPTS due to the magnetic material and the high-frequency components are investigated rely on a physics-based co-simulation platform. Also, a novel two-layer predictive power-flow controller that manages the bidirectional power-flow between the EV and grid is developed, implemented and tested. In addition, the feasibility of deploying the quasi-dynamic wireless power transfer technology on the road to charge the EV during the transient stops at the traffic signals is proven.

Modélisation multiphysique des flux énergétiques d’un couplage photovoltaïque-électrolyseur PEM-pile à combustible PEM en vue d’une application stationnaire / Energy flows modeling of a PEM electrolyser-photovoltaic generator-PEM fuel cell coupling dedicated to stationary applications

Agbli, Kréhi Serge 06 March 2012 (has links)
A l’aide de la Représentation Energétique Macroscopique (REM) comme outil de modélisation graphique, la modélisation et la gestion d’énergie d’une application stationnaire isolée à base d’un système PEMFC couplé à l’énergie solaire photovoltaïque comme source principale d’énergie sont développées. Afin d’assurer une autonomie du système en combustible, un électrolyseur PEM est intégré au dispositif. En outre, des packs de batteries et de supercondensateurs permettent un stockage d’énergie et de puissance.Grâce à la modularité de la REM, les modèles respectifs des différentes entités énergétiques du système ont été développés avant de les assembler pour reconstituer un modèle global. Une caractéristique propre de la REM étant la commande, une Structure Maximale de Commande (SMC) est déduite du modèle REM du système par application de règles d’inversion.Le phénomène d’effet échelle a permis de dimensionner le système grâce à un profil de consommation domestique d’énergie électrique. Une stratégie de gestion énergétique basée sur la méthode du bilan des flux de puissance et prenant en compte les dynamiques de chaque source a été développée. Différents modes de fonctionnement ont été étudiés. Grâce è un profil d’ensoleillement d’une journée, la pertinence du modèle a été évaluée. Il a été en outre introduit un couplage entre la méthode du bilan des flux de puissance et la logique floue afin que la stratégie de gestion redéfinisse les références des grandeurs électriques en tenant compte de l’état de charge des batteries et de celui des supercondensateurs. / A stand alone multi-source system based on the coupling of photovoltaic energy and both a PEM electrolyser and a PEMFC for stationary application is studied. The system gathers photovoltaic array as main energy source, ultracapacitors and batteries packs in order to smooth respectively fast and medium dynamic by supplying the load or by absorbing photovoltaic source overproduction. Because of the necessity of fuel availability, especially for islanding application like this one, a PEM electrolyser is integrated to the system for in situ hydrogen production.The main purpose being modeling and management of the power flows in order to meet the energy requirement without power cut, a graphical modeling tool namely Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR) is used because of its analysis and control strengths. Thanks to the modular feature of the EMR, the different models of each energetic entity of the system are performed before their assembling.By using scale effect, the energetic system sizing is performed according to a household power profile. Then, by the help of the multi-level representation, the maximal control structure (MCS) is deduced from the system EMR model. The electrical reference values of the MCS are generated by applying the power balancing method involving the own dynamic of each source into the energy management strategy. Different behavior modes are taken into account. By considering an irradiance profile for one day, the system is simulated highlighting its suitable behaviour. Moreover, the relevance of the introduced coupling between fuzzy logic controller and the power balancing method is pointed out.
