Abstract:
Due to the lack of cruising ability in HEV(Hybrid Electric Vehicle), along with concerns about environmental issues, a hybrid power source built from a battery and an ultracapacitor is used as vehicular power source and is charged during braking processes. Based on the rule of “the lower ultracapacitor voltage, the less battery charging; the higher ultracapacitor voltage, the more battery charging”, this paper adopts a fuzzy logic control strategy to supervise the braking energy. Simulation results obtained using MATLAB/SIMULINK indicate that this method can effectively manage the energy distribution during regenerative braking processes and extend driving distance. Furthermore, the present approach provides an improvement in fuel economy and reduces pollutant emissions.

Abstract:
To solve the problem as influence of feedback elevator energy saving device on power quality and high cost of ultracapacitor storage elevator energy saving device, isolation bidirectional DC/DC converter is used. By analysis and modeling of isolation bidirectional DC/DC converter with small signal analysis method, double loop PI control strategy is introduced. The technical difficulty that high transformation ratio transform of DC bus voltage to ultracapacitor voltage is overcome. Cost of elevator energy saving device is reduced at the same time when storage and reuse of elevator feedback energy are realized. Based on the advantage of high current discharge, high current provided by ultracapacitor reduces impact on power grid when elevator starts. The effectiveness and feasibility of the control method is proved through MATLAB/Simulink simulation.

Abstract:
This contribution outlines the design of electric vehicle direct-current (DC) bus control system supplied by a battery/ultracapacitor hybrid energy storage system, and its coordination with the fully electrified vehicle driveline control system. The control strategy features an upper-level DC bus voltage feedback controller and a direct load compensator for stiff tracking of variable (speed-dependent) voltage target. The inner control level, comprising dedicated battery and ultracapacitor current controllers, is commanded by an intermediate-level control scheme which dynamically distributes the upper-level current command between the ultracapacitor and the battery energy storage systems. The feedback control system is designed and analytical expressions for feedback controller parameters are obtained by using the damping optimum criterion. The proposed methodology is verified by means of simulations and experimentally for different realistic operating regimes, including electric vehicle DC bus load step change, hybrid energy storage system charging/discharging, and electric vehicle driveline subject to New European Driving Cycle (NEDC), Urban Driving Dynamometer Schedule (UDDS), New York Certification Cycle (NYCC) and California Unified Cycle (LA92), as well as for abrupt acceleration/deceleration regimes.

Abstract:
Abstract The output power obtained from solar-wind hybrid system fluctuates with changes in weather conditions. These power fluctuations cause adverse effects on the voltage, frequency and transient stability of the utility grid. In this paper, a control method is presented for power smoothing of grid integrated PV/wind hybrid system using ultracapacitors in a DC coupled structure. The power fluctuations of hybrid system are mitigated and smoothed power is supplied to the utility grid. In this work both photovoltaic (PV) panels and the wind generator are controlled to operate at their maximum power point. The grid side inverter control strategy presented in this paper maintains DC link voltage constant while injecting power to the grid at unity power factor considering different operating conditions. Actual solar irradiation and wind speed data are used in this study to evaluate the performance of the developed system using MATLAB/Simulink software. The simulation results show that output power fluctuations of solar-wind hybrid system can be significantly mitigated using the ultracapacitor based storage system.

Abstract:
Control of a perturbed electric power system comprised of a hydrogen fuel cell (HFC), boost and boost/buck DC–DC power converters, and the ultra-capacitor (UC) is considered within an electric vehicle application. A relative degree approach was applied to control the servomotor speed, which is the main controllable load of the electric car. This control is achieved in the presence of the torque disturbances via directly controlling the armature voltage. The direct voltage control was accomplished by controlling the HFC voltage and the UC current in the presence of the model uncertainties. Controlling the HFC and UC current based on the power balance approach eliminated the non-minimum phase property of the DC–DC boost converter. Conventional first order sliding mode controllers (1-SMC) were employed to control the output voltage of the DC–DC boost power converter and the load current of the UC. The current in HFC and the servomotor speed were controlled by the adaptive-gain second order SMC (2-ASMC). The efficiency and robustness of the HFC/UC-based electric power systems controlled by 1-SMC and 2-ASMC were confirmed on a case study of electric car speed control via computer simulations.

Abstract:
Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is a advanced machine that can control electrical spark to erode metal on the workpiece. In manufacturing, EDM is used on hard material parts that are extremely difficult to machine by conventional machining processes. EDM system consists of a shaped tool and the work piece, which are connected to a power supply and placed in a dielectric fluid. EDM pulse power generator applies voltage and current pulses between the electrode and workpiece to generate sparks through the gap. To obtain the optimum metarial removal rate (MRR), a good alternative is to improve the gap voltage and gap current. A proposed solution to these issue is combining ultracapacitor bank to the main power supply circuit for EDM machines. The control feedback of this research is designed to make sure that the current on DC bus is maintained at current setting during the machining processes.

Abstract:
This article intends designing and implementing a hysteresis current controller for the energy management system within an electric traction to maintain the output voltage in a certain interval whatever the disturbances to the system. The energy management system within an electric traction encompasses a battery functioning as a fuel cell within the primary energy source, an ultracapacitor considered as an auxiliary source and two direct current to direct current converters renowned as boost and buck/boost converters, whose modeling is constantly contemplated as a very difficult task. As a matter of fact, these converters are designed as switching circuits with a prevalent change of structures, which makes them strongly nonlinear. Thereby, they can be assumed as hybrid dynamical systems whose continuous parts are especially characterized by electrical magnitudes, namely, the currents and voltages in the converters, and whose discrete part is illustrated by the high-frequency switching metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor which demands faster control mechanisms to ensure proper regulation of the output voltage of two direct current to direct current converters. The validity and effectiveness strategy control of the energy management system are highlighted by numerical simulation as well as by experimental implementation on the DSPACE1104 R&D Controller Board.

Abstract:
Dynamics of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) with hydrogen storage system for generating part of Hercules airplanes electrical energy is presented. Feasibility of using fuel cell (FC) for this airplane is evaluated by means of simulations. Temperature change and dual layer capacity effect are considered in all simulations. Using a three-level 3-phase inverter, FC’s output voltage is connected to the essential bus of the airplane. Moreover, it is possible to connect FC’s output voltage to airplane DC bus alternatively. PID controller is presented to control flow of hydrogen and oxygen to FC and improve transient and steady state responses of the output voltage to load disturbances. FC’s output voltage is regulated via an ultracapacitor. Simulations are carried out via MATLAB/SIMULINK and results show that the load tracking and output voltage regulation are acceptable. The proposed system utilizes an electrolyser to generate hydrogen and a tank for storage. Therefore, there is no need for batteries. Moreover, the generated oxygen could be used in other applications in airplane.

Abstract:
As the world's energy use continues to grow, the development of clean distributed generation becomes increasingly important. Fuel cells are an environmentally friendly renewable energy source that can be used in a wide range of applications and are ideal for distributed power applications. In this study, the power conversion element of a dual single-phase, 10 kW stand-alone fuel cell system is analyzed. The modular converter consists of a DC-DC front-end cascaded with a half-bridge inverter. The entire system is accurately modeled, to help determine any interactions that may arise. Control strategies based on simplicity, performance, and cost are evaluated. A simple voltage loop, with careful consideration to avoid transformer saturation, is employed for the phase-shifted DC-DC converter. Several experimental transfer functions were measured to confirm the modeling assumptions and verify the control design of the DC-DC converter. Two control options for the inverter are explored in detail, and experimental results confirm that the modulation index must be controlled to regulate the output voltage during various load conditions. The final system is implemented without the use of current sensors, thus keeping the inverter cost down. Experimental results using a power supply are given for resistive, inductive, and nonlinear loads and the performance is acceptable. Fuel cell test results, including transient response, are also displayed and analyzed.

Abstract:
The work deals with relatively new components allowing electric energy accumulation – ultracapacitors. It focuses on their application in traffic systems – in independent electric vehicles. Design and verification of a system with ultracapacitor and DC/DC adaptive converter was done. Control of the adaptive converter modifies very positively the time wafeform of the traction accumulator current during the drive cycle. The designed connection of ultracapacitor and DC/DC converter implemented in the drive structure of experimental electric vehicle with induction machine contributes to increment the action radius of the vehicle by 16% (determined by experimental verification). This result was achived particularly by limitation of traction accumulator current peaks, And by more effective storage of energy gained by recuperative braking of the vehicle as well. The core of the system is a control of the adaptive converter in order to provide an active filtration of the accumulator’s current to its long-period mean value, i.e. elimination of current (power) peaks. These are caused by acceleration from non-zero initial vehicle speed or by recuperative braking. This is done by a subsidiary current loop. The converter has a superior voltage regulation loop, which sets in long-time period the voltage of ultracapacitors to the proper value – indirectly dependent on the speed of the vehicle. This ensures the appropriate energy management of the ultracapacitor. In the following, properties of test set of ultracapacitors were verified. Finally, methods of suppression of capacity variability influence in series connection of these components were compiled and critically reviewed.

Abstract:
Future aircraft are likely to employ electrically powered actuators for adjusting flight control surfaces, and other high power transient loads. To meet the peak power demands of aircraft electric loads and to absorb regenerated power, an ultracapacitor-based energy storage system is examined in which a bidirectional dual active bridge DC-DC converter is used. This Thesis deals with the analysis, design, development and performance evaluation of the dual active bridge (DAB) converter, which can act as an interface between the ultracapacitor energy storage bank and the aircraft electrical power network. A steady-state analysis is performed for the DAB converter producing equations for the device RMS and average currents and the peak and RMS currents in the coupling inductor. This analysis focuses on understanding converter current shapes and identifying the zero-voltage switching (ZVS) boundary condition. A converter prototype was designed and built and its operation verified through SABER simulations confirming the accuracy of the analysis. Experimental results are included to support the analysis for 7kW, 20 kHz operating conditions giving a measured efficiency of 90%. To enhance the performance of the converter under light-loads, a quasi-square-wave mode of operation is proposed in which a dead-time is introduced either on the transformer primary voltage, or on the transformer secondary voltage, or simultaneously on both transformer primary and secondary. A similar detailed analysis as that for square-wave operation has been undertaken for all three cases and the converter performance was analysed focusing on ZVS operating range, impact of the RMS/peak inductor currents and converter efficiency. The theoretical work was validated through SABER simulations and proof of concept experimental measurements at 1kW, 20 kHz, which resulted in converter efficiency well above 91%. A 9%-17% improvement in efficiency and a 12%-17% improvement in ZVS operating range over square-wave operation are observed for similar operating conditions. Furthermore, a novel bidirectional current control technique for the DAB converter is presented. A SABER simulation has been performed and the converter operation is validated for square-wave and quasi-square-wave modes under steady-state and transient conditions.

Abstract:
A rule-based and a model predictive power management strategy are evaluated in experiments for power management of a fuel cell/ultracapacitor hybrid. The two degrees of freedom provided by use of two dc/dc convertors enable independent low-level control of the DC BUS voltage and the current split between the fuel cell and ultracapacitor. The high-level control objectives are to respond to rapid variations in load while minimizing damaging fluctuations in fuel cell current and maintaining the ultracapacitor charge (or voltage) within allowable bounds. Experiments show that both strategies can be tuned to meet these control objectives; however the predictive nature of the model predictive scheme coupled with its ability to aggressively push the ultracapacitor to its constraint line results in smoother fuel cell current transients.

Abstract:
In this work, simultaneous energy regeneration and motion control for robot manipulators with brushless motors is considered. The robot has a number of semi-active joints connected to ultracapacitors, while the remaining joints are fully-active, powered from constant-voltage power supplies. A three-phase inverter is used to apply voltage to each motor, and the space vector pulse width modulation technique is used to generate voltage commands for the inverter. A PI controller is used to generate voltage commands for the inverter based on reference currents. A method is developed to obtain actual torque based on the desired torque generated by a virtual controller, which can be any suitable robot motion control algorithm, for instance inverse dynamics. A novel optimization approach is used to generate reference currents that maximize the amount of regenerative energy stored in the ultracapacitor and motor inductance subject to the torque demanded by the virtual controller. An explicit solution is found for the optimal current references and it is shown that the well-known choice of a zero direct current component in the direct-quadrature frame is sub-optimal relative to our energy optimization objective. A simulation using a 2-link planar manipulator with one active and one semi-active joint is used to illustrate the results.

This paper presents a comparative performance analysis between the generalized predictive control (GPC) and the traditional proportional integral derivative (PID) under different dynamics cases in hybrid energy systems, which is composed of by a 400 W small wind turbine, a polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells (PEMFC), an electrolyzer, and finally the ultracapacitors and a power converter unit in order to minimize voltage fluctuations in the system and generate AC voltage. In addition, the transient responses of the system to step changes in the load current and wind speed are presented as a result of the manipulation in the flow of reactants to the fuel cell. SIMULINK™ is used for the simulation of this highly nonlinear hybrid energy system.
