Finding optimal solutions for an economic load dispatch problem considering thermal, solar and wind power plants by using salp swarm and northern goshawk optimization algorithms
Abstract: This paper proposes a new variant of the traditional economic load dispatch (NELD) problem. Unlike traditional economic load dispatch (TELD), generating sources in NELD are diversified with different types, including thermal, wind, and solar power plants. The reduction of total fuel consumption from thermal power plants is the main objective of this study. The Salp swarm algorithm and Northern Goshawk optimization are utilized to find the optimal solution for NELD. …

The application of the Jellyfish search algorithm for solving Modified economic load dispatch under the consideration of prohibited operation zones, varied load demand, and renewable energy sources
Abstract: In this research, an expanded version of the original economic load dispatch problem (EELD) is concerned to optimize operation of power plants in power systems. While solving the problem, the power supplied from solar energy is considered in addition to the conventional thermal power plants. The main objective function of the research is to minimize the entire electricity generating cost (EEGC) of all thermal power plants in the systems. On …

Fuzzy Based Power Flow Control in Grid Connected Hybrid PV-PEMFC Microgrid System
Abstract: This paper evaluates the performance of a fuzzy based power flow control of grid connected hybrid system. The hybrid system composed of a Photovoltaic (PV) array and a Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is considered. The photovoltaic (PV) array normally uses a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique to continuously deliver the highest power to the load when there are variations in irradiation and temperature occur, which make it …

Seismic Response Characterization of Vertically Irregular Multi-Storey Buildings Incorporating Mass and Stiffness Variations Using E-TABS Software
Abstract: The increasing demand for innovative architectural designs has led to the widespread use of vertically irregular configurations in high-rise reinforced concrete (RC) buildings. However, such irregularities significantly influence structural performance under seismic loading conditions, leading to complex structural behaviour and stress concentration at specific levels This study focuses on evaluating the seismic behaviour of vertically irregular multi-storey buildings using nonlinear time history analysis, which provides a realistic representation of structural …

Speed Control of An Inverter Fed Three-Phase Induction Motor Using IP Controller Considering Core Loss and Stray Load Loss
Abstract: Consideration of core losses and stray load losses to design a controller of an inverter fed induction motor are affected to the flux and torque decoupling strategy adversely. As a consequence, the detuning of field-oriented control (FOC) is required. The detuning strategies have been developed in some literatures. But the implementation of detuning becomes difficult because of higher order expression. In general, the controlling and estimation of AC drives are …

Design and Performance Evaluation of A Refrigeration System Utilizing The Peltier Cooling Effect
Abstract: A domestic refrigerator with 5star rating and having capacity 180 Liters consumes 265 units per year. In India average cost of electricity consumption per unit for domestic usage up to 100 units is Rs 5.31per Unit and beyond 300 units it is Rs.8.95 and for industrial it may go beyond Rs 10.45/kWh. This scenario demands for alternative cooling technology that can replace totally VCR (vapour compression refrigeration) system. This thesis …

Variations of Macroplastics in Water and Sediments at Bundu Waterfront, Upper Bonny Estuary, Rivers State, Nigeria
Abstract: Macroplastic pollution has become an increasingly severe environmental challenge, particularly in urban waterfronts where waste management is inadequate. Bundu Waterfront of the Upper Bonny Estuary in Port Harcourt, Rivers State is a sink for macroplatics from careless disposal of solid wastes and inadequate management thus affecting the biological integrity and aquatic life of this estuary. The resultant impact of the macroplastics on abiotic factors through the evaluation of different floating …

Comparative Analysis of Vertical Geometric Irregular Buildings by Fragility Curve Using Pushover Analysis
Abstract: The present work deals with the analysis of vertical geometric irregular structures, such as step buildings and setback buildings, which exhibit stiffness irregularity at different locations. These structures are analyzed using pushover analysis, a nonlinear static analysis method that provides insight into the performance of buildings under seismic loading by incrementally applying lateral forces until a target displacement is reached or the structure collapses. Stiffness irregularities in buildings can significantly …
