A Bidirectional Universal Dc/Dc ConverterTopology for Electric Vehicle Applicationsand Photovoltaic Applications

  • Abstract
  • Keywords
  • Reference
  • Full Article
This paper proposes a fully directional dc/dc converter that interfaces the motor drive of the vehicle withthe energy storage system of the vehicle and the external charger of the vehicle (only in case of PHEVs). This dc/dc converter topology works in all directions in buck or boost modes with bidirectional power flow and noninverted output voltage. Furthermore, the working of the proposed circuit on connecting to a load is also presented in the paper. The output is further improved by actuating a feedback loop. The results are verified by MATLAB Simulink model. Voltage and current waveforms are presented to validate the proposed converter topology and control schemes. This proposed converter can also be used in photovoltaic applications with unidirectional power flow. When the system in unidirectional buck mode is actuated by a 24V dc, an output voltage of 12V is obtained. When the system in unidirectional boost mode is actuated by a 24V dc, an output voltage of 100V is obtained. The power at the output level is improved by using the closed loop feedback and the same is proved by the MATLAB simulated waveforms.

Low Voltage Energy Harvesting With CukAnd Buck Boost Converter
  • Abstract
  • Keywords
  • Reference
  • Full Article
The conventional two-stage power converters with bridge rectifiers are inefficient and may not be practical for the low-voltage micro-generators. This paper presents an efficient ac-to-dc power converter that avoids the bridge rectification and directly converts the low ac input voltage to the required high dc output voltage at a higher efficiency. A cuk circuit and a buck boost circuit are connected parallel to an AC input voltage. During positive half cycle cuk circuit is working and during negative half cycle buck boost circuit is working. When an input of 400mV is given a regulated dc output of 3.5V is obtained from a dc bus having a single capacitor charged by both the circuits. The results are verified by MATLAB Simulink model. Voltage and current waveforms are presented to validate the proposed converter topology and control schemes.

A Novel Interleaved Buck Converter with Closed Loop Control
  • Abstract
  • Keywords
  • Reference
  • Full Article
The paper presents a new Interleaved Buck Converter with feedback control. Closed loop control provides a good regulated output voltage. Proposed IBC is suitable for application where input voltage is high and operating duty cycle is less than 50%.In this IBC two active switches are connected in series and a coupling capacitor is employed in the power path. It shows that the voltage stress across all the active switches is half of the input voltage before turn-on or after turn-off when the operating duty is below 50%. So the capacitive discharging and switching losses can be reduced considerably. It allows proposed IBC to have higher efficiency and operate with higher switching frequency. In addition, the proposed IBC has a higher step-down conversion ratio and a smaller output current ripple compared with a conventional IBC. Simulation can be carried out to study the performance of the proposed topology in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. With closed loop control a better output voltage is obtained.

Context-Based Image Segmentation of Radiography
  • Abstract
  • Keywords
  • Reference
  • Full Article
In radiographic images, many researchers have used conventional image processing techniques to detect and segment any defects, which could include cracks, porosity or inclusions. Usually, these methods do not take into account the contextual knowledge that is used by the experienced radiographer, and instead use standard image processing techniques. In this research, knowledge about the defects and the images are used to develop a much simpler image processing technique.

Controlled Single Switch Step down AC/DC Converter without Transformer
  • Abstract
  • Keywords
  • Reference
  • Full Article
A single-phase series-resonant soft-switched ac chopper without auxiliary switches with an efficient control circuit is presented. Basic working principle is series-resonant conversion without any cycloconversion action. Auxiliary switches are absent in this topology. The presented single-phase ac chopper is producing the resonant voltage robes by the action of series resonator with the help of four bidirectional switches. A series of sinusoidal amplitude quasi-sinusoidal pulses synthesized and present at the output as purely sinusoidal waveform following the input voltage waveform. Frequency modulation with a constant-on time control technique is used in this proposed system. Waveform syntheses for the output sinusoidal voltage are clearly explained with waveforms. A typical design example of single-phase soft-switching ac chopper is simulated to assess the system performance. The power efficiency is improved by using soft switching techniques. The total harmonic distortion is well below 1%. MATLAB software is used to simulate the model.

Mangrove forest in the District Jailolo, West Halmahera, the Province of North Mollucas nawadays has rampant serious destructions; this condition is very worrying because people in that area are always utilize wood (timber) from mangrove forests for various daily purposes, including for firewood, home building materials, furnishings and other household purposes such as boats as well as parts of the boat. Moreover the mangrove area has been converted into fishponds, which are in the end left out to become an open field. This sea tide may flood and endanger the people near the coastal area as well as the marine biota surrounding the mangrove forests. This condition is urgent, requiring real actions from the government as well as relevant agencies, to make efforts in order to conserve mangrove forests in many ways, one of which is to integrate to enviromental conservation learning in some subjects in school, using two ways: (1) infusion method; and (2) block method, by developing learning modules about natural disaster mitigation that can be taught from the elementary school students (SD) to the high school (SMA). From this, the students are expected to be able to foster their sense of belonging and awareness to the environment, including mangrove forests.

Studies on exhaust emissions from copper coated, four stroke spark ignition engine with catalytic converter with methanol blended gasoline

  • Abstract
  • Keywords
  • Reference
  • Full Article
The major exhaust emissions from spark ignition engine operating on gasoline fuel are carbon monoxide (CO) and unburnt hydrocarbons (UBHC), which are hazardous to human beings and environment. However, if the engine is operated with methanol blended gasoline, aldehydes are also to be taken into consideration. Experiments were carried out on a Copper coated spark ignition engine operated with methanol blended gasoline (20% v/v), fitted with a catalytic converter containing Sponge Iron as catalyst. The influence of engine parameters such as speed, compression ratio and configuration of the combustion chamber with and without catalytic converter on the exhaust emissions is studied. Comparative studies were made with a conventional engine using pure gasoline as fuel. The speed of engine has marginal effect, while compression ratio has strong influence on reduction of pollutants. Air injection into the catalytic converter has further reduced the pollutants considerably.
