Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultivariable Proportional Integral Controllers for Multi-Inputs-Multi-Outputs Desalination System Fed by a Photovoltaic GeneratorAbderrahmen Ben Chaabene, Anis SellamiProcess control is an essential part of the desalination industry that requires for driving at the optimum operating conditions an increase in the life time of the plant and reduction of the unit product cost. The desalination is a highly complex process, so that the majority of dynamic models are of the form of Multi-Inputs-Multi-Outputs (MIMO) systems. Problem statement: Driving … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,934 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Temperature Dependence Coefficients of Amorphous Silicon and Crystalline Photovoltaic Modules Using Malaysian Field Test InvestigationSulaiman Shaari, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Nowshad Amin, Mohd Nizan KassimThe temperature dependence coefficients of amorphous silicon and crystalline photovoltaic (PV) modules using Malaysian field data have been obtained using linear regression technique. This is achieved by studying three test stand-alone PV-battery systems using 62 Wp a-Si, 225 Wp multi-crystalline and 225 Wp mono-crystalline PV modules. These systems were designed to provide electricity for rural domestic loads at 200 W, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,281 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Development of a Photovoltaic Power System for Tropical Greenhouse CoolingFaisal Mohammed Seif Al-Shamiry, Desa Ahmad, Abdul Rashid Mohamed Sharif et al.Renewable energy sources like photovoltaic (PV) panels are used today in many applications. Natural ventilation in tropical greenhouse is common method for ventilation, which gives higher inside temperatures compared to the outside temperatures. In addition, this type of ventilation is not enough to reduce high temperature inside the structure in low land areas. Thus the requirement of cooling is increased. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,213 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDesign of a Synchronous Reference Frame Controlled Fuzzy Logic Based Distribution Static Compensator to Enhance Distribution System Power QualityRekha Sampath, Lokesh Mallaiah, Ashwini A V et al.The demand for enhanced power quality in distribution systems has increased due to the widespread utilization of various AC loads, including rectifiers, inductive loads, and variable speed drives. When these nonlinear loads are combined with renewable energy sources, harmonics are introduced in the system. These can affect the way other equipment in the network works and leave the system vulnerable … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 27 Feb 2026 · 1,710 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordWearable Photovoltaic Applications as Energy Sources for Everyday DevicesAfonso da Silva Ravasco, Joao Paulo N. Torres, Ricardo LameirinhasSolar technology since its first implementation for energy production has evolved in numerous directions to become part of a normal reality in future energy systems. The people’s energetic consumption changed as well. In the present days, people use portable devices more than ever, such as mobile phones and laptops and to power these portable devices, batteries are used. But what … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2021 · 7,462 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordRobust and Efficient Controller to Design a Standalone Source Supplied DC and AC Load Powered by Photovoltaic GeneratorHassan AbouobaidaThe present work describes the analysis, modeling and control of a cascade DC-DC and DC-AC power conditioning stage to control a output voltage to supply a DC and AC load systems. To maximize energy extracted from PV generator and control output voltage a RCC MPPT and backstepping controller are designed. The stability of the control algorithm is demonstrated by means … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 26 Oct 2016 · 7,723 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUtilization of Solar Radiation in High Energy Intensive of the World by PV SystemU. Ali RahomaSolar energy can be converted directly into electricity by means of solar cells. Solar cells currently cost around $3.50 per watt for crystalline cells and $2 per watt for thin-film wafers, which are less efficient but can be integrated into building materials. Industry analysts note that between 2000 and 2005, each doubling of cumulative production resulted in a price drop … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2008 · 9,680 accessesView PDF Cite
