This study investigates the feasibility of using fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors for multipoint thermal monitoring of several power semiconductor devices (PSDs), such as insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), and rectifiers assembled on a common heatsink in a three-phase inverter. A novel approach is proposed to integrate FBG sensors beneath the baseplates of the IGBT modules, avoiding the need for invasive modifications to the device structure. By strategically positioning multiple FBG sensors, accurate temperature profiles of critical components can be obtained. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method, with the temperature measurements from FBG sensors closely matching those obtained using thermal infrared (IR) cameras within ±1.1 °C. This research highlights the potential of FBG sensors for reliable and precise thermal management in power electronic systems, contributing to improved performance and reliability.

Arabian Journal for Science and Engineering

Dynamic adaptive fuzzy modeling (DAFM) is a type of artificial intelligence (AI) that combines the principles of fuzzy logic and adaptive control. DAFM is used for various applications including intelligent control, signal processing, and decision-making. The main advantage of DAFM is its ability to handle systems’ complexity and nonlinearity with uncertainties. The parameters’ adaptation of DAFM represents a crucial task in the context of nonlinear fuzzy model element identification. In addition, its number increases depending on the number of membership functions used. So, in this paper, the DAFM membership functions’ adaptation is introduced based on different tuning approaches, which are gradient descent (GD), and evolutionary algorithms (EAs). The evolutionary optimization algorithms contain Genetic algorithm (GA), differential evolution (DE), and particle swarm optimization (PSO). A comparative study between the mentioned approaches has been applied to estimate the models of two systems, a simulated system and a practical model of a liquid-level rig. The simulation results provide a good identification process. Furthermore, the PSO technique provides results in perfect tracking, high accuracy, fast convergence, and low computational time. For instance, after a change occurred in the input, the PSO-based tracking converged twice as fast as DE and four times faster than GA.

IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications

Fossil-based generators are phasing out in favor of Renewable-Based Sources (RESs), impacting the generation mix and causing low inertia levels. In this regard, this paper presents a static output feedback H based virtual synchronous generator to regulate the frequency of low inertial microgrids dominated by inertia-less (RESs). The control strategy addresses the uncertainty of power system inertia, stochasticity of RESs, and demand volatility. Also, the proposed static H∞ replaces the dynamic H control that normally entails complexity and impracticality. Previous development on dynamic H control, which entails complexity and impracticality, is replaced by a simple and static H counterpart that achieves the same control objectives, offering seamless implementation and minimal computational burden. Using Lyapunov theories and Linear Matrix Inequalities, the dynamics of the microgrids are transformed into a set of uncertain polytopic systems. A convex optimization model is developed to tune the controller that optimizes microgrid operation over the entire uncertain region. A multi-step verification method on a realistic testbed comprising conventional and RES-based units showcases the robustness of the control design against extreme grid disruptions and multiple RES injections. Conducting a Real-time simulation with RTDS technologies to validate the control design concludes the paper.

Extensive research has been conducted on protecting alternating current (AC) power systems, resulting in many sophisticated protection methods and schemes. On the other hand, the natural characteristics of direct current (DC) systems pose many challenges in designing a proper protection scheme for DC microgrids (DC-MG). This paper highlights the significant challenges facing the design of effective protection methods for DC microgrids. Furthermore, several technologies and techniques presented in the literature to overcome the challenges associated with DC microgrid protection are presented in this paper. These methods are comprehensively and comparatively analyzed. In addition, some potential issues of DC microgrid protection that need further investigation in future research are highlighted.

... Applications in fluid dynamics [21], robotics [22] and control systems [23] have all been investigated. Whilst the utilization of Koopman in order to develop linear systems capable of control has been researched heavily, with many models including optimal controls [24], Model Predictive Controllers (MPC) [25], Linear Quadratic Controllers (LQR) [26], all being successfully developed through the implementation of EDMD with control (EDMDc) [27] via analytical solutions or the development of NN's. Another advantage of using a data-driven method is that it does not require system knowledge, and the nonlinear system can be completely unknown [28,29]. ...

... Direct current microgrids work with two-wire cables, but AC microgrids work with three-or four-wire cables. In the DCmicrogrid, there is no reactive power flow and voltage control depends only on active power flow [74,75]. Reactive energy flow controls the voltage in an AC-microgrid, and active power injection is typically used to limit the power available in a specific area [76,77]. ...

... The energy output for wind power fluctuates with wind speed at different heights, which could be a disadvantage if the area/specific height does not have that much wind blowing or if wind speed timing is not known. In addition, such a lack of knowledge creates operational challenges for the power system operators [5]. Therefore, effective wind speed forecasting can be a game changer in tackling the mentioned challenges by better-utilizing wind energy resources. ...
