Performance Degradation of Discrete PID Controller for Digital Excitation Control System Due to Variation of Sampling Time
2019
Modern digital AVR are consisting PID controller in forward path ensures fast response in the event of disturbance. Digital keypad is used for setting PID gains to improve performance of the system. Digital PID controller reads the error signal at regular interval unlike analog controller that reads the error signal continuously. Regular interval at which digital processor reads error signal is called sampling time that has substantial effect on the performance of the controller and consequently affects the stability of the power system where synchronous generator using digital excitation system is connected in parallel. This paper addresses the issues of variation of sampling time on the p…
Sustainable Energy Supply in Vietnam
2020
The steep growth of electricity demand in Vietnam (11% per year on average since 2006) calls for a deep rethinking of the Vietnamese electrical power system. Its topological structure indeed may not be well suited for a deep penetration of renewable energy sources and a predictable increase of reactive industrial loads. The Vietnamese power system is described and a few analytical methods are considered for its study both in steady state and in dynamic conditions in different scenarios. The power system simulation software Neplan is used for the implementation of the system’s model and the performing of the dynamic analysis.
Experimental investigation of low-frequency pulsed Lorentz force influence on the motion of Galinstan melt
2016
Abstract The paper presents the results of the numerical and physical experiments, aimed at assessing the influence of pulsed force of electromagnetic field on the melt motion and the fluid velocities. The experiment was performed on the eutectic alloy Galinstan in the cylindrical volume, where an ultrasonic Doppler velocimeter was employed for velocity measurements under conditions of pulsed and steady EM field application. A numerical simulation of the melt flow, forced by the steady EM force, involved a 2D axisymmetric model. The k-e turbulence model was used to obtain the information about the melt velocities. The verification of the numerical model was carried out for the steady case. …
Numerical model of turbulent CZ melt flow in the presence of AC and CUSP magnetic fields and its verification in a laboratory facility
2001
The paper describes a numerical simulation tool for heat and mass transfer processes in large diameter CZ crucibles under the influence of several non-rotating AC and CUSP magnetic fields. Such fields are expected to provide an additional means to influence the melt behaviour, particularly in the industrial growth of large diameter silicon crystals. The simulation tool is based on axisymmetric 2D models for the AC and CUSP magnetic fields in the whole CZ facility and turbulent hydrodynamics, temperature and mass transport in the melt under the influence of the electromagnetic fields. The simulation tool is verified by comparisons to experimental results from a laboratory CZ setup with eutec…
Cryogenic 35GHz pulse ENDOR probehead accommodating large sample sizes: Performance and applications.
2009
The construction and performance of a cryogenic 35GHz pulse electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) probehead for large samples is presented. The resonator is based on a rectangular TE(102) cavity in which the radio frequency (rf) B(2)-field is generated by a two turn saddle ENDOR coil crossing the resonator along the sample axis with minimal distance to the sample tube. An rf power efficiency factor is used to define the B(2)-field strength per square-root of the transmitted rf power over the frequency range 2-180MHz. The distributions of the microwave B(1)- and E(1)-field, and the rf B(2)-field are investigated by electromagnetic field calculations. All dielectrics, the sample tube, and…
An augmented MFS approach for brain activity reconstruction
2017
Abstract Weak electrical currents in the brain flow as a consequence of acquisition, processing and transmission of information by neurons, giving rise to electric and magnetic fields, which can be modeled by the quasi-stationary approximation of Maxwell’s equations. Electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) techniques allow for reconstructing the cerebral electrical currents and thus investigating the neuronal activity in the human brain in a non-invasive way. This is a typical electromagnetic inverse problem which can be addressed in two stages. In the first one a physical and geometrical representation of the head is used to find the relation between a given source mo…
Silencing and enhancement of second-harmonic generation in optical gap antennas
2012
International audience; Amplifying local electromagnetic fields by engineering optical interactions between individual constituents of an optical antenna is considered fundamental for efficient nonlinear wavelength conversion in nanometer-scale devices. In contrast to this general statement we show that high field enhancement does not necessarily lead to an optimized nonlinear activity. In particular, we demonstrate that second-harmonic responses generated at strongly interacting optical gap antennas can be significantly suppressed. Numerical simulations are confirming silencing of second-harmonic in these coupled systems despite the existence of local field amplification. We then propose a…
Generation of even harmonics of sub-THz radiation in bulk GaAs in the presence of a static electric field
2007
The static electric field effects on nonlinear carrier dynamics in low-doped GaAs bulk under the influence of an intense sub-terahertz field are studied by a three-dimensional multivalleys Monte Carlo simulation. The conversion efficiency is calculated by using the appropriate Maxwell equation for the propagation of an electromagnetic wave along a given direction in the medium. Production of odd and even harmonics due to the nonlinearity of the velocity-field relation is investigated.
Computational modeling of isotropic electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of doublet state main group radicals
2007
The combined use of theoretical and mathematical methods in the analysis of electron paramagnetic resonance data has greatly increased the ability to interpret even the most complex spectra reported for doublet state inorganic main group radicals. This personal account summarizes the theoretical basis of such an approach and provides an in-depth discussion of some recent illustrative examples of the utilization of this methodology in practical applications. The emphasis is on displaying the enormous potential embodied within the approach. peerReviewed
Inquiry-Based Approach and Numerical Simulations: A Powerful Integration in Condensed Matter Physics Education
2020
In this chapter, we present and discuss two inquiry-based learning paths on condensed matter physics topics in which numerical simulations play a relevant role. The first one addresses the study of the electron transport dynamics via simulative explorations in 3D semiconductors. His emphasis is not on student modelling skills, but rather on a chain of reasoned investigations performed within a learning environment aimed at supporting a valuable understanding of the physics concepts underlying the complex world of semiconductor electronics. The second learning path is a 5E-cycle-based workshop of advanced physics targeted to strengthen student’s understanding of the various aspects of the Ha…
