  • A floating photovoltaic generation system is a new concept that combines existing photovoltaic generation technology with floating technology. This is installed in the water not on conventional land and a building. The system is designed as a unit module type that can be connected to other modules according to the power generation capacity, thereby forming a large-scale power generation facility. As a renewable energy source, it is composed of a floating structure, mooring device, photovoltaic power generation facility, and underwater cable. Because this system is installed outdoors, the effect of the wind load on the structure is very large. In this study, the wind loads most affected on the floating photovoltaic generation structure were obtained by computational fluid dynamic analysis. The flow characteristics and wind loads were analyzed for a range of wind orientations and angles of inclination. The analysis showed the position and magnitude of the maximum wind load to the wind direction and the flow characteristics around the solar panel and floating system. The wind load increased with increasing angle of inclination of the panel to the ground.

  • In this paper, we propose a prototype platform combined with the power management system using, as an auxiliary power storage device, a supercapacitor that can be fast charged and discharged with high power efficiency as well as semi-permanent charge and discharge cycle life. For the proposed platform, we designed a technique which is capable of detecting the state of power cutoff or resumption of power supplied from the solar panel in accordance with physical environment changes through an interrupt attached to the micro-controller was developed. To prevent data loss in a computing environment in which continuous power supply is not guaranteed, we implemented a low-level system software in the micro-controller to transfer program context and data in volatile memory to nonvolatile memory when power supply is cut off. Experimental results shows that supercapacitors effectively supply temporary power as auxiliary power storage devices. Various benchmarks also confirm that power state detection and transfer of program context and data from volatile memory to nonvolatile memory have low overhead.

  • The main objective of this paper is to design DC-DC MPPT circuit using chaotic pulse width modulation to track maximum power from solar PV module for space application. The direct control method of tracking is used to extract maximum power. The nominal duty cycle of the main switch of DC-DC SEPIC converter is adjusted so that the solar panel output impedance is equal to the input resistance of the SEPIC converter which results better spectral performance in the tracked voltages when compared to conventional PWM control. The conversion efficiency of the proposed MPPT system is increased when CPWM is used as a control scheme

  • There has been a significant growth in global population and industrialization, as a consequence demand for electricity is increasing rapidly and the power systems need to increase the electricity generation. Currently, most of generated electricity is generated from fossil fuels. However, there are many financial and environmental concerns associated with the generation of electricity from such resource. Photovoltaic )PV) solar as a renewable resource is promising. The power output of PV systems is mainly affected by the solar irradiation and ambient temperature. This paper attempts at reducing the burden and improving the accuracy of the extensive simulations related to integrating PV systems into the electrical grid.

  • Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) under partial shading condition (PSC) is a challenging process in the PV array system. The shaded PV panel makes different peak patterns on the P-V curve and misguides the MPPT algorithm. Various kinds of global MPP (GMPP) detecting algorithms are used to overcome this issue. Generally, too frequent execution of GMPP tracking algorithm reduces the achievable power of PV panel due to time spent on the scanning process. Thus, partial shading detection algorithm is essential for efficient utilization of solar energy source. While conventional method only detects fast shading patterns, the proposed algorithm always shows superb performance regardless of the speed of partial shading patterns.

  • This paper focuses on a temperature effects on a PV panel which has been installed in Thailand. The main objective is cleaning PV panels and reduce temperature of PV panel by water injects from waterway and experimental results of PV power what it is difference. This project is designed by PLC control system which water injects and control PV temperature, In addition, this project consists of hardware and software such as water pump, water injection and PLC control has been automatically and it can be control system manually. The automatic control system is working when PV temperature rises up over 45 degree Celsius after that the pumping machine would inject water to the surface of PV panels and it must be stop when the PV panel temperature comes down less than 45 degree Celsius. The result of actual experimental found that the control system has been done correctly under specify condition. The experimental has been shown electrical data before and after water injects on PV system found that the electrical power a bit increases and The energy has been taken from PV panel less than energy consumption equipment of control system which taken to operate the water injecting system.

  • In this paper, material handing cleanroom stocker system for thin film solar cell line of photovoltaic industry and liquid crystal display line of flat panel display industry was selected for the study. Optimum solution for stocker system's CPS(Contactless Power Supply) is approached by changing the motion pattern, optimizing design & production, and analyzing characteristics of the power system. As a result, acceleration time of X-Axis changed from 3 sec to 4 sec, changed the input characteristic of CPS within approximately 11[kW]. This result shows that extending acceleration time of the X-Axis in Stocker Crane's motion pattern can reduce the capacity of the CPS, thus saving the manufacturing cost.

  • Perimeter zone is one of the weakest area in buildings and it makes an increase of heating and cooling loads, in addition to condensation or discomfort with cold-draft to residents in winter. Because of this, it needs to be reinforced by active systems. However, they use fossil fuel, and ultimately greenhouse effect is urged. Thus, we proposed BIPV system functioned as solar collector which can substitute active system. As an fundamental stage, heat balance equation in steady-state by Fortran was used not only, in winter for pre-heating effect and electric power capacity during the day, but also in summer, for the latter during the day and sky radiation effect during the night. Especially, we should have considered shading on PV by IES Suncast, since even a little bit of it makes the efficiency too low for the PV modules to work. As a result, in summer day, the PV panel should be tiled in 70 degrees to gain the most electric power. Moreover, we could verify that this model makes higher temperature and heat flux under 0.02 m/s. On the other hand, the PV had the high efficiency with high velocity because of cooling effect behind the PV. Therefore, we should regard the air current distribution later on.
