It is anticipated that with the thrust towards use of clean energy resources such as electric vehicles, future distribution grids will face a steep increase in power demand, forcing the utility operators to invest in enhancing the power delivering capacity of the grid infrastructure. It is identified that the critical 5–20km medium voltage (MV) underground ac distribution cable link, responsible for...
Refurbishing existing ac distribution cables to operate under dc conditions can offer several advantages in terms of capacity enhancement, efficiency and flexibility in power and voltage control, among others. In this paper, technical aspects such as insulation ageing, capacity and efficiency enhancement are explored. A novel idea of dynamic cable voltage rating based on the temperature dependent...
Dielectric Elastomers are well known for there performance as actuators, but these materials can be used effectively as generators. Research on this field have received considerable attention lately, several prototypes were built like wavepower and human kinetic power generators. The focus of this paper is how the dielectric elastomer can be used as generator. The paper presents a dynamic model to...
