This paper presents an integrated design process that combines theoretical analysis and heuristic verification to develop the magnetic components of a commercial 2.5-kW bidirectional charging system for a vanadium flow battery. The design process aims to fulfill a rigid set of electrical, mechanical, and thermal requirements for the battery charger. The design has been verified using simulation and...
As penetration levels of PV Distributed Generation (DG) continue to increase into Low Voltage distribution feeders, electrical utility companies are finding that traditional strategies for managing the voltage profile along these feeders are becoming less effective because of the bidirectional variations in real power flow that are caused by these PV systems. Various strategies have been proposed...
One essential requirement for a modern Smart Grid is continuous monitoring of the grid variables. This task is efficiently achieved using self-powered electronic devices deployed throughout the grid network. Within the vicinity of the grid power lines, the high voltages of these lines can provide a source of energy for such loads using capacitive coupling. This is known as Electric-Field Energy Harvesting...
While Australia's current electricity generation is primarily based on its vast coal and gas fossil fuel reserves, it is also rich in solar and wind renewable energy resources. If these energy sources can be used to replace fossil fuel to generate electricity, Australia's contribution to worldwide greenhouse gas emissions would be substantially reduced. However, a primarily renewable electrical generation...
