An interleaved multi-phase converter with coupled inductor can achieve high power density and high efficiency, and is an effective approach for high power applications. However, a number of phases also results in the fact that component counts are increased. In this paper, the downsizing performances when the number of phase change in a multi-phase DC-DC converter with 2-phase coupled inductor cell...
Compact heat exchangers are the devices that allow having larger surface area density which is provided by the enlargement of the fins. Frequently plate fins are chosen to achieve this and several forms of this fin types are used in several applications such as rectangular plain fin offset strip fin, wavy fin, louvered and perforated fins. In this particular work, the effect of the fins on the performance...
For a high penetration of intermittent renewable energy sources, they may cause transmission-line congestion problems in power systems. In particular, among the current forecasting methodologies for renewable generation, an extremely large (but rare) forecasting error in the renewable generation inevitably occurs. In a previous paper, the authors developed a line current variation model to represent...
This paper reports on the performance improvement of the solar water heater (SWH) system through the incorporation of transparent nanomaterial called Fluorine doped Tin Oxide (FTO). Two identical solar water heaters were developed in order to study their performance. One system used normal glass while the other one used special glass. Thermocouples were installed in the inlet and the outlet for each...
