Fuel cell and microturbine based distributed generation (DG) system are one of the promising source due to their operating efficiency, reliability and power quality. Thus, the selection of their operation is essential to obtain the maximum efficiency of two individual sources. In this paper, the genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm has been used for the efficiency...
The free piston linear generator is a new range-extender technology. It converts chemical energy into electrical energy by means of a combustion process and linear generator. Thereby the technology aims to have better properties than other range extenders. Therefore this publication deals with the explanation of the concept and the characteristics of a free piston linear generator and a comparison...
The electric revolution of mobility has left the cradle and is expected to breach the barrier of mass scale commercialisations within the next 3–5 years. To achieve that goal, the issue of range must be resolved. Especially plugin hybrid vehicles address this topic with a combination of batteries and a range extender. Range extender technologies hold a large market potential for the coming years and...
This paper describes a proposed distributed generation scheme employing a microturbine driving a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). The ac power generated from the PMSG is rectified and, along with a Fuel Cell, is connected to the dc-link together with a battery bank. A PWM inverter delivers ac power to the load. The dynamic and steady state models of the distributed generation scheme...
The fuel cell/gas-turbine hybrid power systems can utilize exhaust fuel and waste heat from fuel cells to increase the system efficiency. This paper considers an internally reforming solid oxide fuel cell/gas turbine (SOFC/GT) hybrid system, where the anode exhaust, which contains the remainder of the fuel, is mixed with the cathode exhaust as well as an additional supply of fuel and compressed air...
