Development of 3kW Hybrid ESS with Function of Emergency Power Supply

This paper proposes a high-efficiency 3-kW hybrid ESS with emergency power supply. The proposed system enables efficient use of power from photovoltaic (PV) cells and energy storage system (ESS). The proposed system can operate as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) when grid fault occurs, providing seamless transfer from grid-connected mode to stand-alone mode. The LLC converter for PV achieves ZVS turn-on of switches and ZCS turn-off of diodes, and the isolated bidirectional DC-DC converter for ESS achieves ZCS turn-off regardless of load condition, resulting in high efficiency. The efficiency and performance of the proposed hybrid ESS has been verified by a 3-kW prototype.

Abstract—An accurate and fast transient calorimetric
ferrite core-loss measurement method is proposed in
this paper. In contrast to electrical measurements, the
accuracy of the calorimetric approach is independent
of the magnetic excitation and operating frequency.
However, an accurate value of the thermal capacitance
of the Core Under Test (CUT) is required, which can be
achieved, e.g., by measuring the specific heat capacity
of the measured core material using a Differential
Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) or by using the CUT as a DC
electric conductor and measuring its thermal response
for known Joule heating. The proposed method is tested
experimentally and compared successfully to a state-ofthe-
art electrical loss measurement method on MnZn
ferrite cores.

ABSTRACT
CubeSats, miniature satellites, are playing an increasingly larger role in space exploration,
technology demonstrations, scientific research and educational investigations. These miniature
satellites provide a low-cost platform for various missions, including planetary space exploration;
Earth observation; fundamental Earth and space science; and technology demonstrations such
as cutting-edge laser communications, energy storage, in-space propulsion and autonomous
movement capabilities. They also allow educators an inexpensive means to engage students in
all phases of satellite development, operation and exploitation through real-world, hands-on
research and development experience. There has been a rising emergence of researchers, universities and professional institutions constituting towards the development and launching of
these CubeSats.
CubeSat is a generic term for a miniature satellite which is designed using commercial offthe-shelf components for development of its electronics framework [1] which capcitates anyone
to build a satellite. A CubeSat has a volume of 1 liter, which translates into a cube having a
10 cm edge. A typical CubeSat weighs approximately 1 kilogram. The most remarkable feature
of such satellites is the simplified development cycle; the use of off-the-shelf hardware and easy
access to software resources has led to rapid rise in the number of the CubeSats deployed. They
provide an economic approach for academia to contribute towards space research. CubeSats are
highly modular and can be used to form larger satellites. The electrical system of a CubeSat
is driven by the EPS, the powerhouse of the CubeSat. It is responsible for powering the various components of the CubeSat which includes the control unit, servo mechanisms, scientific
equipment and communication modules.

Abstract
Renewable Energy Sources (RES) showed enormous growth in the last few years. In comparison with the other RES, solar power has become the most feasible source because of its unique properties such as clean, noiseless, eco-friendly nature, etc. During the extraction of electric power, the DC–DC converters were given the prominent interest because of their extensive use in various applications. Photovoltaic (PV) systems generally suffer from less energy conversion efficiency along with improper stability and intermittent properties. Hence, there is a necessity of the Maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm to ensure the maximum power available that can be harnessed from the solar PV. In this paper, the most important features of the DC/DC converters along with the MPPT techniques are reviewed and analyzed. A detailed comprehensive analysis is made on different converter topologies of both non-isolated and isolated DC/DC converters. Then, the modulation strategies, comparative performance evaluation are addressed systematically. At the end, recent advances and future trends are described briefly and considered for the next-generation converter’s design and applications. This review work will provide a useful structure and reference point on the DC/DC converters for researchers and designers working in the field of solar PV applications.
