Because of environmental factors and sustainability concerns, renewable energy sources are the state-of-art today. In energy conversion it is important, the output of the system to be suitable with standard applications, for both economical and compatibility issues. To fit the system output voltage and frequency with the international standards, battery packs and transformers are widely used. For modularity the major problem in this area is large physical dimensions. In this study a high frequency multi-winding transformer is used to reduce the size. Also a simple multi-level inverter which has fewer switching elements is proposed by taking account the same concern. And calculation of switching angles for the multilevel inverter is handled by a trigonometric method in order to reduce output harmonics.

A METHOD FOR TECHNICAL ECONOMIC-ANALYSIS OF SOLAR HEATING-SYSTEMS
TASDEMIROGLU, E; ARINC, F (Elsevier BV, 1988-01-01)
The necessity for technical-economic analysis of solar energy systems is obvious when assessing their feasibility vis-á-vis conventional alternative systems. Optimum magnitudes of the installation parameters should be defined under the required economic conditions. In this study, the optimization procedure was chosen so as to maximize the total accumulated saving throughout the economic lifetime of the system. The annual solar heating fraction of the system is assessed using the f-chart method which can be ...
Modeling binary CO2/CH4 flow through coal media
Gumrah, F.; Balan, H. O.; Atay, M. U. (Informa UK Limited, 2008-01-01)
CO2 can be sequestered in coal seams considering the environmental issues. By means of injecting CO2 into the coal seams, both sequestration of CO2 and the enhanced recovery of methane inside the coal seam can be realized. One-dimensional simulation regarding the binary CO2/CH4 flow in a coal seam core was studied by using an analytical solution method. The simulation results were compared with experimental data by matching the effluent concentrations of CO2 and CH4. The transport parameters such as longitu...
Overcoming problems in Turkey's renewable energy policy: How can EU contribute?
Sirin, Selahattin Murat; Ege, Aylin (2012-09-01)
Fossil fuels cover most of the energy demand in the world, and this creates significant social, economic and environmental problems. Many countries have taken measures to increase the share of renewable energy sources (RES), especially in electricity generation, and the review of literature shows that the success of a country in RES diffusion depends on a comprehensive renewable energy policy which combines political commitment with stable and long-term support measures that stimulate technological innovati...
A techno-economic feasibility study of a gridconnected hybrid solar pv-wind power generation system in Zimbabwe
Samu, Remember; Fahrioğlu, Murat; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2019-1)
The depletion of fossil fuel resources on a worldwide basis and an increase in greenhouse gas emissions and climate change as a whole have caused an urgent search for alternative sustainable energy sources to cater for the rising energy demands. The demand of energy is rapidly growing in both developing and developed nations thus making hybrid renewable energy power systems (RES), comprising Solar Photovoltaic (PV) and wind energy to be chosen as one of the best alternatives. However, on the downside, these...
GIS-based site selection methodology for hybrid renewable energy systems: A case study from western Turkey
Aydin, Nazli Yonca; Kentel Erdoğan, Elçin; Duzgun, H. Sebnem (Elsevier BV, 2013-06-01)
Renewable energy sources are presently being considered as alternatives to fossil fuels, because they are perpetual, environmentally friendly, and release negligible amounts of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere while producing energy. A disadvantage of renewable energy systems, however, is that continuous energy generation is not possible by using only one type of renewable energy system, since renewable energy resources depend on climate and weather conditions. Two or more renewable energy systems can be ...
