This paper presents a method to design and enhance the performance of speed governors for aged Hydroelectric Power Plants (HEPP) utilizing limited number of online site tests. First, the mathematical model for the governor is generated using plant parameters. Afterwards, the aging and backlash effects are added to the model in order to match the simulation outputs with the site measurements. The feed forward and Ziegler-Nichols (ZN) methods are examined in order to mitigate the impact of backlash. Between these methods the former one is selected since it also provides island-mode stability. The updated speed governor is applied to Gezende HEPP governor and performance progress is observed.

A low cost, large area light soaking and testing station Ogulgönen, Celal Güvenç; Kincai, Serkan (2015-04-29) Test stations for accelerated aging tests are crucial in the development of commercial solar panel manufacturing technologies. Such test-beds must provide a reasonably uniform flux whose spectral distribution is an acceptable match to the solar spectrum. This work outlines the detailed design on a low cost test system based on metal-halide lamps that can deliver a simulated solar flux of up to 3 suns on a 100 cm by 100 cm square area with an intensity variation of around 15%. A total of 9 metal-halide lamps...
An electromagnetic micro energy harvester based on an array of parylene cantilevers Sari, Ibrahim; Balkan, Raif Tuna; Külah, Haluk (IOP Publishing, 2009-10-01) This paper presents the design, optimization and implementation of an electromagnetic type vibration-to-electrical micro energy harvester. The proposed harvester implements a new design employing array of parylene cantilevers on which planar gold coils are fabricated. The micro harvester generates voltage by virtue of the relative motion between the coils and a stationary magnet. The coils are connected electrically in series to sum up the voltage output from individual cantilevers. The number of cantilever...
A fully integrated autonomous power management system with high power capacity and novel MPPT for thermoelectric energy harvesters in IoT/wearable applications Tabrizi, Hamed Osouli; Jayaweera, H. M. P. C.; Muhtaroglu, Ali (2017-11-17) This paper reports a fully integrated autonomous power management system for thermoelectric energy harvesting with application in batteryless IoT/Wearable devices. The novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm does not require open circuit voltage measurement. The proposed system delivers 0.5 mA current with 1 V regulated output based on simulations, which is the highest output current for a fully integrated converter reported in the literature for ultra-low voltage applications, to the best knowl...
A CAD environnnent for digital filters using a VerilogHDL based functional bit-serial compiler Akın, Tayfun (1998-12-16) This paper reports the development of a highly integrated CAD environment for area efficient implementation of digital filters using commercially available CAD tools. The environment establishes a plain interface between CADENCE (an IC design framework), MATLAB (a mathematical computation tool), and BITMAP (a new custom-developed filter compiler). The new compiler allows the functional description of the target filter in the Verilog hardware description language (VerilogHDL), generating technology independe...
A MULTISCALE MODELING APPROACH TO UNDERSTAND MECHANISM OF DEPOSIT CONTROL BY LUBRICANT DETERGENTS AND DISPERSANTS Kan, Esra; Yıldırım, Erol; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2022-7-29) With the recent developments in high performance computing power, molecular modeling calculations to design and improve new generation additives for engine oils have reached a level that can support and guide experimental results. Control of insoluble nanoparticle aggregations in oil and on the engine pistons is the most important key performance parameter for lubricant oil additives. General consensus about the mechanism of deposit build-up is the self-aggregation of nanosized insoluble structures. Deterge...
