Analysis of Power Quality Problems on Nigerian 330 KV Power System Using Statcom with Voltage Sensitivity Index | Chapter 2 | Theory and Applications of Engineering Research Vol. 1

 In this study the cohesion of Nigerian transmission scheme during possibility (sag) was determined and appropriate placement of Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) in method load buses where sag strength occur was accomplished as to defeat the Power Quality (PQ) problems emerging from habit of non-linear loads from the users which have negative impacts on the movement of the power arrangement. Thus, this research analyzed the PQ question on Nigerian 330 kV, 28-bus system. The Newton-Raphson (NR) repetitive approach was utilized to act load flow analysis on Nigerian 28-transport transmission methods. The STATCOM power dose model was then used to modify the NR numerical model. The optimal installation of the STATCOM in the system was raise using the Voltage Sensitivity Index (VSI), and imitation was performed in MATLAB/SIMULINK. According to the findings, highest in rank locations for the STATCOM boss in the power whole were buses 5, 8, 12, and 16.  The corresponding STATCOM sensitive power, sag power and sag duration for buses 5, 8, 12 and 16 were 72.56 MVar, 0.77454 p.u, 0.7336s; 65.35 Mvar, 0.7464 p.u,  0.7419 s; 50.86 Mvar, 0.7615 p.u, 0.6512 s and  53.75 MVar, 0.7442 p.u. 0.5972 s, respectively. As a result, the verdicts have demonstrated the meaning of STATCOM with VSI in judgment appropriate solutions for PQ issues in energetic power systems.

Study on Increasing the Solar Cell Efficiency by Using Glass Balls | Chapter 9 | Current Approaches in Science and Technology Research Vol. 11

 Due to changes in the sun angle of projection during the day, solar cells lose a significant portion of their capacity due to insufficient solar energy. A cell panel converts solar energy into electrical energy, which is known as Photo Voltage (PV). These cells are created utilising P-N dipole technology and a variety of semiconductor materials. Thus, the goal of this study is to improve cell efficiency using a novel method that involves gathering rays in a convex focus and dispersing them in a concave lens, resulting in rays that are always perpendicular to the cells. Glass balls with a diameter of 10 mm were employed and positioned on the cell area to achieve this goal. This research discovered a significant increase in cell efficiency, with an estimated 7.53 percent increase in generating voltage and 1.086 percent increase in current using this unique method.
