Chapter 1, Problem 16P
Figure Pl.5 shows the topology of a photo-voltaic (PV) system that uses solar cells to supply electrical power to a residence with hybrid electnc vehicle toads (Gurkavnak. 2009). The system consists of a PV array to collect the sun's rays, a battery pack to store energy during the day. a dc/ac inverter to supply ac power to the load, and a bidirectional dc/dc converter to control the terminal voltage of the solar array according to a maxunum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm. In case of sufficient solar power (solar insolation), the dc/dc converter charges die battery and die solar array supplies power to the load through the dc/ac inverter. Widi less or no solar energy (solar non-insolation). power is supplied from the battery to the load through the dc/dc converter and die dc/ac inverter. Thus, the dc/dc converter must be bidirectional to be able to charge and discharge the batlery. With the MPPT controller providing the reference voltage, the converter operates as a step-up converter (boost) to discharge the battery if the battery is full or a step-down (buck) converter, which charges die batlery if it is not full.7
In Figure Pl.5, the Inverter is controlled by die Power Manager and Controller through the Current Controller. The Power Manager and Controller directs the Inverter to take power either from the battery, via the Bidirectional Converter, or the solar array.
of charge (SOC). Draw the follow ing two functional block diagrams for this system:
- A diagram that illustrates the conversion of solar irradiation into energy stored in the battery. In that diagram, the input is the solar irradiance. r(t), and the output is the battery voltage. Vb(t).
- The main diagram, in w hich the input is the desired output voltage. Vr(t) and the output is the actual inverter output voltage, Vo(t) Both of these functional block diagrams should show their major components, including the PV array, MPPT controller, dc/dc converter, battery pack, dc/ac inverter, current controller, and the Power Manager and Controller. Show all signals, including intermediate voltages and currents, time of day. and the SOC of the battery.

At 250C, the interfacial tension between water and n – octyl alcohol is 8.50 dyne/cm. if the surface tension of n-octyl is 27.53 dyne/cm and that of the water is 72.75 dyne/cm, predict whether water spreads on the alcohol by calculating a) Work of cohesion of n-octyl b) Work of adhesion and c) the spreading coefficient of water on the alcohol. Will alcohol spread on water?
Steam is being transported in a pipe at a chemical production facility in Gebze, Kocaeli. Theouter diameter of the pipe is 8 cm, and the surrounding air temperature is 20 °C. On the surface of thepipe, the combined heat transfer coefficient is 35 W/m2*K. The surface temperature of the pipe is 150 °C.Steady-state conditions exist.(a) What is the rate of heat loss from the pipe to the surroundings?(b) The power used to generate the steam is obtained from natural gas. Perform an online search forapproximate values of the calorific value of natural gas, as well as the cost of natural gas per cubicmeter, and estimate the financial loss due to heat loss from this steam pipe within a period of oneyear. Indicate your sources clearly in your answer.

- Geochemical Box Models - please use same terminology found in question Consider an element X exchanging between two geochemical reservoirs A and B. Let MA and MB be the masses of X in reservoirs A and B, respectively; let tA and tB be the residence times of X in reservoirs A and B, respectively. Further let M = MA + MB be the total mass of X in the two reservoirs combined. Consider a situation where additional mass M' is injected into reservoir A at time t=0 increasing the total amount of element X in the system from M0 to M1, with no further injection at later times; further assume that tA >> tB, that the total mass in the altered system is M1 = M0 + M', and that M0 << M'. Give an expression for MB(t) as a function of M1, tA, tB, and t. What is the characteristic time for MB to approach steady state?

- Citrus trees are very susceptible to cold weather, and extended exposure to subfreezing temperatures can destroy the crop. In order to protect the trees from occasional cold fronts with subfreezing temperatures, tree growers in Florida usu ally install water sprinklers on the trees. When the temperature drops below a certain level, the sprinklers spray water on the trees and their fruits to protect them against the damage the subfreezing temperatures can cause. Explain the basic mecha nism behind this protection measure and write an essay on how the system works in practice.arrow_forwardcan you please show me how we can determine the freedom degree of systems ? like these in the picure please I want step by step how we determine that !arrow_forwardPlease show with steps principle of superpositionarrow_forward
