Electric motors are utilitarian devices of great potential as they can limit the amount of pollution by drastically reducing the release of harmful gases. The implementation of the right type of advanced materials plays a vital role in the amelioration of modern automobiles while maintaining and/or improving the performance and efficiency of the electric motor. The use of lightweight materials could result in a better-performing vehicle that can be much less heavy. The replacement of regular cast iron, steel, and aluminum with lightweight materials such as fiber-reinforced polymer, carbon fiber, and polymer composites can reduce the weight of the motor without impacting its performance and improve its energy-saving capacity. This paper explores a way to reduce motor weight by employing a PA6GF30 30% glass fiber-reinforced polymer casing to reduce the weight of the motor while making cooling system modifications. This material was applied to the motor casing, which resulted in a significant reduction in weight compared to the water-cooled electric motor of aluminum (Alloy 195 cast) casing.
The utilization of renewable energy sources aids in the economic development of a country. Among the various renewable energy sources, wind energy is more effective for electricity production. The doubly fed induction generator is an extensively known wind turbine generator for its partially rated power converters and dynamic performance. The doubly fed induction generator assists the wind turbine to function with a wide speed range. Hence, the steady-state performance analysis of a doubly fed induction generator helps enable it to operate efficiently at a specific wind turbine speed. In this paper, a 2 MW variable speed pitch regulated doubly fed induction generator with a speed range of 900—2000 rpm was opted for steady-state analysis. This was followed by the design and modelling of a doubly fed induction generator in Matlab/Simulink environment, and the analyses were performed using mathematical equations computed via Matlab coding. The steady-state magnitudes were calculated with rotor magnetization idr = 0. The closed-loop stator flux-oriented vector control is applied to the rotor side converter for controlling the designed doubly fed induction generator model. The simulation results were compared with computational values to establish a workable model with less than 10% error. The simulation model can be used for predicting the performance of the machine, fault analysis, and validation of existing DFIG at a steady state.
Wireless communication systems have gained huge attraction from research community, industrial, and academic field due to their significant impact on improving the communication efficiency, ease of deployment, and costeffective solution for real-time communication. In this field of wireless communication, cellular communications have grown rapidly due to their daily usages and advantages. This increased demand of cellular communication systems has led to the evolution of 3G, 4G, and 5G communication systems, which in turn demands for higher efficiency and better bandwidth utilization. Due to heavy usage of network communication, multiple users may cause interference which subsequently may lead to the performance degradation which could be addressed using multiuser detection scheme. However, several schemes have been introduced for improving the system performance, but multiple access (MA) still remains a challenging task. Hence, in this work, we present a novel approach called Spatial Log-Likelihood Multiuser Detection and Interference Cancelation (SLLR-MDIC) that uses interleaving division multiple access (IDMA) to improve the communication and developed a multiuser detection approach using spatial log-likelihood ratios. Further, we have developed orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDM)-IDMA-based interference cancelation scheme in multiple access to improve the performance using rake receiver based approach. The performance of SLLR-MDIC scheme is compared with existing techniques of multiuser detection in terms of biterror rate (BER) and symbol error rate (SER). The experimental analysis shows that proposed approach achieves improved performance when compared with existing techniques.
