This document presents a port-Hamiltonian model of a pumped-hydro storage system, using Photo Voltaic energy as the primary source. Matlab simulation results show that the model is functional under ideal conditions of constant solar radiation. It also graphically demonstrate the relationship between input solar power and the accumulation of energy at the upper reservoir.This work is a fundamental step towards a tool for the analysis and design of optimized and fully automated system.
The induction machine is used in a wide variety of applications as a means of converting electrical energy into mechanical work and vice versa. There is an increasing use of the machine configured as a generator in unconventional wind and micro-hydro energy systems. The advantages of the system range from low cost to simplicity of construction, operation, and maintenance. This work provides a generalization to the port-Hamiltonian model of a squirrel-cage induction motor based on a synchronously rotating reference frame of d-q axes. Furthermore, the port-Hamiltonian formalism is used to provide a modeling approach to a self-excited induction generator which is also deduced for the d-q stationary reference frame. The performance our modeling approach is validated via numerical simulations.
A novel energy-based modelling and control strategy is developed and implemented to solve the maximum power point tracking problem when a photovoltaic cell array is connected to consumption loads. A mathematical model that contains key characteristic parameters of an energy converter stage connected to a photovoltaic cell array is proposed and recast using the port-Hamiltonian framework. The system consists of input-output power port pairs and storage and dissipating elements. Then, a current-sensorless control loop for a maximum power point tracking is designed, acting over the energy converter stage and following an interconnection and damping assignment passivity-based strategy. The performance of the proposed strategy is compared to a (classical) sliding mode control law. Our energy-based strategy is implemented in a hardware platform with a sampling rate of 122 Hz, resulting in lower dynamic power consumption compared to other maximum power point tracking control strategies. Numerical simulations and experimental results validate the performance of the proposed energy-based modelling and the novel control law approach.
Las técnicas de medición por ensayos no destructivos han demostrado ser una poderosa herramienta en el estudio y caracterización de materiales. Este trabajo presenta el desarrollo de un sistema automatizado para la medición de la atenuación de radiación gamma en los materiales. Primero, se describe el proceso de diseño de los elementos electromecánicos y el sistema de control automático, seguido de su implementación. Los resultados muestran la capacidad y precisión mecánica obtenidas para el sistema desarrollado. En particular la resolución del motor y capacidad de recorrido del robot son respectivamente de 8 µm para el movimiento horizontal con un movimiento de hasta 54 cm bidireccional y 4 µm para el movimiento vertical con un movimiento de hasta 57 cm bidireccional. Además, el sistema permite una rotación de las muestras con un recorrido de 360° unidireccional. Se comprueba estadísticamente la sensibilidad del sistema para detectar cambios locales en el espesor del material, evaluando los periodos de muestreo para obtener una medición con precisión. Se determina el error relativo de las mediciones, analizando posibles causas y soluciones.
