Öğe A Comprehensive Research on Ensuring Energy Efficiency in Rail Systems(Kırıkkale Üniversitesi, 2024) Arıkan, Yağmur; Akkaş, Özge Pinar; Çam, ErtuğrulToday, the increase in energy needs and the risk of depletion of some energy resources is a worrying situation for sustainable life. Therefore, energy efficiency and prevention of energy losses are crucial. Transportation is one of the sectors where energy is used most intensively. As in every field, it is aimed to prevent the excessive use of energy in this sector. One of the most important activities in this regard is to encourage public transportation, and in this sense, rail systems are frequently preferred in big cities. However, their energy consumption is increasing due to the increasingly widespread network structure of these systems. Therefore, energy efficiency studies on these systems have a significant impact on clean and sustainable life and attract the attention of researchers. Energy efficiency studies in rail systems show a wide variety due to their complicated structure. In this paper, the concepts of energy consumption and efficiency in rail systems, studies on this subject in the literature and the technologies and methods used have been examined. The outputs of the paper have been evaluated in terms of energy efficiency and an assessment have been made for the future.Öğe Actual-time modeling of a subway vehicle and optimal driving management with GA and ABC algorithms(Academic Publication Council, 2022) Arıkan, Yağmur; Şen, Tolga; Çam, ErtuğrulThe optimization of operations of subway systems has critical importance in terms of energy efficiency and costs. Therefore, driving management of subway vehicles has been gaining more importance day by day. Optimal Driving Management (ODM) is the optimization of the velocity trajectory of a subway vehicle by considering operating conditions and travel time. In this study, the driving of a subway vehicle has been modeled dynamically with all parameters that affect driving. So, a realistic model has been prepared. Then, a new objective function has been proposed to reduce energy consumption by using the subway vehicle's acceleration and braking forces parameters for ODM. The Artificial Bee Colony algorithm (ABC) and Genetic algorithm (GA) have been used on the prepared model to determine the driving dynamics of the subway vehicle. The performance of the algorithms has been evaluated in the real line network, which has multiple stations with different characteristics. The energy consumption has been reduced by 10.47% in GA and 8.92% in ABC compared to the actual driving values. Moreover, the results of the study have been analyzed in terms of passenger comfort, cost, and emission values.Öğe An adaptive control application in a large thermal combined power plant(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2007) Kocaarslan, İlhan; Çam, ErtuğrulIn this paper, an adaptive controller was applied to a 765 MW large thermal power plant to decrease operating costs, increase quality of generated electricity and satisfy environmental concerns. Since power plants may present several operating problems such as disturbances and severe effects at operating points, design of their controllers needs to be carried out adequately. For these reasons, first, a reduced mathematical model was developed under Computer Aided Analysis and Design Package for Control, (CADACS), so that the results of the experimental model have briefly been discussed. Second, conventional PID and adaptive controllers were designed and implemented under the real-time environment of the CADACS software. Additionally, the design of the adaptive model-reference and conventional PID controllers used in the power plant for real-time control were theoretically presented. All processes were realized in real-time. Due to safety restrictions, a direct connection to the sensors and actuators of the plant was not allowed. Insted a coupling to the control system was realized. This offers, in addition, the usage of the supervisiory functions of an industrial process computer system. Application of the controllers indicated that the proposed adaptive controller has better performances for rise and settling times of electrical power, and enthalpy outputs than the conventional PID controller does.

To start with, a network has been set up, and trained with the data set obtained from several stations-each station gather data from five different heights-from each region, one randomly selected height value of a station has been used as test data. Wind data readings corresponding to the last 50 years of relevant regions were obtained from the Turkish State Meteorological Service (TSMS). The software has been developed under Matlab 6.0. In the input layer, longitude, latitude, altitude, and height are used, while wind speeds and related power values correspond to output layer. Then we have used the networks to make predictions for varying heights, which are not incorporated to the system at the training stage. The network has successfully predicted the required output values for the test data and the mean error levels for regions differed between 3% and 6%. We believe that using ANNs average wind speed and wind power of a region can be predicted provided with lesser amount of sampling data, that the sampling mechanism is reliable and adequate.

In this paper, the common faults of a typical photovoltaic power plant that may occur in a photovoltaic module are discussed. Also, the paper studies the electrical characteristics of a photovoltaic module operating under several faults’ conditions applied on a specially designed module that measures the output current of each substring by utilizing sensitive Hall Effect sensors. After obtaining the electrical characteristics under faults, using machine learning, two decision trees classifier models are trained, the first classifier is trained to detect and recognize faults. However, this classifier may confuse the partial shading case with several other faults.

Also, a conventional integral (I), a conventional proportional and integral (PI), and a fuzzy logic (FL), controllers were used to control the same power system for the performance comparison. Two performance criteria were utulized for the comparison. First, settling times and overshoots of the frequency deviation were compared. Later, the absolute error integral analysis method was calculated to compare all the controllers. All the models were simulated by Matlab 6.0-Simulink software. The simulation results show that the FGPI controller developed in this study performs better than the other controllers with respect to the settling time and overshoot, and absolute error integral of the frequency deviation.
