A Comprehensive Review on Smart Grid Ecosystem

A smart grid is an intervention technology for the massive energy demand of the world today. It combines cyber-physical technologies, information communication technology, and electrical power networks from the generating company stations to the end-users while ensuring bidirectional communication among the actors. The smart grid is a complex growing technology that is yet to reach its maturity state. This paper seeks to examine the literature on the state of the art of smart grid technology ...

A Comprehensive Review on Recent MPPT of a Solar PV Systems using Intelligent, Non-Intelligent Hybrid based Tech

The uncertainty associated with modelling and performance of solar photovoltaic systems could be easily and efficiently solved by using Maximum power point techniques. During the past decade of 2010 to 2021, the classification of techniques based on intelligent, non- intelligent and their hybrid models are found as potential techniques for detecting the maximum power point of a photovoltaic system. In addition, for this decade there is no extensive and comprehensive review on applicability of...

A Comprehensive Review of Artificial Neural Network Techniques Used for Smart Meter-Embedded forecasting System

The recent developments in computational science and smart metering have led to a gradual replacement of the traditional load forecasting methods by artificial intelligent (AI) technology. The smart meters for residential buildings have become available on the market, and since then, various studies on load forecasting have been published. Contingency planning, load shedding, management strategies and commercialization strategies are all influenced by load forecasts. Predicting a lower load t...

APPLICATION OF VIBRATION TECHNIQUE FOR THE CONTROL OF SPROUTING IN YAM (Dioscorea spp.) DURING STORAGE

Early sprouting of yam tuber is a typical problem during storage resulting into weight losses, deterioration, shrinkage and reduction in quality. This study investigated the application of vibration technique to control sprouting in yam tubers during storage. A mechanical yam vibrator having adjustable frequencies and amplitudes was developed with vibrating chamber of capacity size of 670 × 570 × 180 mm3 which can contain four tubers of yam at a time. The physical properties (length, n...

Improvement on Concurrency Control in a Distributed Database

ABSTRACT  The study was conducted of the Improvement on concurrency control in a distributed database. The objectives of the study are to ensure consistent and correct transaction, efficient data collection and management and recoverability of data in a distributed database. The Mysql relational database was employed in collecting data for concurrency control protocols. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) was used in creating the use case, sequence diagram, class diagram and contract for the...

Performance Analysis of Frame Aggregation Based IEEE 802.11n Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)

ABSTRACT  The IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) standard was able to ease the communication difficulty by providing mobility and low cost of system deployment for its users. On the other hand, the WLAN has difficulty in meeting the optimum Quality of Service (QoS)demand for data applications. Consequently, a later variant of the amendment standard, IEEE 802.11n, came with improvement strategies. The introduction of frame aggregation, block acknowledgment and reverse direction pr...

Simulation, Modeling and Control for Crude Distillation Unit

ABSTRACT  The control of the distillation unit in Khartoum refinery, by keeping the operating conditions in certain limits is essential to adjust disturbances which lead to deviation from the desired values. The aim of this work is to select the suitable controller and the appropriate tuning method. The control loops are designed depending upon controllability and performance. These loops were Control of furnace temperature, Control of interface level at reflux drum, Control of level at stri...
