The stator current serves as a common indicator for detecting open-circuit faults. Due to the identical changes of the stator current between the open-phase faults in the PMSM and failures of double switches within the same leg of the VSI, this paper utilizes the zero-sequence voltage component as an additional diagnostic criterion to differentiate them.Considering the variable conditions and substantial noise of the ARDS, a novel Multi-resolution Network(Mr Net) is proposed, which can extract multi-resolution perceptual information and enhance robustness to the noise. Meanwhile, a feature weighted layer is introduced to allocate higher weights to characteristics situated near the feature frequency. Both simulation and experiment results validate that the proposed fault diagnosis method can diagnose 25 types of open-circuit faults and achieve more than98.28% diagnostic accuracy. In addition, the experiment results also demonstrate that Mr Net has the capability of diagnosing the fault types accurately under the interference of noise signals(Laplace noise and Gaussian noise).展开更多

The analytical results show that V_(OC) increases linearly with the logarithm of illumination intensity under usual illumination. There are two critical values of the interface state density(D_(it)) for the open-circuit voltage(V_(OC)), D_(it)^(crit,1) and D_(it)crit,2(a few 1010 cm^(-2)·e V^(-1)). V_(OC) decreases remarkably when D_(it) is higher than D_(it)^(crit,1). To achieve high V_(OC), the interface states should reduce down to a few 1010 cm^(-2)·e V^(-1). Due to the difference between the effective density of states in the conduction and valence band edges of c-Si, the open-circuit voltage of a-Si:H/c-Si heterojunction cells fabricated on n-type c-Si wafers is about 22 mV higher than that fabricated on p-type c-Si wafers at the same case. V_(OC) decreases with decreasing the a-Si:H doping concentration at low doping level since the electric field over the c-Si depletion region is reduced at low doping level. Therefore, the a-Si:H layer should be doped higher than a critical value of 5×10^(18) cm^(-3) to achieve high V_(OC).展开更多

To change built-in potential preferably in order to increase the open-circuit voltage, the work function of ITO should be increased and work function of Al should be decreased. The correlation between the change in work functions of electrodes and performance of the organic photovoltaic cells before and after surface modifications was examined in detail. The enhancement of open-circuit voltage depends on a function of work function change of both ITO and Al electrode. We could show that the built-in potential in the cells played an important role in open-circuit voltage.展开更多

Three copolymers based on the IPY moiety were obtained via the Suzuki coupling reaction with dif- ferent monomers, including 4,7-dithien-2-yl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole （DBT）, 5,8-dithien-2-yl-2,3-diphenylquinoxa- line （DTQ）, and 5,8-dithien-2-yl-2,3-di（4-fluorophenyl）quinoxaline （DFTQ）. The obtained polymers were charac- terized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and gel permeation chro- matography （GPC）. Owing to the four solubilizing alkyl chains on the IPY unit, all the three copolymers have good solubility in common solvents. These polymers have deep-lying HOMO energy levels in the range of-5.55-5.60 eV, and exhibit field-effect mobilities as high as 0.006 cm2.V-l.s i. Photovoltaic applications of these polymers as light-harvesting and hole-conducting materials were investigated in conjunction with [6,6]-phenyl-C6rbutyric acid methyl ester （PC61BM）. Both conventional and inverted devices were fabricated based on these three polymers. A power conversion efficiency （PCE） of 2.53% and a high open-circuit voltage of 1.00 V were obtained under simu- lated solar light AM 1.5 G （100 mW/cm2） from an inverted solar cell with an active layer containing 25 wt% lad- der-type IPY containing copolymer （PIPYDTQ） and 75 wt% PC61BM. Moreover, a high open-circuit voltage of 1.02 V and a PCE of 2.40% were achieved from a conventional solar cell based on PIPYDTQ.展开更多

文摘Battery management systems(BMSs) play a vital role in ensuring efficient and reliable operations of lithium-ion batteries.The main function of the BMSs is to estimate battery states and diagnose battery health using battery open-circuit voltage(OCV).However,acquiring the complete OCV data online can be a challenging endeavor due to the time-consuming measurement process or the need for specific operating conditions required by OCV estimation models.In addressing these concerns,this study introduces a deep neural network-combined framework for accurate and robust OCV estimation,utilizing partial daily charging data.We incorporate a generative deep learning model to extract aging-related features from data and generate high-fidelity OCV curves.Correlation analysis is employed to identify the optimal partial charging data,optimizing the OCV estimation precision while preserving exceptional flexibility.The validation results,using data from nickel-cobalt-magnesium(NCM) batteries,illustrate the accurate estimation of the complete OCV-capacity curve,with an average root mean square errors(RMSE) of less than 3 mAh.Achieving this level of precision for OCV estimation requires only around 50 s collection of partial charging data.Further validations on diverse battery types operating under various conditions confirm the effectiveness of our proposed method.Additional cases of precise health diagnosis based on OCV highlight the significance of conducting online OCV estimation.Our method provides a flexible approach to achieve complete OCV estimation and holds promise for generalization to other tasks in BMSs.

文摘The effect of the parameters on the open-circuit voltage, V_(OC) of a-Si:H/c-Si heterojunction solar cells was explored by an analytical model. The analytical results show that V_(OC) increases linearly with the logarithm of illumination intensity under usual illumination. There are two critical values of the interface state density(D_(it)) for the open-circuit voltage(V_(OC)), D_(it)^(crit,1) and D_(it)crit,2(a few 1010 cm^(-2)·e V^(-1)). V_(OC) decreases remarkably when D_(it) is higher than D_(it)^(crit,1). To achieve high V_(OC), the interface states should reduce down to a few 1010 cm^(-2)·e V^(-1). Due to the difference between the effective density of states in the conduction and valence band edges of c-Si, the open-circuit voltage of a-Si:H/c-Si heterojunction cells fabricated on n-type c-Si wafers is about 22 mV higher than that fabricated on p-type c-Si wafers at the same case. V_(OC) decreases with decreasing the a-Si:H doping concentration at low doping level since the electric field over the c-Si depletion region is reduced at low doping level. Therefore, the a-Si:H layer should be doped higher than a critical value of 5×10^(18) cm^(-3) to achieve high V_(OC).

However, PCBM is extremely expensive and is not suitable for future industrialization. Herein, the various concentrations of PCBM as an additive are adopted for PSCs. It not only avoids the routine process of spin coating the multi-layer films, but also reduces the PCBM material and cost.

文摘Recently,the anomalous photovoltaic effect of ferroelectric materials has attracted considerable attention in the construction of efficient solar cells owing to the above-bandgap photovoltage of these materials.In this study,we investigate the anomalous photovoltaic effect of relaxor-based ferroelectric Pb(In_(1/2)Nb_(1/2))O_(3)-Pb(Mg_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_(3)-PbTiO_(3)(PIMN-PT)ceramics with large remnant polarization and a narrow optical bandgap.Excellent photovoltaic performance with an ultrahigh open-circuit voltage of 23 V(575 V/cm)is achieved,which is higher than the open-circuit voltages of all reported polycrystalline materials with similar thickness.The phase structure,microstructure morphology,domain structure,ferroelectric and optical characteristics are analyzed,which could provide clues to the origin of the ultrahigh open-circuit voltage of PIMN-PT ceramics.The results suggest that the relaxor-based ferroelectric PIMNPT system is a potential candidate for photovoltaic solar energy conversion devices.

文摘The condition monitoring and fault diagnosis have been identified as the key to achieving higher availabilities of wind turbines.Numerous studies show that the open-circuit fault is a significant contributor to the failures of wind turbine converter.However,the multiple faults combinations and the influence of wind speed changes abruptly,grid voltage sags and noise interference have brought great challenges to fault diagnosis.Accordingly,concerning the open-circuit fault of converters in direct-driven PMSG wind turbine,a diagnostic method for multiple open-circuit faults is proposed in this paper,which is divided into two tasks:The first one is the fault detection and the second one is the fault localization.The detection method is based on the relative current residuals after exponential transformation and on an adaptive threshold,and the localization method is based on the average values of fault phase currents.The scheduled diagnosis method is available to both the generator-side converter and the grid-side converter,allowing to detect and locate single and double open-circuit faults.For validating this,robustness test and multiple open-circuit faults diagnosis are presented in a 2-MW direct-driven PMSG wind turbine system,the results validate the reliability and effectiveness of the proposed method.
文摘The possibility of the increase in open-circuit voltage of organic photovoltaic cells based primarily indium-tin oxide (ITO)/rubrene/fullerene/Al structure by changing the work function of ITO anodes and Al cathodes was described in this work. To change built-in potential preferably in order to increase the open-circuit voltage, the work function of ITO should be increased and work function of Al should be decreased. The correlation between the change in work functions of electrodes and performance of the organic photovoltaic cells before and after surface modifications was examined in detail. The enhancement of open-circuit voltage depends on a function of work function change of both ITO and Al electrode. We could show that the built-in potential in the cells played an important role in open-circuit voltage.

文摘MAPbI_(3) perovskite solar cells(PSCs)exhibit a theoretical open-circuit voltage(V_(OC))of approximately 1.3 V,and minimizing V_(OC) loss is crucial for enhancing their performance.Herein,we focus on MAPbI_(3) PSCs to inhibit the interfacial charge recombination and voltage loss through synergistic energy-level grading and lattice matching.The synthesized SrTiO_(3) nanocubes were incorporated into the TiO_(2) electron transport layer to effectively achieve optimal energy alignment with the conduction band of MAPbI_(3),to reduce charge carrier energy loss,and improve carrier extraction.Furthermore,the small lattice mismatch between the perovskite structures of SrTiO_(3) and MAPbI_(3) promoted the growth of high-quality perovskite films with reduced defect density.As a result,the V_(OC) of the MAPbI_(3) PSCs was increased to 1.17 V,and the power conversion efficiency reached 22.19%.This work provides an effective approach to interface optimization to emphasize the energy-level grading and lattice matching in minimizing V_(OC) loss and improving the performance of MAPbI_(3) PSCs.

文摘Power conversion efficiency(PCE)of single-junction polymer solar cells(PSCs)has made a remarkable breakthrough recently.Plenty of work was reported to achieve PCEs higher than 16%derived from the PM6:Y6 binary system.To further increase the PCEs of binary OSCs incorporating small molecular acceptor(SMA)Y6,we substituted PM6 with PM7 due to the deeper highest occupied molecular orbital(HOMO)of PM7.Consequently,the PM7:Y6 has achieved PCEs as high as 17.0%by the hotcast method,due to the improved open-circuit voltage(VOC).Compared with PM6,the lower HOMO of PM7 increases the gap between ELUMO-donor and EHOMO-acceptor,which is proportional to VOC.This research provides a high PCE for single-junction binary PSCs,which is meaningful for device fabrication related to PM7 and commercialization of PSCs.
文摘Three-phase pulse width modulation converters using insulated gate bipolar transistors(IGBTs)have been widely used in industrial application.However,faults in IGBTs can severely affect the operation and safety of the power electronics equipment and loads.For ensuring system reliability,it is necessary to accurately detect IGBT faults accurately as soon as their occurrences.This paper proposes a diagnosis method based on data-driven theory.A novel randomized learning technology,namely extreme learning machine(ELM)is adopted into historical data learning.Ensemble classifier structure is used to improve diagnostic accuracy.Finally,time window is defined to illustrate the relevance between diagnostic accuracy and data sampling time.By this mean,an appropriate time window is achieved to guarantee a high accuracy with relatively short decision time.Compared to other traditional methods,ELM has a better classification performance.Simulation tests validate the proposed ELM ensemble diagnostic performance.

文摘In this paper,a diagnostic method based on symmetrical and DC components is presented for multiple open-circuit faults(OCFs)in a three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor drive.The remaining phase currents under faulty situations are theoretically analyzed based on the Fourier series method and the mechanism of torque generation.To evaluate the asymmetry and discriminate fault types,the magnitude ratio of the positive sequence to the negative sequence of phase currents is designed as a fault detection index.Thereafter,the DC components of the phase currents in different reference frames are utilized to locate faults.Specifically,the polarities of the DC contents in the natural reference frame are utilized to locate a single OCF and two OCFs in different legs.Two OCFs in the same leg are diagnosed by evaluating the signs of the phase currents in the dq reference frame with a negative rotating direction.The simulated and experimental results validate the effectiveness of the developed method in fault detection and robustness against operating point and motor parameter variations.

文摘Enhancement of open-circuit voltage(Voc)is an effective way to improve power conversion efficiency(PCE)of the perovskite solar cells(PSCs).Theoretically,work function engineering of TiO2 electron transport layer can reduce both the loss of Voc and current hysteresis in PSCs.In this work,two-dimensional g-C_(3)N_(4) nanosheets were adopted to modify the compact TiO2 layers in planar PSCs,which can finely tune the work function(WF)and further improve the energy level alignment at the interface to enhance the Voc and diminish the hysteresis.Meanwhile,the quality of perovskite films and charge transfer of the devices were improved by g-C_(3)N_(4) nanosheets.Therefore,the PCE of the planar PSCs was champed to 19.55%without obvious hysteresis compared with the initial 15.81%,mainly owing to the remarkable improvement of VOC from 1.01 to 1.11 V.In addition,the stability of the devices was obviously improved.The results demonstrate an effective strategy of W_(F) engineering to enhance Voc and diminish hysteresis phenomenon for improving the performance of PSCs.

文摘A ladder-type diindenopyrazine （IPY） was synthesized and used as a building block for constructing conjugated copolymers. Three copolymers based on the IPY moiety were obtained via the Suzuki coupling reaction with dif- ferent monomers, including 4,7-dithien-2-yl-2,1,3-benzothiadiazole （DBT）, 5,8-dithien-2-yl-2,3-diphenylquinoxa- line （DTQ）, and 5,8-dithien-2-yl-2,3-di（4-fluorophenyl）quinoxaline （DFTQ）. The obtained polymers were charac- terized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and gel permeation chro- matography （GPC）. Owing to the four solubilizing alkyl chains on the IPY unit, all the three copolymers have good solubility in common solvents. These polymers have deep-lying HOMO energy levels in the range of-5.55-5.60 eV, and exhibit field-effect mobilities as high as 0.006 cm2.V-l.s i. Photovoltaic applications of these polymers as light-harvesting and hole-conducting materials were investigated in conjunction with [6,6]-phenyl-C6rbutyric acid methyl ester （PC61BM）. Both conventional and inverted devices were fabricated based on these three polymers. A power conversion efficiency （PCE） of 2.53% and a high open-circuit voltage of 1.00 V were obtained under simu- lated solar light AM 1.5 G （100 mW/cm2） from an inverted solar cell with an active layer containing 25 wt% lad- der-type IPY containing copolymer （PIPYDTQ） and 75 wt% PC61BM. Moreover, a high open-circuit voltage of 1.02 V and a PCE of 2.40% were achieved from a conventional solar cell based on PIPYDTQ.
文摘A novel D-A alternative conjugated polymer PBDTDMCT containing benzo[1,2-b：4,5-b＇]dithiophene （BDT） and dimethyl thiophene-3,4-dicarboxylate （DMCT）, was designed and synthesized by Stille cross-coupling reaction. The copolymer exhibited excellent solubility and good thermal stability. The optical band gap determined from the onset of absorption of the polymer film was 2.10 eV. By incorporation of the ester groups into the polymer side chain, the HOMO level of polymer PBDTDMT was tuned to be deep-lying （--5.65 eV）. Open-circuit voltage of polymer solar cells constructed based on PBDTDMT and [6,6]-phenyl-CTwbutyric acid methyl ester （PCTIBM） can be tuned to achieve values as high as ca. 1.0 V.

文摘Due to the large number of submodules(SMs),and modular multilevel converters(MMCs)in high-voltage applications,they are usually regulated by the nearest level modulation(NLM).Moreover,the large number of SMs causes a challenge for the fault diagnosis strategy(FDS).This paper proposes a currentless FDS for MMC with NLM.In FDS,the voltage sensor is relocated to measure the output voltage of the SM.To acquire the capacitor voltage and avoid increasing extra sensors,a capacitor voltage calculation method is proposed.Based on the measurement of output voltages,the faults can be detected and the number of different-type switch open-circuit faults can be confirmed from the numerous SMs in an arm,which narrows the scope of fault localization.Then,the faulty SMs and faulty switches in these SMs are further located without arm current according to the sorting of capacitor voltages in the voltage balancing algorithm.The FDS is independent of the arm current,which can reduce the communication cost in the hierarchical control system of MMC.Furthermore,the proposed FDS not only simplifies the identification of switch open-circuit faults by confirming the scope of faults,but also detects and locates multiple different-type faults in an arm.The effectiveness of the proposed strategy is verified by the simulation results.
