Here, the composite components are optimized by the matrix modification,BST(Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)TiO_(3)) ceramic fibrillation and surface coating. A series of PVDF/polymethyl methacrylate/lysozyme@BST nanofibers with continuous gradient distribution(PF-M/m BST nf-g) are prepared by the concentration gradient-biaxial high-speed electrospinning. The finite element simulation and experiment results indicate that the continuous gradient structure is favorable for the microstructure and inhomogeneity of the electric field distribution, significantly increasing the breakdown strength(Eb) and the permittivity(εr), as well as effectively suppressing the interfacial injected charge and leakage current. As a result, the energy storage density(Ue) of 23.1 J/cm^(3)at 600 MV/m with the charge-discharge efficiency(η) of 71% is achieved compared to PF-M(5.6 J/cm^(3)@350 MV/m, 65%). The exciting energy storage performance based on the well-designed PF-M/m BST nf-g provides important information for the development and application of polymer nanocomposite dielectrics.展开更多

文摘In wind power transmission via modular multilevel converter based high voltage direct current(MMCHVDC)systems,under traditional control strategies,MMC-HVDCcannot provide inertia support to the receiving-end grid(REG)during disturbances.Moreover,due to the frequency decoupling between the two ends of the MMCHVDC,the sending-end wind farm(SEWF)cannot obtain the frequency variation information of the REG to provide inertia response.Therefore,this paper proposes a novel coordinated source-network-storage inertia control strategy based on wind power transmission via MMC-HVDC system.First,the grid-side MMC station(GS-MMC)maps the frequency variations of the REG to direct current(DC)voltage variations through the frequency mapping control,and uses submodule capacitor energy to provide inertial power.Then,the wind farm-side MMC station(WF-MMC)restores the DC voltage variations to frequency variations through the frequency restoration control and power loss compensation,providing real-time frequency information for the wind farm.Finally,based on real-time frequency information,thewind farmutilizes the rotor kinetic energy and energy storage to provide fast and lasting power support through the wind-storage coordinated inertia control strategy.Meanwhile,when the wind turbines withdraw from the inertia response phase,the energy storage can increase the power output to compensate for the power deficit,preventing secondary frequency drops.Furthermore,this paper uses small-signal analysis to determine the appropriate values for the key parameters of the proposed control strategy.A simulation model of the wind power transmission via MMCHVDC system is built in MATLAB/Simulink environment to validate and evaluate the proposed method.The results show that the proposed coordinated control strategy can effectively improve the system inertia level and avoid the secondary frequency drop under the load sudden increase condition.

文摘In order to address environmental pollution and resource depletion caused by traditional power generation,this paper proposes an adaptive iterative dynamic-balance optimization algorithm that integrates the Improved Dung Beetle Optimizer(IDBO)with VariationalMode Decomposition(VMD).The IDBO-VMD method is designed to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of wind-speed time-series decomposition and to effectively smooth photovoltaic power fluctuations.This study innovatively improves the traditional variational mode decomposition(VMD)algorithm,and significantly improves the accuracy and adaptive ability of signal decomposition by IDBO selfoptimization of key parameters K and a.On this basis,Fourier transform technology is used to define the boundary point between high frequency and low frequency signals,and a targeted energy distribution strategy is proposed:high frequency fluctuations are allocated to supercapacitors to quickly respond to transient power fluctuations;Lowfrequency components are distributed to lead-carbon batteries,optimizing long-term energy storage and scheduling efficiency.This strategy effectively improves the response speed and stability of the energy storage system.The experimental results demonstrate that the IDBO-VMD algorithm markedly outperforms traditional methods in both decomposition accuracy and computational efficiency.Specifically,it effectively reduces the charge–discharge frequency of the battery,prolongs battery life,and optimizes the operating ranges of the state-of-charge(SOC)for both leadcarbon batteries and supercapacitors.In addition,the energy management strategy based on the algorithm not only improves the overall energy utilization efficiency of the system,but also shows excellent performance in the dynamic management and intelligent scheduling of renewable energy generation.

文摘Hard carbons(HCs)are commercial anode materials for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs),yet their electrochemical performance remains limited by intrinsic structural deficiencies and insufficient Na+storage kinetics.Herein,we report oxygen manipulation in hard carbon,enabled by plasma and laser beam,for improved Na^(+)storage.Starting with commercial HC electrodes,oxygen atoms were first implanted into carbon layers via atmospheric plasma treatment under controlled oxygen partial pressure.Subsequent laser irradiation induced localized thermal shocks that selectively remove oxygen atoms from edge sites,triggering transient carbon lattice rearrangement to simultaneously generate intrinsic defects and optimally sized closed nanopores(1.2-2.0 nm).This dual-stage regulation yielded HC anodes with exceptional Na^(+)storage properties,achieving a high reversible capacity of 335 mAh·g^(-1)at 30 mA·g^(-1)(with 36% enhancement compared with pristine HC)and enhanced Na+diffusion.Through in situ Raman and correlated ex situ spectroscopy analyses(electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)),we systematically decode the multiscale Na^(+)storage mechanism involving defect adsorption,interlayer intercalation,and nanopore filling.The proposed methodology bridges atomic-scale structural engineering with macroscopic electrode performance optimization,offering a scalable green manufacturing pathway for next-generation SIBs.

文摘Micro-sized anatase TiO_(2) displays inferior capacity as cathode material for magnesium ion batteries because of the higher diffusion energy barrier of Mg^(2+)in anatase TiO_(2) lattice.Herein,we report that nanosized anatase TiO_(2) exposed(001)facet doubles the capacity compared to the micro-sized sample ascribed to the interfacial Mg^(2+)ion storage.First-principles calculations reveal that the diffusion energy barrier of Mg^(2+)on the(001)facet is significantly lower than those in the bulk phase and on(100)facet,and the adsorption energy of Mg^(2+)on the(001)facet is also considerably lower than that on(100)facet,which guarantees superior interfacial Mg^(2+)storage of(001)facet.Moreover,anatase TiO_(2) exposed(001)facet displays a significantly higher capacity of 312.9 mAh g^(−1) in Mg-Li dual-salt electrolyte compared to 234.3 mAh g^(−1) in Li salt electrolyte.The adsorption energies of Mg^(2+)on(001)facet are much lower than the adsorption energies of Li+on(001)facet,implying that the Mg^(2+)ion interfacial storage is more favorable.These results highlight that controlling the crystal facet of the nanocrystals effectively enhances the interfacial storage of multivalent ions.This work offers valuable guidance for the rational design of high-capacity storage systems.

文摘Metal hydrides with high hydrogen density provide promising hydrogen storage paths for hydrogen transportation.However,the requirement of highly pure H_(2)for re-hydrogenation limits its wide application.Here,amorphous Al_(2)O_(3)shells(10 nm)were deposited on the surface of highly active hydrogen storage material particles(MgH_(2)-ZrTi)by atomic layer deposition to obtain MgH_(2)-ZrTi@Al_(2)O_(3),which have been demonstrated to be air stable with selective adsorption of H_(2)under a hydrogen atmosphere with different impurities(CH_(4),O_(2),N_(2),and CO_(2)).About 4.79 wt%H_(2)was adsorbed by MgH_(2)-ZrTi@10nmAl_(2)O_(3)at 75℃under 10%CH_(4)+90%H_(2)atmosphere within 3 h with no kinetic or density decay after 5 cycles(~100%capacity retention).Furthermore,about 4 wt%of H_(2)was absorbed by MgH_(2)-ZrTi@10nmAl_(2)O_(3)under 0.1%O_(2)+0.4%N_(2)+99.5%H_(2)and 0.1%CO_(2)+0.4%N_(2)+99.5%H_(2)atmospheres at 100℃within 0.5 h,respectively,demonstrating the selective hydrogen absorption of MgH_(2)-ZrTi@10nmAl_(2)O_(3)in both oxygen-containing and carbon dioxide-containing atmospheres hydrogen atmosphere.The absorption and desorption curves of MgH_(2)-ZrTi@10nmAl_(2)O_(3)with and without absorption in pure hydrogen and then in 21%O_(2)+79%N_(2)for 1 h were found to overlap,further confirming the successful shielding effect of Al_(2)O_(3)shells against O_(2)and N_(2).The MgH_(2)-ZrTi@10nmAl_(2)O_(3)has been demonstrated to be air stable and have excellent selective hydrogen absorption performance under the atmosphere with CH_(4),O_(2),N_(2),and CO_(2).

文摘To achieve the high availability of health data in erasure-coded cloud storage systems,the data update performance in erasure coding should be continuously optimized.However,the data update performance is often bottlenecked by the constrained cross-rack bandwidth.Various techniques have been proposed in the literature to improve network bandwidth efficiency,including delta transmission,relay,and batch update.These techniques were largely proposed individually previously,and in this work,we seek to use them jointly.To mitigate the cross-rack update traffic,we propose DXR-DU which builds on four valuable techniques:(i)delta transmission,(ii)XOR-based data update,(iii)relay,and(iv)batch update.Meanwhile,we offer two selective update approaches:1)data-deltabased update,and 2)parity-delta-based update.The proposed DXR-DU is evaluated via trace-driven local testbed experiments.Comprehensive experiments show that DXR-DU can significantly improve data update throughput while mitigating the cross-rack update traffic.
文摘A hydrogen energy storage system(HESS)is one of the many risingmodern green innovations,using excess energy to generate hydrogen and storing it for various purposes.With that,there have been many discussions about commercializing HESS and improving it further.However,the design and sizing process can be overwhelming to comprehend with various sources to examine,and understanding optimal design methodologies is crucial to optimize a HESS design.With that,this review aims to collect and analyse a wide range of HESS studies to summarise recent studies.Two different collections of studies are studied,one was sourced by the main author for preliminary readings,and another was obtained via VOSViewer.The findings from the Web of Science platform were also examined for amore comprehensive understanding.Major findings include the People’sRepublic of China has been active in HESS research,as most works and active organizations originate from this country.HESS has been mainly researched to support power generation and balance load demands,with financial analysis being the common scope of analysis.MATLAB is a common tool used for HESS design,modelling,and optimization as it can handle complex calculations.Artificial neural network(ANN)has the potential to be used to model the HESS,but additional review is required as a formof future work.From a commercialization perspective,pressurized hydrogen tanks are ideal for hydrogen storage in a HESS,but other methods can be considered after additional research and development.From this review,it can be implied that modelling works will be the way forward for HESS research,but extensive collaborations and additional review are needed.Overall,this review summarized various takeaways that future research works on HESS can use.

文摘Present of wind power is sporadically and cannot be utilized as the only fundamental load of energy sources.This paper proposes a wind-solar hybrid energy storage system(HESS)to ensure a stable supply grid for a longer period.A multi-objective genetic algorithm(MOGA)and state of charge(SOC)region division for the batteries are introduced to solve the objective function and configuration of the system capacity,respectively.MATLAB/Simulink was used for simulation test.The optimization results show that for a 0.5 MW wind power and 0.5 MW photovoltaic system,with a combination of a 300 Ah lithium battery,a 200 Ah lead-acid battery,and a water storage tank,the proposed strategy reduces the system construction cost by approximately 18,000 yuan.Additionally,the cycle count of the electrochemical energy storage systemincreases from4515 to 4660,while the depth of discharge decreases from 55.37%to 53.65%,achieving shallow charging and discharging,thereby extending battery life and reducing grid voltage fluctuations significantly.The proposed strategy is a guide for stabilizing the grid connection of wind and solar power generation,capability allocation,and energy management of energy conservation systems.

文摘The new energy power generation is becoming increasingly important in the power system.Such as photovoltaic power generation has become a research hotspot,however,due to the characteristics of light radiation changes,photovoltaic power generation is unstable and random,resulting in a low utilization rate and directly affecting the stability of the power grid.To solve this problem,this paper proposes a coordinated control strategy for a newenergy power generation system with a hybrid energy storage unit based on the lithium iron phosphate-supercapacitor hybrid energy storage unit.Firstly,the variational mode decomposition algorithm is used to separate the high and low frequencies of the power signal,which is conducive to the rapid and accurate suppression of the power fluctuation of the energy storage system.Secondly,the fuzzy control algorithm is introduced to balance the power between energy storage.In this paper,the actual data is used for simulation,and the simulation results show that the strategy realizes the effective suppression of the bus voltage fluctuation and the accurate control of the internal state of the energy storage unit,effectively avoiding problems such as overshoot and over-discharge,and can significantly improve the stability of the photovoltaic power generation systemand the stability of the Direct Current bus.It is of great significance to promote the development of collaborative control technology for photovoltaic hybrid energy storage units.
文摘Pitch produced by the lique-faction of coal was divided into two frac-tions:soluble in toluene(TS)and insol-uble in toluene but soluble in pyridine(TI-PS),and their differences in molecu-lar structure and oxidation activity were studied.Several different carbon materi-als were produced from them by oxida-tion in air(350℃,300 mL/min)fol-lowed by carbonization(1000℃ in Ar),and the effect of the cross-linked structure on their structure and sodium storage properties was investigated.The results showed that the two pitch fractions were obviously different after the air oxidation.The TS fraction with a low degree of condensation and abundant side chains had a stronger oxidation activity and thus introduced more cross-linked oxygen-containing functional groups C(O)―O which prevented carbon layer rearrangement during the carbonization.As a result,a disordered hard carbon with more defects was formed,which improved the electrochemical performance.Therefore,the carbon materials derived from TS(O-TS-1000)had an obvious disordered structure and a larger layer spacing,giving them better sodium storage perform-ance than those derived from the TI-PS fraction(O-TI-PS-1000).The specific capacity of O-TS-1000 was about 250 mAh/g at 20 mA/g,which was 1.67 times higher than that of O-TI-PS-1000(150 mAh/g).

文摘Phase Change Material(PCM)-based cold energy storage system(CESS)can effectively utilize the peak and valley power resources to reduce the excessive dependence on the power grid.In this study,a PCM-based CESS was designed for cold storage applications.The optimal number of PCM plates was determined through numerical simulations to meet the required cold storage temperature and control time.Additionally,the air temperature field,flow field,and melting characteristics of the PCMplates during the cooling release process were analyzed.The effects of plate positioning and thickness on the cooling release performance were further investigated.The results indicated that when 64PCMplateswere used,the duration formaintaining temperatures below−18℃increased from0.6 h to approximately 16.94 h.During the cooling release process,the temperature field in the cold storage exhibited stratification,and the melting of the PCM plates was non-uniform.Placing the PCM plates at the top or within the interlayers without cargo above proved more effective,with their cooling release power being approximately twice that of the PCM plates placed in the interlayers with cargo above.Furthermore,reducing the thickness of the PCMplates from15 to 7.5mmresulted in a 3.6-h increase in the time below−18℃and a 4.5-h reduction in the time required to reach 80%liquid phase fraction.

文摘Latent heat thermal energy storage(TES)effectively reduces the mismatch between energy supply and demand of renewable energy sources by the utilization of phase change materials(PCMs).However,the low thermal conductivity and poor shape stability are the main drawbacks in realizing the large-scale application of PCMs.Promisingly,developing composite PCM(CPCM)based on porous supporting mate-rial provides a desirable solution to obtain performance-enhanced PCMs with improved effective thermal conductivity and shape stability.Among all the porous matrixes as supports for PCM,three-dimensional carbon-based porous supporting material has attracted considerable attention ascribing to its high ther-mal conductivity,desirable loading capacity of PCMs,and excellent chemical compatibility with various PCMs.Therefore,this work systemically reviews the CPCMs with three-dimensional carbon-based porous supporting materials.First,a concise rule for the fabrication of CPCMs is illustrated in detail.Next,the experimental and computational research of carbon nanotube-based support,graphene-based support,graphite-based support and amorphous carbon-based support are reviewed.Then,the applications of the shape-stabilized CPCMs including thermal management and thermal conversion are illustrated.Last but not least,the challenges and prospects of the CPCMs are discussed.To conclude,introducing carbon-based porous materials can solve the liquid leakage issue and essentially improve the thermal conductivity of PCMs.However,there is still a long way to further develop a desirable CPCM with higher latent heat capacity,higher thermal conductivity,and more excellent shape stability.

文摘The magnesium based metal hydrogen storage composite system Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH has a theoretical hydro-gen storage capacity of 5.6 wt.%and is a promising hydrogen storage material for vehicles.However,its application is limited due to serious thermodynamic and kinetic barriers.Introducing efficient catalysts is an effective method to improve the hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH.This article in-vestigates for the first time the use of nano rare earth oxide CeO_(2)(~44.5 nm)as an efficient modifier,achieving comprehensive regulation of the hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH composite system through oxygen vacancy driven catalysis.The modification mechanism of nano CeO_(2) is also sys-tematically studied using density functional theory(DFT)calculations and experimental results.Research has shown that the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of the Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH-5 wt.%CeO_(2) composite system is optimal,with high hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics and reversible per-formance.The initial hydrogen absorption and desorption temperatures of the composite system were significantly reduced from 110/130℃to 65/80℃,and the release of by-product ammonia was signifi-cantly inhibited.Under the conditions of 170℃/50 min and 180℃/100 min,4.37 wt.%of hydrogen can be rapidly absorbed and released.After 10 cycles of hydrogen release,the hydrogen cycle retention rate increased from 85%to nearly 100%.Further mechanistic studies have shown that the nano CeO_(2-x) gen-erated in situ during hydrogen evolution can effectively weaken the Mg-N and N-H bonds of Mg(NH_(2))_(2),exhibiting good catalytic effects.Meanwhile,oxygen vacancies provide a fast pathway for the diffusion of hydrogen atoms in the composite system.In addition,nano CeO_(2-x) can effectively inhibit the polycrys-talline transformation of the hydrogen evolving product Li_(2)MgN_(2)H_(2) in the system at high temperatures,reducing the difficulty of re-hydrogenation of the system.This study provides an innovative perspective for the efficient modification of magnesium based metal hydrogen storage composite materials using rare earth based catalysts,and also provides a reference for regulating the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of hydrogen storage materials using rare earth catalysts with oxygen vacancies.

文摘Power quality is a crucial area of research in contemporary power systems,particularly given the rapid proliferation of intermittent renewable energy sources such as wind power.This study investigated the relationships between power quality indices of system output and PSD by utilizing theories related to spectra,PSD,and random signal power spectra.The relationship was derived,validated through experiments and simulations,and subsequently applied to multi-objective optimization.Various optimization algorithms were compared to achieve optimal system power quality.The findings revealed that the relationships between power quality indices and PSD were influenced by variations in the order of the power spectral estimation model.An increase in the order of the AR model resulted in a 36%improvement in the number of optimal solutions.Regarding optimal solution distribution,NSGA-II demonstrated superior diversity,while MOEA/D exhibited better convergence.However,practical applications showed that while MOEA/D had higher convergence,NSGA-II produced superior optimal solutions,achieving the best power quality indices(THDi at 4.62%,d%at 3.51%,and cosφat 96%).These results suggest that the proposed method holds significant potential for optimizing power quality in practical applications.

文摘The Li-Mg-N-H(Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH)system,as a high-capacity Mg-based metal hydrogen storage material(5.6 wt%),has broad prospects for in vehicle hydrogen storage applications,but it still has high hydrogen ab/desorption barriers.To improve its hydrogen storage performance,a nanohydrogen storage alloy was innovatively combined with Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH,AB5 type nanohydrogen storage alloy LaNi_(5)was prepared by co-precipitation method.Nano LaNi_(5)and single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWCNTs)were co-doped into the Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH system at a ratio of 10 wt%and 2 wt%,significantly enhancing the hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH.The initial hydrogen ab/desorption temperatures of the co-doped system decreased from110/130℃to 45/85℃.The release of by-product ammonia is significantly inhibited.4.73 wt% H_(2)can be ab/desorption in 150 min at 180/170℃.Cycle tests show that the co-doped system can still maintain a hydrogen storage capacity of 4.75 wt% after ten hydrogen release cycles.Mechanism and density functional theory study have shown that during the hydrogen release process,partially hydrogenated LaNi_(5)weakens the chemical bonding in Mg(NH_(2))_(2),promoted the dissociation of hydrogen from the Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH system,while playing a dual role of"hydrogen overflow"and"hydrogen pump".SWCNTs act as auxiliary agents,helping to refine particle size and increase thermal conductivity.The synergistic effect of the two optimizes the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of Mg(NH_(2))_(2)-2LiH.This study provides a new research method for improving the comprehensive hydrogen storage performance of Mg-based metal hydrogen storage materials using rare earth element catalysts.

文摘PVDF-based nanocomposites have gained significant focus in capacitors for their excellent dielectric strength, its multi-scale structural inhomogeneity is the bottleneck for improving the energy storage performance. Here, the composite components are optimized by the matrix modification,BST(Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)TiO_(3)) ceramic fibrillation and surface coating. A series of PVDF/polymethyl methacrylate/lysozyme@BST nanofibers with continuous gradient distribution(PF-M/m BST nf-g) are prepared by the concentration gradient-biaxial high-speed electrospinning. The finite element simulation and experiment results indicate that the continuous gradient structure is favorable for the microstructure and inhomogeneity of the electric field distribution, significantly increasing the breakdown strength(Eb) and the permittivity(εr), as well as effectively suppressing the interfacial injected charge and leakage current. As a result, the energy storage density(Ue) of 23.1 J/cm^(3)at 600 MV/m with the charge-discharge efficiency(η) of 71% is achieved compared to PF-M(5.6 J/cm^(3)@350 MV/m, 65%). The exciting energy storage performance based on the well-designed PF-M/m BST nf-g provides important information for the development and application of polymer nanocomposite dielectrics.
