Item Contribuições à modelagem, controle e integração de dispositivos fotovoltaicos a sistemas elétricos de potência(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2023-11-03) Corrêa, Henrique Pires; Vieira, Flávio Henrique Teles; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0920629723928382; Vieira, Flávio Henrique Teles; Palhares, Reinaldo Martinez; Kopcak, Igor; Negrete, Lina Paola Garcés; Belchior , Fernando NunesThe prominence attained by photovoltaic (PV) power generation among the various available renewable energy resources has led to the need of analyzing and engineering such technology at a wide range of implementation scales, beginning from the electrical characteristics of PV cells, passing through the local control of PV generation systems, up to the massive integration of PV resources to wider electrical power systems, such as the distribution grid. This thesis is divided into three parts, each of which presents novel contributions to the study of PV systems in the three aforementioned scales of analysis. In the first part, analytical modeling of PV cell current-voltage (I-V) characteristics by means of explicit closed-form equations is addressed. A new piecewise quadratic model is proposed, which is shown to perform either better or comparably, for different solar cells, to state-of-the-art models in terms of accuracy. Two methods are established for computing the model parameters: the first one is analytical and only requires datasheet information, whereas the second one uses linear-complexity optimization with respect to I-V samples in order to further improve accuracy. In the second part, the problem of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in two-stage PV systems is considered. First, a new hybrid MPPT method which uses direct duty cycle control for enhanced tracking efficiency is developed for grid-tied systems. Then, an analytical MPPT approach for single-phase off-grid variable-voltage systems is presented and subsequently generalized to consider current harmonics and three-phase loads. Both proposed MPPT methods are shown, by means of simulation, to perform better than existing methods with similar implementation complexities. In the third part, voltage control of distribution systems with photovoltaic penetration by means of PV inverter reactive power support is studied. Three novel decentralized methods for controlling the inverter reactive power setpoints are proposed. The first method considers voltage measurements are available at each PV inverter and consists in the heuristic specification of a cooperative decentralized Markov decision process (MDP), whose offline solution yields voltage control policies to be carried out by the grid zone controllers. On the other hand, the second method assumes voltage measurement and computational resources are scarce and establishes a decentralized strategy which only uses two voltage measurements per control zone and is directly compatible with droop-type controls usually found in PV inverters. At last, a third method is presented which combines cooperative MDP, droop control and a switching mechanism for achieving a compromise between voltage regulation and reduction of active power losses. All methods are compared to similar existing approaches, via simulations with real irradiance profiles in a large distribution grid, yielding favorable performances.Item Aplicação da transformada de Hilbert-Huang e da seleção paraconsistente de características no campo da entomologia agrícola: uma abordagem para identificação e estimativa de densidade de cigarras em lavouras cafeeiras(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2023-12-01) Souza, Uender Barbosa de; Escola, João Paulo Lemos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5894769490673984; Brito, Leonardo da Cunha; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6660680440182900; Brito, Leonardo da Cunha; Vieira, Flávio Henrique Teles; Lemos, Rodrigo Pinto; Escola, João Paulo Lemos; Maccagnan, Douglas Henrique BotturaThe sounds emitted by various insect species carry specific and reliable acoustic characteristics. For this reason, acoustic identification of insects has been widely investigated by the scientific community in the field of pattern recognition. In Brazil, the cicada species Quesada gigas is considered a pest in coffee crops due to its sap-feeding habits, which can cause losses to farmers during intense attacks. Given this scenario, and considering the fact that the most striking characteristic of cicadas is sound emission for reproductive purposes, this work proposes a system designed to assist in the management of pest insects in coffee crops. Specifically, this system aims to detect the presence of cicadas or estimate their density through acoustic signals. The approach innovatively combines the extraction and analysis/selection of sound features through the Hilbert-Huang Transform (HHT) and Paraconsistent Feature Engineering, two emerging methods of growing interest in the scientific community. A detailed study was conducted on the influence of eight stopping criteria for the Empirical Mode Decomposition, the first step of HHT, considering variations of parameters, temporality, signal sampling, and also the encoding of these signals in two formats. The first defines vectors by the energies of the Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) in order of extraction, while the second distributes the energies of the IMFs according to the 25 frequency bands of the Bark Scale. Additionally, the dimensional variation of the vectors was analyzed. The experiments allowed determining low computational cost configurations, showcasing the efficacy of the proposed system, with models based on Support Vector Machines achieving accuracies above 98% in both identification and density estimation of cicadas. Thus, this document details the theoretical foundations, design, development of the system, discussions about possibilities for its practical application, and an initial analysis of a developed application for smartphones. This proposal has the potential to encourage the reuse of old electronic equipment, promoting sustainable and economically viable practices.
