The underlying causes of the output performance change were analyzed from the anode reactions by summarizing the anode exhaust gas regular pattern for different reactions, and analyzing the electrochemical reaction kinetics of methane with oxygen ion. As the oxygen ion concentration at the anode three-phase boundary proportionally increased with current density, the following reactions occurred for different dry methane concentrations in sequence CH4 + O2﹣ → CO + 2H2 + 2e﹣, CH4 + 2O2﹣ → CO + H2O + H2 + 4e﹣, CH4 + 3O2﹣ → CO + 2H2O + 6e﹣, CH4 + 4O2﹣ → CO2 + 2H2O + 8e﹣. With various concentrations of methane at a low current, the outlet methane continuously reduced with the increase of the current density. Meanwhile, CO and H2 exhaust gas increased with increasing current density for low concentration of methane. With methane concentrations at 3.85% and 5.66%, the cell output voltage dropped rapidly. For concentrations of 29.7% and 3.85%, the anode exhaust residual methane changed irregularly with current density and this phenomenon was associated with the dry methane that reacted on anode of the cell. The transformation of reactions, the water produced in the electrochemical reactions and the polarization in response to the change of reactions maybe induced the output voltage and power density reducing as low concentrations of dry methane were used.展开更多

It contributes a compact resolution with a combined feature of Dual Mode-Multiple Output (DMMO) associated with input ripple reduction technique. Control strategy incorporates with aspect of Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) and output voltage levels regulation. A theoretical analysis is conducted to evaluate the effect of ripple current on PV power. Proposed dual mode converter achieves efficiency of 98.36% and 97.76% respectively for mode-1 and mode-2 operation. However, simulation is performed applying MATLAB/SIMULINK tools to analyze the feasibility of the recommended system.展开更多

The linear precoding schemes were proposed to mitigate interferences between the base stations (inter-cell). These schemes are categorized into linear and non-linear;this study focused on linear precoding schemes, which are grounded into three types, namely Zero Forcing (ZF), Block Diagonalization (BD), and Signal Leakage Noise Ratio (SLNR). The study included the Cooperative Multi-cell Multi Input Multi Output (MIMO) System, whereby each Base Station serves more than one mobile station and all Base Stations on the system are assisted by each other by shared the Channel State Information (CSI). Based on the Multi-Cell Multiuser MIMO system, each Base Station on the cell is intended to maximize the data transmission rate by its mobile users by increasing the Signal Interference to Noise Ratio after the interference has been mitigated due to the usefully of linear precoding schemes on the transmitter. Moreover, these schemes used different approaches to mitigate interference. This study mainly concentrates on evaluating the performance of these schemes through the channel distribution models such as Ray-leigh and Rician included in the presence of noise errors. The results show that the SLNR scheme outperforms ZF and BD schemes overall scenario. This implied that when the value of SNR increased the performance of SLNR increased by 21.4% and 45.7% for ZF and BD respectively.展开更多
