Performance Analysis of Isolated Zeta Converter Usedfor 2-Wheeler EV Charger
Abstract: Electric vehicles (EVs), particularly two-wheelers, are gaining traction as sustainable urban mobility solutions. However, the lack of quick and easy charging infrastructure makes it difficult for them to be widely adopted. It’s no surprise that the electric vehicle (EV) market is expanding very quickly. With the many benefits of EVs, such as lower emissions, reduced fuel costs, and quieter operation, they are becoming an increasingly attractive option for environmentally conscious …

Bifacial Solar Photovoltaics Systems Design and Modelling
Abstract: The rapid evolution of photovoltaic (PV) technologies has led to the emergence of bifacial solar modules as a superior alternative to conventional monofacial panels. Bifacial modules are designed to harness solar irradiance from both the front and rear surfaces, enabling increased energy yield through ground-reflected radiation, known as albedo. This paper presents the design and simulation-based modelling of bifacial solar PV systems, tailored to Indian climatic and geographic conditions. Using …

Robust Power Supply Design and Parameter Monitoring of Electrostatic Precipitator
Abstract: This paper focuses on the development of a high-performance power supply system tailored for electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) to improve their efficiency in industrial applications. The proposed system converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) using an AC to DC converter, followed by a boost converter to elevate the output voltage to the levels required for effective ESP operation. The boost converter ensures the output voltage remains stable, compensating for …
