    The development of solar concentrator technology has just reached a very significant level. Using reflectors to concentrate the sun's rays on the absorber dramatically reduces the size of the absorber, reducing heat loss and increasing its efficiency at high temperatures. Another advantage of this system is that the reflectors are significantly less expensive, per unit area, than the flat collectors. To determine the performances of a cylindrical-parabolic concentrator, mathematical modeling of the heat balance on the absorber, the coolant, and the glass envelope was established using Matlab. The system of equations obtained is solved by the finite difference method. The results for a typical day are the variation in the temperature of the heat transfer fluid, the absorber tube, and the glass envelope. Thus, we examine the effect of the wind speed, flow rate on the temperature distribution of the coolant at the outlet. However, for a mass flow rate of the fluid of 0.1 kg / s, the outlet temperature of the fluid is 85 ° C with a thermal efficiency of 73%. Excluding the energy absorbed by the absorber tube is 75% of the solar intensity received on the reflector.

    Performance study and analysis between vector control and direct power control for DFIG based wind energy system
    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2021-12-05) Nurettin, Nurettin; Sevinç, Sevinç
    This paper concentrates on analyzing the performance of the two most important techniques of independent active and reactive power control of the doubly-fed induction generator used in a variable speed wind power conversion system. In the first technique, the independent control of the active and reactive power is based on the vector control technique by the orientation of the stator voltage space vector using PI controllers; the decoupling components are deduced along with the d, q axes; and the PI controllers' parameters are calculated from the mathematical model of the doubly-fed induction generator. Hysteresis controllers are utilized to designing a direct power control technique. The performances of the studied control methods are tested and compared via simulation results

    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2021-12-20) Ayachi, Mohammed Lakhdar; Benhaoua, Atman; Tliba, Tliba, Ali; Souyei, Belgacem
    Halide organometallic perovskite has an important role in the efficiency increase of the solar cell. Thus in this work, we formed the basic nucleus of the organic perovskite, and we studied its morphological properties. The X-ray diffraction result shows that this compound is consistent, homogeneous, and has preferential orientation growth be at (100) plane, which means that the experimental conditions which we worked on were optimal. After adding both tin iodide and methylamine chloride in organic solvents (DMF and DMSO). Deposited this mixture by spray pyrolysis method at Specific temperature 120C°, on the glass substrate, a thin black layer formed; the result of X-ray diffraction on this latter layer showed that it is a spectrum of perovskite compound, which has preferential orientation growth be at (110) plane. Via optical proprieties, it found that has low gap energy of 1.78 eV, and transmittance of 1,6% furthermore it has a high absorption coefficient of 8.104 cm-1, in the visible domain. But it has a relatively high value of Auerbach energy 0.6 eV due to the crystal defects. So this compound could be an active layer in the solar cell.

    Modeling and Power Control of 5th and 3rd order model for DFIG Applied of Wind Conversion System
    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2021-11-30) Atallah, M; Mezouar, A; Belgacem, Kh; . saidi, . Y; Benmahdjoub, M.A
    In this study, a comparison between the fifth-order model and the third-order model of the Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is presented. This paper aims to study and analyze transient stability for the fifth-order and third-order models. The fifth-order model of the DFIG is based on five differentials equations. Neglecting the stator transients from the fifth-order model of the DFIG, we get the third-order. On startup and control of the power system that the third-order model produces better results than the fifth-order model in the transient regime. The performance of the two models on the startup and control of the power system is proved with the simulations (MATLAB/Simulink® software).

    Literature review: synthesis of CuO (Copper Oxide) nanoparticles for thermal energy storage
    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2021-11-15) Satari, Clarysa; Sidqi, Rahmi Sabila; Putra, Febriyana; Putri, Silmi Ridwan; Nandiyanto, Asep Bayu Dani
    This paper aims to provide a discussion of the methods used in the synthesis of CuO nanoparticles. A review of the CuO nanoparticle synthesis method was carried out from 65 articles from 2000 to 2021. The CuO nanoparticle synthesis methods described in this paper are electrochemical, sonochemical, sol-gel, biogenic, green synthesis, and hydrothermal methods. Each method used to synthesize CuO nanoparticles has advantages and disadvantages. Based on their advantages, electrochemical, sonochemical, green synthesis, and biogenic methods are environmentally friendly methods. Moreover, the hydrothermal and biogenic methods are simple methods with easy preparation. In its utilization, CuO nanoparticles can be used to divert heat energy. The addition of a volume of CuO nanoparticles into the nitrate salt can increase the thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity used in solar power plants. Among the methods described, the hydrothermal method is the most effective and efficient technique. This is because the method is simple (without using any surfactant template), easy to vary the temperature, reactant concentration, and time variables on the growth of nanostructures. This paper is expected to provide some considerations regarding the synthesis method of CuO nanoparticles that can be used on an industrial scale based on the advantages of each method

    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2021-12-22) Merzouk, Imad; Bessous, Noureddine; Rezaoui, ,Mohamed Mounir
    The present work applies a nonlinear model predictive current control (NLMPCC) approach to ac/dc pulse width modulation (PWM) rectifier. A cascade structure is used to regulate Dc-link voltage and grid currents. The outer loop objective is to regulate the Dc-link voltage to the desired value, providing the level of the required active power to be used with the reactive power to calculate the referencing current for the inner loop. In the inner loop, the proposed approach is considered. After that, the nonlinear model of the converter is developed, based on continuous minimization of predicted tracking errors, the voltage at the terminal of the converter is deduced. After that, a PWM block is used to generate gate signals. Simulation results are performed to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed control law

    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2021-06-03) Hebbal, Belkhir; Yacine, Marif; Kaddour, Abdelmadjid; Belhadj, Mustapha
    The bioclimatic approach looks into the opportunities for building conception under the local climatic conditions. The first bioclimatic chart has been developed by Olgyay which combines temperature with relative humidity to characterize the comfort zone. It is founded on outside climate conditions to identify attenuation measures such as solar radiation, wind speed, or shading to reach comfortable inside conditions. Givoni created also a bioclimatic chart founded on inside conditions using the physical and thermal properties of air. Bioclimatic approach strategies contribute to decreasing the building energy loads and increasing thermal comfort for its residents over the year. The principal aim of this research is to evaluate a bioclimatic approach to passive cooling for building design in Algeria's South using Givoni's Bioclimatic chart and Olgyay's Bioclimatic chart. Climate data of various locations (Ouargla, Ghardaia, and El Oued) within this area were collected and analyzed. Furthermore, an overview of appropriated conception strategies for the hot season for each zone is developed. The results show that the maximum average temperature from June to August at around 43.1°C. After applying passive cooling strategies, the temperature indoor can be decreased from about 26.1 to 31.4°C, which can be described as being in the comfort zone for the three studied locations. Finally, these findings can contribute to understanding the thermal behavior of residential buildings and offer guidelines to develop a convenient concept of what the building composition should look like in arid and hot climates.

    4E (Energy-Exergy-Economic-Environmental) performances assessment of different configurations of power cycles
    (جامعة الوادي - university of el oued, 2021-10-30) Meriche, slem; Chemoul, Adem; Boukelia, Taqiy Eddine
    Steam power plants are alimented by different sources of energy including fossil fuels or renewable ones such as solar thermal, biomass or geothermal. Thus, thermodynamic, economic and environmental analyses of different steam power cycles are highly required for identification and choice of the most effective and viable layout to be adopted in the installation. Consequently, the main aim of the present paper is to compare five different configurations of power cycles in terms of energy and exergy efficiencies, fuel and cooling water consumptions, CO2 emissions rate, as well as investment and operating costs, and net present value (NPV). The obtained results present relevant differences; the energy and exergy efficiencies of the fifth configuration similar to the one of Achouat power station are the highest with 41.9% and 39.5% respectively. On the other hand, this configuration shows better environmental performances represented by CO2 emission (46.12 kg/s), and water consumption for cooling (7.42 m3/s). Economically, there is a clear convergence in the NPV values for configurations with Reheating and Regeneration processes. Moreover, the fourth configuration is the best in terms of net present value (NPV) of 103.1(M€).
