Helmholtz resonators are widely used to control low frequency noise propagating in pipes. In this paper, the elastic bottom plate of Helmholtz resonator is simplified as a single degree of freedom (SDOF) vibration system with acoustic excitation, and a one-dimensional lumped-parameter analytical model was developed to accurately characterize the structure-acoustic coupling and sound transmission loss (STL) of a Helmholtz resonator with an elastic bottom plate. The effect of dynamical parameters of elastic bottom plate on
Since pure tobacco stalk (TS) biomass pellet fuels tend to slag, five anti-slagging agents were added to the crushed TS to obtain a pellet fuel that could be used in biomass burners to provide heat for tobacco curing. The obtained results revealed that the main component of TS pellet fuel was K2Si2O5. During fuel combustion process, additives generated higher melting point silicate compounds by Al–K, Ca–K, and Ca–K elemental structures to replace single K elemental structure
With the increasing penetration of renewable energy in power system, renewable energy power ramp events (REPREs), dominated by wind power and photovoltaic power, pose significant threats to the secure and stable operation of power systems. This paper presents an early warning method for REPREs based on long short-term memory (LSTM) network and fuzzy logic. First, the warning levels of REPREs are defined by assessing the control costs of various power control measures. Then, the next
This paper introduces the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to enhance the Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) process. The key objective is to mitigate the issues of lengthy computation times and low computational accuracy typically encountered when applying Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) to LHS for probabilistic trend calculations. The PSO method optimizes sample distribution, enhances global search capabilities, and significantly boosts computational efficiency. To validate its effectiveness, the proposed method was applied to IEEE34 and IEEE-118
To enhance the refinement of load decomposition in power systems and fully leverage seasonal change information to further improve prediction performance, this paper proposes a seasonal short-term load combination prediction model based on modal decomposition and a feature-fusion multi-algorithm hybrid neural network model.

First, the improved complete ensemble empirical modal decomposition with adaptive noise (ICEEMDAN) method is employed…
The grid-forming virtual synchronous generator (GFVSG) not only employs a first-order low-pass filter for virtual inertia control but also introduces grid-connected active power (GCAP) dynamic oscillation issues, akin to those observed in traditional synchronous generators. In response to this, an improved strategy for lead-lag filter based GFVSG (LLF-GFVSG) is presented in this article. Firstly, the grid-connected circuit structure and control principle of typical GFVSG are described, and a closed-loop small-signal model for GCAP in GFVSG
Investigating flexibility and stability boosting transmission expansion planning (TEP) methods can increase the renewable energy (RE) consumption of the power systems.

First, we established the TEP framework of VSC-DC, by introducing the evaluation indices to quantify the power system flexibility and stability. Subsequently, we propose a bi-level VSC-DC TEP model: the upper-level model acquires the…
Currently, the operational performance assessment system in the power market primarily focuses on power generation and electricity retail companies, lacking a system tailored to the operational characteristics of power generation/selling integrated companies. Therefore, this article proposes an assessment index system for assessing the operational performance of a power generation/selling integrated company, encompassing three dimensions: basic capacity, development potential, and external environment. A dynamic proportional adjustment coefficient is designed, along with a subjective and objective weighting

In the context of China’s “double carbon” goals and rural revitalization strategy, the energy transition promotes the large-scale integration of distributed renewable energy into rural power grids. Considering the operational characteristics of rural microgrids and their impact on users, this paper establishes a two-layer scheduling model incorporating flexible loads. The upper-layer aims to minimize the comprehensive operating cost of the rural microgrid, while the lower-layer aims to minimize the total electricity cost for rural users.
There are obstacles to the widespread use of small electric vehicles (EVs) in Rwanda, including concerns regarding the battery range and lifespan. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) play an important role in EVs. However, their performance declines over time because of several factors. To optimize battery management systems and extend the range of EVs in Rwanda, it is essential to understand the influence of the driving profiles on lithium-ion battery degradation. This study analyzed the degradation patterns…
A robust scheduling optimization method for wind–fire storage system distribution based on the mixed carbon trading mechanism is proposed to improve the rationality of carbon emission quota allocation while reducing the instability of large-scale wind power access systems. A hybrid carbon trading mechanism that combines short-term and long-term carbon trading is constructed, and a fuzzy set based on Wasserstein measurement is proposed to address the uncertainty of wind power access. Moreover, a robust scheduling optimization
As the large-scale development of wind farms (WFs) progresses, the connection of WFs to the regional power grid is evolving from the conventional receiving power grid to the sending power grid with a high proportion of wind power (WP). Due to the randomness of WP output, higher requirements are put forward for the voltage stability of each node of the regional power grid, and various reactive power compensation devices (RPCDs) need to be rationally configured…
