    Automatic Classification of Defective Photovoltaic Module Cells Based on a Novel CNN-PCA-SVM Deep Hybrid Model in Electroluminescence Images

    Imak, Andac

    In today’s world, the rapid development of photovoltaic (PV) power plants has facilitated sustainable energy production. Maintenance and defect detection play crucial roles in ensuring the continuity of energy production. The manual inspection of electroluminescence (EL) images of PV modules requires significant human power and time investment. This study presents a method for the automatic fault detection of PV cells in EL images using hybrid deep features optimized with a principal component analysis (PCA) feature selection algorithm. A lightweight and high-performance model that combines the strengths of convolutional neural network (CNN) architectures was proposed. First, data augmentation techniques were employed owing to the imbalance between the defective and functional classes in the dataset containing EL images. In experimental studies conducted by integrating the PCA algorithm into MobileNetV2, DenseNet201, and InceptionV3 CNN models, accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score values of 92.19%, 92%, 90%, and 91%, respectively, were achieved. When the results were analyzed, it was observed that the proposed method was effective in detecting faults in PV panel cells.

    Exploring Triboelectric Properties in Sputtered Si(100)/SiO2/Cr/ZnO Thin Films - Ag/FEP Using Contact Speration Technique for Renewable Energy Harvesting

    Yüzüak, Gizem Durak; Benhala, B.; Raihani, A.; Qbadou, M.

    Currently, there is an ongoing inquiry into triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG), which use the triboelectric phenomenon to capture electrical energy from mechanical vibrations. The work aims to figure out the magnetron sputtered Cr/ZnO-based films on SiO2/Si(100) substrates with the construction of a Cr/ZnO-Ag/FEP tribo-based nanogenerator (TENG) and a specific emphasis on measuring TENG properties. The structural investigation of these films was conducted using X-ray diffraction (XRD) photoluminescence (PL), attenuated total reflectance fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (AT-FTIR), and current - voltage (I-V) analysis in contact-separation mode (CSM). The Cr/ZnO-Ag/FEP TENG has a notable instantaneous maximum output voltage of around 63 V and a current density of 7 μA/cm2 when compared to other nanogenerators based on semiconductors, as determined by a comparative analysis. The results of this study provide useful information on the possible application of optimized magnetron sputtered Cr/ZnO-based films in triboelectric and energy harvesting systems, which might contribute to the progress of sustainable and renewable energy technologies.

    Ensemble Learning Framework for DDoS Detection in SDN-Based SCADA Systems

    Oyucu, Saadin; Polat, Onur; Türkoğlu, Muammer; Polat, Hüseyin; Aksöz, Ahmet; Ağdaş, Mehmet Tevfik

    Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems play a crucial role in overseeing and controlling renewable energy sources like solar, wind, hydro, and geothermal resources. Nevertheless, with the expansion of conventional SCADA network infrastructures, there arise significant challenges in managing and scaling due to increased size, complexity, and device diversity. Using Software Defined Networking (SDN) technology in traditional SCADA network infrastructure offers management, scaling and flexibility benefits. However, as the integration of SDN-based SCADA systems with modern technologies such as the Internet of Things, cloud computing, and big data analytics increases, cybersecurity becomes a major concern for these systems. Therefore, cyber-physical energy systems (CPES) should be considered together with all energy systems. One of the most dangerous types of cyber-attacks against SDN-based SCADA systems is Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. DDoS attacks disrupt the management of energy resources, causing service interruptions and increasing operational costs. Therefore, the first step to protect against DDoS attacks in SDN-based SCADA systems is to develop an effective intrusion detection system. This paper proposes a Decision Tree-based Ensemble Learning technique to detect DDoS attacks in SDN-based SCADA systems by accurately distinguishing between normal and DDoS attack traffic. For training and testing the ensemble learning models, normal and DDoS attack traffic data are obtained over a specific simulated experimental network topology. Techniques based on feature selection and hyperparameter tuning are used to optimize the performance of the decision tree ensemble models. Experimental results show that feature selection, combination of different decision tree ensemble models, and hyperparameter tuning can lead to a more accurate machine learning model with better performance detecting DDoS attacks against SDN-based SCADA systems.

    Stress–strength reliability for electricity systems based on the Bernstein copula approximation

    Susam, Selim Orhun; Hudaverdi, Burcu

    Electricity is a critical resource for modern society, and its availability is essential for various aspects of daily life, from powering homes to supporting industrial processes and infrastructure. Ensuring a reliable supply of electricity is vital for economic stability and the well-being of a population. As the world moves toward more sustainable and renewable energy sources, understanding the reliability of these sources compared to traditional fossil fuels is crucial. In this study, we develop a methodology that enables the measurement of stress–strength reliability when electricity consumption is considered as the strength variable, positioned between electricity generation from renewable energy sources and fossil fuels as stress variables. We achieve this using the copula-based reliability with Bernstein copula approximation. The methodology is applied to the U.S. monthly electricity data. The result shows that the current rates of electricity output from fossil fuels and renewables will not be sufficient to meet the demand for electricity.

    Dogan, Ebru; Altin, Serdar; Guler, Seval Hale; Guler, Omer; Altin, Emine

    In this study, a high entropy oxide material was fabricated from its alloy using mechanical alloying technique in the form of (FeNiMnCrV)3O4 with a symmetry of Fd-3m, and their structural properties were investigated by XRD, SEM-EDS dot mapping, and XPS analyses. The EDS analysis results of oxide and alloy show that Fe, Ni, Mn, Cr, and V have similar ratios for both samples. The elemental ratios were also measured by ICP-MS and the results support the EDS and XPS data. The alloy and oxide powders were used for the production of the anode materials for the half-cell configuration of the battery. The CV analysis of both cells showed that they have similar characteristic redox reactions and the main difference between the two electrodes is the current density values in the peaks. The initial capacity value of the (FeNiMnCrV)3O4 for 10 mA/g was found as 1070 mAh/g for the first cycle which is promising results as an anode material for Li-ion cells.

    Modeling of Optimal Power Generation in Small Hydropower Plants

    Kahraman, Gokhan

    Small hydropower plants (SHPs) have gained international attention as a reliable and versatile renewable energy source. Unfortunately, this energy source is not used efficiently. This is because these systems utilize headwaters with lower water capacity called forebays instead of large water reservoirs like dams. Since this hinders the control of electricity generation, the headwater is either wasted before it can be converted into electricity or it is exhausted very quickly and electricity generation stops after a short time. The aim of this study is to prevent the loss of electricity generation through the efficient use of SHP headwater. For this purpose, a mathematical model was created based on two SHPs operating in tandem. The mathematical model obtained was analyzed, and forebay water level simulation graphs for electricity generation at water flowrates of 2000, 4000, 6000, and 8000 kg/h were obtained. With the help of the obtained graphs, critical wicket gate openings for maximum electricity generation at flowrates of 2000, 4000, 6000, and 8000 kg/h were calculated. The results of this study are applicable to all SHPs. These results are also promising in terms of optimizing the use of a renewable energy source.

    Optimizing the thermoelectric performance of Bi-Sb-Te thin films through compositional engineering

    Yüzüak, Gizem Durak; Çetin, Mehmet; Yüzüak, Ercüment

    The objective of the present investigation was to systematically investigate the structural and thermoelectric (TE) properties of BixSb2-xTe3 thin films with varying content of Bi. We investigated the impact of different atomic percentages of Bi (4, 6, 8 at. %) on the properties of carrier transport and TE performance. In general, the Seebeck coefficient remained consistent across the thin films. For the 8 at. % Bi thin film, the Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity were measured at 230 μV/K and 730 S/cm, respectively, at room temperature. These values were more than 20 times greater than the electrical conductivity observed in the thin films with compositions of 6 and 4 at. % Bi. As a result, the Bi-Sb-Te compound exhibited a TE power factor (PF) of 38x10−4 W/mK2 at 40 °C, surpassing the PFs observed in previous compositions. The analysis of surface microstructure, combined with atomic force microscopy and Kelvin probe microscopy images, revealed that the transport of carriers in films with high Bi content was impeded by the size of particles and scattering sites. On the other hand, an augmentation in Bi content promoted the transfer of charge through crystalline regions, hence improving the mobility of carriers and the total electrical conductivity. The aforementioned results emphasize the significant influence of Bi content on the electrical properties of semiconductors and demonstrate the effectiveness of compositional engineering based on Bi content in the development of TE materials with superior performance. The present study investigates the influence of Bi content on the electrical properties of Bi-Sb-Te thin films, demonstrating that compositional adjustments based on Bi content can impact the performance of TE materials. These findings contribute to the understanding of material optimization in the field of TE.

    Dynamic Analysis and Metallographic Examination of Linings with Different Composite Contents used in the Brakes of a Hydraulic Turbine

    Işık, Erdem; Kahraman, Gökhan

    The main aim of this study was to find ways to increase the performance and life of generator brake linings, which can lead to cost reduction and adequate downtime periods for hydroelectric power plants. First, the dynamic analysis of the linings used in hydraulic turbines was realized and their reactions were examined under different operating conditions. Second, two types of brake linings with different composite components produced in the market were examined metallographically and tested to determine both the stopping performance and durability time of the turbine-generator unit for a sufficient period of time in the vertical 150-megawatt Francis turbine with approximately 500 tons of rotary weight. As a result of these experiments, the lining with the boron component led to much better results than the other brake linings. It has been determined that the boron-containing lining makes 100 stops more than the other lining and stops 20 s earlier in one stop. Therefore, the use of a composite lining with boron content in the braking systems of hydroelectric power plants significantly reduces maintenance incidents and operation costs as it prolongs brake replacement periods in these plants.

    An innovative approach in oat milk production: Ohmic heating

    Ak, Ferit; Karakavuk, Emrah; Goksu, Ali; Sabancı, Serdal

    This study aimed to produce oat-milk by using the ohmic heating (OH) system and to compare some quality properties of this milk with the milk produced by conventional methods. The solution containing oats was heated from 20 °C to 75 °C using 3 different voltage-gradients, and then oat-milk was obtained by applying a series of processes. It has been determined that as the voltage gradient increased during heating in oat milk production, the processing time shortens, and this time was 482 seconds in the conventional heating process. The effective electrical conductivity values increased as the temperature increased in the OH process during the production of oat-milk and these values vary between 0.13 and 0.41 S/m. Also, some quality characteristics of oat milk such as color and total phenolic content were better preserved in milk obtained by the OH process than conventional heating process. In addition, oat milk obtained by OH process had higher apparent viscosity at all temperatures.

    Evaluating the metallographic properties and performance of heat transfer by natural convection of graphene-coated glass used for heating

    Kahraman, Gökhan; Taşgın, Yahya

    In this study, a decorative electric heater was manufactured to reduce carbon emissions related to residential and office heating, and this heater was metallographically evaluated. In addition, the heating performance of the manufactured plate was investigated by examining its heat transfer capacity by natural convection. For this purpose, the surface of the tempered glass plate was coated with graphene by spraying to improve its electrical and heat conduction properties. Copper strips were attached to both sides of the plate to allow for an electric current. The plate was connected to mains electricity, and its change in surface temperature over time was measured. Using the measured temperature values, the heat transfer rate by natural convection on the plate surface was calculated. As a result of the calculations, it was determined that the graphene-coated tempered glass plate reached a heating performance of 40 watts after 2400 s of electrical energy supply. This value can be increased by increasing the heat transfer surface area. This study, taking advantage of the excellent thermophysical properties of graphene, will contribute to other studies conducted in this field.

    Çilingir, Seda; Duran, Gülseven; Gökyildiz, Beritan; Goksu, Ali; Sabanci, Serdal; Cevik, Mutlu

    Ohmic heating-assisted extraction has emerged as an effective method preferred in recent years. This extraction method is affected by experimental factors such as temperature, process time, and voltage gradient. The present study aimed to optimize the pectin extraction process from lemon peel powder samples by the ohmic heating-assisted extraction method. In this study, the effects of 3 different voltage gradients (7, 9, and 11 V/cm), 3 different solid to liquid ratios (1:20 g/mL, 1:40 g/mL, and 1:60 g/mL), and 3 different holding times (0, 60, and 120 min) and their interactions were investigated to determine the optimum extraction condition at constant temperature (80 °C) and pH = 1 sulfuric acid solution. The factors examined in the optimization procedure were pectin yield, power consumption, and energy efficiency. The optimum conditions were found to be 11 V/cm voltage gradient, 1:60 g/mL solid to liquid ratio, and 120-min holding time with a desirability value of 0.778. The results of this study could give important information about the design of industrial scale ohmic heating units, especially from different food wastes in industrial pectin production.

    Derse, Onur; Göçmen, Elifcan

    Environmental concerns prompt the world for a transition to renewable energy sources from fossil energy. Reducing the dependency on non-renewable sources of energy is prerequisite for the sustainable world and less environmental pollution. Biogas energy, which is one of the most important renewable energy sources, is produced by burning organic wastes and can be used in many different fields. In this study, a two-stage approach is undertaken to optimize a biogas supply chain design by incorporating of 30 districts in Izmir. In the first stage, the selection of the most suitable biogas plants is considered by the goal programming approach, which is of great importance to decide the optimal location with high energy potential. The most suitable sites for the biogas plants are obtained as Konak and Narlıdere districts. In the second stage, the location problem of the biogas vehicle charging stations (BVS) for biogas vehicles is handled considering the results of the first stage using mixed integer linear programming (MILP) approach. Computational results demonstrate that it would be more appropriate to establish BVS in 12 districts of İzmir. The model and solution approach are pioneering for supply chain problems and an efficient tool for renewable energy plans.

    Sabanci, Serdal; Çevik, Mutlu; Goksu, Ali

    Depending on the developing technology, people's use of alternative heating methods is increasing. In the present study, a solution of lemon peel powder prepared with 3 different acids (sulphuric, hydrochloric, and nitric acid) was heated from 20 °C to 80 °C at a constant pH of 1.5, solid: liquid ratio (1:40), and a voltage gradient of 10 V/cm. It is aimed to investigate the change of electrical conductivity value and the effect of acid type on pectin yield at the end of 10 minutes of processing time at 80 °C extraction temperature. As a result of the experiments, the heating times of the samples in the ohmic heating-assisted extraction system varied between 199 and 252 s, and the electrical conductivity values varied between 0.89 and 2.10 S/m. In addition, the electrical conductivity value increased in 3 different acid types as the temperature value increased. Also, pectin yield values for 3 different acid types varied between 8.88% and 10.72%, and the highest pectin yield was obtained in the extraction process obtained from the solution prepared with sulfuric acid. It was determined that the use of different acid types had a significant effect on the heating time, electrical conductivity, and pectin yield (p0.05). According to the results, it has been determined that pectin extraction can be done successfully using the ohmic heating-assisted extraction system. It is expected that the data obtained from the use of current heating methods in the extraction of such products will make a serious contribution to the literature.

    Application of a new dynamic analysis method to pid controlled speed governors in hydroelectric power plants

    Işık, Erdem; Kahraman, Gökhan

    Hydroelectric power plants are environmental-friendly as they are renewable energy sources and make great contributions to the economies. In addition, they are in the state of insurance of the electricity network, since they can respond to the power demands of the electricity network in a very short time. In this study, the effect of the speed governors dispense valve has been added to the classical control mechanism in order to accurately predict the reaction of hydroelectric power plants to the load requirement of the electrical network. As a result of the dynamic analysis, the data obtained in the simulation environment have been compared with the responses of the real hydraulic turbine. The results show that when the dynamic analysis of the speed governor dispense valve is added to the classical control mechanism, the power response behavior in the simulation environment becomes closer to the real hydraulic turbine behavior. These results will assist speed governor designers in predicting real-like behavior in hydroelectric power plants.

    Application of the Ohmic Heating Process to Make a Semolina Dessert with Milk

    Sabanci, Serdal; Omaç, Basrı; Yüksel, Hatice Pınar

    Traditional milk desserts are one of the most essential dessert groups that Turkish society consumes. Due to foaming activity, it was aimed to investigate the feasibility of the ohmic heating system to produce a semolina dessert with milk. Hence, an ohmic heating treatment was used to heat the milk, semolina, and sugar mix from 20°C to 100°C using three different voltage gradients (15, 17.5, and 20 V/cm) and then boil for two minutes. It was found that the current value escalated from 20°C to approximately 86°C but decreased after 86°C due to foaming. Since the total consumed energy during the ohmic cooking treatment was inversely proportional to the treatment time, the total consumed energy values decreased based on the rising voltage gradient. As a result, the feasibility of the ohmic heating treatment for making a traditional semolina dessert with milk was determined in this study.
