Desenvolvimento de monitoramento remoto em um sistema híbrido isolado de pequeno porte

Este trabalho visa avaliar as dificuldades e utilidades do monitoramento remoto de um sistema para o atendimento de cargas isoladas da rede elétrica, envolvendo sistemas reais em operação que podem ajudar a identificar os principais fatores que influenciam na vida útil desses dispositivos, tornando possível propor estratégias e tecnologias que melhorem a confiabilidade do sistema, possibilitem uma configuração mais adequada e reduzam os custos globais do sistema ao longo de sua vida útil. Para isso foi incorporado um sistema de monitoramento remoto via LabVIEW a um sistema híbrido isolado insta-lado em flutuante localizada as margens do lago da cidade de Tefé-AM. O sistema de geração foi composto inicialmente por um gerador fotovoltaico (FV) com potência de 2,08 kWp, dois subgeradores 1,04 kWp cada, e depois ampliado para 2,6 Wp mais 350 Wp de geração eólica. Além disso, um banco de acumuladores eletroquímicos com tensão nominal de 24 V e composto por 20 baterias de 150 Ah cada, Dois controladores de carga 24 V / 40 A e um inversor de onda senoidal de 1.500 VA. Resultados de operacionais apresentados neste trabalho ajudam a entender melhor o funcionamento desses sistemas e avaliar as barreiras encontradas no monitoramento remoto dessas unidades. Esse expe-rimento foi realizado em parceria do laboratório do Grupo de Estudos e Desenvolvimento de Alternativas Energéticas na Universidade Federal do Pará com o Núcleo de Inovação tecnológica do Instituto de Desenvolvimento Sustentável Mamirauá.

Evolução de um sistema lacustre árido Permiano, parte superior da Formação Pedra de Fogo, borda oeste da Bacia do Parnaíba

Análise faciológica e estratigráfica realizada na região de Filadélfia, TO, borda oeste da Bacia do Parnaíba, permitiu redefinir o paleoambiente da parte superior da Formação Pedra de Fogo, de idade permiana. Os depósitos estudados constituem uma sucessão de aproximadamente 100 m de espessura, predominantemente siliciclástica, com carbonatos e evaporitos subordinados, onde foram definidas 21 fácies sedimentares agrupadas em seis associações de fácies (AF): AF1) Lacustre com rios efêmeros; AF2) Lago influenciado por ondas de tempestade; AF3) Sabkha continental; AF4) Lago central; AF5) Dunas eólicas; e AF6) Lago/oásis com inundito. Estas associações indicam que durante o Permiano, um extenso sistema lacustre de clima árido, desenvolveu-se adjacente a campos de dunas eólicas e sabkha continental, com contribuições de rios efêmeros. Incursões fluviais nos lagos propiciavam a formação de lobos de suspensão e fluxos em lençol (AF1). Planícies de sabkha (AF3) formaram-se nas porções marginais do lago que, eventualmente eram influenciados por ondas de tempestades (AF2), enquanto zonas centrais eram sítios de intensa deposição pelítica (AF4). O baixo suprimento de areia eólica neste sistema propiciou a formação de um campo de dunas restrito (AF5), com desenvolvimento de lagos de interdunas (oásis), onde proliferavam núcleos de samambaias gigantes, inundados esporadicamente por rios efêmeros (AF6). Os dados faciológicos, corroborados pela paleogeografia da região durante o Permiano Superior, indicam que a sedimentação da parte superior da Formação Pedra de Fogo ocorreu sob condições climáticas quentes e áridas.

Geração de energia renovável em residências: aplicação de tecnologias existentes

Due to the high value of the bill that the Brazilian has been paying, one of the most expensive in the world, is becoming increasingly attractive the option for renewable energy in form of distributed micro and minigeneration. In other words, the renewable energy sources are becoming attractive not only because of environmental concerns, but also due to economic issues. This has become even more relevant and concrete after approval of rules by National Agency of Electric Energy (ANEEL) on 4/17/2012 (Normative Resolution n ° 482/2012 of 04/17/2012) aimed at reducing barriers to installation of small distributed generation, including microgeneration, with up to 100 kW of power, and minigeneration, 100 kW to 1 MW. The Normative Resolution n ° 482/2012 creates the Energy Clearing System, which allows consumers to install small generators in its consumer unit and exchange energy with the local distributor. The rule applies to generators that use renewable sources of energy (hydro, solar, biomass, wind and cogeneration qualified). In this context, this paper presents a technical and economic analysis of installing a residential microgenerating plant composed of photovoltaic cells, solar panels and small wind turbines

Viabilidade de turbinas eólicas de pequeno porte no Brasil

Facing a global scenario where oil is scarce and the emission of CO2 in the atmosphere is a world concern, the search for new methods of energy production becomes the focus of all countries. Based on these assumptions, the wind power gains highlight and happen to be the most exploited around the world, since this does not produce toxic waste, since it uses the wind, no raw material shortage and its cost and efficiency are increasingly attractive. Taking advantage of the geographical features of Brazil, coastal and territorial extension, this study aims to analyze the feasibility of using wind turbines widely used in Germany, one of the countries with the highest production of energy through wind, in Brazil. In order to increase the energy production without causing more environmental impacts, geographical analyses will be made, and to determine the features and costs of production of this type of energy generation, and at the end of this dissertation, will finish for one of the turbines, Montana, is it feasible to install, however due to the Government's little incentive return is not very expressive. With respect to the turbine Passaat, this is infeasible to install under current conditions

Análise cinemática e dinâmica para conversão de um VW saveiro em veículo elétrico

This work aims to kinematic and dynamic analysis of a VW Saveiro in order to estimate the power requested to the engine with the imposed movement conditions. Thus, the study will be the basis to the specification of the electric engine, on the conversion of the internal combustion vehicle into electric one. First of all, a literature review was done in order to understand the state of the art for this issue and come up with the technical features of the vehicle in question. The next step is the identification and calculation of all forces acting on the prototype in motion, from 0 to 120 km/h, in intervals of 10 km/h, under the defined conditions of path and time. Then, were determined the values of the torque and rotation of the components from the transmission system, as well as the engine power, for each speed range. The results show the most influential forces on the resistence of the movement in each speed range, and the behavior of the torque curve is verified. Finally, it was also analyzed the implementation of pinwheels on the frontal area of the vehicle, in order to convert wind energy into electrical energy to supply the lighting subsystem of the vehicle and the proposal was validated. Limiting the maximum speed of the vehicle to 90 km/h, it was finally concluded that the power of the electric engine should be 40 HP

Análise comparativa entre Brasil e Alemanha sobre autoprodução de energia elétrica residencial

The energy crisis has affected many countries. With the growing warning with the emission in the atmosphere and the lack of resources, the seek for sustainable sources for energy genaration have become even bigger. Some Countries, as Germany, started first in this journey, creating an incentive program to self-generation with renewable sources (wind, photovoltaics, biomass, etc.), giving priority for smaller plants. In Germany the program called EEG started in 2004. In Brazil, since the beggining of 2012, the self-generators did not know how they could be beneficted for self-generation, and self-generation didn't become commun in the country. However, with NR 482, of April 17th, 2012, the parameters were defined, and the self-generator could have a guideline. Therewith, studyies can be redirected for a better knowlegde of the conditions the self-generator will be sujected, in addition to Germany's case as reference to compare with Brazil's case. In this paper these studies are made, focused in wind power (wind turbines) and photovoltaic panels

Aplicação do AHP em um caso de escolha dos modais de transporte para a movimentação das partes de um aerogerador

Wind power is a type of energy that is still not too explored in Brazil and, because of the lack of experience in projects of this size, there are still some problems during the stages of planning and execution of wind farms projects. One of these problems is related with the parts’ transportation logistics, since these parts are difficult to transport, because of their length, weight or shape. Furthermore, another aggravating factor is the lack of options regarding to the transportation modals that are available to do the route between the manufacture place and the project site. To help in the decision-making process about the ideal transportation configuration, aiming to reduce the dependence of the logistics’ coordinator, it was chosen to use he AHP method to compare some criteria that have influence in the modal’s choice process. The criteria, determined by the members of the company’s logistics’ department, are: transportation costs, transportation time and the risk of causing damages to the cargo. The results shown by this model, using theoretical background, that standardize the processes related to the modal’s choice
