• A computational intelligence-based maximum power point tracking for photovoltaic power generation system with small‐signal analysis 

      Senapati, Manoj Kumar; Pradhan, Chittaranjan; Calay, Rajnish Kaur (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-10-01)
      There are multiple peak functions in its output power characteristic curve of a photovoltaic (PV) array under partial shading conditions (PSCs), the perturb and observe (P&O) may fail to track the global maximum power point (GMPP). Therefore, a reliable maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique is essential to track the GMPP within an appropriate time. This article proposes a hybrid technique ...
    • Review of the State-of-the-art Sewer Monitoring and Maintenance Systems Pune Municipal Corporation - A Case Study 

      Patil, Ravindra Rajaram; Ansari, Saniya M.; Calay, Rajnish Kaur; Mustafa, Mohamad Y. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-26)
      There is an increasing trend of using automated and robotic systems for the tasks that are hazardous or inconvenient and dirty for humans. Sewers maintenance and cleaning is such a task where robots are already being used for inspection of underground pipes for blockages and damage. This paper reviews the existing robotic systems and various platforms and algorithms along with their capabilities and ...
    • Role and Important Properties of a Membrane with Its Recent Advancement in a Microbial Fuel Cell 

      Banerjee, Aritro; Calay, Rajnish Kaur; Eregno, Fasil Ejigu (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-09)
      Microbial fuel cells (MFC) are an emerging technology for wastewater treatment that utilizes the metabolism of microorganisms to generate electricity from the organic matter present in water directly. The principle of MFC is the same as hydrogen fuel cell and has three main components (i.e., anode, cathode, and proton exchange membrane). The membrane separates the anode and cathode chambers and ...
    • Simplified Thermal Performance Evaluation of a PCM-Filled Triple-Glazed Window under Arctic Climate Conditions 

      Riise, Raymond; Calay, Rajnish Kaur; Ravasio, Lucrezia (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-02)
      This paper evaluates the thermal performance of a triple-glazed glass window filled with a phase-change material (PCM) compared to the performance of a traditional triple-glazed window with air gaps. The chosen PCM was paraffin wax. A mathematical model to simulate heat transfer within the system was presented. A commercially available software, COMSOL Multiphysics, was used to numerically solve the ...
