Metaheuristic optimization approach has become the new framework for control synthesis. The main purposed of the control design are input (command) tracking and load (disturbance) regulating. This research proposes an optimal proportional-derivative (PID) controller design for the brushless dc (BLDC) motor speed control system with input tracking and load regulating constrained optimization by using the cuckoo search (CuS) one of the most efficient population-based metaheuristic optimization techniques. The sum-squared error between population-based metaheuristic optimization techniques. The sum-squared error between the referent input and the controlled output is set as the objective function to be minimized. The rise time the maximum overshoot settling time and steady-state error are set as inequality constraints for tracking purpose while the regulating time and the maximum overshoot of load regulation are set as inequality constraints for regulating purpose. Results obtained by the CuS will be compared with those obtained by the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA). From simulation results it was found that the parameters of CuS were optimal than both PSO and GA for BLDC motor speed control system satisfying the preset input tracking and load regulating constraints. In addition the simulation results are confirmed by the experimental ones from the BLDC motor speed control system developed in the laboratory.

As the worlds energy resources are currently insufficient to meet human needs energy-saving and energy-efficient appliances have to be invented that are readily available and accessible to everyone. To have enough energy to meet human needs and to reduce the waste from the waste of energy resources each year to meet the demand for energy that can be produced by itself. This research presents the construction of a portable DC to AC voltage converter or “Constrution of Portable DC to AC Voltage Converter” which can be operated through a solar cell. By charging energy from the sun and storing energy at the battery. and can also bring electrical energy to use inside the pressure converter There is an inverter circuit that converts voltage from DC to AC so that AC power can be used in daily life. which has a lighting system power socket USB port and helps reduce electricity bills in the house and is convenient to carry From the experimental results of creating a portable DC to AC voltage converter it can be used in daily life and saves electricity and is also clean energy from sunlight that does not cause pollution like a generator that uses oil. be a generator

Rail transport is a type of transportation that strongly influences economic due to its ability to transport a large number of passengers and products per trip relying on diesel-electric engines. The objectives of this thesis were set to investigate and develop the electrical performance tracking system of long-distance diesel electric locomotives and compare the electrical performance measured by the diesel electric locomotive performance tracking system and measured from the measuring instrument at Diesel Engine Maintenance Station in Bang Sue. The electric diesel locomotive no. 4513 (Cummins KTA50-L) was selected as the study subject of the experimentation. The results showed that the power loss of the diesel electric locomotive from the conversion of alternating current to direct current was inversely proportional to the engine speed. The power losses between the low and high engine speeds were equal to 77.11 and 2.49 percent respectively. The above data reflects the limitation of diesel electric engine performance and should lead to the construction of a database for making decision on the right engine selection suitable for the towing load of the locomotive.

The objective of this paper is to construct the solar car prototype. The car uses flexible solar panels with the battery as a power source. Thereafter the performance of the solar car is tested in the actual condition. This solar car’s body was developed by fiberglass and the internal structure was made from the steel. This car uses the 2 kW brushless DC motor to be the prime mover and the motor is driven by the regenerative dc converter. The power sources are 480 watts of the flexible solar panel with a charger to charge power to four of 12V 33Ah battery. The total weight of the solar car is 173 kg. The solar car’s weight including driver is about 233.4 kg. The solar car test drive is on 10 km distance. The result found that the car has: (1) the average speed is equal to 45.98km/h by using only battery (2) the average speed is equal to 51 km/h when the battery is combined with solar panels. This knowledge should be applied to develop the next version of the solar racing car.

Electronic load is an importance part of power supplies testing system. For non-electronic load type it is required to replace a resister with a new one leading to complicated working procedure. The modern power electronic technology is employ to solve this problem. The electronic load can vary the value following user command. Imported electronic load is costly leading Thailand to have a balance of trade deficit. This article proposes design and implement of an economical cost 30V 1 k DC-Electronic Load controlled by Microcontroller. The tested results can confirm the validity of this proposed electronic load
