ArticlePublication Open Access Determination of price zones during transition from uniform to zonal electricity market: A case study for Turkey(MDPI AG, 2021-02) Poyrazoğlu, Göktürk; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; POYRAZOĞLU, GöktürkIn the electricity market, different pricing models can be applied to increase market competitiveness. Different electricity systems use different market structures. Uniform marginal pricing, zonal marginal pricing, and nodal marginal pricing methods are commonly used market structures. For markets wishing to move from a uniform pricing structure to a more competitive zonal pricing structure, the determination of price zones is critical for achieving a competitive market that generates accurate price signals. Three different pricing zone detection algorithms are analyzed in this paper including the k-means clustering and queen/rook spatially constraint clustering. Finally, the results of a case study for the Turkish electricity system are shared to compare each method.ArticlePublication Open Access Co-optimization of transmission maintenance scheduling and production cost minimization(MDPI, 2019-08-01) Poyrazoğlu, Göktürk; Oh, H.; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; POYRAZOĞLU, GöktürkRegular transmission maintenance is important to keep the infrastructure resilient and reliable. Delays providing on-time maintenance increase the forced outage rate of those assets, causing unexpected changes in the operating conditions and even catastrophic consequences, such as local blackouts. The current process of maintenance schedule is based on the transmission owners' choice, with the final decision of system operator about the reliability. The requests are examined on a first-come, first-served basis, which means a regular maintenance request may be rejected, delaying the tasks that should be performed. To incorporate optimization knowledge into the transmission maintenance schedule, this study focuses on the co-optimization of maintenance scheduling and the production cost minimization. The mathematical model co-optimizes generation unit commitment and line maintenance scheduling while maintaining N-1 reliability criterion. Three case studies focusing on reliability, renewable energy delivery, and service efficiency are conducted leading up to 4% production cost savings as compared to the business-as-usual approach.ArticlePublication Metadata only A stochastic value estimation tool for electric vehicle charging points(Elsevier, 2021-07-15) Poyrazoğlu, Göktürk; Göktürk, Elvin Çoban; Industrial Engineering; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; GÖKTÜRK, Elvin Çoban; POYRAZOĞLU, GöktürkA stochastic value estimation tool serves as a planning tool with embedded modules for electrical and financial valuation of electric vehicle charging points.

The first program, the Planner, is a linear program that solves for the optimal size of the Nano-grid comprising a PV solar system and a battery energy storage system. The second program, the Operator, is a mixed integer linear program that uses resultant sizes from the Planner and other data and then solves for the optimal asset dispatch on an hourly basis throughout the whole horizon. 24-hours is used as the main optimization window, to be consistent with real case operations of day-ahead scheduling but longer windows were also tested with the Lookahead (LA) logic. A sensitivity to LA logic was applied for an analysis conducted on cost-effectiveness, system sustainability, and local energy sufficiency. It was shown that implementing two days of LA logic reduces the import cost by 44%. Nano-grid was considered in this study to test the capacity planning strategy, but the methodology is also applicable to larger schemes.Conference ObjectPublication Metadata only In-vehicle qi-compliant inductive wireless charging solutions: A review(IEEE, 2023) Güvercin, Ezgi; Poyrazoğlu, Göktürk; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; POYRAZOĞLU, Göktürk; Güvercin, EzgiIn-vehicle wireless charging systems are becoming increasingly popular in modern vehicles, providing a convenient and efficient way to recharge electronic devices while on the move. This article aims to provide an overview of the standard applied for wireless chargers in these systems, as well as the various inductive wireless power transfer methods used. It covers the design of transmitter and receiver circuits, including key design topologies such as coil selection, compensation methods, and quality factor, and explores the importance of choosing the most optimal methods and parameters for efficient and safe wireless charger design. The paper also highlights the crucial role of the Qi standard in ensuring compatibility and interoperability between different wireless charging devices, as well as the importance of prioritizing efficiency and security in the design of in-vehicle wireless charging systems. In particular, it examines two security solutions that are commonly used in these systems: Near Field Communication (NFC) and Foreign Object Detection (FOD). NFC technology allows two electronic devices, such as a smartphone and an in-vehicle wireless charger, to communicate with each other when they are nearby. This can help ensure that only authorized devices can access the wireless charger, preventing unauthorized access and ensuring safe and secure wireless charging. FOD technology, on the other hand, detects foreign objects that may be in the proximity of the wireless charger, such as metal objects or coins, and prevents the charger from operating if it detects such objects. This helps to prevent damage to the charger, or the electronic device being charged. Overall, this paper emphasizes the necessity and importance of developing efficient and secure in-vehicle wireless charging systems that comply with the Qi standard and incorporate NFC and FOD technologies to ensure reliable and convenient charging for modern vehicles.Conference ObjectPublication Metadata only Current balancing circuit design for parallel LED strings in QDOT high bright TV with dual-transformer LLC resonant topology(IEEE, 2022) Ersoy, Melisa; Poyrazoğlu, Göktürk; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; POYRAZOĞLU, Göktürk; Ersoy, MelisaNew LED technologies demand slim designs with increased backlight power. When the parallel-connected LED strings are driven by multiple transformers, the magnetic coupling difference and the LED string voltage difference cause backlight current mismatch problem. This imbalance causes the line with low voltage to draw more current hence to create heat spots on the backlight causing reduced lifetime. This problem is observed as backlight fluctuation at the end-user side. In this study, a cost-effective balancing circuit is simulated and implemented for eight parallel-connected LED strings using two transformers in an LLC half-bridge resonant topology while meeting the power demand in a relatively slim design. For the 145W backlight power, the current mismatch was 57.59% when there was an 8% deviation in transformer leakage inductance and a 10% variation between LED string voltages. The temperature difference between the strings was measured as 31. 8°C taken at room temperature with the open back cover. With the balancing circuit, the LED current difference being reduced to 9.99%. When the string voltages are the same, the maximum deviation in the current is measured as 2.59%.Conference ObjectPublication Metadata only Multi-criteria decision model for the assessment of offshore wind energy potential of Tunisia(IEEE, 2021-05-05) Zahmoul, Houda; El Sayed, Ahmad; Poyrazoğlu, Göktürk; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; POYRAZOĞLU, Göktürk; Zahmoul, Houda; El Sayed, AhmadThis paper investigates the potential for the development of offshore wind power plants in Tunisia. The goal of this research is to increase the possibility of using renewable energy available in the country and reduce the dependence on fossil fuels. The data used for the analysis is obtained from remote sensing satellites and weather stations located across the country's coastal regions. A multi-criteria decision model is built to perform geographic and technical analysis of the study area. This research reveals locations suitable for wind turbine installations. The results of this study aid the transition to wind energy with its optimal adaptation in Tunisia. Only 7% of Tunisian offshore territory is found fit for the deployment of fixed-bottom wind farms. Six locations, in particular, were chosen in the Gulf of Tunisia, Gabes, Sousse, Sfax, Bizerte, and Djerba. The GIS-based methodology proposed in this paper can be applied to other offshore wind farm allocation investigations. The environmental impact of proposed wind farms on GHG reduction and employment opportunities are investigated. The suggested wind farms will reduce the GHG emissions and the energy price in Tunisia as well as create new jobs for society.Conference ObjectPublication Metadata only The potential and economic analysis of grid-connected solar PV power in Kenya(IEEE, 2019-06) Samu, Remember; Poyrazoğlu, Göktürk; Fahrioglu, M.; Electrical & Electronics Engineering; POYRAZOĞLU, Göktürk; Samu, RememberThis present study is aimed at minimizing the dependence on fossil fuels thus reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and also to curb for the rising energy demands in Kenya. 23 locations are considered for their techno-economic potential of installation of a 10MW grid-connected photovoltaic (PV).
