    Abstract: The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is widely acknowledged for clean distributed power generation use, but critical process problems frequently occur when the stand-alone fuel cell is directly linked with the electricity grid. To guarantee the optimal operation of the SOFC in a power system, it is essential, that its generation ramp rate and load foll... Show More

    Abstract: Switched reluctance motors (SRM) have a wide range of applications in industries due to the special properties of this motor. However, because of its dynamical nonlinearities, so the problems control of SRM is complex. This paper proposed an adaptive intelligent controller for SRM with the aim to improve the ripple of torque. First, we use a fuzzy ... Show More
