    Current density-voltage analyses and interface characterization in Ag/DNA/p-InP structures
    (American Institute of Physics, 2012-02-15) Güllü, Ömer; Pakma, Osman; Türüt, Abdülmecit
    The current density-voltage (J-V) characteristics of Ag/DNA/p-InP metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structures have been investigated in room temperature. We have observed that the Ag/DNA/p-InP structure shows an excellent rectifying behavior and that this structure increases the barrier height (φ b0). The main electrical parameters of these structures, such as ideality factor (n), barrier height, and average series resistance values were found to be 1.087, 0.726 eV, and 66.92Ω. This value of n was attributed to the presence of an interfacial insulator layer at the Ag/p-InP interface and the density of interface states (N ss) localized at the InP/DNA interface. The values of N ss localized at the InP/DNA interface were found at 0.675-E v in the 1.38 × 10 12 eV -1 cm -2.

    PowSysGUI: A new educational software package for power system stability studies using MATLAB/Simulink
    (SAGE, 2017-10-01) Ekinci, Serdar; Demirören, Ayşen; Zeynelgil, Hatice Lale
    Graphical user interfaces have been progressively used in the classrooms to provide users of computer simulations with a friendly and visual approach to specify all input parameters with enhanced configuration flexibility. In this paper, an educational software package called PowSysGUI (Power System GUI), which runs on MATLAB and uses graphical user interfaces, has been developed for analysis and simulation of small to large size electric power systems. PowSysGUI is open-source software and anyone can see the inner structure of the program to figure out how to code a power engineering problem. It is designed as a simulation tool for researchers and educators, as it is simple to use and modify. PowSysGUI has algorithms for solving power flow, small signal stability analysis, and time-domain simulation. In the case studies, IEEE 16-machine 68-bus test system is given to show the features of the developed software tool. Moreover, classroom experience has shown that the developed software package helps in consolidating a better understanding of power system stability phenomena.

    Improved combustion of asphaltite coals in a rotating head combustor with various air supply arrangements
    (ACS Publications, 2014-04-16) Altun, Şehmus; Öner, Cengiz
    When burned in conventional stokers, coals with high swelling properties such as asphaltites make coke blocks (coking). The plastic layer formed on them prevents air from diffusing into coal; hence, the air provided for swollen coal to burn becomes insufficient. This problem can partially be resolved by shaking the flame bed automatically or by mixing the burning coals manually in order to provide continuous air for the surface of the unburned coal. Therefore, in this study, a coal combustion system with the rotating head was manufactured for burning effectively Turkish coking coals characterized by high sulfur and ash content in agitation conditions with air supply arrangements. This type of coals known as asphaltite, abundantly found in southeastern Anatolia coal basin in Turkey, were burned in the rotating head combustor in order to investigate the effect of operating parameters, such as excess air ratio, coal particle size and feeding speed, air delivery type, addition of flange, bed slope, and rotation speed on the combustion efficiency and temperature distribution on the head. Experimental results showed that both the rotating of combustion chamber and additional air supply, which was blown out with pressure from the air delivery holes, reduced the negative impact of ash on the combustion efficiency, mainly due to the coal getting in touch with air better. It was possible to increase the peak combustion efficiency over 80% by both improving the air supply and agitation of coalbed preventing coking during combustion. As a result, this system could be highly recommended to burn the coals with high swelling properties like asphaltite at a high efficiency.
