Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Power storage apparatuses in system stabilization systems, such as lead-acid batteries, deteriorate due to repeated charging and discharging, leading to reduced capacity and shortened lifespan, and existing solutions fail to effectively manage the relationship between power storage and capacitors to minimize these cycles.
Innovation Solution
A system stabilization system comprising a power storage apparatus and a capacitor, controlled by a control apparatus that prioritizes capacitor charging/discharging for short-term fluctuations and power storage for longer-term fluctuations, reducing the number of charge/discharge cycles of the power storage apparatus.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If the power storage apparatus is used to suppress power fluctuations by charging and discharging in response to control, then the power system stabilization function is achieved, but the power storage apparatus deteriorates due to repeated charging and discharging cycles
Solution Approach 1:
The invention segments the power fluctuation suppression function between two distinct components: a capacitor apparatus for short-term fluctuations and a power storage apparatus for medium-to-long-term fluctuations. The control apparatus divides the control period into a first period (capacitor active) and a second period (power storage apparatus active), allowing each component to operate in its optimal range and reducing unnecessary cycling of the power storage apparatus.
2Reliability
If the power storage apparatus responds to all power fluctuations including short-term variations, then comprehensive power stabilization is achieved, but the number of charge/discharge cycles increases causing early deterioration
Solution Approach 1:
The invention dynamically adjusts the response strategy based on the time characteristics of power fluctuations. The control apparatus identifies whether fluctuations are short-term (within the control period) or medium-to-long-term (exceeding the control period) and selectively engages the appropriate storage component, optimizing the operational productivity of each component based on real-time conditions.
3Reliability
If the power storage apparatus is controlled to track medium-and long-term power fluctuations, then effective fluctuation suppression is achieved, but the mutual relationship control with capacitor is insufficient leading to excessive charging/discharging
Solution Approach 1:
The control apparatus continuously monitors power fluctuations and provides feedback to determine the appropriate response strategy. By detecting whether power fluctuations exceed the control period threshold, the system feedback-controlledly switches between capacitor-only mode and coordinated power storage apparatus mode, achieving effective fluctuation suppression while maintaining manageable control complexity through clear decision logic.
