0652048BatarsehDescription: This award supports international research experience for students in a project by Dr. Issa Batarseh, Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Central Florida (UCF), Orlando, Florida in collaboration with Dr. Ahmed Harb, Department of Electrical Engineering, Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST), Irbid, Jordan. The project will support at least eight US students to perform power electronics research in Jordan. This 8 week long summer project will run for three consecutive summers starting in May 2007. The students, six undergraduate and four graduate, will come from the UCF and will work alongside students and faculty of Electrical Engineering at JUST. The project will focus on power conversion technologies (inverters) for photovoltaic applications and will expose students to the dynamics of research in international and multi-cultural settings. Renewable energy technologies such as photovoltaic systems are of interest to the United States and Jordan as each nation is looking at diversifying their energy supply portfolios. Bringing together students and faculty from both nations to work towards this common goal will provide US participants with a solid foundation for future collaborative efforts, which are necessary for the United States to maintain its competitive edge. Intellectual merit: The objective of the proposed collaboration is to improve on inverter technology for photovoltaic systems. A strong emphasis will be put on increasing inverter functionality through digital control techniques. The specific intellectual merits include: 1. Systematic comparative analysis of single and two stage inverter technologies. The measure of merits will include efficiency, reliability and cost. 2. Consolidation of all control functions into a digital controller. This approach will add more versatility to the inverter and make it suitable for a wide range of custom-applications. 3. Development of a comprehensive inverter design automated tool through software or combination of software such as PSpice, Saber, MathCAD, and Matlab. Other software design tools such as C++ may be used to ensure wider portability across a wide range of design platform. Broader impact: International research collaboration is necessary to help create a venue to promote the exchange of intellectual knowledge, to stimulate growth of local economies, and to foster a spirit of cooperation in engineering research and education globally. The proposed project has the potential to: 1. excite and motivate young electrical engineers to specialize in the area of renewable energy systems and power electronics, 2. strengthen the scientific and technological capabilities of the United States through the integration of research and engineering education in the area of renewable energy systems and power electronics, 3. broaden and expand relations between the extensive scientific and technological communities of electrical engineers in the United States and abroad.

0652048 Batarseh描述：该奖项支持学生在一个项目中的国际研究经验，该项目由佛罗里达中央佛罗里达大学（UCF）电气工程系的Issa Batarseh博士与约旦伊尔比德约旦科技大学（JUST）电气工程系的Ahmed Harb博士合作。 该项目将支持至少8名美国学生在约旦进行电力电子研究。这个为期8周的暑期项目将从2007年5月开始连续三个夏天进行。这些学生，六名本科生和四名研究生，将来自UCF，并将与JUST的学生和电气工程教师一起工作。该项目将侧重于光伏应用的功率转换技术（逆变器），并将使学生接触到国际和多元文化背景下的研究动态。 美国和约旦对光伏系统等可再生能源技术很感兴趣，因为这两个国家都在寻求能源供应组合的多样化。将两国的学生和教师聚集在一起，为实现这一共同目标而努力，将为美国的参与者提供未来合作努力的坚实基础，这是美国保持竞争优势所必需的。知识价值：拟议合作的目标是改进光伏系统的逆变器技术。重点将放在通过数字控制技术增加逆变器功能上。具体的智力优点包括：1。单级和两级逆变技术的系统比较分析。衡量优点的标准将包括效率、可靠性和成本。2.将所有控制功能整合到数字控制器中。这种方法将为逆变器增加更多的通用性，使其适用于广泛的定制应用。3.通过软件或软件组合（如PSpice、Saber、MathCAD和Matlab）开发全面的逆变器设计自动化工具。可以使用C++等其他软件设计工具来确保在各种设计平台上具有更广泛的可移植性。更广泛的影响：国际研究合作是必要的，以帮助创造一个场所，以促进知识交流，刺激当地经济的增长，并促进全球工程研究和教育的合作精神。该项目具有以下潜力：1。激发和激励年轻的电气工程师专注于可再生能源系统和电力电子领域，2。通过整合可再生能源系统和电力电子领域的研究和工程教育，加强美国的科学和技术能力。拓宽和扩大美国和国外电气工程师的广泛科学和技术社区之间的关系。
