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.

0652048Batarseh 描述：该奖项支持学生在佛罗里达州奥兰多中佛罗里达大学 (UCF) 电气工程系 Issa Batarseh 博士与约旦大学电气工程系 Ahmed Harb 博士合作开展的项目中获得国际研究经验科学技术学院 (JUST)，约旦伊尔比德。 该项目将支持至少八名美国学生在约旦进行电力电子研究。这个为期 8 周的夏季项目将从 2007 年 5 月开始连续运行三个夏季。学生（六名本科生和四名研究生）将来自 UCF，并将与 JUST 电气工程系的学生和教师一起工作。该项目将重点关注光伏应用的电力转换技术（逆变器），并使学生了解国际和多元文化背景下的研究动态。 美国和约旦都对光伏系统等可再生能源技术感兴趣，因为这两个国家都在考虑实现能源供应组合多元化。将两国学生和教师聚集在一起，努力实现这一共同目标，将为美国参与者为未来的合作奠定坚实的基础，这对于美国保持竞争优势是必要的。智力价值：拟议合作的目标是改进光伏系统的逆变器技术。将重点强调通过数字控制技术增强逆变器功能。具体智力成果包括： 1.单级和二级逆变器技术的系统比较分析。衡量优点的标准包括效率、可靠性和成本。 2. 将所有控制功能整合到一个数字控制器中。这种方法将为逆变器增加更多的多功能性，并使其适合各种定制应用。 3. 通过PSpice、Sabre、MathCAD、Matlab等软件或软件组合开发综合性逆变器设计自动化工具。其他软件设计工具（例如 C++）可用于确保跨各种设计平台的更广泛的可移植性。更广泛的影响：国际研究合作对于帮助创建一个促进智力知识交流的场所、刺激当地经济增长以及培养全球工程研究和教育的合作精神是必要的。拟议项目有潜力： 1. 激发和激励年轻电气工程师专门研究可再生能源系统和电力电子领域， 2. 通过将研究与工程教育相结合，加强美国的科技能力可再生能源系统和电力电子领域，3.拓宽和扩大美国和国外电气工程师广泛科学技术界之间的关系。
