Parametric Optimization of Combined Wind-Solar Energy Power Plants for Sustainable Smart City Development

: To minimize the existing risks associated with the energy production, distribution, and development of urban areas, the concept of sustainable development of smart manufacturing is being introduced everywhere. However, most of existing digital transformation technologies do not sufﬁciently take into account environmental, economic, and social components. It requires the development of specialized solutions that, on the one hand, contribute to the development of the urban environment, and on the other, are focused on the use of innovative technologies that have a positive effect on the environment. However, in order to provide electric power to objects of a smart urban environment, we propose using autonomous power plants with renewable energy sources (wind and sun) instead of classical central power supply. The article describes the beneﬁts of using combined wind-solar power plants to provide electricity to smart urban environments. The article considers advantages and disadvantages of this solution. We describe the design of the combined wind-solar installation with a vertical Darier rotor and photoelectric converters located on a common supporting structure. This solution allows getting a positive synergistic effect from the use of several renewable energy sources. The presented main advantages of this solution include increasing the energy efﬁciency of photovoltaic converters due to the intensiﬁcation of heat removal from the surface of solar cells by the wind ﬂow from the Darier rotor. In addition, this article considers the efﬁcient use of the area and stability of electricity output. Digital aerodynamic modeling performed the parametric optimization of the Darier rotor having three blades with NACA 0021proﬁle. The simulation demonstrated that the blades installed at an angle of 3.8 ◦ provide the maximum value of the wind utilization coefﬁcient. This article also considers parametric optimization of a photovoltaic installation. In particular, the optimal installation angle of photovoltaic modules for Sevastopol is 34 ◦ . —photocurrent I —reverse R I sc ( stc —short-circuit i coefﬁcient the short-circuit current of the solar u —temperature coefﬁcient of no-load voltage, V/K; K t —temperature coefﬁcient of temperature rise, m T — temperature standard conditions, K); n s solar cells connected in T env —ambient temperature, K; U id —open circuit voltage of the solar cell under V; —value of of solar ; and IR —solar radiation intensity under standard conditions, wind turbine rotor using the ﬁnite volume method show that by setting the optimal blade angle, its energy efﬁciency can be signiﬁcantly increased. The simulation results show that the maximum value of the wind utilization coefﬁcient is achieved when the blades are installed at an angle 3.8 ◦ . The results of the parametric optimization of the photovoltaic installation in the conditions of Sevastopol showed that the highest efﬁciency is achieved when the modules are installed at an angle 50 ◦ to the horizon in the winter season, and in the summer—34 ◦ , which allows to generate 6.2% more electrical energy. Estimated calculations of the energy parameters of the combined wind-solar plant with a rated power of 3.5 kW show that the potential annual energy production is 9817 kWh (9000 kWh is generated by the wind generator and 817 kWh by photovoltaic modules).


Introduction
The use of modern technologies to improve the efficiency of organizing the functioning of manufacturing and urban processes and the provision of innovative services forms the basis of smart sustainable city and society concept [1][2][3][4][5]. Emerging environmental problems and other risks associated with an increase in the proportion of the population living in cities [1,2] can be solved using assessing models [4,5]. Special attention should be paid to the set of strategies for the conceptual development of urban areas, which are called "smart" cities in the literature, proposed by many studies [6][7][8]. The concept of a "smart" city aims to find new ways to meet these challenges based on the integration of information and communication technologies, the introduction of modern advances in artificial intelligence, big data processing, decision support technologies, and IoT [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. Thus, in practice, the implementation of smart sustainable city concept allows to meet the growing needs of the present and future generations while minimizing the negative impact of the implemented technical solutions on the economic, social, and environmental components of the city [6][7][8][9][10]. The technological base for ensuring sustainable development of smart sustainable city (SSC) cities is the so-called "smart" solutions in the field of digital transformation of urbanized territories [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. Examples of such solutions are smart power grids [16][17][18][19][20][21], effective video surveillance systems [22][23][24], intelligent traffic management [25,26], and housing and communal services [27]. However, the difficulty of electricity providing using city power supply networks limits the widespread implementation of such solutions. This is due the need of significant financial costs and additional construction works in some cases many times higher than the cost of the installed equipment. In addition, meeting the increased energy needs only through the use of traditional types of energy will lead to a deterioration of the environmental situation.
These problems can be solved by using power plants that implement the concept of small-scale distributed energy, with generating plants located in the immediate vicinity of electricity consumers. This concept fits well with the use of renewable energy sources (RES) and, in particular solar and wind power plants. In addition, the advantages of such installations are environmental friendliness, which allows them to be used on almost any scale without causing damage to the environment, as well as their availability in almost every point of our planet, differing in radiation density by no more than two times [28,29], which is very important for the implementation of the concept of a smart urban environment. However, despite the stated advantages, the widespread use of PGR in Russia is constrained by a number of disadvantages. One of the main such disadvantages of most PGR-based power plants is the inconstancy of the output power [30]. This disadvantage can be leveled by using in one design several generating plants that convert different types of renewable energy sources and an energy storage system. This is because various types of renewable energy sources, as a rule, have a weak correlation, which makes it possible to significantly reduce their influence in combined wind-solar installations.
The authors analyzed the existing technical solutions, the simultaneous use of photoelectric converters (PV) and a wind power plant (WPP) [31]. This analysis shows that the technical implementation of such a combination does not always bring a noticeable synergistic effect and may lead to a decrease in the energy efficiency of each of the converters. In this regard, when designing these installations, it is necessary initially to take into account the design features of PV and wind turbines, as well as the features of their work.

Materials and Methods
The analysis showed that one of the most promising installations that allows to obtain a positive synergistic effect from the combined use of PV and wind turbines is the development of the Scientific and Production Center "Solar Energy". The design of which provides for the placement of photovoltaic modules on the supporting structure of a wind turbine with a vertical-axial rotor of the Darrieus type ( Figure 1). The peculiarity of this solution is that the photovoltaic modules are located below the rotor of the wind turbine, the design of which allows the forced air supply to the rear surface of the photovoltaic converters, intensifying the heat transfer from them to the environment. This solution makes it possible to increase the energy efficiency of solar cells by lowering their temperature. To ensure the maximum extraction of electrical energy from the wind-solar plant, it includes an MPPT controller and an automatic voltage stabilizer, which allows the voltage matching of the wind and photovoltaic plants when they are connected in parallel [32]. To simulate the operating mode and calculate the output power of photovoltaic modules, in order to assess its energy parameters and efficiency, a system of Equation (1) was compiled. The determination of the values of the intensity of solar radiation entering the surface of the PVC was carried out according to the methods [33,34] based on data from [35] and PVGIS online service (Photovoltaic Geographical Information System https://re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/pvg_tools/en/tools.html, accessed on 1 September 2021).

The block diagram of the electrical part of the power plant is shown in Figure 2. The principle of operation is as follows: electrical energy from the alternating current generator of the wind turbine (1) through the charge controller (6) is transferred to the storage battery (7). In this case, the conversion of alternating voltage to direct voltage is carried out by means of a rectifier (2). The electrical energy from the photovoltaic system (5) is also transferred to the battery through the charge controller. At the same time, in order to ensure efficient extraction of electrical energy, using the MPPT controller (4), an energy extraction mode is set corresponding to the maximum power point of photovoltaic converters and voltage matching is performed by means of a stabilizer (3). The voltage regulator and the charge controller are controlled by a microcontroller device (9). Electric energy from the battery is transmitted to the consumer through the inverter (8), which converts DC voltage into AC voltage. [32]. To simulate the operating mode and calculate the output power of photovoltaic modules, in order to assess its energy parameters and efficiency, a system of equations (1) was compiled. The determination of the values of the intensity of solar radiation entering the surface of the PVC was carried out according to the methods [33,34] based on data from [35] and PVGIS online service (Photovoltaic Geographical Information System https://re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/pvg_tools/en/tools.html, 01 September 2021). -reverse saturation current of solar cells, A; -electron charge, (1.602·10 -19 C); -series resistance of solar cells, Ohm; -the ideality factor, depending on the thickness of the p-n-junction and the material, takes values for a silicon solar cell from 1.2 to 5 ( Table 1)   A; -temperature coefficient of the short-circuit current of the solar cell, A/K; -temperature coefficient of no-load voltage, V/K; -temperature coefficient of temperature rise, (K·m 2 )/W; -temperature standard conditions, (298 K); -number of solar cells connected in series; -ambient temperature, K; ( ) -open circuit voltage of the solar cell under standard conditions, V; -value of the intensity of solar radiation, W/m 2 ; and -solar radiation intensity under standard conditions, (W/m 2 ).

We carried out a digital aerodynamic simulation of the operation of the Darrieus rotor of a wind turbine with three blades with NACA 0021 profiles using the finite volume method [36]. A 2D computational domain with a length exceeding the rotor diameter by a factor of 5 has been developed, which makes it possible to obtain the parameters of the flow around the rotor with an accuracy sufficient for engineering calculations. To speed up the calculations without reducing the accuracy of their results, the computational domain was composed of three subdomains with different grid densities: the outer space around the rotor-the largest mesh size and the inner rotor space-the average mesh size, and the near-wall areas around each blade-the smallest mesh size.

The main purpose of the simulation was to determine the angle of the rotor blades φ (the angle between the chord of the blade and the tangent to the trajectory of its motion on the fixing axis), at which the value of the coefficient of utilization of wind energy Cp will take the maximum value. The utilization factor of wind energy is a dimensionless value showing the efficiency of converting wind energy into mechanical energy of the rotor. Its value was calculated as the ratio of the mechanical power of the wind turbine rotor to the power of the wind flow: where P M -mechanical power of the wind turbine rotor; P W -wind power; ω-angular speed of rotation of the rotor; M-torque; ρ-air density; S-swept rotor area; and V-wind speed.

The technique [39] was used to estimate the true value of the measured values from the results of the experiment. By the beginning of the mathematical processing of the measurement results, all gross and systematic errors were eliminated by introducing appropriate corrections to the measurement results and discarding obviously erroneous results [40]. These operations were eliminated in the first stage of mathematical processing of the measurement results. Thus, the measurement accuracy in the experiments was determined only by random errors.
When processing the experimental results, the "three sigma" rule was used. Thus, the confidence score, given that the sigma value is not known, was calculated from the expression where -true measured value; ̅ -arithmetic mean of measurement results; -number of independent measurements; and -an estimate of the standard deviation determined from the ratio: where -i-th measurement result.

Thus, the article shows that in order to minimize the existing risks associated with the development of urbanized areas, the concept of sustainable development of a smart urban environment is being introduced everywhere. However, existing digital transformation technologies do not sufficiently take into account environmental, economic, and social components. It requires the development of specialized solutions that, on the one hand, contribute to the development of the urban environment, and on the other, are focused on the use of innovative technologies that have a beneficial effect on the environment. In view of this, in order to provide electricity to objects of a smart urban environment, the authors propose, instead of the classical central power supply, to use autonomous power plants operating from renewable energy sources, in particular, wind and sun. The article showed the advantages of using combined wind-solar power plants, the main of which is the increased stability of electricity generation. An important advantage of this solution is also that it allows to increase the energy efficiency of photovoltaic converters  fixed at a suboptimal angle 50°, set by the manufacturer. Figure 14 shows diagrams of annual energy production for optimal (34°) and suboptimal installation angle (50°) of photovoltaic modules. It follows from the diagram that when the angle of photovoltaic modules is set to 34°, the annual power generation is 817 kW·h, and when the angle of installation is 50° it is 783 kW·h. Thus, changing the angle makes it possible to increase the power generation of the photovoltaic installation by 4.3%. The diagram also shows that for an even greater increase in efficiency, it is required to change the angle during operation: in the cold season, set the angle 50°, and in warm-34°. This event will allow to work out electrical energy on 6.2% more.

Conclusions
The processes of energy transformation from the RES have a direct impact on the environment. Implementation of the multivalent RES stations will decrease the dependency on the energy form the fossil fuel in the manufacturing and urban sectors primarily in the areas with the poor fossil fuel network.

The article showed the advantages of using combined wind-solar power plants, the main of which is the increased stability of electricity generation. An important advantage of this solution is also that it allows to increase the energy efficiency of photovoltaic converters by intensifying heat removal from the surface of the photocells, which significantly increases its total energy characteristics and increases the production of thermal and electrical energy. The presented results of digital aerodynamic modeling of the operation of the Darrieus wind turbine rotor using the finite volume method show that by setting the optimal blade angle, its energy efficiency can be significantly increased. The simulation results show that the maximum value of the wind utilization coefficient is achieved when the blades are installed at an angle 3.8 • . The results of the parametric optimization of the photovoltaic installation in the conditions of Sevastopol showed that the highest efficiency is achieved when the modules are installed at an angle 50 • to the horizon in the winter season, and in the summer-34 • , which allows to generate 6.2% more electrical energy.
Estimated calculations of the energy parameters of the combined wind-solar plant with a rated power of 3.5 kW show that the potential annual energy production is 9817 kWh (9000 kWh is generated by the wind generator and 817 kWh by photovoltaic modules).
