Continuous tracking of these air vehicles with high intensity lasers while in-flight for tens of minutes to recharge the on-board battery system is not operationally practical; hence the recharge time must be minimized. This dissertation presents the development and system design optimization of a hybrid electrical energy storage system as a solution to this practical limitation. The solution is based on the development of a high energy density integrated system to capture and store pulsed energy. The system makes use of ultracapacitors to capture the energy at rapid charge rates, while lithium-ion batteries provide the long-term energy density, in order to maximize the duration of operations and minimize the mass requirements. A design tool employing a genetic algorithm global optimizer was developed to select the front-end ultracapacitor elements. The simulation model and results demonstrate the feasibility of the solution. The hybrid energy storage system is also optimized at the system-level for maximum end-to-end power transfer efficiency. System response optimization results and corresponding sensitivity analysis results are presented. Lastly, the ultrafast supply/extended energy storage system is generalized for other applications such as high-power commercial, industrial, and aerospace applications. 2017-05-22 English text Cleveland State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=csu1495115874616384 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=csu1495115874616384 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
