| dc.description.abstract | The FAA utilizes Relocatable Power Towers that operate independent of the power grids. The issue with the current system is the management system on these towers is proprietary so when the system fails, the FAA must pay the vendor to repair it. The goal of this project is to reduce costs by designing a replacement Relocatable Tower for the FAA using non-proprietary commercial off the shelf products including generators, chargers, inverters, and 48V bank of batteries. Our team will provide a more sustainable and efficient replacement power tower that will have the capability to provide up to 3000W continuously and be quickly installed. Using parts of the system that the FAA has in their current power tower, our team has looked into replacing the inverter, solar charge controllers, solar PDP's, automatic generator start, battery bank, and battery monitoring system. | |
