Table 2 Simulation Parameters.
Parameter | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
PV System Size | 5Â kW | Typical capacity for distribution-level microgrids; balances feasibility with real-world residential/community applications |
Battery Capacity | 3.5 kWh | Matches common lithium-ion storage modules; practical size for microgrid applications |
Battery SoC Limits | 30–80% | Recommended by ageing studies to avoid deep discharge/overcharge and extend cycle life |
Supercapacitor Capacity | 1 kWh | Smaller size reflects SC’s role as a fast-response buffer for transients rather than bulk storage. |
Load Profile | Residential–commercial daily profile (scaled IEEE test case) | Provides realistic demand variations for predictive testing |
Simulation Time Step | 1Â min | Balances accuracy in capturing fluctuations with computational efficiency |
Optimization Population Size | 30 | Ensures sufficient diversity; larger values gave no significant performance gain |
Optimization Iterations | 100 | Stable convergence achieved; higher iterations only increased computation |
PCRTAM-Net Learning Rate | 0.001 | Cross-validation showed better accuracy at a lower rate without divergence |
PCRTAM-Net Epochs | 50 | Prevents overfitting while ensuring adequate training |
PCRTAM-Net Batch Size | 64 | Provides a balance between gradient stability and computational cost |
