Abstract

The paper aims to develop an improved control system to enhance the dynamics of a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) operating at varying speeds. The generator dynamics are evaluated based on lowing current, power, and torque ripples to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control system. The adopted controllers include the model predictive power control (MPPC), model predictive torque control (MPTC), and the designed predictive voltage control (PVC). MPPC seeks to regulate the active and reactive power, while MPTC regulates the torque and flux. MPPC and MPTC have several drawbacks, like high ripple, high load commutation, and using a weighting factor in their cost functions. The methodology of designed predictive voltage comes to eliminate these drawbacks by managing the direct voltage by utilizing the deadbeat and finite control set FCS principle, which uses a simple cost function without needing any weighting factor for equilibrium error issues. The results demonstrate several advantages of the proposed PVC technique, including faster dynamic response, simplified control structure, reduced ripples, lower current harmonics, and decreased computational requirements when compared to the MPPC and MPTC methods. Additionally, the study considers the integration of blade pitch angle and maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controls, which limit wind energy utilization when the generator speed exceeds its rated speed and maximize wind energy extraction during wind scarcity. In summary, the proposed PVC enhanced control system exhibits superior performance in terms of dynamic response, control simplicity, current quality, and computational efficiency when compared to alternative methods.

Abstract

In this paper, a comparison between Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) devices including Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM), Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) and Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) for providing a better adaptation to changing operating conditions and improving the usage of current systems. The power system using FACTS devices is presented under different conditions such as single phase fault and three phase fault. A digital simulation using Matlab/Simulink software package is carried out to demonstrate the better performance including the voltage and the current of the presented system using FACTS that located between buses B1 and B2 under different faults types. The results obtained investigate that the presented system gives better response with FACTS as compared to not using them under abnormal conditions besides, the UPFC gives better performance of power system under several faults as compared to STATCOM or SSSC as It can absorb reactive power in a manner which significantly reduced the fault current. It is demonstrated that UPFC can reduce the peak fault current at bus B1 ‎to 63.85% of its value without ‎using FACTS devices under line to ground fault and 79.18% under three line to ‎ground fault whereas STATCOM and SSSC reduce it ‎to (75.21, 94.35%) and (75.40, 94.68%), respectively.

Abstract

The presented study concerns with evaluating the dynamic performance of an isotropic sinusoidal brushless motor drive while utilizing different sensorless schemes. Three estimation algorithms are considered: the first depends on extracting the speed and position via comparing two values of motor's voltage in two co-ordinate systems; the second extracts the speed and position signal via comparing two different values of motor's current defined in two co-ordinates; while the third depends on estimating the motor's flux and use it to get the speed and position. The vector control is adopted to manage the drive dynamics. The detailed mathematical derivations for all system components are presented to facilitate the performance analysis. The theoretical base of each sensorless scheme is also described in detail. The target of the provided comparative analysis is to outline the weakness and strength points of each adopted sensorless schemes while estimating the speed and rotor position for a wide operating speed range. The judgment is measured in terms of the speed and rotor position estimation errors and the dynamic response as well. The performance evaluation process is carried out using MATLAB/Simulink software in which all system parts are simulated using their mathematical models. The findings from the study state that when it comes to dynamic speed behaviour, the voltage-based sensorless technique dominates, while the current-based sensorless approach gives stability in speed estimate priority. Alternatively, the third adopted sensorless scheme offers an acceptable high-speed performance and respectable performance at lower speeds. Statistically, it is found that the voltage-based estimation technique gives respectively lower speed and position estimation errors with percentages of 35% and 10% lower than their values under the current-based estimation technique, and with percentages of 35% and 30% lower than their values under the third adopted scheme.

Abstract

This paper focuses on the comparison of maximum power point tracking ‎‎(MPPT) techniques for photovoltaic (PV) system that is interfaced with the ‎utility ‎grid via a three-phase voltage source inverter (VSI). Two algorithms for ‎MPPT ‎are presented: the Perturb and Observe (P&O) technique and the ‎Incremental Conductance (INC) algorithm, ‎which employ a DC-DC boost ‎converter.‎ The algorithms are designed to optimize the capture of power produced by the PV system by measuring the PV output power and adjust the converter’s duty cycle. The VSI in the system handles the conversion from DC to AC. It employs both an internal control loop and an external control loop to maintain the stability of the DC-link voltage and to ensure synchronization with the grid. The grid synchronization of system involves the use of Phase-Locked Loops (PLL) to achieve high accuracy in dynamic conditions. The MPPT algorithms are implemented purely in a simulated environment using the Matlab/Simulink package to illustrate the advantages of the presented MPPT methods in comparison to operating without MPPT under different meteorological conditions. The PV array simulation generally employs monocrystalline modules. The electrical parameters of the system comprise the maximum power point voltage (Vmpp), maximum power point current (Impp), open-circuit voltage (Voc), and short-circuit current (Isc). The system initiates operations under standard test conditions (STC) of 25°C and 1000 W/m² during the simulation, followed by variations in irradiance (G) and temperature (T) over time. The findings‎ indicate that the P&O technique effectively tracks the maximum power point (MPP) and facilitates the extraction of further power throughout fluctuations under various meteorological conditions. Furthermore, the INC algorithm is determined to be more effective for achieving MPPT in relation to both the P&O method and the absence of MPPT under dynamic as well as steady-state conditions‎. The INC algorithm is shown to increase the PV output power at STC by 5.24% without utilizing ‎MPPT, whereas the P&O algorithm achieves an enhancement of 3.24%.‎ The results also reveal that the INC technique exhibits the highest performance, achieving approximately 99.72% efficiency, whereas P&O reaches nearly 97.62% efficiency at STC.
