Due to the limitations of reaching the grid utility to remote area, such as rural and/or countryside areas. Stand-alone photovoltaic power systems represent good alternative that it can be adapted for electrical power delivering to these areas. In this paper, a new design of stand-alone solar system suitable for individual building application is presented. This study focuses on proposing a desired solar PV panels matrix arrangement and connection, in addition to presenting an accurate design of Buck-Boost DC-DC converter which controlled by fuzzy logic controller FLC. The controller guarantees the maximum Power Point working conditions and manipulates the fluctuation of the DC link voltage of the matrix due to the weather changing. The main system includes battery bank charger, single phase inverter, and passive power filter. This study addresses the design and performance analysis the DC side of the 7.85 kW PV system. The system performance is evaluated through MATLAB/Simulink results which reflected the promising indications as an effective system for rural individual stand-alone building applications.

A different circuit structure of nine-level current source power inverter is presented and discussed in this manuscript. The proposed topology is based on the common-emitter inverter topology equipped with an inductor-cell circuit. The common-emitter inverter works as the main inverter circuits delivering a three-level AC current waveform. The inductor-cell circuit produces the intermediate output current levels for nine-level current output waveform. Proportional integral current controller was applied to regulate the current streaming thru the inductor-cell. Multi triangular carrier signals based sinusoidal pulse width modulation method was utilized to obtain a lower waveform distortion. The proposed nine-level inverter circuit was tested and examined. The test results verified that the new nine-level inverter circuit worked well producing a nine-level current waveform with less low-frequency harmonic components.

Power loss reduction, improvement of voltage profile, system reliability and system security are the important objectives that motivated researchers to use custom power devices/FACTS devices in power systems. The existing power quality problems such as power losses, voltage instability, voltage profile problem, load ability issues, energy losses, reliability problems etc. are caused due to continuous load growth and outage of components. The significant qualities of custom power devices /FACTS devices such as power loss reduction, improvement of voltage profile, system reliability and system security have motivated researchers in this area and to implement these devices in power system. The optimal placement and sizing of these devices are determined based on economical viability, required quality, reliability and availability. In published literatures, different algorithms are implemented for optimal placement of these devices based on different conditions. In this paper, the published literatures on this field are comprehensively reviewed and elaborate comparison of various algorithms is compared. The inference of this extensive comparative analysis is presented. In this research, Meta heuristic methods and sensitive index methods are used for determining the optimal location and sizing of custom power devices/FACTS devices. The combination of these two methods are also implemented and presented.

This paper presents a cuckoo search (CS) algorithm for determining the global maximum power point (GMPP) tracking of photovoltaic (PV) under partial shading conditions (PSC). The conventional methods are fail to track the GMPP under PSC, which decrease the reliability of the power system and increase the system losses. The performance of the CS algorithm is compared with perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm for different cases of operations of PV panels under PSC. The CS algorithm used in this work to control directly the duty cycle of the DC-DC converter without proportional integral derivative (PID) controller. The proposed CS model can track the GMPP very accurate with high efficiency in less time under different conditions as well as in PSC.

The intention of this paper is to identify a suitable controller for closed loop multi converter system for multiple input sources and to improve time response of high-gain-step up-converter. Closed-loop Multi Converter System (MCS) is utilized to regulate load-voltage. This effort recommends suitable-controller for closed-two loop-controlled-SEPIC-REBOOST Converter fed DC motor. The estimation of the yield in open-two loop and closed- two-loop-circuit has been done using MATLAB or Simulink. Closed-two loop-control of Multi Converter System with Propotional+Integral (PI)- Propotional+Integral (PI) and Proportional+Resonant (PR) - Proportional+Resonant (PR) Controllers are investigated and their responses are evaluated in conditions of rise time, peak time, settling time and steady state error. It is seen that current-mode PR-PR controlled MCS gives better time domain response in terms of motor speed. A Prototype of MCS has been fabricated in the laboratory and the experimental-results are authenticated with the simulation-results.

This paper presents a MATLAB/Simulink model for a 9-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter with mismatched DC voltage sources. The impact of mismatched DC voltage sources on the performance of the 9-level CHBMI is investigated. Due to the mismatched voltages among DC voltage sources, the output fundamental voltage is different from the input reference voltage. To address this problem, a switching-angle calculation technique that accounts for mismatched as well as varying DC voltage sources is demonstrated. The switching angles obtained using this technique is able to produce the desired output fundamental voltage for a wide range of input reference voltages. Since this switching-angle calculation technique does not require complex iterative computation, it has the potential for real-time implementation.

In this research, we propose a novel recommendation for improving CCT-D and lumen output (LO) of the 6600K in-cup packaging white LEDs (ICP-WLEDs) by varying its particle concentration. By using Light Tools and Mat lab software based on the Mie Theory, we derive the influence of the red phosphor particle’s concentration on the D-CCT and LO. The results show that the CCT-D are significantly affected when the concentration of the red phosphor varying from 0% to 1.8%. The CCT-D decreases from 4000K to 2200K and LO increases from 800 lm to 1300 lm.
