Abstract

In electrical protection, there is a method of electrical protection of buildings against atmospheric discharges called the electro-geometric method or the rolling sphere method. So far, it is possible to achieve the implementation of this method graphically, that is, representing through plans and technical drawings, the protection conditions of the analyzed structure and obtaining from these graphic representations the protection parameters with the consequent errors caused by the scales and dimensions of the work plane. In the present work, a mathematical model is obtained that allows, using specific calculations, to analyze the dynamic behavior of a protection system against atmospheric discharges without worrying about the limitations given by the scales and planes. The set of equations obtained in the model allows us to determine the different parameters that define the protection system against atmospheric discharges (lightning) without depending on the graphical representation of the system's topology.

Abstract

Voltage-unbalance is one of the power quality deficiencies that degrades electrical power systems performance. In this work, voltage unbalance problem is tackled through two stages; evaluation using a novel performance index and mitigation using a thyristor-controlled reactor (TCR) compensator with artificial intelligent (AI) based models. Unlike standard performance indices that rely on voltages' root mean square (RMS) values, the proposed index depends on the space vector (SV) signal amplitude for voltage unbalance evaluation. This signal depends on the instantaneous values of the three-phase voltages and has twice the system frequency. Therefore, the proposed index entitled as space vector unbalance factor (SVUF) reflects the amount of voltage unbalance and reduces the time necessary for evaluation by half. Subsequently, advanced models based on several algorithms are proposed to generate the required firing angles for TCR compensator to restore voltage balance, including radial basis functions networks (RBFNs), hybrid-RBFNs (H-RBFNs), polynomials (PNs), and simplified neural networks (NNs). Models' structure, prediction capability, and response time are analyzed. Results show that the time required for voltage unbalance mitigation is reduced. Moreover, the models used to generate the firing angles are simplified significantly while maintaining high accuracy.

Abstract

Most of the fully automated industries are mainly depending on the single and multi-drive system based on their requirements. In this paper, to investigate the power quality problems in a distributed multi drive system connected to the common uncontrolled rectifier is considered. Uncontrolled rectifier is mainly used as a front-end converter to feed direct current (DC) supply to the same rating of two voltage source inverters with induction motors as a multi-drive system. To analyse the effectiveness of the system the two drive systems are operated in different time period. Then, both are operated simultaneously to monitor the power quality issues, due to the front-end converter present in the system. In both the cases the harmonics in source current is not within the limits of IEEE recommended practices. Therefore, to reduce the harmonic content present in the current at source, a shunt active power filter is implemented. The effect of two drive systems operated at the same time is analysed first. Then, active filter is injected in between the source and the multi-drive system in parallel to improve the power quality of the grid system. The individual and multi-drive drive systems are analysed with the simulation results.

The proposed MD-UPQC can exchange the power between the multi-feeders and proficiently mitigates all voltage-current associated power-quality problems, make sure to maintain balanced power-flow to consumers. At recent days, various manufacturers recommend the provision of multilevel inverters in mid-range customized compensation devices with desirable control schemes. In distinct, the 5-level diode-clamped multi-level inverter (DCMLI) is best suited for MD-UPQC over traditional 3-level voltage source inverter (VSI) topology for attaining enhanced features. In this paper, MD-UPQC has been proposed with three 5-level DCMLI modules interfaced as back-to-back with a common direct current (DC) capacitor. The simplified phase-dispositional modulation technique is easily assembled with proposed universal voltage-current reference controller for significant functioning of DCMLI-MDUPQC device. The operation and performance of proposed model and its control scheme is evaluated with MATLAB/Simulink computational tool, simulation results are presented.

Abstract

Class-E power amplifiers are integrated into many applications because their simple design and high performance. The efficiency of the power amplifier is significantly impacted by the nonlinear characteristic of the switching device, which is not analyzed clearly in theory. The nonlinear drain-to-source parasitic capacitance of the power transistor and the linear external capacitance are both contributed to the optimum conditions for obtaining the exact shunt capacitance. In this paper, a high-efficiency class-E power amplifier with shunt capacitance is designed with the consideration of both linear and nonlinear capacitance. Furthermore, a mathematical analysis is derived to calculate the component values in order to design the class-E power amplifier. Consequently, high power-added efficiency of 94.6% is obtained using MRF9030 MOSFET transistor with parameter of 4W output power and 13.56 MHz operating frequency. Finally, the measurement result of a linear class-E power amplifier circuit is obtained to compare and realize the efficiency of the proposed work.

Abstract

This article presents the research synthesis method of electromechanical tracking system for lead screw control using alternating current (AC) servo motors applied in machine tools, based on the framework of sliding mode control method and the state observer. Control algorithms are capable of compensating for perturbation components, with a state observation to be established to evaluate and compensate for uncertain nonlinear components. The chattering reduction techniques of sliding mode surface are proposed to improve the control effectiveness. The research results are verified by simulation on MATLAB-Simulink, showing that the proportional integral derivative (PID) controller has not met the control quality, but requires the sliding mode control law and state observation as proposed. Then this tracking drive system will work with better quality and can be developed for lead screw system of machine tool. The research results in the paper are also the completed development for calculating, designing, and manufacturing intelligent electrical drive systems in industrial applications.

Abstract

The emergence of renewable energy sources with controllable loads gave the opportunity to the consumers to build their own Microgrids. However, the intermittence of renewable energy sources such as wind and photovoltaic leads to some challenges in terms of balancing generation and consumption. This paper aims to present a novel multi-agent model based intelligent control scheme to balance the home/building alternative current (AC)-direct current (DC) load demands and renewable energy sources. The new proposed scheme consists of a three-level hierarchical multi agent system based on cooperation, communication and interaction between intelligent agents to fulfill the load's requirements. Then, the proposed multi agent framework is simulated using four different nanogrids to prove its effectiveness using different temporal profiles for loads and generators. The proposed model is designed to be modular, so that it can be considered as a sample from a set of similar modules, assigned to different buildings to allow efficient energy sharing and balancing. The used approach in this concept is inspired from auto-similar systems, which is well suited and easy to implement on multi agent systems. A co-simulation in MATLAB and JAVA/JADE platforms has been performed regarding the production-consumption of the 24 hours baseline period.

Abstract

This paper describes modelling a step-down chopper designed for a photovoltaic application to study its performance of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) in conducted mode. The EMC measurements attended at this stage have shown that the buck converter is a harmful device for its electromagnetic environment. Indeed, the fast-switching operation leads to higher levels of conducted and radiated electromagnetic interference (EMI) and subsequently facilitates the electromagnetic coupling with the surrounding environment. In this sense, we present a new proposal of structure and control based on a combination of two techniques, namely pseudo-random modulation and soft switching, thus minimizing the conducted electromagnetic emissions at the source. The usefulness of this new strategy, evaluated through a comparative study, lies in its efficiency compared to the classical PWM method, allowing both to reduce the rise of current and voltage gradients and spread the electromagnetic spectrum over a wide frequency range. The simulation results prove that a significant gain in EMC has been reached.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate a performance analysis of a 50 MWp solar plant connected to the medium voltage electrical grid installed in the Saharan environment of Nouakchott, Mauritania. This study is done in two seasons characterizing the climate of Nouakchott, then in three typical days based on the measurement data that are obtained from the site of the installation. The measurements were collected daily, to improve the performance evaluation, real-time measurements with a step of 10 seconds for solar irradiation, ambient temperature, module temperature, wind speed, and electrical parameters. The performance evaluation was done based on the IEC 61724 standard to study the comportment of the power plant during different weather conditions. The total energy produced by the plant in May 2020 dry season is 10.559 GWh. However, the total energy produced in November 2019 wet season was 8.132 GWh. Besides, the energy injected by the plant into the grid was for a clear day 263.87 MWh, while for a cloudy day was 118.41 MWh, while it was 39.81 MWh for a sandstorm day. The results showed that temperature and irradiation play an important role in the performance of the system.

Abstract

This paper presents a new control strategy based on the combination between the resonant controller and the disturbance-observer (RSCDO) for stand-alone four-leg Voltage Source Inverter (VSI). The aim of the new controller is to regulate the inverter output voltage, reducing as much as possible the voltage Total Harmonic Distortion (THDv) in every load condition. The resonant controller allows to adjust the output voltage fundamental harmonic, whereas the disturbance observer is designed for compensating output voltage harmonics when non-linear loads have to be fed. The proposed control strategy has been tested using a 40 kVA three-phase 4-leg VSI and a dedicated control board, which uses the National Instruments System-on-Module sbRIO-9651. Experimental results demonstrate good behavior of the RSCDO controller to reject the disturbance in the output voltage, as well as a good dynamic response.
