For the up-coming generations of power-supply systems, the load located area power-supply sources are an effective one, in terms of our requirements: simplicity, integrity, battery-backup, etc. This could follow the Normalization of power factor & Reducing THD% values on input current, which makes us to add an essential to include a power-factor correction unit at supply side in these new typical topologies. This Proposed architecture presents an integrated battery manage system which can also offers PF correction along with Galvanic-Isolation of battery in a humble single structure. [3] The proposed scheme has the reliable characters like increased efficiency, compact circuit and reduced costs associated with a traditional standalone multiple-stages UPS with PFC. This paper addresses the UPS action, the analysis and simulation results of Proposed UPS scheme.

There is a great concern of torque ripple and power quality of three phase voltage source converter fed Permanent Magnet Brushless DC Motor (PMBLDCM). In this paper, two control strategies for BLDC motor drive has been investigated. One of the control strategies is based on PFC - CUK converter fed PMBLDCM drive and another one is PFC- interleaved boost converter fed BLDC motor drive. Comparison has been made between the two control stragies in terms of Torque ripple, Total harmonic distortion (THD) and power factor for different operating speeds. The proposed work as been implemented under MATLAB/simulink environment. Simulation results are presented to validate proposed work. From the results, it is observed that PFC interleaved Boost converter fed BLDC motor drive is more effective compared to CUK converter fed BLDC motor drive.

This paper presents a grid-connected photovoltaic system (PV) used as a shunt active power filter (SAPF) to provide the power factor correction, harmonic elimination, reactive power compensation and to simultaneously supply power from a PV system to the utility. A direct power control (DPC) method is used for controlling the system to feed the photovoltaic energy in synchronization with grid and provide power quality improvement. The PI parameters of DC-link voltage controller are tuned using the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm without the need for an exact mathematical model of system. This PI-PSO controller gives better results for robustness, harmonic minimization and reduces the overshoot and undershoots of PI controller. The overall control of system is tested in Matlab/Simulink environment. Then, the simulations results demonstrate the robustness and feasibility of proposed method.

A simple PI control loop for the matrix converter system is designed in the simulation to maintain a constant output voltage inspite of any disturbance in the source. The single phase matrix converter employs a modified safe-commutation strategy, which results in the elimination of voltage spikes on switches, without the need of a snubber circuit when there is an inductive load being utilized. This is facilitated through the proper switching control algorithm. The sine PWM pulses are generated as switching pulses to the converter to reduce the THD.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijpeds.v5i1.5340

In this paper, based on the combination of particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm and neural network (NN), a new adaptive speed control method for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is proposed. Firstly, PSO algorithm is adopted to get the best set of weights of neural network controller (NNC) for accelerating the convergent speed and preventing the problems of trapping in local minimum. Then, to achieve high-performance speed tracking despite of the existence of varying parameters in the control system, gradient descent method is used to adjust the NNC parameters. The stability of the proposed controller is analyzed and guaranteed from Lyapunov theorem. The robustness and good dynamic performance of the proposed adaptive neural network speed control scheme are verified through computer simulations.

In this paper, the harmonic distortion for Self-Excited Induction Generator (SEIG) and an isolated synchronous generator (ISG) under non-linear load during steady state conditions are analyzed. The voltage and current harmonics distortion for both generators are calculated using the transfer function method in frequency domain for SEIG and phasor diagram method for ISG. This analysis is done independently one by one component for all harmonic components appear. The analysis results for both generators are verified to the laboratory test results. For loading with the same non-linear load to both generators, the harmonics distortion on the stator windings of SEIG was smaller than compare ISG. In addition, the harmonic distortion effects on other loads connected to PCC point of SEIG was lower than the other loads connected to ISG.

In this paper the performance of flux and torque controller for a Direct Torque Control of Cascaded H-bridge Multilevel Inverter (DTC-CMLI) fed induction machines are investigated. A Fuzzy-PI with fixed switching frequency is proposed for both torque and flux controller to enhance the DTC-CMLI performance. The operational concepts of the Fuzzy-PI with the fixed switching frequency controller of a DTC-MLI system followed by the simulation results and analysis are presented. The performance of the proposed system is verified via MATLAB/Simulink©. The proposed system significantly improves the DTC drive in terms of dynamic performance, smaller torque and flux ripple, and lower total harmonic distortion (THD).DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijpeds.v5i2.6581

The paper presents performance and energy saving analysis of 1.25 kWp grid connected Photovoltaic system under difference weather condition in West Sumatera. The measured data were performed during weather data that often occur in West Sumatra i.e. sunny, overcast, raining and cloudy. The synchronizing process successfully done even bad weather conditions when sunlight was low automatically. Photovoltaic in average start producing power from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM for normal or clear sky, however under overcast, raining and cloudy weather, the PV power decreased and disconnected earlier before sunset. During intermittent raining, overcast and cloud covered the PV power output show an irregular profile. The PV energy saving performed for three residential connection cases: 1300 VA, 900 VA with subsidized and 900 VA without subsidized. The solar PV installation have more benefits and energy saving for 1300 VA, 900 VA without subsidized with payback period around 8.5 years. However, the 900 VA with subsidized take longer 20.8 years, but still in PV lifespan 25 years. In the future, household subsidies may be reduced or eliminated, the solar energy will be viable alternative of energy resources when it can produce electricity at a cost equivalent to utility grid PLN rate.
