Abstract

This paper provides a proportional-integral (PI) controller and direct-quadrature (DQ) frame transformation-based optimum control method for a three-phase grid-connected inverter. In terms of grid synchronization, voltage regulation, and harmonic abatement, the proposed control technique attempts to improve the inverter's performance. By separating the control of active and reactive power, the control structure is made simpler and independent regulation of these parameters is possible. This improves the inverter's capacity to quickly react to grid disruptions and track reference values accurately. In order to lower carbon emissions and improve grid dependability, it has become vital to integrate renewable energy sources into the current power grid. Grid-connected inverters are essential in this situation because they transform DC electricity from renewable sources into grid-safe AC power. This abstract outline a proportional-integral (PI) controller and direct-quadrature (DQ) frame-based optimal control method for a three-phase grid-connected inverter using a MATLAB simulation.

Abstract

Gases can form within the insulation system for various reasons while a transformer is in operation. If these gases are not promptly and properly managed, they can negatively impact the transformer's performance. Using the dissolved gas analysis (DGA) method to identify and assess the type and quantity of dissolved gases in transformer oil can uncover potential issues within the transformer. This information is crucial for guiding preventive maintenance and necessary repairs. Dissolved gas analysis testing was conducted by extracting transformer oil samples to identify signs of disturbances in the transformer based on the dissolved gas content. This research was conducted at the Paiton plant operations and maintenance services division. The condition of transformers was assessed by analyzing dissolved gases using the Rogers ratio method. Results indicate that the transformer at Paiton 9 is in good condition but overheating has occurred and requires treatment. Conversely, the transformers at Paiton 1 and 2 are in poor condition, showing signs of electrical faults and excessive heat. Despite several attempts to add inhibitors and conduct frequent testing, the transformers remained in poor condition, necessitating their replacement or repair.

Abstract

The brushless DC (BLDC) motor requires to be controlled at the preferred speed in order to operate. A brushless DC motor's speed can be adjusted by adjusting the input voltage. In general, speed increases with voltage. The application of a Luo converter is made to satisfy the load demand, get rid of output voltage ripples, and reduce parasitic effects. The magnitude of stator input voltage to BLDC motor is controlled through the pulses applied by ATMEGA 328P micro controller to voltage source Inverter which in turn controls the magnitude of speed of BLDC motor. The position of the brushless DC (BLDC) motor is continually monitored by infrared sensors, which are then processed by a PIC16F872 microcontroller to produce the necessary pulses for BLDC motor speed regulation. The BLDC motor speed can be regulated by the pulses applied to voltage source inverter through the IR sensors placed at the motor. The outcomes of controlling the speed of a BLDC motor using voltage variation values have been shown.

Abstract

Owing to the high cost of installation and operation, distributed flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) technology gives opportunity to provide cost-effective solution in power system operation and control. A distributed static series compensator (DSSC) is a series FACTS device and it is placed equidistantly placed on the existing line to vary the line current. Active power can be controlled in the line with the help of DSSC. This paper presents DSSC for active power flow control to enhance system loadability index and to minimize reactive power generation by generators. Since DSSC is of low power. a small value of reactance is emulated in the line. Large number of DSSC’s are distributed along the transmission line at regular intervals to realize considerable change in the current. A particle swarm optimization is implemented to determine DSSC’s emulated reactance optimally. In this condition, all the lines flowing power in their limits with increased loading condition. Maximum system loadability index is evaluated by employing optimal number of DSSC’s on the line. A multiobjective problem is formulated. One objective function is formed such that no line would become overloaded even when loading is increased. Other objective is formulated to minimize reactive power generation by generators. A compromise solution is investigated for optimally connected of DSSC devices to achieve both the objective functions. IEEE 14 bus system is taken for MATLAB simulation of DSSC compensated system.

Abstract

This paper presents a time-domain (TD) approach based on hybrid artificial intelligence (AI) to speed up convergence of radiating sources characterization in power electronics. To obtain a representative equivalent model of device under test, a dedicated optimization framework has been developed in TD using a particle swarm optimization (PSO) toolbox. In addition, for elementary feature extraction, a pseudo-Zernike moment invariant (PZMI) descriptor has been defined. Finally, with the aim of identifying remaining dipole parameters and classification problems, artificial neural networks (ANN) have been implemented. A coupling of TD electromagnetic (EM) inverse method based on a PSO algorithm along with PZMI and ANN application has been investigated and applied to a real test case. Experimental measurements have been conducted using the near-field scanning technique above an alternating current (AC)/direct current (DC) converter. Obtained results are discussed based on a comparison between measured and estimated EM field distributions using both the hybrid AI method and a conventional TD inverse method based on genetic algorithms (GA) only. This study confirms that, compared with those given by non-hybrid method, the proposed algorithm further improves the convergence speed while maintaining high accuracy. Hence, the present work offers an impressive perspective for radiated emissions characterization using hybrid AI algorithms.
