<![CDATA[This paper presents bridgeless single ended primary inductor (SEPIC) converter operated in continuous conduction mode (CCM). The converter used in the study offers a lesser conduction loss compared to the other bridgeless SEPIC converter. In order to regulate the required output current and output voltage with high efficiency while achieving high power factor correction (PFC) at the input side, average current mode control (ACMC) is applied. The model is simulated using MATLAB/Simulink and it is found that the converter and the proposed control strategy provide a promising result. The preliminary results obtained from the experimental test-rig shows a good agreement as in simulation. The theoretical analysis of the proposed controller is verified on an output 100V to 300W prototype.]]>

<![CDATA[Batteries are one of the main elements in Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPSs). To maintain good operation during power failure, UPSs must have adequate energy for their operation. It depends on the reliability and performance of batteries. Owing to low capital cost and wide availability, lead-acid batteries have been used extensively as the main energy source in UPSs. Nevertheless, as batteries technology grown, Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries have offered more promising performance than lead-acid batteries; they are installed in various portable electronic devices. This paper provides an overview of the performance of lead-acid and NiMH batteries during the operation of a single-phase UPS. Their performances are studied based on 2 characteristics which are discharge curve and State of Charge (SOC). Based on those characteristics, both batteries have shown different performances. Simulation results have shown that the NiMH battery exhibits better discharge curve with higher voltage capacity and constant discharge current, and it is more reliable to obtain 12V at minimum percentage of SOC than the lead-acid battery.]]>

<![CDATA[Wind turbine is one of the present renewable energy sources that has become the most popular. The operational and maintenance cost is continuously increasing, especially for wind generator. Early fault detection is very important to optimise the operational and maintenance cost. The goal of this project is to study fault detection and classification for a wind turbine (WT) by using artificial neural network (ANN). In this project, a single phase fault was placed at 9 MW doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) WT in MATLAB Simulink. The WT was tested under different conditions, i.e., normal condition, fault at Phase A, Phase B and Phase C. The simulation results were used as inputs in the ANN model for training. Then, a new set of data was taken under different conditions as inputs for ANN fault classifier. The target outputs of ANN fault classifier were set as ‘0’ or ‘1’, based on the fault condition. Results obtained showed that the ANN fault classifier outputs had followed the target outputs. In conclusion, the WT fault detection and classification method by using ANN were successfully developed.]]>

<![CDATA[In recent years, there is an immensely huge demand to power due to industrialization and modernization, butcorrespondingly the amplification of generation and transmission has not been done due to constrained resources and environmental limitations. The huge growth in demand leads to various problems in power systems. Heavy growth in semiconductor technology made power electronics plays a key role in solving these problems. Flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices are used for fixing various problems in power system. They are used for enhancing the existing transmission capabilities and improving the system dynamic performance so that to make transmission system flexible and efficient in operation. Inter line power flow controller (IPFC) is a latest generation series connected FACTS device, having capability of controlling power flow among multi line in a transmission network. In this paper cascaded 5 level inverter is used as the inverter module for IPFC. Control techniques play a vital role in power flow control in the system, with the main objective of minimization of harmonics and obtaining a variable output with maximum fundamental component. This paper discusses various comparative case studies on IPFC with cascaded 5 level inverter using SPWM and SVM control techniques.]]>

<![CDATA[This work highlights a modular power conditioning system (PCS) in photovoltaic (PV) applications which consists with a DC-DC converter. The converter is able to regulate and amplify the input DC voltage produced by the PV panal. The implementation of Mosfet as bidirectional switch on the converter yields greater conversion ratio and better voltage regulation than a conventional DC-DC step up converter and PWM resonant converter. It also reduces the switching losses on the output DC voltage of the converter, as the MOSFET switches on primary winding of converter switch on under ZVS conditions. The proposed resonant converter has been designed, with the modification of series resonant converter and PWM boost converter that utilizes the high frequency of AC bidirectional switch to eliminate the weaknesses of used converters. The topology of the proposed converter includes the mode of operations, designing procedure and components selection of the new converter elements. This topology provides a DC output voltage to the inverter at range of about 120Vac-208 Vac. ]]>

<![CDATA[Energy demand taking a bigger leap day by day, Renewable energy gets the most leading importance in catering the purpose. Solar being the abundantly available renewable energy resource solar panels are key components in harnessing solar energy. Solar energy is the most dependable and cheap energy in renewable sector. But harnessing solar energy with partial shading makes it difficult for simple tracking algorithm because of multiple power peak points. Settling time of DC link voltage during the dynamics in the load and the irradiation also plays a major role in power delivered to the grid . Highly dynamic situation aware processors have been in the verge for many applications where large amount of online processing is a need like the smart grid, which needs a faster online reacting time. This paper deals with such an online reacting Maximum Power Point Optimization (MPPO) on a PV system with Partial shaded condition (PSC). The MPPO uses the recent non-parametric optimization techniques like Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for maximizing the power delivered from the solar panel. This optimization is achieved by populating the duty cycle and Kp and Ki parameters of PI controller given to the DC-DC converter connected to the PV arrays for the stable supply to the grid. While applying the maximization algorithm for the solar power output from the PV arrays the PSC conditions are considered in order to make the control technique more robust. This paper deals with minimization of DC link voltage settling time and maximization of power in multi-objective,. MATLAB based simulation is carried and the comparative inference is produced in this paper. The simulation is developed for the 2.5kW PV array with the proposed method. The simulation carried out had performed better with the proposed method than the single objective method.Satisfactory results were observed both in the simulation of the proposed algorithm.]]>

<![CDATA[In this paper, a hybrid power system is proposed to eliminate any interruption caused to absence of power supply network by the Fusion between the wind source and the photovoltaic source to create a hybrid system with internal power supply autonomy. The hybrid power system includes a solar and wind source whose wind energy conversion system is based on a doubly fed induction generator. The photovoltaic conversion system extracts the maximum power from the sun. A part of this power is used to supply the rotor of a doubly fed induction generator; the rest is injected in the grid. The connection between the two conversion systems is made by means of static converters (chopper/inverter). In the photovoltaic conversion chain, a controller for tracking the maximum power point is designed using the direct search approach the Perturb and observe method. The wind energy conversion system contains a doubly fed asynchronous generator with a control system of generated powers by the technique of the fuzzy logic. The simulation was done to prove the validity of the strategy and of the control method used for the control of the power generated by the hybrid system.]]>

<![CDATA[This paper presents a proposed modified pulse width modulation – low frequency triangular (MPWM-LFT) switching strategy for minimization of voltage THD with implementation of asymmetric multilevel inverter (AMLI) topology on the reduced number of switching devices (RNSD) circuit structure. Principally, MPWM-LFT able to produce optimum angle of the output voltage level in order to minimize total harmonic distortion (THD). In this study, 5-level reduced number of switching devices circuit structure is selected as a circuit configuration for asymmetric (7-level structure) multilevel inverter. For switching strategy, MPWM used low switching frequency in producing signal and needs higher output voltage levels to achieve low total harmonic distortion. In contrast, sinusoidal pulse width modulation used high switching frequency in order to minimize total harmonic distortion. By optimizing angle at the output voltage using MPWM-LFT switching strategy, the voltage THD is lower as compared to MPWM and SPWM switching strategies. MPWM-LFT switching strategy obtains 11.6% of voltage THD for the 7-level asymmetric topology as compared to MPWM and SPWM switching strategies with the voltage THD are 21.5% and 17.5% respectively from the experimental works.]]>

<![CDATA[Major depletion of fossil fuel and the increase of greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide, chloroflurocarbons (CFCs), hydroflurocarbon (HFCs), perflurocarbons (PFCs) and Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) worldwide are the catalyst for the interest of many counties towards renewable energy. The rising cost of electricity due to higher demand and less resource also led to the renewable energy venture. One of the most famous renewable energy is solar energy. Unfortunately, renewable energies are dependent on environment conditions, too. One of the major problems that affect the output energy of the solar panel is the cloud shadowing problem. Photovoltaic solar and wind hybrid system is capable to reduce the effects of the cloud shadowing by harvesting two different energy resources. However, the availability of wind energy harvesting has shown its instability performance. In this work, the photovoltaic solar array of the laboratory-scale single axis solar tracking system to maximize the output energy of the solar panel is examined experimentally. The solar array is connected in series and parallel configurations, and is experimented under different partical-shadowed conditions. The experimentation is done to develop a solar array that has a minimum effect towards this type of occurances. Experimental results proved that the parallel configured solar panel has showed less influence by the cloud shadowing as compared to the single one.]]>
