Abstract

Islanding detection of Distributed Generation (DG) is considered as one of the most important aspects when interconnecting DGs to the distribution system. It was the crucial problem in distributed generation. This detection phenomenon having a great importance. These detection methods are divided into active and passive islanding detection. These two methods are based on changing in parameters such as frequency, voltage and current harmonics. But these methods have some challenges such as reduction in power quality and large Non Detection Zone (NDZ). In this paper, the proposed method is change of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) will be studied for islanding detection diagnosis. The studied system was considered by following the standard IEEE-1547 and UL-1741. The system was simulated using MATLAB/ SIMULINK.

In this paper will discuss the characteristics of the generator voltage when under load, pure resistance, inductive load and capacitive load. The results showed that when given a purely resistive load, the terminal voltage tends to be constant, but if given the inductive load, the voltage drop occurs significantly approaching zero voltage at full load current. It is very different when loaded capacitive load. When the generator under load is capacitive, the generator voltage at full load increased by 224.7% from no-load voltage.pacitive load.

Abstract

The present work deals with the economic rescheduling of the generation in an hour-ahead electricity market. The schedules of various generators in a power system have been optimizing according to active power demand bids by various load buses. In this work, various aspects of power system such as congestion management, voltage stabilization and loss minimization have also taken into consideration for the achievement of the goal. The Interior Point (IP) based Optimal Power Flow (OPF) methodology has been used to obtain the optimal generation schedule for economic system operation. The IP based OPF methodology has been tested on a modified IEEE-30 bus system. The obtained test results shows that not only the generation cost is reduced also the performance of power system has been improved using proposed methodology.

Abstract

This paper present steady state and dynamic (Transient) models of the doubly fed induction generator connected to grid. The steady state model of the DFIAG (doubly fed asynchronous induction generator) has been constructed by referring all the rotor quantities to stator side. With the help of MATLAB programming simulation results are obtained to depict the steady state response of electromechanical torque, rotor speed, stator and rotor currents, stator and rotor fluxes, active and reactive drawn and delivered by Doubly Fed Asynchronous Induction Machine (DFAIM) as it is operating in two modes i.e. generator and motor. The mathematical steady state and transient model of the DFIAM is constructed for three basic reference frames such as rotor, stator and synchronously revolving reference frame using first order deferential equations. The effect of unsaturated and saturated resultant flux on the mutual inductance is also taken into account to deeply understand the dynamic response of the machine. The steady state and dynamic response of the DFAIG are compared for different rotor voltage magnitudes. Also, the effect of variations in mechanical input torque, stator voltage variations are simulated to predict the stator and rotor currents, active and reactive power, electromagnetic torque and rotor speed variations.

Abstract

This paper presents the design and analysis of a novel polygon connected autotransformer based 30-phase ac-dc converter which supplies Direct Torque Controlled Induction Motor Drives (DTCIMD’s) in order to have better power quality conditions at the point of common coupling. The proposed converter output voltage is accomplished via three paralleled 10- pulse ac-dc converters each of them consisting of 5-phase diode bridge rectifier. An autotransformer is designed to supply the rectifiers. The proposed converter requires only three inter-phase transformers in the dc link that leads to the reduced kilovolt ampere rating, size, weight, and cost of the proposed rectifier. The design procedure of magnetics is in a way such that makes it suitable for retrofit applications where a six-pulse diode bridge rectifier is being utilized. The aforementioned structure improves power quality criteria at ac mains and makes them consistent with the IEEE-519 standard requirements for varying loads. Furthermore, near unity power factor is obtained for a wide range of DTCIMD operation. A comparison is made between 6-pulse and proposed converters from view point of power quality indices. Results show that input current Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is less than 3% for the proposed topology at variable loads.

Abstract

This paper presents an investigation about the impact of integrating renewable energy based generation sources on the existing distribution system in terms of load sharing. The study of load sharing among various distributed generators (DGs) and utility grid has been performed for two cases: (a) when equivalent source based DG is connected and (b) when real PV/Fuel cell based DG is properly integrated to the distribution system. The real photovoltaic and fuel cell based DG do not behave as stiff current/voltage source due to disturbances happening either internally in system known as parametric uncertainties or due to external disturbances like weather conditions, load change etc. Further it has been observed with extensive analysis using simulation result, that even though all DGs are of equal capacity in their generation but when the load is either increased or decreased this doesn’t essentially guarantee that all DGs will equally share the active and reactive power demand.

Abstract

The paper presents the potential use of supplemental control of a new economical phase imbalanced shunt compensation concept for damping sub synchronous resonance (SSR) oscillations. In this scheme, the shunt capacitive compensation in one phase is created by using a Single-Phase Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) in parallel with a fixed capacitor (Cc), and the other two phases are compensated by fixed shunt capacitor (C). The proposed arrangement would, certainly, be economically attractive when compared with a full three-phase STATCOM which have been used/proposed for power swings and SSR damping. SSR mitigation is achieved by introducing a supplemental signal into the control loops of single phase STATCOM. The validity and effectiveness of the proposed structure and supplemental control are demonstrated on a modified version of the IEEE second benchmark model for computer simulation of sub synchronous resonance by means of time domain simulation analysis using the Matlab program.

Abstract

Wind energy and solar energy are the prime energy sources which are being utilized for renewal energy. The performance of a photovoltaic (PV) array for solar energy is affected by temperature, irradiation, shading, and array configuration. Often, the PV arrays are shadowed, completely or partially, by the passing clouds, neighboring buildings and towers, trees, and utility and telephone poles. Under partially shaded conditions, the PV characteristics are more complex with multiple peaks, hence, it is very important to understand and predict the MPP under PSC in order to extract the maximum possible power. This paper presents the development of PV array simulator for studying the I–V and P–V characteristics of a PV array under a partial shading condition. It can also be used for developing and evaluating new maximum power point tracking techniques, for PV array with partially shaded conditions. It is observed that, for a given number of PV modules, the array configuration significantly affects the maximum available power under partially shaded conditions. This is another aspect to which the developed tool can be applied. The model has been experimentally validated and the usefulness of this research is highlighted with the help of several illustrations.
