A majority of computational efforts in the Newton Power Flow method lies in solving a set of linear equations. The traditional direct methods have been popular in solving a set of linear equations. However, the direct methods will find the exact solutions after a finite number of steps. Iterative methods, on the other hand, successively approximate the solutions to a predetermined degree of accuracy based on an initial guess. The preconditioners for “normalizing” linearized power mismatch equations were fixed at each Newton iteration. Recently, an adaptive preconditioner was proposed for the Jacobian-Free Newton-GMRES(m) method. Numerical studies shows that the proposed Newton- FGMRES method may consistently outperforms the traditional Newton method on practical power systems. In this paper, the FGMRES method is applied to solve linear equations arising from the Newton Power Flow Method. The authors have performed the analysis of both the methods for IEEE 30, 57 and 118 bus systems.
This paper presents the comparative application of two metaheuristic approaches: Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to the solution of the reactive power and voltage control problem. Efficient distribution of reactive power in an electric network leads to minimization of the system losses and improvement of the system voltage profile. It can be achieved by varying the excitation of generators, on-load tap changer positions of transformers as well as by switching of discrete portions of inductors or capacitors etc. The feasibility, effectiveness and generic nature of both GA and PSO approaches investigated are exemplarily demonstrated on the IEEE 14-bus, IEEE 30-bus, and IEEE 57-bus test systems with and without Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices. Comparisons were made between the two approaches in terms of the solution quality and convergence characteristics. An innovative statistical analysis based on central tendency measures and dispersion measures was carried out on the bus voltage profiles and voltage stability indices
This paper presents a speed sensorless Fuzzy based Indirect field oriented control using stator current based model reference adaptive system for the induction motor drive. Indirect Field Oriented Control (IFOC) is highly sensitive to the parameter variation and accuracy of the estimated speed. To fix the problem the traditional PI controller which converts the error speed signal in to torque signal is replaced by a fuzzy controller for increasing the dynamic response of the drive. The speed sensorless of the drive is achieved by the stator current based Model Reference Adaptive System (MRAS). In this MRAS measured stator current is considered as a reference model and is compared with the estimated stator current using the stator voltage-current model, and then adjusted with the estimated rotor speed calculated by the adaptation algorithm. The satisfactory results are obtained by the MATLAB simulation.
Now a days the requirement for renewable energy power production is increasing due to scarcity of conventional energy resource. So, one of the best renewable energy resource for production of electrical energy is wind. As most of the loads are lagging loads, losses will be more due to low power factor. In this Study, the authors suggest that even though capacitor bank is connected to compensate reactive power, and maintain voltage stability, there is no constant required power factor at all loads. Due to connection of capacitor in steps using capacitor bank, there is over compensation. So, power factor is low. So, in this paper they propose “Thy ristor Controlled Capacitor” to improve power factor in windmill power plant. The Expected results were obtained by using MATLAB soft ware tool. The data is collected from Wind mill power plant maintained by DECCAN CEMENTS LTD. located at RAMAGIRI, Anantapur (Dist), Andhra Pradesh, India.
With the increased compulsory usage of renewable energy resources, it is essential to efficiently use the energy produced from them. Such energy can be stored in fuel cells which work on the basis of electrolysis. A DC-DC converter is required to couple the electrolyser to the system DC bus. This paper is based on a new approach for achieving very high conversion efficiency in low-voltage high-power isolated boost DC-DC converter. The proposed DC-DC converter is realized in half-bridge topology in the rectifier side to achieve zero voltage switching for the power switches and to regulate the output voltage. Z-Source inverter is utilized to realize inversion and boost function in one single stage. In this DC-DC Converter the winding losses and the switch conduction losses are reduced. The transformer eddy-current and proximity effects are analyzed. The MATLAB simulation results show that the output of converter is free from the ripples and regulate the output voltage. The experimental results are verified to validate the simulation results. The ability to boost and buck voltage makes the Z-Source inverter very attractive for electrolyser application.
Providing quality of service (QoS) to different service classes with integrated real-time and non-real-time traffic is an important issue in broadband wireless access networks. Opportunistic MAC (OMAC) is a novel view of communication over spatio temporally varying wireless link where by the multi-user diversity is exploited rather than combated to maximize bandwidth efficiency or system throughput. It combines cross-layer design features and opportunistic scheduling scheme to achieve high utilization while providing QoS support to various applications. Channel characteristics, traffic characteristics and queue characteristics are the essential factors in the design of opportunistic scheduling algorithms. The authors propose a cross-layer MAC scheduling framework in WiMAX point-to multipoint (PMP) systems and a corresponding opportunistic scheduling algorithm to provide QoS support to the heterogeneous traffic. Extensive Simulation experiments have been carried out to evaluate the performance of our proposal. This can improve the performance of the WiMAX PMP systems in terms of packet loss rate, packet delay and system throughput. The proposed scheduling scheme effectively support rtps traffic to make rtps packets meeting their delay bounds.
In modern power systems controlling of power is flexible and easy by the use of Power Electronics devices. The recent advent of power electronics devices are FACTS Devices. These FACTS devices are playing a major role in the electrical industry. This paper presents the development of simple and efficient model for the suitable location of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). The UPFC location is found by using the congestion management technique. In this paper the location is found based on the Total Loss Sensitivity Indices (LSI). The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated on IEEE 5 bus system.
