Abstract

This work proposes investigation on symmetrical three phase hybrid cascaded multilevel inverter topology with reduced number of switches and is able to create five level output. The main advantage of the proposed work is to reduce the number of switches when compared to the Cascaded Multi Level Inverter (CMLI). The reduced number of switches reduces the switching losses and improves the efficiency of the inverter. The variation of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in the inverter output voltage is observed for various modulation indices. Simulation is performed using MATLAB-SIMULINK. By comparing the various PWM techniques, such as COPWM-1, COPWM-2, COPWM-3 and COPWM-4, it is observed that Carrier Overlapping Pulse Width Modulation-3 (COPWM-3) provides output with relatively low distortion for all strategies and better DC bus utilization is obtained in (COPWM-1) and also comparing the various variable amplitude techniques, such as VACOPWM-1, VACOPWM-2, VACOPWM-3 and VACOPWM-4, it is observed that Variable Amplitude Carrier Overlapping Pulse Width Modulation-3 (VACOPWM-3) provides output with relatively low distortion for all strategies and better DC bus utilization. Finally comparing the various PWM techniques with the various variable amplitude techniques, It is observed that Variable Amplitude Carrier Overlapping Pulse Width Modulation-3 (VACOPWM-3) provides output with relatively low distortion for all strategies and better DC bus utilization is obtained in (VACOPWM-2).

Abstract

This paper presents a novel method for the determination of temperature rise in rotating electrical machine. Rise in the winding temperature was determined from the estimated values of winding resistance during the heat run test conducted as per IEC standard. The estimation of hot resistance was modeled using multiple variable linear regression . The modeled hot resistance helps to find the load losses at any load situation without using complicated measurement set –up. This technique was applied for the hot resistance estimation for Switched Reluctance Machine using the input variables as cold resistance, ambient temperature and temperature rise. The results are compared and they show a good agreement between measured and the computed values. The proposed method was verified using experimental results obtained from temperature rise test on a 2 H.P 8/6 Switched Reluctance Machine.

Abstract

In this paper, an ac/dc converter is presented that can boost very low ac voltages to a higher dc voltage. The converter is based on a new hybrid form of boost converter and a buck boost converter and it is suitable for power harvesting applications too. The measured prototype can supply 3.3V by converting an input voltage of 400mV delivered by an electromagnetic microgenerator. Detailed analysis of converter is carried out and based on that control schemes are proposed to operate the converter.

Abstract

Because of increased distributed energy generation in medium voltage systems, handling of short circuits becomes problematic as the short circuit power is increased. Hence in future classical mechanical circuit breakers which are being used for the protection of power system and its components from the abnormal conditions will not be able to handle the fault current. It has already proven that the usage of power semiconductor devices could lead to reduced current values and voltage distortion during a short circuit failure. The Solid State Circuit Breakers, based on modern high power semiconductors, offer enormous advantages when compared to mechanical circuit breaker with respect to speed and life. This increases the voltage quality and also improves the transient stability during short circuit as the Solid State Circuit Breakers works faster than the conventional mechanical circuit breaker. A new topology developed for SSCB can be used to protect the power system to enhance reliability. This paper presents different three phase fault analysis of a power system with Solid State Circuit Breaker to estimate the performance of the SSCB during abnormal conditions. The simulations on the model two bus system have been performed to access the effectiveness of SSCB during faults. It is shown that SSCB is an effective choice which can replace the existing mechanical circuit breaker. The results of three phase short circuit, Line to Ground and open Circuit faults are presented.

Abstract

This paper proposes an application of Differential Evolution Technique(DE) for solving short- term scheduling problem.Generally Short-term hydrothermal scheduling involves the hour by hour scheduling of all generation on a system to achieve minimum production cost.A set of starting conditions is given and the optimal hourly schedule that minimizes the desired objective,while meeting hydraulic and steam constraints is sought and solved using Differential Evolution. . The results are examined to validated the effectiveness of the algorithm in comparision with other Meta heuristic algorithms like GA, GS, IFEP, SA and PSO.
