Virtual Instrument for Capacitors Bank Dimension
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper presents a virtual instrument developed for capacitors bank dimension as to compensate the reactive power and to raise the power factor in power systems. The mathematical support of the software is accurately described in papers 2 section, along with the negative effects of a low power factor and the advantages of using capacitors banks for reaching the neutral power factor. The 3 section of the paper describes the virtual instrument with its main features and graphical user interface that contains 6 parts. The capacitors bank sizing is made based on the following criterions: reach the power factor imposed by the user, minimum number of capacitors bank steps, and minimum capacitors bank dimensions.

Virtual Flux Based Direct Power Control on Vienna Rectifier
This paper proposes the virtual flux based direct power control for Vienna rectifier. No need for the input voltage sensors, the current regulation loop and PWM voltage modulation block along with the active and reactive power decoupling are some of the salient advantages of this method that make it suitable for controlling the conventional active rectifiers. However, due to the three-level nat...
متن کاملThermal instability of electrolytic capacitor bank used for gas puff valve
It is shown that self-heating of electrolytic capacitors causes the output current of a capacitor bank to increase with successive shots even though the charge voltage is held constant. Self heating of only 10 °C can cause a near tripling in the gas output of the gas puffing valves commonly used in spheromak research. By using metallized polypropylene film capacitors instead of electrolytic cap...

متن کاملEfficient Optimal Sizing And Allocation Of Capacitors In Radial Distribution Systems Using Drdlf And Differential Evolution
A distribution system is an interface between the bulk power system and the consumers. The radial distribution system is popular among these because of its low cost and simple design. The voltage instability in the power system is characterized by a monotonic voltage drop, which is slow at first and becomes abrupt after some time when the system is unable to meet the increasing power demand. Th...
