This paper describes the dynamic performance of two area interconnected hydro-hydro power systems when subjected to 1% step load perturbation. For this present study, the system is incorporated with conventional Proportional-Integral (PI) controller and Fuzzy Logic Controller (FLC). The dc link is used as system interconnection in parallel with ac tie-lines. The dc link is considered to be oper...

This paper presents a hybrid fuzzy-PID controller for air flow supply on a Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) system. The control objective is to adjust the oxygen excess ratio at a given setpoint in order to prevent oxygen starvation and damage of the fuel-cell stack. The proposed control scheme combines a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and classical PID controller with a view to benefit...

Currently, the production of the rapid increasing electrical energy in Kuwait depends mainly on oil and its derivatives, which result in environmental pollution. Moreover, the export of oil production represents a key income for Kuwait and any saving in its consumption represents an essential concern to land’s economy. Therefore, the power utility and economy of Kuwait will benefit from substit...

-The performance of fuzzy logic (FLC) and PID controllers optimized by particle swarm optimization (PSO) for semi-active suspension system using magneto-rheological (MR) damper are investigated. MR damper is an intelligent damper filled with particle magnetic polarizable and suspended into a liquid form. The Bouc-Wen model of MR damper is used to determine the required damping force based on fo...

Speed control of DC Motor is vital in many applications. In this paper, an effort has been made to control the speed of the DC motor using fuzzy logic control (FLC) based on LabVIEW (Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench) program. LabVIEW provides a graphical programming environment suited for high-level or system-level design. The fuzzy logic controller designed to apply the requ...

In this paper, we propose a hybrid genetic algorithm with fuzzy logic controller (flc-hGA) to solve the resource-constrained multiple project scheduling problem (rc-mPSP) which is well known NP-hard problem. Objectives described in this paper are to minimize total project time and to minimize total tardiness penalty. However, it is difficult to treat the rc-mPSP problems with traditional optimi...

Here in this paper we proposed an improved technique to reduce the power quality problems in Long distance AC transmission system with fuzzy logic controller (FLC).
