In today’s era power quality is the main issue mainly for welding load which includes the problems like total harmonic distortion, voltage sags, voltage swells, voltage distortions etc. In this paper we will discuss about the Total Harmonic Distortions for the welding load by using the simple modular dc-dc converter, modular bridge dc-dc converter and by using the ZSource Converter using Dynami...

Thyristor rectifiers are widely used in electric railways in order to control the speed. As a consequence of their usage in addition to substantial input lead current, an enormous amount of harmonics is injected into the grid. To avoid such harmonics as well as reactive power compensation, reactive power hybrid filters consisting of active and passive filters are utilized. Regarding different p...

Background and Objectives: Despite superior privileges that multiphase motors offer in comparison with their three-phase counterparts, in the field of multiphase linear induction motors (LIMs) few studies have been reported until now. To combine the advantages of both multiphase motors and linear induction motors, this paper concentrates on multiphase LIM drives considering the end effects. Met...

This work proposes three phase five level Bridge module type Diode Clamped Multilevel Inverter (DCMLI) using various modulating techniques for induction motor load. These Pulse Width Modulating (PWM) techniques include Carrier Overlapping (CO) strategy, Variable Frequency (VF) strategy, Phase Shift (PS) strategy and Sub-Harmonic Pulse Width Modulation (SHPWM) i.e. Phase Disposition (PD) strateg...

This paper examines efficient methods for the calculation of open circuit voltage distortion in salient pole synchronous generators with damper windings. It then proceeds to examine the role of damper bars in the level of distortion. The simplified finite element method employed is inclusive of eddy current effects, dynamic field current and full interaction of all MMF sources. It allows accura...

Abetmct A concept of optimal surplus harmonies distribution in selective harmonic elimination PWM teehnique for multilevel inverters is introduced in this paper. There m e several performance indexes that fan he optimized in PWM inverters, e.g., distortion factor, current or voltage total harmonic distortion, or efficiency. Minimisation of magnetic noise is selected as an example here. Several ...

OF THE DISSERTATION Harmonic Distortion Correction in Pipelined Analog to Digital Converters

This paper presents a method based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm applied to estimate harmonic components in radial distribution feeders. It is important to mention that this method is not applied as harmonic state estimator, neither to estimate the total harmonic distortion at the substation. So, the proposed method can be employed to estimate the harmonic components in specific ...

Harmonic adaptability (HA) capability is required for large-scale onshore and offshore wind turbines (WTs) connected to the grid. To ensure that the distortion of the harmonic voltage at the grid access point generated by grid simulator is in accordance with the required value, this paper proposes an on-site HA remote testing method for offshore WTs to eliminate submarine cable effects. The dev...

This paper presents an improved method for determining the share of harmonic distortion generated by utility and customer in a distribution system. The method is based on a Norton equivalent circuit to represent the whole system, modeling the customer side with RLC components by using measured voltage and current at the point of common coupling (PCC). The proposed method evaluates the contribut...
