With the dramatic growth of nonlinear loads, it is desired to improve active filters performance and enhance their capacity. One of the most favorable methods is applying distributed active filter system (DAFS) in which leads to minimizing the cost, weight & size .The main purpose of this paper is to determine the locations and sizes of distributed active filter system (DAFS) With emphasis on r...

A new low-leakage-inductance low-resistance design approach to low-voltage high-power isolated boost converters is presented. Very low levels of parasitic circuit inductances are achieved by optimizing transformer design and circuit lay-out. Primary side voltage clamp circuits can be eliminated by the use of power MOSFETs fully rated for repetitive avalanche. Voltage rating of primary switches ...

This paper addresses issues related to reactive power, voltage support and transmission losses as dictated from a certain class of electric loads. Specifically, it addresses the impact of predominantly induction motor loads on voltage support, reactive power requirements, and transmission losses. These issues are examined with a model, which explicitly models the induction motor mechanical load...

Modern this paper proposes non dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) which has feature of adaptive crowding distance for finding optimal location and sizing of Static Var Compensators (SVC) in order to minimize real power losses and voltage deviation and also to improve voltage profile of a power system at the same time. While finding the optimal location and size of SVC, single line ou...

This paper presents a high step-up boost converter with diode capacitor technique. In this topology an additional stage of voltage multiplier cells (diodes and capacitors) is incorporated into the conventional boost converter which will increase the voltage gain and efficiency of the converter. The peculiarity of this new method is that the switching losses, ripples and the stresses are low. An...

Recent years, embedded generators have been increasingly installed in distribution system in many parts of the world. Depending on their operating characteristics and locations, embedded generators could significantly affect the voltage profile, network losses and fault level in a distribution system. This paper presents a new technique for determining optimal allocation and sizing of embedded ...

This article deals with the influence of distributed generation (DG) on distribution line losses with respect to voltage profile. The article focuses on the development of a control strategy to minimize the grid losses and assure fairness regarding reactive power contributions. As retail customers typically have no choice where they are located along a feeder, it seems unfair that only some of ...

In this paper, Series-Parallel LLC type of DC DC resonant power converter configuration that uses a Compression Network (CN) has been proposed. The purpose of this CN is to maintain desired current waveform over entire range of voltage operating condition. The proposed circuit maintains high efficiency over wide range of power level. Also, the closed loop PI and fuzzy controller is used on the ...
