Brushless doubly fed reluctance generator (BDFRG) has been recently suggested as a wind generator. Different control methods are presented in literature for the BDFRG, but there is a gap on control under unbalanced grid voltage condition (UGVC). This paper presents a predictive direct power control (PDPC) method for the BDFRG under UGVC. The proposed PDPC method is based on power compensation s...

this paper introduces an indirect adaptive fuzzy sliding mode controller as a power system stabilizer for damping local and inter-area modes of oscillations of multi-machine power systems. this controller is designed based on the combination of sliding mode controller and the fuzzy logic systems. the fuzzy systems are used to approximate the unknown functions of power system model. generator sp...

In this paper, a new control scheme of an active boost rectifier has been presented. Proposed power control method uses a discretetime model of the converter to predict future behaviour for all possible voltage vectors. The most effective vector is chosen for next sampling period by minimizing a cost function. Presented Predictive Direct Power Control (P-DPC) scheme has been compared with class...

An active power filter implemented with a four-leg voltage-source inverter using a predictive control scheme is presented. The use of a four-leg voltagesource inverter allows the compensation of current harmonic components, as well as unbalanced current generated by single-phase nonlinear loads. A detailed yet simple mathematical model of the active power filter, including the effect of the equ...

Harmonic contamination and low power factor in power systems caused by power converters have been a great concern. The effect of harmonics in current due to lagging power factor are the increase in current flow in the capacitors which results in additional heating of the capacitors and reduce its life, increased magnitudes of neutral currents in three phase systems, over-heating in transformers...

capital asset pricing model (capm) has been among the common models to estimate expected returns rate. since the linearity assumption is considered in the standard version of the capital asset pricing model, estimating beta in nonlinear setting will be inconsistent and bias-oriented. therefore, this study tries to evaluate predictive power of nonlinear capital asset pricing model as well as sta...

In this paper, photovoltaic (PV) grid-connected inverter which is the core device in PV grid-connected system has been in depth research.An improved predictive current controller has been developed by the Authors for single-phase grid-connected voltage source inverters (VSI).Based on DSP TMS320LF2407A, a 10 kW single-phase grid-connected inverter has been built in this paper.Thus is aimed at us...

A usual argument against GPC is its demand for processing power. In industry, however, this is not a serious argument if better control performance can be reached. As the development of new processors with increased performance takes place rather rapidly, the lag of processing power never was a long-term issue to prevent new algorithms from being introduced. This paper presents a practical real...
