In the present scenario, the increasing penetration of solar energy can be significant challenge due to the variation of power generation. One of the solution to improve the quality of power supply and guarantee of system stability is energy storage system(ESS). In this project, a AC-DC hybrid micro grid is designed based on photovoltaic (PV), generator and energy storage system are coordinated...

The penetration of renewable energy in modern power system, microgrid has become a popular application worldwide. In this paper bidirectional converters for AC and DC hybrid microgrid application are proposed as an efficient interface. To reach the goal of bidirectional power conversion, both rectifier and inverter modes are analyzed. In order to achieve high performance operation and single-ph...

Wireless power transfer (WPT) has attracted an ever increasing interest from both industry and academics over the past few years. Its applications vary from small power devices such as mobile phones and tablets to high power electric vehicles, and from small transfer distance of centimeters to large distance of tens of centimeters. In order to achieve a high efficiency WPT system, each circuit ...

The doubly-fed generators (DFIG) have clear superiority for the applications of large capacity and limited-range speed control case due to the partially rated inverter, lower cost and high reliability. These characteristics enable the doubly-fed wound rotor induction machine to have vast applications in wind-driven generation.In this paper Combined Vector and direct power control (CVDPC) strate...

Brushless DC motors makes use of inverter encompassing static switches for its operation. A simple bridge converter when used for BLDC drive as front end converter makes input source power factor to get reduced wh...

Direct current (DC) distribution systems and DC microgrids are becoming a reliable and efficient alternative energy system, compatible with the DC nature of most of the distributed energy resources (DERs), storage devices and loads. The challenging problem of redesigning an autonomous DC-grid system in view of using energy storage devices to balance the power produced and absorbed, by applying ...

Power-factor-correction (PFC) power supplies are required to provide high input power factor and tight output voltage regulation. The usual configuration takes a two-stage cascade structure, consisting of a PFC preregulator and a dc/dc converter. Previous studies of the dynamical behaviour mainly focused on the boost PFC preregulator, assuming that it is being terminated by a resistive load. Ho...

The demand for portable devices such as cellular phones, PDAs, MP3 players and portable DVD players has grown significantly during the last few years. The portable devices usually include a variety of loads including LCD display, memories, mini microprocessor, Universal Series Bus (USB), and a hard disk drive. These loads require different operating voltages and load currents, and are powered b...
