The paper analyses generator operations of asynchronous machines when they are connected to a passive electrical network either directly or by an intermediate static power converter. The analysis is performed by taking into account the saturation phenomena of the main magnetic circuits of the machine. Mathematical models of both physical configurations are given and their non-linearities are ev...

In this paper, a new high efficiency, high step-up, non-isolated, interleaved DC-DC converter for renewable energy applications is presented. In the suggested topology, two modified step-up KY converters are interleaved to obtain a high conversion ratio without the use of coupled inductors. In comparison with the conventional interleaved DC-DC converters such as boost, buck-boost, SEPIC, ZETA a...

in this article our objective is to obtain steady state characteristics of shunt, series, and separately excited dc motors coupled with a centrifugal water pump supplied through a step-up, step-down, and cuk converter from photovoltaic generator. we assume that there are no storage batteries and, of course, the system must operate on maximum utilization i.e. maximum water must be pumped. it is ...

This work presents a Wound Field Synchronous Generators (WFSG) terminal voltage control system modeling and design. The approach proposes simple robust static excitation using Buck converter powered from an external source. calculation of the RMS value voltages for feedback is replaced by obtaining vd component three-phase voltages. Experimental results prove maintenance within established limi...

the monolithic catalytic converter is still the main pollution control device for modern vehicles in order to reach the ever-increasing legislative demands for low emission standards. the catalytic converters require a large expansion from the exhaust pipe to the front face of the monolith. unfortunately, packaging constraints often do not permit the use of long diffusers. hence, flow separatio...

Flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) controllers are important to enhance the quality of power in systems. The stability a is achieved via FACTS device (a Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM)). This paper aims control losses during peak energy demand circumstances with minimal economical and functional efficiency system. STATCOM operation seven level voltage source conve...

In this paper, sliding mode control (SMC) for a bidirectional buck/boost DC-DC converter (BDC) with constant frequency in continuous conduction mode (CCM) is discussed. Since the converter is a high-order converter, the reduced-order sliding manifold is exploited. Because of right-half-plan zero (RHPZ) in the converter’s duty ratio to output voltage transfer function, sliding mode current...
