Usage of flywheel energy storage system (FESS) is a common method for frequency regulation due to its high power injection capacity and long life time. FESS is equipped by two back-to-back inverters including grid-side inverter and machine-side inverter. In conventional method, the machine-side inverter sets the active power and machine flux while grid-side inverter sets the reactive power and ...

This paper focuses on multi-machine communication, a communication pattern, based on I2C-bus. First, this article briefly introduces the features, byte format and communication mechanism of I2C-bus. Then, the shortcomings of I2C-bus are overcome effectively by applying I2C-bus extender and single-line handshake which is based on interrupt. After that, document adds details about data frame, add...

This paper proposes a swarm intelligence method that yields optimal Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) Controller parameters of a power system stabilizer (PSS) in a single machine infinite bus system. The proposed method utilizes the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm approach to generate the optimal tuning parameters. The paper is modeled in the MATLAB Simulink Environment to anal...

In this article, a new observer-based nonlinear controller for excitation control of synchronous generator is presented. First, a nonlinear sliding mode observer for the synchronous machine damper currents is developed. Second, the existence of a control law for the complete seventh order model of a generator, which takes into account the stator dynamics as well as the damper effects, is proved...

Abstract: Artificial neural network (ANN) control of static compensator (STATCOM) to improve the damping of power systems is presented. The proposed control strategy is applied on a STATCOM attached to a single machine-infinite bus (SMIB) and a multi-machine power systems that include a superconducting generator (SCG). The proposed control method, ANN-STATCOM is designed based on proportional i...
