active filters have proven to be more effective than passive techniques to improve power quality and to solve harmonic and power factor problems due to nonlinear loads. this paper proposes a control scheme based on the instantaneous active and reactive power. the inverter of this active filter is a three-phase, two-level converter. space vector technique is used as modulators and pattern genera...

this paper proposes an optimal power flow (opf) algorithm by direct load control (dlc) programs to optimize the operational cost of smart grids considering various scenarios based on different constraints. the cost function includes active power production cost of available power sources and a novel flexible load curtailment cost associated with dlc programs. the load curtailment cost is based ...

population growth, industrial pollution and high-energy consumption, cause the release of significant amounts of pollutants in the environment. power plants play an important role in the release of pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and carbon dioxide. if the necessary measures in the field of prevention and control do not be implemented, human health and other living creatures...

Purpose This study aims to form a new concept of power-to-gas-based virtual power plant (GVPP) and propose low-carbon economic scheduling optimization model for GVPP considering carbon emission trading. Design/methodology/approach In view the strong uncertainty wind photovoltaic generation in GVPP, information gap decision theory (IGDT) is used measure tolerance threshold under different expect...

An embedded test system to assess the dynamic performance of a process plant is proposed. A simple Process rate controller plant and a simple chemical plant are taken as models and the test systems are synthesized. In each system a virtual plant performing all tasks of real time plant is emulated and an analysis package to assess the performance is incorporated. The virtual plant is synthesized...

In this paper, a multi-objective optimization method is implemented by using of genetic algorithm techniques in order to determine optimum configuration of solar chimney power plant. The objective function which is simultaneously considered in the analysis is output power of the plant. Output power of the system is maximized. Design parameters of the considered plant include collector radius (R...
