This paper presents the application of dynamic voltage restorers (DVR) on power distribution Systems for mitigation of voltage sags/swells at critical loads. DVR is one of the compensating types of custom power devices. An adequate modeling and simulation of DVR, including controls in MATLAB, show the flexibility and easiness of the MATLAB environment in studying and Understanding such compensa...

Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) restores the distribution system load voltage to a nominal balanced sinusoidal voltage, when the source voltage has distortions, sag/swell and unbalances. DVR has to inject a required amount of Volt-Amperes (VA) into the system to maintain a nominal balanced sinusoidal voltage at the load. Keeping the cost effectiveness of DVR, it is desirable to have a minimum VA...

Pathways and densities of descending vasa recta (DVR) and ascending vasa recta (AVR) in the outer zone of the inner medulla (IM) were evaluated to better understand medullary countercurrent exchange. Nearly all urea transporter B (UT-B)-positive DVR, those vessels exhibiting a continuous endothelium, descend with little or no branching exclusively through the intercluster region. All DVR have a...

The growing rate of energy consumption is a reason for establishment of new power plants which leads to increment in fault current level. One of the solutions to overcome this problem is utilization of fault current limiters (FCLs). Another concerning issue in energy generation is the satisfactory voltage quality in grid and to deal with it, a power electronic based device, known as dynamics vo...

STUDY DESIGN A comparative clinical study of two main corrective manoeuvres in scoliosis surgery. OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness of two main corrective manoeuvres: single concave rod rotation (SCRR) and direct vertebral rotation (DVR) in regard to apical vertebral rotation (AVR) and rib hump correction in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) surgery. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA It r...

We tested the hypothesis that constriction of descending vasa recta (DVR) is mediated by voltage-gated calcium entry. K(+) channel blockade with BaCl(2) (1 mM) or TEACl (30 mM) depolarized DVR smooth muscle/pericytes and constricted in vitro-perfused vessels. Pericyte depolarization by 100 mM extracellular KCl constricted DVR and increased pericyte intracellular Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](i)). The K(ATP)...

-----------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT----------------------------------------------------Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is used in power distribution system to protect sensitive loads in voltage disturbances. The performance of DVR is related to the adopted configuration and control strategy used for inverters. In this paper, matrix converter with reduced number of...

This report presents the development process of a web-based digital video recorder system (DVR). The conventional DVR system is mainly designed and used for local program recording. We developed a new DVR system that can be accessible from any where in the world through the web interface. By using the new system, a user can record and watch TV programs across countries.

Descending vasa recta (DVR) are 15-microm vessels that perfuse the renal medulla. Ouabain has been shown to augment DVR endothelial cytoplasmic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](CYT)) signaling. In this study, we examined the expression of the ouabain-sensitive Na-K-ATPase alpha2 subunit in the rat renal vasculature and tested effects of acute ouabain exposure and chronic ouabain treatment on DVR. Immunostainin...

Dynamic Voltage Restorer is a power electronic device that can protect sensitive loads from various disturbances in the power supply. This paper presents the study & analysis of DVR and power quality problems, voltage sag & swells with its application at Low Voltage and Medium Voltage level. DVR is always connected in series with the distribution feeder. The basic principle of a DVR is simple, ...
