This paper describes role of UPQC as applied to a 3P4W system to improve PQ. The Forth wire of 3P4W system is developed by means of neutral of series transformer. Neutral current which flows through neutral terminal of transformer is removed with the help of 4 leg voltage source inverter (VSI) topology for shunt part. The series transformer neutral will have 0 potential in all conditions of ope...

Microgrids are nowadays used to produce electric energy with more efficiency and advantage. However, the use of microgrids presents some challenges. One of the main problems of the microgrids widely used in electrical power systems is the control of voltage, frequency and load sharing balance among inverter- based distributed generators (DGs) in islanded mode. Droop method performance degra...

The problem of controlling three-phase, four-leg shunt active power filters (SAPF) is addressed in presence of nonlinear and/or unbalanced loads. A new control model for four-leg SAPF, taking into account for the electrical grid line impedance, is developed. The control objective is threefold: (i) compensating for the current harmonics and the reactive power absorbed by the nonlinear load; (ii)...

phase stand-alone inverter is caused by unbalanced load and a dead time distorts inverter output voltage more unsymmetrically. When the inverter supplies unbalanced load, three phase output voltages include unbalanced odd harmonics but dq-axis voltages at synchronous reference frame have even harmonics with different magnitude each other. In this paper, a new compensation method is proposed to ...

recently, a large amount of studies have been related to nonlinear systems with multi-degrees of freedom as well as continuous systems. the purpose of this paper is to optimize passive vibration absorbers in linear and nonlinear states for an euler-bernoulli beam with a nonlinear vibratory behavior under concentrated moving load. the goal parameter in the optimization is maximum deflection of t...

Load balancing algorithms improve a program's performance on unbalanced datasets, but can degrade performance on balanced datasets, because unnecessary load redistributions occur. This paper presents a cost-eeective data-parallel load balancing algorithm which performs load redistributions only when the possible savings outweigh the redistribution costs. Experiments with a data-parallel polygon...

Development of distributed generations’ technology, trends in the use of these sources to improve some of the problems such as high losses, low reliability, low power quality and high costs in distributed networks. Choose the correct location to install and proper capacity of these sources, such as important things that must be considered in their use. Since distribution networks are actu...

A delta-connected STATCOM with cascade multilevel full H-bridge (FHB) converter has been applied for phase balancing and power factor correction of unbalanced load in a three-phase, three-wire power distribution system. In this paper, a feedforward compensation formula is presented for the STATCOM by using the symmetrical components method to compensate unbalanced load. Computer simulation is p...
