this paper presents a new arc starter circuit that is usable in manual metal arc welding (mma) power supplies. the proposed circuit uses an auxiliary circuit and a series coupling transformer for adding high frequency spikes to output dc voltage during arc striking. the proposed circuit is usable in inverter based arc welding supplies and it could result in a decrease of weigh, volume and expen...

In this paper, a voltage-current mode controller is proposed to adjust both the input current and DC voltage of a boost-inverter in order to improve the performance of the photovoltaic (PV). The proposed system is based on fuzzy-making-decision predictive voltage-current controller (FPVCC). The simulation results show that in case of using the proposed FPVCC, the input current of a PV array is ...

in this paper, intelligent water drop algorithm (iwd) is used to analyze single overhead line connected to grid-grounded arrester. in this approach, at first norton’s equivalent circuit of the overhead line over lossy soil is computed by method of moments (mom) and then for the problem under consideration, a nonlinear equivalent circuit in the frequency domain is proposed. finally applying inte...

In this paper, a new voltage controlled first order all-pass filter is presented. The proposed circuit employs a single differential voltage dual-X second generation current conveyor (DV-DXCCII) and a grounded capacitor only. The proposed all-pass filter provides both inverting and non inverting voltage-mode outputs from the same configuration simultaneously without any matching condition. Non-...

voltage fluctuation is one of the important types of power quality aspects originated from heavy fluctuating loads. this phenomenon can influence the behavior of induction motors, produce excessive vibration and increase the ohmic losses. in this paper a simplified model to evaluate the electrical characteristics of three phase induction motors under voltage fluctuation conditions will be prese...

nowadays, high-voltage circuit breakers have reached such high short-circuit capabilities that testing them under the full rated voltage is generally not possible with direct tests, and they are conducted by using the synthetic test methods. although the phenomena associated with making tests is of particular importance especially in case of load break switches, but making tests are rather disr...

This paper proposes a pulsed power generator which consists of two types of switched-capacitor booster modules. A doubling mode module employed to elevate the input voltage to a specified level and, constant mode module is used to increase the elevated voltage into the finally intended bipolar output voltage. Also, the proposed modular structure does not utilize any switches across the load. Ot...
