The paper presents a super-twisting sliding mode (STSM) regulator with neural networks (NN) of direct power command (DPC) for controlling the active/reactive power of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) using a two-level space vector pulse width modulation (2L-SVPWM). Traditional DPC strategy with proportional-integral (PI) controllers (DPC-PI) has significantly more active/reactive power r...

India has been phasing dearth of electrical power. The distribution reforms are identified as the base area to bring about the efficiency and to improve financial health of the power sector. The factors entitled for power losses can be squarely devoured by amorphous magnetic alloy core transformer which proves beneficial by increasing advantage of fundamental frequency, statistically substantia...

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...

The operation of wind energy conversion systems mainly deals with variable and unpredictable wind regimes resulting in variable power efficiency. In addition, nowadays with the presence of high penetration level of wind farms integrated to power systems, stability and power quality problems might be addressed, when a disturbance event occurs. These challenges are worsened with significant degre...

Complies with the regulations of the University and meets the accepted standards with respect to originality and quality. Batteries, ultra capacitors (UCs), and fuel cells (FCs) are widely being proposed for electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (EVs/PHEVs) as energy sources. The increasing popularity of EVs and PHEVs can be attributed to the savings in fuel costs, compared to conventio...

In this paper, a novel and simple control strategy, based on state feedback method is suggested to control the power injection system (PIS). The considered PIS is composed of, a DC voltage source, a voltage source inverter (VSI) and a L-C-L filter. The DC source includes the battery source with boosted voltage. The battery can be charged with photovoltaic cells. Since, the grid voltage acts as ...

in this paper, plug-in fuel cell electric vehicle (pfcev) is considered with dual power sources including fuel cell (fc) and battery energy storage. in order to respond to a transient power demand, usually supercapacitor energy storage device is combined with fuel cell to create a hybrid system with high energy density of fuel cell and the high power density of battery. in order to simulate the...

With the accelerating transportation electrification, increasing numbers of electric vehicles (EVs) are connected to distribution networks via vehicle charging stations (EVCSs). Due uncertain behaviors EV users, concentrated high-power during peak hours can result in significant undervoltage issues, affecting regular operation and having detrimental effects on charging. Conventional scheduling ...
