Fuel cells are new alternative energy resource that has a great promise for distributed generation and electric vehicle application. However, fuel cells have a slow response due to their slow internal electromechanical and thermodynamic response. To optimize the fuel cell system performance, a fuel cell DC-DC converter with an appropriate controller which can regulate the power flow and automat...

A detailed model of wind power station, including Double Fed Induction Generator, DFIG is presented in this paper. Two control mechanisms are included in the model. The inner control system uses stator flux oriented control for the rotor side converter and grid voltage vector control for the grid side converter. The outer control system is used for wind turbine pitch angle. PSCAD/EMTDC is us...

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...
