This paper presents a new control method for a three-phase four-wire Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) to deal with the problems of power quality under distortional and unbalanced load conditions. The proposed control approach is the combination of instantaneous power theory and Synchronous Reference Frame (SRF) theory which is optimized by using a self-tuning filter (STF) and without us...

This paper describes the mathematical modelling of selfexcited induction generators (SEIGs) with are improved electronic load controller (IELC) for microhydel applications supplying variety of loads. In small hydro plants, governor unit of turbine can be eliminated using IELC, which is simple and cost effective. The improved electronic load controller is a combination of a three-phase insulated...

The application of power semiconductor devices in the area of power electronics and power system are the key factors which kindle the power quality problems particularly the harmonics, burden of reactive power and neutral current due to unbalance. The above citied power quality problems are predominant due to wide usage of 1-φ / 3-φ , linear and nonlinear loads which are fed from three phase fo...

This paper presents an analysis of the three-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG) with staticcompensator {STATCOM) as a voltage regulator. Current controlled voltage source inverter (CC-VSI) is used as STATCOM, which provides fast dynamic response to maintain constant voltage at SEIG terminals during severe load perturbations and acts as a source and sink of reactive power. The perform...

A 3-dimensional model and analysis methodology is suggested for treating lifting tasks when unbalanced loads are involved. The paper describes the biomechanical equations that are coupled with the worker's posture geometry, to address a practical problem of non-symmetric lifting. The analysis has a dominant biomechanical modeling scope, as it contains a breakdown of the internal lifting forces ...

Abstract— The active power filters eliminates the harmonic distortion caused by non-linear loads and improves the filtering efficiency performance when compared with the passive filters. This paper inspects about the analysis and simulation of a three phase four wire shunt active power f ilter under unbalanced and distorted load conditions. Current harmonic compensation is achieved by the imple...

This paper provides a new approach for power flow and modeling analysis of three phase unbalanced radial distribution systems (URDS) using the simple forward/backward sweep-based algorithm. A three phase load flow solution is proposed considering voltage regulator and transformer with detailed load modeling, for the transformer modeling symmetrical components theory is used and zero sequence-vo...
