Abstract: Fast control DC-link voltage is the key to enhance Low-Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) for the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG). When grid voltage dips deeply, by the constraint of the capacity of the grid-side converter and reactive power support by the grid-code required, the active power capacity of the grid-side converter will be reduced. Therefore, it cannot stabilize th...

Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) have been promoted as a potential technology to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants by using electricity instead of petroleum, and byimproving electric system efficiency by providing vehicle-to-grid (V2G) services. We use an electric power system model to explicitly evaluate the change in generator dispatches resulting from PHEV dep...

In this paper we study adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) for elliptic and hyperbolic systems. We use the Asynchronous Fast Adaptive Composite Grid Method (AFACx) [4], a parallel algorithm based upon the of Fast Adaptive Composite Grid Method (FAC) [5] as a test case of an adaptive elliptic solver. For our hyperbolic system example we use TVD and EN0 schemes for solving the Euler and MHD equations ...

This paper proposes a new modified variant of Menezes and Vanstone elliptic curve cryptosystem. This new variant uses the same original Menezes and Vanstone elliptic curve cryptosystem but in an elegant way. The new variant uses a not only one elliptic curve but a number of curves. Each curve is chosen with its corresponding keys to constitute a separate cryptosystem. The message is then divide...

this paper presents a probabilistic optimal power flow (popf) algorithm considering different uncertainties in a smart grid. different uncertainties such as variation of nodal load, change in system configuration, measuring errors, forecasting errors, and etc. can be considered in the proposed algorithm. by increasing the penetration of the renewable energies in power systems, it is more essent...

An adaptive hybrid prismatic/tetrahedral grid generation method is described and applied to complex geometries for diverse industrial applications. The method consists of using a surface mesh generator to triangulate the geometry to be modeled. The volume mesh is then created using prismatic and tetrahedral elements. The prisms cover the region close to each body's surface for better resolution...

This research deals with investigations on the “Active Generator” under rotor speed variations and output frequency control. It runs at turbine speed and it is connected to a three phase electrical power grid which has its own frequency different from turbine frequency. In this regard the set composed of a four phase synchronous generator and a natural commutated matrix converter (NCMC) made wi...

Integrating wind power generation into small islands has been one of the demonstration projects in Okinawa Prefecture, Japan. Since such integration could deteriorate power quality, including frequency, in an island grid, a frequency-stabilizing system using flywheels has been integrated into a small island. In order to establish a proper frequency-stabilizing scheme for a small island, an accu...
