This paper deals with the implementation of automatic power factor correction system using solid state switched capacitors and Arduino UNO controller. The main objectives are to reduce the line loss, to reduce reactive power flows on the line and to avoid switching surge overvoltage due to switching on/off the capacitors. This paper describes the design and simulation of power factor correction...

Inspired by Nature's catalyst, a nano-size layered manganese-calcium oxide showed a low overvoltage for water oxidation in acidic solutions, which is comparable to platinum.

After a brief historical introduction to the hosting-capacity approach, the hosting capacity is presented in this paper as a tool for distribution-system planning under uncertainty. This tool is illustrated by evaluating the readiness of two low-voltage networks for increasing amounts of customers with PV panels or with EV chargers. Both undervoltage and overvoltage are considered in the studie...

A water vapor electrolysis cell utilizing sulfuric acid as the electrolyte has been shown to be capable of operating efficiently on the typical humidity of cabin air. Concentrated sulfuric acid can absorb enough water from a 50% relative humidity air stream at 75°F to permit an electrolysis cell to c&rate at a current density as high as 150 mA/cm2. . Sulfuric acid was examined for physical prop...

The widespread integration of photovoltaic (PV) units may result in a number of operational issues for the utility distribution system. The advances in smart-grid technologies with better communication and control capabilities may help to mitigate these challenges. The objective of this paper is to evaluate multiple voltage control methods and compare their effectiveness in mitigating the impac...

Abstract In order to limit the temporary overvoltage, method of series current limiting reactor in line is often used power grid overvoltage. The parameters reactance directly affect level 50Hz installation a changes positive and zero sequence impedance line, which has an impact on overvoltage line. Installing 500 kV Line’s studied by using electromagnetic transient calculation software EMTP. s...
