Pumped storage units bring stability to the electrical power system, so they must remain connected to the grid even during grid faults. In this paper, the authors propose efficient and simple solutions for a doubly fed induction machine pumped storage (DFIMPS) system during grid faults. In case of balanced grid faults, a control reconfiguration strategy is introduced and a hardware solution is ...

In this paper, the principle of modularity is used to derive the different multilevel voltage and current source converter topologies by fuzzy logic controller. The paper is primarily focused on highpower applications and specifically on high-voltage dc systems. The derived converter cells are treated as building blocks and are contributing to the modularity of the system. The modular cascaded ...

Ultracapacitors (UCs), with their features of high power density and high current charge-discharge, have become the best choice for dynamic power compensation to improve the stability of microgrids and are increasingly being applied in microgrids. This paper presents the control of an energy storage system (ESS) based on ultracapacitors in the context of grid-connected microgrids. The ESS is co...

To achieve maximum possible power factor and by keeping total harmonic distortion (THD) within the acceptable limit. A new control algorithm of shunt active power filter under distorted grid voltage and unbalanced supply conditions is proposed. A new control algorithm renders the optimal compromise between harmonic free (HF) and unity power factor (UPF) by keeping the total harmonic distortion ...

background: in conventional radiation therapy, regarding normal tissue tolerance, the treatment of bulk tumors is one of the remaining challenges. grid radiation therapy (grt) is a technique to deliver high doses, approximately 15 – 20 gy per fraction, to several small volumes located in a large radiation field. this can be performed using a grid block. the current work has concentrated on the ...

Wind is one of the most abundant renewable sources of energy in nature. Wind energy can be harnessed by a wind energy conversion system (WECS) composed of a wind turbine, an electric generator, a power electronic converter and the corresponding control system. The most advanced generator type is perhaps the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG). As far as microgrid is concerned the load...

This paper focuses on improving the active and reactive power control of Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS) by employing the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) and controlling the frequency and voltage regulation instantaneously. The proposed power control scheme is composed of two control loops so that they are implemented and designed for active power control and controlling the reactive ...
