This paper proposes a new method for loss allocation in radial distribution networks (DNs) considering different models of distributed generation (DG) and load in context of a deregulated environment. In the proposed method, a direct relation between real/reactive power flow in a branch and its losses has been developed without taking any assumption and approximation. Suitable expressions/relat...

Generally during recent decades due to development of power systems, the methods for delivering electrical energy to consumers, and because of voltage variations is a very important problem ,the power plants follow this criteria. The good solution for improving transfer and distribution of electrical power the majority of consumers prefer to use energy near the loads .So small units that are co...

A dual stator winding squirrel-cage induction motor (DSWIM) is a brushless single-frame induction motor that contains a stator with two isolated three-phase windings wound with dissimilar numbers of poles. Each stator winding is fed by an independent three-phase inverter. The appropriate efficiency of this motor is obtained when the ratio of two frequencies feeding the machine is equal to the r...

in this paper, simultaneous placement of distributed generation, capacitor bank and protective devices are utilized to improve the efficiency of the distribution network. the objectives of the problem are reduction of active and reactive power losses, improvement of voltage profile and reliability indices and increasing distribution companies’ profit. the combination of firefly algorithm, parti...

Increased electric energy consumption in recent years, associated economic problems, reduced reliability and increased power losses in electric networks. One of the main solutions in smart grids to overcome the mentioned problems is demand response programs. In demand response programs, operators apply time-varying tariffs to consumers, and convince them to change their consumption pattern. Amo...

This paper describes a four-leg interleaved DC-DC boost converter built on the basis of Silicon Carbide (SiC) devices (Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors—MOSFETs and Schottky diodes) and improved, low-capacitive magnetic components. A combination of wide-bandgap semiconductors capable of operating at elevated switching frequencies and an interleaving technique brings substantial...
