Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsANN Based DSPIC Controller for Reactive Power CompensationR.A. Jayabarathi, N.B. DevarajanIn India with a power shortage of about 10% of installed capacity, the transmission and distribution losses are relatively high. One of the reasons for the large loss is the excessive reactive loads on the primary distribution feeder. With the right amount of reactive power compensation, as system load varies, line losses can be considerably reduced. The application of Artificial … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,851 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDecentralized Controller Design for Static Synchronous Compensator Using Robust Quantitative Feedback Theory MethodSeyed Abbas Taher, Reza Hematti, Ali Abdolalipour, Majid NematiThe Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) provides shunt compensation in similar way to the Static VAR Compensator (SVC) but utilizes a voltage source converter rather than capacitors and reactor. In practice systems use simple Proportional-Integral (PI) controllers for control of STATCOM. However, since the PI control parameters were usually tuned based on classical or trial-and-error approaches, they were incapable of obtaining … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,459 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFast Power Loss Computation and Shunt Capacitor Insertion Using Fuzzy Logic TechniqueWagah F. Mohammad, Nabil Tawalbeh, Kasim M. Al-AubidyFast power loss computation was implemented using supervisory control and data acquisition system (SCADA) with personal computer. Logic Control Array (LCA) and EPROM circuits were used to implement SCADA system to facilitate the required measurements to obtain the daily load profile for residential and commercial customers. LCA, EPROM and PC were used to simplify the electronic circuits, reduce the cost … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,391 accessesView PDF Cite
