Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Fast Series Active Filter using Sliding Mode Control to Correct and Regulate Unbalance Voltage in Three-Phase SystemTheerayuth ChatchanayuenyongProblem statement: A Sliding Mode Controller (SMC) with fast reference voltage generation to correct and regulate unbalance voltage in three-phase system was proposed. Approach: The compensation algorithm was not based on three-symmetrical component decomposition so the controller can yield a fast response that was essential in such a critical real time control work. The reference voltages were fed to the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,221 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFuzzy Based Digital Automatic Voltage Regulator of a Synchronous Generator with Unbalanced LoadsA. Darabi, S.A. Soleamani, A. HassanniaVoltage stability and power quality of the electrical systems depend on proper operation of the Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR) of generators. Nowadays, design technology of the AVRs is being broadly improved. According to wide range operating conditions of the generators and loads, the fuzzy AVRs are going to be the modern type of regulators, particularly, for the genset alternators operating … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMultiresolution Analysis Based Effective Diagnosis of Induction MotorsHouda Ben Attia Sethom, Mediha Ajjabi GhedamsiProblem statement: Effective detection and localization of unbalance voltage supply affecting an induction motor may be compromised in presence of additionnal noise. Approach: In order to overcome the non possibility of the default detection and localization in presence of noise, the use of the discrete wavelet transform and especially the MultiResolution Analysis algorithm, to remove efficiently the noise associated to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 20 Feb 2012 · 8,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPower Quality Improvement Using a Sliding Mode Control of a Series Active FilterTheerayuth ChatchanayuenyongA sliding mode controller (SMC) for a three-phase series active filter was proposed to compensate voltage unbalances, suppress voltage sags and swells and hence improve the power quality of a three-phase ac system. The voltage unbalance compensation and regulation is only based on the positive sequence component decomposition of the supply voltage that is then adjusted to a rated value … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,584 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExponential-Hyperbolic Model for Actual Operating Conditions of Three Phase Arc FurnacesMahdi Banejad, Rahmat-Allah Hooshmand, Mahdi Torabian EsfahaniProblem statement: The Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) is a non-linear load and creates power quality related problem. Therefore, accurate modeling of the EAF is essential. Approach: In this study, an optimal model for EAF in time domain called exponential-hyperbolic, was proposed to describe the behavior of the EAF for all of the operating conditions and it does not need the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,247 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoltage Swells Improvement in Low Voltage Network Using Dynamic Voltage RestorerR. Omar, N.A. Rahim, A. AhmadProblem statement: Voltage disturbances are the most common power quality problem due to the increased use of a large numbers of sophisticated electronic equipment in industrial distribution system. The voltage disturbances such as voltage sags, swells, harmonics, unbalance and flickers. High quality in the power supply is needed, since failures due to such disturbances usually have a high impact on … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,376 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag Mitigation in a Refinery with Induction Motors LoadsTarek I. El-Shennawy, Abdel-Mon’em Moussa, Mahmoud A. El-Gammal, Amr Y. Abou-GhazalaProblem statement: ANRPC is a refinery based in Alexandria, Egypt. The plant was subjected to several shutdowns due to tripping of large induction motors, either by under voltage or by over current relays, sometimes by the mechanical protection. The main cause for such unplanned shutdowns was voltage sags. The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) has recently been introduced to protect the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,922 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Control Technique Applied in Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag MitigationRosli Omar, Nasrudin Abd Rahim, Marizan SulaimanThe Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) was a power electronics device that was able to compensate voltage sags on critical loads dynamically. The DVR consists of VSC, injection transformers, passive filters and energy storage (lead acid battery). By injecting an appropriate voltage, the DVR restores a voltage waveform and ensures constant load voltage. There were so many types of the control … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,136 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVoltage Sag Effects on the Process Continuity of a Refinery with Induction Motors LoadsTarek I. ElShennawy, Mahmoud A. El-Gammal, Amr Y. Abou-GhazalaProblem statement: Process continuity of industrial plants (like a refinery) is subjected to several shutdowns due to voltage sags causing large induction motors to trip, either by undervoltage or by overcurrent relays, sometimes by the mechanical protection. These unplanned shutdowns cost the plant tens of thousands of dollars per shutdown in addition to material damage costs, restart charges and any … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,120 accessesView PDFCite
