An Analysis of Photo-Voltaic Hosting Capacity in Finnish Low Voltage Distribution Networks

The ascending trend of photo-voltaic (PV) utilization on a domestic scale in Finland, calls for a technical aspects review of low voltage (LV) networks. This work investigates the technical factors that limit the PV hosting capacity, in realistic case networks, designed relative to different geographical areas of Finland. A Monte Carlo method based analysis was performed, in order to quantify t...

An Overview of Converters for Photo Voltaic

The photovoltaic (PV) systems exhibits nonlinear I-V characteristics and maximum power point varies with solar radiation or insolation and temperature. An intermediate pulse width modulation dc to dc converters can increase efficiency of the system by providing impedance matching between the PV system and the load and operating the PV cell arrays at their maximum power point using MPPT techniqu...

fault location in power distribution networks using matching algorithm

چکیده رساله/پایان نامه : تاکنون روش‏های متعددی در ارتباط با مکان یابی خطا در شبکه انتقال ارائه شده است. استفاده مستقیم از این روش‏ها در شبکه توزیع به دلایلی همچون وجود انشعاب‏های متعدد، غیر یکنواختی فیدرها (خطوط کابلی، خطوط هوایی، سطح مقطع متفاوت انشعاب ها و تنه اصلی فیدر)، نامتعادلی (عدم جابجا شدگی خطوط، بارهای تک‏فاز و سه فاز)، ثابت نبودن بار و اندازه گیری مقادیر ولتاژ و جریان فقط در ابتدای...

Stochastic Assessment of Voltage Sags in Distribution Networks

This paper compares fault position and Monte Carlo methods as the most common methods in stochastic assessment of voltage sags. To compare their abilities, symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults with different probability distribution of fault positions along the lines are applied in a test system. The voltage sag magnitude in different nodes of test system is calculated. The problem with the...
