Droop Control of Distributed Electric Springs for Stabilizing Future Power Grid

Distributed power flow loss minimization control for future grid

In this paper, a novel decentralized algorithm is proposed to minimize power flow loss in a large-scale future grid connecting with many real-time distributed generation systems by which power flows bi-directionally. The DC-power loss at each link is defined as the product of resistance and the square of current that can be considered as a quadratic flow cost. We employ the notion of tie-sets t...

development and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle

in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

Electric Springs - A New Smart Grid Technology

Reflections on the Future Electric Power Grid Monitoring System

A shortcoming of the contemporary power grid monitoring is that the system does not know its own state. Instead of taking automatic note of energy-flow disruptions, one deals with haphazard telephone reports of "no light in our house". We propose a novel monitoring system that requires no restructuring of the power distribution network and can be applied both to the existing grids and the futur...

An Improved Droop Control Strategy for Low-Voltage Microgrids Based on Distributed Secondary Power Optimization Control

To achieve accurate reactive power sharing and voltage frequency and amplitude restoration in low-voltage microgrids, a control strategy combining an improved droop control with distributed secondary power optimization control is proposed. The active and reactive power that each distributed generator (DG) shares is calculated by extracting load information and utilizing a power sharing ratio, a...
