Introduction of Power Electronics to Electric Machines Lab

This paper presents a proposal for a new upgrade that will incorporate power electronics experiments in the electric machines lab at Oklahoma State University (both Stillwater and Tulsa campuses). We will introduce a general lab setup which includes digital data acquisition (DAQ) and virtual instrumentation. The application of 3 inverters will be discussed with our lab setup. The installation o...

Genetic Algorithms Application to Electric Power Systems

With the opening of the power industry to competition, the power system structure is changing. According to these changes, power system operation, planning, and control need modifications. In the past, utilities had to produce power to satisfy their customers with objective to minimize costs and all demand/reserve were met. However, it is not necessary in a restructured system. Under new struct...

Power Electronics Technology that Supports Smart Grid

† Fuji Electric Co., Ltd following a parallel off (2) Isolated operation detection function An isolated operation detection function is essential for connecting to a power system. Isolated operation is the state in which an isolated system that has been disconnected from the power system is supplied with electricity from the output of a distributed power source only. In the isolated operating s...
