Reconfigurable Distribution Automation and Control Laboratory: Solar Microgrid Experiments

Siemens Smart Grid Innovation Contest Integrated Architecture and Programming Model for Distribution and Microgrid Automation

This idea proposes methodology known as integrated architecture for the design and deployment of distribution automation computing and communication infrastructure. By giving parallels to the ongoing efforts with the AUTOSAR standard in the automotive industry, we argue that in order to keep increasing software development costs low, the power systems industry has to go beyond current standards...

Microgrid Control in Distribution System Using Fuzzy Logic Technique

A micro grid consists of cluster of loads and distributed generators that operate as a single controllable system. As an integrated energy delivery system micro grid can operate in parallel with or isolated from the main power grid. The micro grid concept introduces the reduction of multiple reverse conversions in an individual AC or DC grid and also facilitates connections to variable renewabl...

Remote Experiments in Control Engineering Education Laboratory

This paper presents Automatic Control Engineering Laboratory (ACEL) WebLab, an underdeveloped, internet-based remote laboratory for control engineering education at the Faculty of Electronic Engineering in Niš. Up to now, the remote laboratory has integrated two physical systems (velocity servo system and magnetic levitation system) and has enabled some levels of measurement and control. To per...

Hardware Development of a Laboratory-Scale Microgrid Phase 2: Operation and Control of a Two-Inverter Microgrid

Design of A Virtual Laboratory for Automation Control

DESIGN OF A VIRTUAL LABORATORY FOR AUTOMATION CONTROL Zelin Zhu Old Dominion University, 2017 Director: Yuzhong Shen In the past, only students who studied on campus were able to access laboratory equipment in traditional lab courses; distance learning students, enrolled in online courses, were at a disadvantage for they could learn basic lab experiment principles but could never experience han...
