Abstract:

More than one hundred countries are using wind energy due to their easy implementation, cheap energy, and high energy efficiency. Implementation of FACTS devices in Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) has been dramatically improved due to cooperative and accurate performance of FACTS devices. However, dealing with wind turbine faults promptly is crucial. Short-term and long-term faults may have excessive voltage changes and inconstant active and reactive power injection into transmission line. In this paper, robustness and flexibility of SSSC, STATCOM, and UPFC FACTS devices connecting to a 9 MW SCIG-based wind farm under different time-domain fault conditions is investigated. Variety of system scenarios under fault conditions are surveyed in order to find the best Fault Ride Through (FRT) scheme for the system. To carry out this study, same rating and capacity is considered for all three FACTS devices which are employed at the grid-connected point of WECS to mitigate FRT problem. Moreover, the best compromised control mode of FACTS devices is sought by a power flow analysis. Additionally, to obtain a more perceivable view over the technical issues related to the voltage sag support, performance of FACTS devices is analyzed and compared with each other through the paper and at the final stage. A complete digital simulation of the system is executed in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment and the results are presented to authenticate the performance of devices.

Short-Term and Long-Term Effects of Kinesio-Taping on Pain and Functional Stability in Swimmers With Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Purpose: Kinesio-taping (KT) is a new therapeutic approach for shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS), which is common in swimmers. This study was performed to investigate the short- and long-term effects of KT on shoulder pain and functional stability in swimmers with SIS. Methods: In this quasi-experimental study (randomized control trial), 28 swimmers with SIS were randomly allocated to the ta...

Long-term and Short-term Effects of Financial Intermediation on Economic Growth

Financial intermediation in Iran's banking system is negatively affected at least in two ways. First, there are many similarities between financial intermediation and usurious activities in the common interpretation of interest-free banking law. This encourages the banks to participate in various commercial activities. Second, the price setting policies of the central bank makes investment more...
