In this paper, a dynamic model of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is developed to improve the power transfer capability (PTC) through the transmission line. Improvement of the bus voltages profiles along with the reduction of total power losses is also intended with UPFC’s presence. The UPFC shunt and series controllers are developed based on Fuzzy Logic (FL) which has been designed as a s...

Transformers are the basic and valuable equipment of electricity network. Transformers correct function has important role in reliability of network .distribution transformers are designed for work at nominal frequency and full sinus current. Application of nonlinear loads in recent decades, such as power electronic loads, caused higher levels of harmonic. This kind of load can lead to creating...

This paper presents the results of magnetic loss tests on twisted and untwisted 37 multifilaments tapes exposed to an alternating field at power frequencies. The losses are measured using calorimetric methods, which are capable of measuring losses in short tapes with the accuracy of several microwatts per centimeter of tape. The losses of the tape due to the longitudinal field of the untwisted ...

in this paper, a combinational optimization algorithm is introduced to obtain the best size and location of static compensator (statcom) in power systems. its main contribution is considering contingency analysis where lines outages may lead to infeasible solutions especially at peak loads and it commonly can be vanished by load-shedding. the objective of the proposed algorithm is firstly to pr...

Today, the operation of sustainable power plants mainly relies on visualization of power production. Measurement data of such power plants are often discarded. We show the idle potential of such data by applying a state of the art algorithm to recognize malfunctions in a photovoltaic power plant. Up to now, these failures could only be found by manual inspection of the power plant every six wee...
