<span lang="EN-US">This paper describes a new strategy for optimizing the switching angles of three-phase inverter in photovoltaic system. It presents non-traditional solutions to problem selective harmonic elimination (SHE) (VSI)-fed induction motor drives. The aforementioned was solved independently by using hybrid genetic algorithms (HGAs) and modified Newton–Raphson method. GAs can ob...

Asymmetrical structure is used to reduce the number of bridges and gate drive circuits and DC sources. This structure therefore provides the capability to produce higher voltages at higher speeds with low switching frequency which has inherent low switching losses and high converter efficiency. Newton Raphson (N-R) algorithm is investigated for the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) to calcul...

For medium-voltage power electronic applications, multilevel converters have become a popular option. While conventional twolevel converters utilize a direct series connection of switches to meet medium-voltage requirements, multilevel converters allow a higher voltage handling capability with reduced harmonic distortion and lower switching power losses. One of the most important requirements i...

The paper analyzes the effects of harmonics in wind turbines by presenting a useful technique to reduce the effects of harmonics. In this paper by using a harmonic model of wind turbine, and using a harmonic reduction technique, the power quality of network will be improved and the number of harmonics decrease. The technique is combination of wavelet analysis and active filters. The results sho...

We consider a family of damped quasi-Newton methods for solving unconstrained optimization problems. This family resembles that of Broyden with line searches, except that the change in gradients is replaced by a certain hybrid vector before updating the current Hessian approximation. This damped technique modifies the Hessian approximations so that they are maintained sufficiently positive defi...

This paper presents detailed modeling and simulation of a compensator for Load balancing and harmonics Compensation based on a five-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel voltage source inverter. This type of compensator, which is installed in parallel with the load, is usually referred to as the shunt active power filters (APF). Nowadays use of high voltage non-linear loads are widely used in indu...

Algebraic algorithms are powerful methods in solving the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) problem, which can find all exact solutions without requirements of choosing initial values. However, huge computational burden and long time limit capability algebraic algorithms.
