With the rapid use of power electronic converters which are considered as non-linear loads have problems of drawing non-sinusoidal currents and reactive power from source which in turn pollutes the power quality. This paper presents the power quality problems and methods for its correction where two control strategies (p q instantaneous power theory and d q synchronous reference frame theory) f...

Wireless power transfer is a promising technology to extend the lifetime of, and thus enhance the usability of, the energy-hungry battery-powered devices. It enables energy to be wirelessly transmitted from power chargers to energy receiving devices. Existing studies have mainly focused on maximizing network lifetime, optimizing charging efficiency, minimizing charging delay, etc. Different fro...

More and more functions are performed automatically with the use of various electrical appliances and sophisticated control systems in all spheres of human life. In this regard, the demand for reliable and quality power supply is increasing. To date, low power quality, in particular unacceptable voltage levels, is an important deterrent for introducing technologies of smart electricity consumer...

One of the main priorities of companies involved in supply chains is improving the quality of their products. However, as in other parts of supply chain management, decentralized decision-making in supply quality management is prevalent, which causes inefficiencies such as the well-known double marginalization phenomenon. Coordinating schemes, such as the revenue sharing contract, can contribut...

Wind power generation is grasping more attention nowadays because it offers the benefits of reduced cost, increased efficiency, less pollution and so on. But the known disadvantage is that the integration of wind farm with grid leads to many power quality problems such as voltage sag, swell, unbalance, harmonics, flickers etc. This paper concentrates mainly on diminution of source voltage sag a...

This paper analyses the quality of electricity in railway traction. Power quality characteristics have been measured as a case study in a traction sub-station in Tamil Nadu, India, where 1400 KVAR capacitor bank is installed. The actual data has been obtained through direct supply of traction load. Harmonics and various power quality problems are generated through the load of current. The emerg...

since it is essential to deliver smoothed sinusoidal voltage to the customers, diagnosing power quality (pq) events has played important role in power delivery and conversion. this diagnostic scheme should be accurate to classify pq events from other events in power system. also it should be fast enough to rapidly mitigate pq events. in this paper, an algorithm based on core vector machine (cvm...
