This paper presents a novel approach for power system dynamic voltage stability analysis based on the multi-input multi-output (MIMO) transfer function. The MIMO system is defined taking into account the critical nodal voltages as outputs and possible control variables as the input. Based on the modal analysis and singular value analysis, the dynamic voltage stability analysis is carried out. T...

The performance of direct torque controlled (DTC) interior permanent magnet (IPM) machines is poor at low speeds due to a few reasons, namely limited accuracy of stator voltage acquisition and the presence of offset and drift components in the acquired signals. Due to factors such as forward voltage drop across switching devices in the three phase inverter and dead-time of the devices, the volt...

This paper proposes a complete and effective smart over-voltage monitoring and identification system. In recent years, smart grids are of the greatest interest in power system research. One of the main features of smart grid is their self-healing, which can continuously carry out online self-evaluation, discover existing faults, and correct them immediately. The over-voltage smart monitoring-id...

This paper presents a method of enhancing the performance of a four-phase switched reluctance motor by using capacitors to produce additional supply voltage during the rise and fall periods of a motor phase current. The voltage rating of the inverter components increases and extra capacitor/diode combinations are needed. The operation and analysis of a series voltage boost circuit are detailed ...

The switching lag-time and the voltage drop across the power devices cause serious waveform distortions and fundamental voltage drop in pulse width-modulated inverter output. These phenomenons are conspicuous when both the output frequency and voltage are low. To estimate the output voltage from the PWM reference signal it is essential to take account of these imperfections and to correct them....

Induction generators are generally simulated by means of a well-known model described by Brereton et al. [1], based on the induction motor equations derived by Stanley [2]. In this model the possibility of opening the rotor circuit in order to inject a voltage source is not taken into account, although there are other models where it is dealt with [3]. This paper presents an alternative way of ...
