Received Jun 19, 2017 Revised Aug 15, 2017 Accepted Sep 7, 2017 This manuscript presents a feeder reconfiguration in primary distribution networks with an objective of minimizing the real power loss or maximization of power loss reduction. An optimal switching for the network reconfiguration problem is introduced in this article based on step by step switching and simultaneous switching. This p...

The peak power problem in multicarrier waveforms is well-known and imposes substantial limitations on wireless communications. As the quest for investigation of enabling technologies for the next generation of wireless communication systems 5G is at its peak, the problem is re-emerging in a much broader range of technologies. However, despite numerous publications on the topic, there is no well...

Distributed generators are beneficial in reducing the losses effectively compared to other methods of loss reduction. In this paper optimal DG unit placement using fuzzy logic is discussed. The optimal size of the DG unit is calculated analytically using approximate reasoning suitable nodes are determined for DG unit placement. Voltage and power loss reduction indices of distribution system nod...

Mitsubishi Electric has developed a 1.7 kV hybrid SiC power module consisting of 6th generation Si-IGBT and SiC Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD). Adopting SiC-SBD enables a significant power loss reduction during the diode turn-off and IGBT turn-on. And adopting of 6th generation IGBT enables the reduction of the IGBT turn-off loss. By using the newly developed chip set, high temperature enduring g...

Harmonics have become an important issue in modern power systems. The widespread penetration of non-linear loads to emerging power systems has turned power quality analysis into an important operation issue under both steady state and transient conditions. This paper employs a Dynamic Harmonic Domain (DHD) based framework for dynamic harmonic analysis of VSC-HVDC systems. These systems are wide...

Single-phase squirrel cage and three-phase induction electromotors are the most popular electromotors used in industry from long ago. When an induction motor starts with direct connection method, it takes a lot of current from the power supply (several times the nominal current); so, several methods have been devised to start such electromotors. These methods either reduce the voltage of the st...
