in this article, a multi-objective function for placement of distributed generation (dg) and capacitors with thetap setting of under load tap changer (ultc) transformer is introduced. most of the recent articles have paidless attention to dg, capacitor placement and ultc effects in the distribution network simultaneously. insimulations, a comparison between different modes was carried out with,...

This paper has developed a novel multiobjective function for optimal sizing and sitting ofDistributed Generation (DG) units and capacitor banks in simultaneous mode to improve reliabilityand reduce energy losses. The proposed function consists of four objectives: Cost of Energy NotSupplied (CENS), System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI), costs of energy loss andinvestment. A novel st...

This paper focused on the development of capacitor voltage balancing methods in a flying capacitor multilevel inverter (FCMLI) fed induction motor drive. For improving the performance of flying capacitor multilevel inverter, a switching pattern selection scheme is implemented. The proposed method has been designed a seven-level flying capacitor multilevel inverter by using sinusoidal pulse widt...

This paper shows that a highly deformable capacitor made of a soft dielectric and two conformal electrodes can switch between two states discontinuously, by a first-order transition, as the total charge varies gradually. When the total charge is small, it spreads evenly over the area of the capacitor, and the capacitor deforms homogeneously. When the total charge is large, it localizes in a sma...

The problem of capacitor allocation for loss reduction in electric distribution systems has been extensively researched over the past several decades. This paper describes the evolution of the research and provides an evaluation of the practicality and accuracy of the capacitor placement algorithms in the literature. The intent of this paper is not to provide a complete survey of all the litera...

This paper focuses on the development of capacitor voltage balancing methods in a flying capacitor multilevel inverter (FCMLI) fed induction motor drive. For improve the performance of flying capacitor multilevel inverter to implement a switching pattern selection scheme. This reduces capacitor voltage fluctuation without using voltage feedback and RLC Filter circuits connected in parallel with...

A method to eliminate the effect of capacitor mismatch for a switched-capacitor DAC is described. The method consists of two elements. The first element is the use of a compensating switching algorithm, which can eliminate the effect of capacitor mismatch only for some digital input values. The second element is that each digital word is written as the sum of two other words for which the capac...

BACKGROUND Phase-2 voltage and maximum pulse width are dependent on phase-1 pulse characteristics in a single-capacitor biphasic waveform. The use of 2 separate output capacitors avoids these limitations and may allow waveforms with lower defibrillation thresholds. A previous report also suggested that the optimal tilt may be >70%. This study was designed to determine an optimal biphasic wavefo...

In this paper we describe an apparent paradox concerning a moving plate capacitor driven by thermal noise from a resistor. The plates are attracted together, but a demon restores the plates of the capacitor to their original position when the voltage across the capacitor is small-hence only small forces are present for the demon to work against. The demon has to work harder than this to avoid t...

A novel two-split capacitor (T-SC) array structure for Successive Approximation Register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is proposed. When used as digital –to-analog converter (DAC), this circuit reduced the chip area by 27.7% in comparing with the conventional Split Capacitor (SC) at resolution=14. The area reduction effect can be more significant with the increasing resolution of ADC....
