Dc-dc converters suitable for use in battery-powered electronic equipment with energy management are discussed. To realize the benefits of energy management, these converters must be capable of maintaining regulation of their output voltages at no load, while maintaining high efficiency. Variable frequency operation is shown to give an improvement in efficient operating range of approximately t...

Due to high dynamic response, current-controlled pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage source inverters (VSI) are widely used in high performance AC drive system for Industrial applications. The main objective of current controller is to force the load current vector to follow the reference trajectory in the three-phase load. There are three types of current controllers used in voltage source inv...

Abstract—this paper expounds a simulation model of a self-excited asynchronous generator (SEASG) feeding RL load in conjunction with an AC/DC/AC converter fed RLC series circuit connected at the point of common coupling (PCC).Simulation model of the proposed system have been developed by using Mat lab/Simulink. The result shows that the effect of RLC series circuit when operated at variable fre...

Experimental velocity measurements are conducted in an AC electrokinetic DNA concentrator. The DNA concentrator is based upon Wong et al. (Transducers 2003, Boston, pp 20–23, 2003a; Anal Chem 76(23):6908–6914, 2004)and consists of two concentric electrodes that generate AC electroosmotic flow to stir the fluid, and dielectrophoretic and electrophoretic force fields that trap DNA near the centre...

We demonstrate the control of droplet sizes by an ac voltage applied across microelectrodes patterned around a flow-focusing junction. The electrodes do not come in contact with the fluids to avoid electrochemical effects. We found several regimes of droplet production in electric fields, controlled by the connection of the chip, the conductivity of the dispersed phase and the frequency of the ...

AC-driven electrothermal flow is used to enhance the chaotic mixing through vortex flow in micro-fluidic systems by nearly an order of magnitude. Diffusion of heat and momentum can be increased because of the electrothermal force acting on the fluid through the applied AC electric field. Numerical simulation of vortex-assisted mixing in circular microchannel flow is investigated by solving a se...

Abstract: The aim of this letter is to present a universal power quality conditioning system (UPQS) named after unified power quality conditioner (UPQC), which is extended by adding a shunt active filter at the load side. Its main purpose...

Electric power systems usually involve sinusoidally varying (or nearly so) voltages and currents. That is, voltage and current are functions of time that are nearly pure sine waves at fixed frequency. In North America, most ships at sea and eastern Japan that frequency is 60 Hz. In most of the rest of the world it is 50 Hz. Normal power system operation is at this fixed frequency, which is why ...
