The most noticeable topic for electrical engineering is power quality in recent year. Power quality problem is an occurrence manifested as a nonstandard voltage, current or frequency. Utility distribution networks, sensitive industrial load and critical commercial operation suffer from various types of outages and service interruption can cost significant financial losses. One of the major prob...

Voltage sags caused by the short-circuit faults in transmission and distribution lines have become one of the most important power quality problems facing industrial customers and utilities. Voltage sags are normally described by characteristics of both magnitude and duration, but phaseangle jump should be taken into account in identifying sag phenomena and finding their solutions. In this pape...

Voltage sag is a serious power quality problem affecting domestic, industrial and commercial customers. Voltage sags may either decrease or increase in the magnitude of system voltage due to faults or change in loads. In this paper a switch mode AC BuckBoost regulator is proposed to maintain voltage across a medium size domestic appliance constant during long period of voltage deviation from th...

Total complaints related to voltage sags are about 80 % of all the complaints due to power quality transients. AC Contactors are designed to disconnect the load or circuit they control when the main power supply is intentionally interrupted. The sensitivity of AC coil contactors to the applied voltage is thus a potentially weak link in industrial processes. This paper shows the test results obt...

The Electrical power system contains a wide range of electrical and power electronics components in industrial and commercial applications. The power quality will be affected by various factors like ripples contamination, voltage sag and voltage swells due to the increase in loads of non-linear type like large power electronics converters such as IGBT and GTO, rectifiers, voltage and current gl...

Voltage Sag is one of the Power Quality problem and it become severe to industrial customers. Voltage sag causes miss operation to several sensitive equipments. This problem can be mitigating with the Dynamic Voltage Restorer. DVR is a solid state device which is connected in series between the source and load voltages. In this Dynamic Voltage Restorer is implemented using Capacitor Clamped Mul...

The renewable energy resources rule the world of power generation. Now-a-days wind farms are encouraged for up gradation of energy production, as the wind power is dirt free, readily available renewable alternative. The integration of wind farms with power grid leads to Power Quality (PQ) issues such as voltage sag, swell, flicker, harmonics etc. Most of the industrial and commercial loads are ...

production is termed as a complex process comprising of time and place factors interations. eficient managers may maximize their commercial profits through the recent mrjrture of the said factors. so plant location is an important ecrzptomk criterion and is applied as a guideline for the profit maximization. one of the salient point in market locatioa k the maximization of emency in national or...

Kent State had its beginning nearly a century ago. William S. Kent, a person of vision, donated 53 acres of farmland located on a hill overlooking a small town on the Cuyahoga River. He did so to establish a teacher education school in his community. When I visit various communities in my travels, I always ask, Why does this community or city exist? What is its reason for being? Kent exists bec...
