today, with attention to increase in sensitive electrical equipments application in distribution networks and their susceptibility to the power quality deficiencies, the protection necessity of sensitive loads against undesirable effects of these disturbances are in focus. so, in this paper voltage sag deficiency and dynamic voltage restorer (dvr) would be introduced as the most prevalent power...

Solid state power converters are widely used in applications such as Adjustable speed drives (ASD), Static power supplies. Hence it affects the power quality (i.e.) related to non-standard voltage, current and frequency at the load side. In this paper an attempts has been to analyses the role of D-Statcom (Distribution static compensator) and located at load side in the distribution system, whi...

This paper proposes a new configuration for the Unified Power Quality Conditioner, which has a DC/DC converter with super-capacitors for energy storage. The proposed UPQC can compensate the reactive power, harmonic current, voltage sag and swell, voltage imbalance, and voltage interruption. The performance of the proposed system was analyzed through simulations with PSCAD/EMTDC software. The fe...

The hypothesis that cellular hypertrophy in congestive heart failure (CHF) modulates mechanosensitive (ie, swelling- or stretch-activated) anion channels was tested. Digital video microscopy and amphotericin-perforated-patch voltage clamp were used to measure cell volume and ion currents in ventricular myocytes isolated from normal dogs and dogs with rapid ventricular pacing-induced CHF. In nor...

The dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is used to regulate the voltage at the load terminals from various power quality problems like sag, swell, harmonics, unbalance etc., in supply voltage. This paper presents modelling aspects of several types of Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) working against various voltage sags by simulation in PSCAD/EMTDC. The reference signal for the series connected DVR is ...

OBJECTIVE Myocardial swelling occurs during endotoxic shock. The hypothesis that swelling-activated Cl- current (ICl,swell) activates during endotoxic shock was tested. METHODS Endotoxic shock was induced by intravenous lipopolysaccharides (10 mg/kg) in guinea pigs. The effects of ICl,swell blockers on the cardiac action potentials in papillary muscles and on the ICl,swell in single ventricul...

We used the patch-clamp technique to study the voltage-dependent properties of the swelling-activated Cl- current (ICl,swell) in BC3H1 myoblasts. This Cl- current is outwardly rectifying and exhibits time-dependent inactivation at positive potentials (potential for half-maximal inactivation of +75 mV). Single-channel Cl- currents with similar voltage-dependent characteristics could be measured ...
