Usage of flywheel energy storage system (FESS) is a common method for frequency regulation due to its high power injection capacity and long life time. FESS is equipped by two back-to-back inverters including grid-side inverter and machine-side inverter. In conventional method, the machine-side inverter sets the active power and machine flux while grid-side inverter sets the reactive power and ...

In this paper, a three-level integrated ac–dc converter with power factor correction is presented. The proposed converter integrates the operation of the boost power factor correction and the three-level dc–dc converter. The converter is made to operate with two independent controllers—an input controller that performs power factor correction and regulates the dc bus and an output controller th...

The topology and management of a sustainable dual-bus, AC DC, microgrid designed to operate connected weak grid is presented. AC+DC hybrid microgrids are robust cost-competitive solution for poorly areas, as can be found in rural or island electrification. versatile proposed this work developed around wind turbine based on particular induction generator with double stator winding squirrel cage ...

A shared-bus shared-memory multiprocessor based on multithreaded CPUs is evaluated against different solutions for cache and coherence protocols. Multithreaded architectures have been intensively studied for DSM multiprocessors, where memory latencies are a major factor in limiting performance. They can be interesting also for bus-based multiprocessors, since processor speed are increasing at a...

This study discusses the power control strategy in a standalone photovoltaic-battery hybrid system. The life-time of battery will be shorter if is often charged with high current and exceeds its State-of-Charge (SoC). Therefore, method needed to flow on DC bus charging as well SoC so that has long life-time. proposed system uses two dc-dc converters connect photovoltaic (PV) lead-acid batteries...

In this article our objective is to obtain steady state characteristics of shunt, series, and separately excited DC motors coupled with a centrifugal water pump supplied through a step-up, step-down, and cuk converter from photovoltaic generator. We assume that there are no storage batteries and, of course, the system must operate on maximum utilization i.e. maximum water must be pumped. It is ...

This paper presents a small-scale prototype of a wind-photovoltaic hybrid system, having batteries as energy storage components. All devices are connected to a common dc-bus using appropriate power converters. The photovoltaic modules are connected through a dc-dc buck converter using Perturb and Observe Maximum Power Point Tracking control. The permanent magnet synchronous generator (wind gene...

GDDR5 and DDR4 memories use data bus inversion (DBI) coding to reduce termination power and decrease the number of output transitions. Two main strategies exist for encoding data using DBI: DBI DC minimizes the number of outputs transmitting a zero, while DBI AC minimizes the number of signal transitions. We show that neither of these strategies is optimal and reduction of interface power of up...
