this paper deals with the design and evaluation of a robust controller for static var compensator (svc) in remote industrial power systems to enhance the voltage profile for three-phase single cage induction motor (scim) loads. the controller design is based on h∞ theory to deal with uncertainties arising in industrial network modelling. the performance of the h∞ controller has been evaluated e...

Linear AC power supplies can be replaced by their nonlinear switching counterparts due to the lower voltage drops and higher efficiency and power density of switching-mode inverters. Multilevel cascaded H-bridge (CHB) converters are the preferred inverter structure because of modular configuration, control, and protection. The output voltage quality in CHB converters depends on the number of ou...

pulse-width modulated (pwm) adjustable frequency drives (afds) are extensively used in industries for control of induction motors. it has led to significant advantages in terms of the performance, size, and efficiency but the output voltage waveform no longer remains sinusoidal. hence, overshoots, high rate of rise, harmonics and transients are observed in the voltage wave. they increase voltag...

allium cepa bulbs were germinated in pots for three days on treatment area on which 380 kv high voltage power lines are passing. ten bulbs were set up for each treatment area (0 m (meter), 10 m, 25 m, 50 m and 100+ m for control from power lines). triticum baeoticum boiss. subsp. baeoticum seeds were collected at same distance from power lines on planted field. ten seeds from each area were ger...

propose: standard electroporation and electrochemotherapy caused the endothe- lial cell permeability and reduction in tumor blood flow. the effects of low voltage and high frequency electroporation on the endothelial cells permeability and viability were expected. therefore, the propose of present study was to evaluate the effect of electroporation with bleomycin or alone on viability and perme...

Voltage control is one of the imperative issues in the smart distribution control system. While traditional distribution network is equipped with communication and monitoring equipment, the online voltage control can be perfectly achieved. With using these smart grid technologies, the distribution voltage control schemes should carry out intelligently and cover the undesirable effect of high pe...

In this paper, a new topology for cascaded multilevel inverter based on quasi-Z-source converter is proposed. In the proposed topology the magnitude of output DC voltage is not limited to the sum of magnitude of DC voltage sources. Moreover, the reliability of the circuit due to capability of short circuit by Z-source network is increased. The quasi-Z- source converter in different modes is ana...
