This paper presents the performance analysis of DFIG based off shore wind farm feeding to large power system through a hybrid HVDC link. The hybrid HVDC link consists of a line commutated converter based inverter and voltage source converter based rectifier. The active and reactive power of off shore station is controlled using voltage source converter based rectifier controller and the dc line...

Introduction Low dose rate brachytherapy sources have been widely used for interstitial implants in tumor sites, particularly in prostate. Dosimetric characteristics of a new IrSeed 125I brachytherapy source have been determined using the LiF thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD) chips. Materials and Methods Dose rate constant, radial dose function, and anisotropy function around the IrSeed 125I so...

The quality of the current waveform generated by a current controlled, voltage source shunt active power filter depends basically on three factors: (i) The reference signal being generated; (ii) the modulation method used and (iii) the switching frequency of the PWM modulator. A new adaptive hysteresis band modulation method is proposed. In this paper, the periodical sampling constant hysteresi...

Active filters provide significant harmonic and reactive power compensation and are thereby widely accepted as devices for power quality enhancement.. Many research works have been done to improve the dynamic performance of active filters. Current research work focuses on implementing a Minimally Switched Shunt Active Power filter for power quality enhancement. Minimally switched grid interacti...

The heat transfer for a non-Newtonian power-law fluid over a moving surface is investigated by applying a uniform suction/injection velocity profile. The flow is influenced by internal heat generation/absorption. The energy equation is solved at constant surface temperature condition. The Merk-Chao series is applied to obtain a set of ODEs instead of a complicated PDE. The converted ordinary diffe...

At present, the issue of low power factor and harmonic pollution in traditional charge-discharge system is serious, with the development of PWM rectifier technology, A novel main circuit topology of charge-discharge system with a three-phase voltage source PWM rectifier (VSR) and Bi-directional DC-DC converter are applied in this paper. It can be used as battery charging power supply, but also ...

The design of a power buffer to mitigate the negative impact of constant power loads on voltage stability as well as enhancing ride-through capability for the loads during upstream voltage disturbances is examined. The power buffer adjusts its front-end converter control so that the buffer-load combination would appear as a constant impedance load to the upstream supply system when depressed vo...
