TCSC has been proposed to enhance the voltage stability by changing the reactive power distribution in the power system. Authors have discussed the effect of TCSC on steady state voltage stability and small-signal voltage stability. This paper discusses the TCSC’s enhancement on transient voltage stability. A TCSC model that is suitable for transient voltage stability analysis is proposed. This...

This paper treats an induction machine as a wind power generator, and voltage deviation due to wind velocity change is simulated by a dynamic stability calculation program. The ac bus voltage connected to the wind generator highly depends on the wind velocity variation. Then author actually measured the wind velocity which is used for the simulation. This paper shows 1 second sampling data of t...

Unified power flow controller (UPFC) is one of the most important flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) devices in power systems. It has many applications such as stability enhancement, power flow control, voltage support, etc. In this paper UPFC is used in order to control voltage. In this scope, UPFC is installed on a specified bus and the voltage of the proposed bus is controlled by using...

Hysteresis motors are self starting brushless synchronous motors which are being used widely due to their interesting features. Accurate modeling of the motors is crucial to successful investigating the dynamic performance of them. The hysteresis loops of the material used in the rotor and their influences on the parameters of the equivalent circuit are necessary to be taken into considerat...

The static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is one type of FACTS devices which resembles in many respects a rotating synchronous condenser used for voltage control and reactive power compensation. The STATCOM can increase transmission capacity, damping low frequency oscillation, and improving voltage stability. This paper presents a control block diagram of STATCOM for the voltage stability im...

Rapid prototyping (RP) methods are used for production easily and quickly of a scale model of a physical part or assembly. Gas metal arc welding (GMAW) is a widespread process used for rapid prototyping of metallic parts. In this process, in order to obtain a desired welding geometry, it is very important to predict the weld bead geometry based on the input process parameters, which are voltage...

The microgrid (MG) is a popular concept to handle the high penetration of distributed energy resources, such as renewable and storage systems, into electric grids. However, integration inverter-interfaced generation units (IIDGs) imposes control protection challenges. Fault identification, classification isolation are major concerns with IIDGs-based active MGs where IIDGs reveal arbitrary imped...

In this research paper, the performance of an air-cored axial flux permanent magnet synchronous generator is evaluated for low speed, direct drive applications using 3D finite element modeling and experimental tests. The structure of the considered machine consists of double rotor and coreless stator, which results in the absence of core losses, reduction of stator weight and elimination of cog...
