In this work the modulation of a new WE-type 13-level (WE-13) inverter based on selective harmonic elimination is presented. This single-phase inverter is capable of generating a 13-level boosted voltage waveform and belongs to asymmetrical multilevel inverters. It requires three voltage sources to attain these levels, out of which two sources can be capacitors. It requires only 11 IGBTs, which makes it one of a competitive 13-level topology. For its modulation selective harmonic elimination is employed. The angles of the switching are evaluated by employing metaheuristic Differential Evolution (DE) approach. The efficacy of the inverter and its modulation is proved by simulation and hardware in the loop emulation of the experimental setup in the Typhoon-HIL environment.

The parallel hybrid converter (PHC) is advantageous over the modular multilevel converter (MMC) in terms of energy storage requirement, number of switching devices, capacitors and switching losses. However, the PHC cannot be employed for static compensation (STATCOM) applications, owing to its nature of operation at a fixed modulation index (MI). The PHC utilizes harmonic injection methods (HIMs) to regulate its MI, within narrow limits. These harmonic voltages tend to be unequal, during unbalanced grid conditions (UGCs), and therefore enter the grid and distort it further. This paper proposes a new delta hybrid STATCOM (DH-SC) which inherits the advans power with the grid and hence the capacitor voltages belonging to different CLs divert from its reference value. However, the capacitor voltages get restored to its original value with the injection of unequal third harmonic voltages as mentioned above. Nonetheless, these unequal harmonic voltages enter into the grid and further degrade its power quality. This paper proposes a new delta hybrid STATCOM (DH-SC), which is capable of operating at any MI without requiring any THIMs, both during balanced and unbalanced grid conditions. The proposed DH-SC converter also inherits the advantages of PHC over MMC such as lower energy storage requirement, lesser number of capacitors and lesser switching loss.

Robustness, low cost and high torque density are the main characteristics of switched reluctance machines (SRM) that have made them promising for a variety of applications. In this paper a small diameter, long stack length (small aspect ratio) 6kW SRM is designed. In the first step, the dimensions of the studied SRM are derived based on conventional sizing equations. The significance of the rotor and stator pole arcs and also the effective torque zone as a constraint of the design are discussed. A finite-element study is carried out to validate the analytical model of the proposed SRM. The performance of the machine is comprehensively studied in different operating speeds. Simulation results demonstrate the capability of the machine for operation over a wide speed range.

This paper presents the design and thermal analysis of surface-mounted brushless motor (SMBLDC) for submersible pump applications. SMBLDC motor is used due to its high efficiency and low torque to weight ratio in comparison to conventional motors. For a submersible pump application, bore well size and motor diameter are the main constraints. Following the MNRE, GOI guidelines concerned with submersible pumps, all the machine parameters are numerically evaluated, and then its 2D FEA analysis is carried out in the ANSYS/Maxwell environment. The designed motor has obtained good flux concentration and low cogging torque. Then the thermal analysis is performed to examine the temperature rise in different parts of the motor. Thermal network modeling of the motor is proposed to carry out the steady-state and transient thermal analysis, which is performed in Motor-CAD software. Thermal runaway conditions are observed in the steady-state analysis with a severe increase in the temperature of windings and magnets. As submersible pumps are subjected to steady-state operations, a cooling arrangement is also proposed to keep the temperature rise within the acceptable range avoiding insulation failure or magnet losing its properties.

Modern day utilities extensively employ Distribution Automation (DA) during the planning phase of distribution networks. DA offers some of the major benefits such as superior reliability and remote accessibility of the network devices, thus speeding up automatic fault management process. However, the implementation of DA casts economic challenges. It incurs a huge investment which proves to be a major hindrance to its realization. To tackle it, this paper put forth a unique optimization model which aims to maximize the profit of distribution companies. The model proposed in this literature is formulated on cost-worth analysis approach. The strategy of the presented model is simultaneous and optimal placement of automation protective devices, particularly remote-controlled switches RCS, faulted circuit-indicators FCI, and reclosers R, at optimal locations of radial-distribution structures. The suggested model is examined on a practical medium voltage distribution network located in Iran. Genetic Algorithm (GA) is utilized to evaluate the proposed non-linear discrete optimization model. The test results substantiate the feasibility and applicability of the proposed model.

This paper presents a modified electricity tariff structure for the residential consumers of Maharashtra state in India. It integrates the features of existing slab-wise tariff, the time-of-day tariff and an optional provision to incorporate the use of renewable energy through net-metering. Presently, except in the state of Kerala, almost all states in India follow the slab-wise structure for residential consumers with some variations from one state to another. With continuously rising pattern in the standard of living of people, there is a need to create more awareness for use of electricity with responsibility towards oneself as well as towards the environment. The proposed model have multiple advantages like (1) benefits of existing slab-wise tariff, (2) flexibility to reduce the electricity bill while consuming the same amount of energy, (3) reduction in load on the grid during peak hours, thus minimizing the need to install new generation capacities for supplying peak load and (4) consequently reduction in fuel cost and carbon emission. The proposed model is designed and developed in MATLAB environment and an application is created to test the model with real-time data. The results are very encouraging.

Power factor correction (PFC) and the elimination of second harmonic ripple without using an electrolytic capacitor (EC) are the key factors for an AC-DC Light Emitting Diode (LED) driver. The ECs are used to diminish the pulsating current with double the supply frequency at the output which reduces the life span of the LED driver. In this paper, a Boost converter with a coupled Inductor Bi-directional converter (CIBDC) configuration is proposed. This configuration consists of a Boost PFC converter and CIBDC for replacing the short life span ECs with long life span film capacitors. Boost PFC is operated in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) to obtain unity power factor and CIBDC diverts the ac component of the Boost PFC converter and allows the dc component to the LED load. Also, by using coupled inductor zero voltage switching (ZVS) is achieved for the power switches to reduce the switching losses. Hence, the proposed configuration has advantages of near unity power factor, reduced switching losses for improved efficiency, elimination of ECs, and low output current ripple. A 100 W AC-DC LED driver configuration is validated using PSIM software.

Induction Motor is always focus of attention from its invention and considered as preferred choice, so treated as the workhorse of the industry. Its preference does not vanish even in the specialized and critical applications. Based on the application demand, its shape can be changed so as to rotary motion converted directly into linear motion without any additional mechanism. It increases efficiency and reliability of the system. Hence Rotary Induction Motor becomes Linear Induction Motor and Linear Induction Motor further modified to Tubular Linear Induction Motor. 6 kW, 3-phase, 415 V, 50 Hz Tubular Linear Induction Motor has been designed, analyzed and realized for continuous hammering application in this paper. Design equation for Tubular Linear Induction Motor has been derived from basic concept. Design Analysis has been carried out using ANSYS MAXWELL software. Simulated results for thrust, linear speed, and other parameters are presented and compared with the developed Motor.

This paper presents the design and analysis of a novel axial-flux synchronous reluctance motor (AFSynRM). A magnetic equivalent circuit (MEC) model for the proposed axial-flux machine is derived. The feasibility of fabrication is discussed. Finite-element analysis is applied to predict the performance of the proposed motor design. This paper provides a baseline study by comparing the performance of the proposed AFSynRM design with a similar rating radial-flux motor. The motors are designed to have similar volume and both have three rotor barriers. The operating parameters are obtained through static and dynamic FEA. The power, torque, power factor and efficiency of the motors are studied. The saturation and flux distribution in the motor structures are investigated.
