The objective of this paper is to propose a multi-input power converter for the hybrid system that interfaces two unidirectional ports for input power sources, a bidirectional port for a storage element, and a port for output load in a unified structure. The two input ports for simultaneously converting two different input power sources with low voltages to a stable output power with a high voltage. According to various situations, the operational states of the proposed converter can be divided into three states based on battery utilization. In order to ensure that the system operates with high efficiency, this paper proposes a power management control scheme, which controls the bidirectional converter operating under boost mode according to the operation condition of the PV/Wind, so that the battery can be charged or discharged. The integration of the hybrid renewable power system is implemented and simulated using MATLAB/SIMULINK.

Nowadays, the power transmission network is expanding and is getting more complicated day by day. The problems of uncontrolled loop flows, overloading, excess of short circuit current levels and system instabilities are causes of concern for a power engineer. These serious problems have necessitated new transmission technologies to be adopted such as FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission System) devices which make electrical energy transmission more efficient and reliable. Among the FACTS controllers the TCSC (Thyristor Controlled Series Compensators) plays a major role. TCSC is mainly used to enhance line loadability and damp inter-area oscillations for smooth synchronous operation of the interconnected regions. Thus TCSC is used to enhance the effective performance of the system. The main objective of this paper is to examine the improvement of power system stability by introducing TCSC in the power system model through the inspection of their waveforms, where the design and simulation is done by using PSCAD (Power System Computer Aided Design).

Lofty power and elevated step-up isolated dc-dc converters have been widely employed in the emerald power systems and especially for electric traction drives. In electronics engineering, a DC to DC converter is a circuit, which converts a source of direct current from one voltage to another. It is a class of power converter. In many DC-DC applications, output isolation may need to be implemented depending on the type of application to meet safety standards to provide impedance matching. This galvanic isolation is required to attain a flexible system reconfiguration. Active lamp boost converter with coupled-inductors is proposed for high step-up electric traction applications. The primary-parallel-secondary-series structure is employed in this project to knob the huge input current, maintain the high output voltage and enlarge the voltage gain. Purpose of the coupled-inductors is to reduce the voltage gain addition and lesser concern in switching. Clamp circuit is used to re circulate the energy. The voltage strain in rectifier is minimized and reverse-recovery problem is eliminated. The hardware unit utilizes embedded technology using PIC microcontroller 16F84A to give gate pulses to the MOSFET converter switches. In this proposed converter only three MOSFET's are used which reduces the number of devices and makes circuit simple in construction. Efficiency, size, and cost are the primary advantages of the proposed isolated ZVT boost converter when compared to other existing converters. Isolated ZVT boost converter employing series-parallel arrangement will have an efficiency of about 88-94%, whereas existing converters are usually 80 to 85% efficient. In the present work, a novel ZVT boost converter for electric traction drive application is developed has been designed in MATLAB/SIMULINK software packages. The simulation result for a 40-V-to-600-V converter is simulated in open circuit and closed loop system. Simulated disturbance is applied at a time period of 0.7 micro second and noted that the output voltage is maintained constant always. The hardware unit and experimental results of a 15V to 85-V ZVT converter is implemented and the results are verified.

A multilevel inverter is a power electronic device that is used for high voltage and high power applications and has many advantages like, low switching stress, low total harmonic distortion (THD). Hence, the size and bulkiness of passive filters can be reduced. This paper proposes two new topologies of a 7-level cascaded multilevel inverter with reduced number of switches than that of conventional type which has 12 switches. The topologies consist of circuits with 9 switches and 7 switches for the same 7-level output. Therefore with less number of switches, there will be a reduction in gate drive circuitry and also very few switches will be conducting for specific intervals of time. The SPWM technique is implemented using multicarrier wave signals. Level Shifted triangular waves are used in comparison with sinusoidal reference to generate Sine PWM switching sequence. The number of level shifted triangular waves depends on the number of levels in the output. i.e. for n levels, n-1 number of carrier waves. This paper uses 1 KHz SPWM pulses with a modulation index of 0.8. The circuits are simulated using SPWM technique and the effect of the harmonic spectrum is analyzed. A comparison is made for the topologies with 9 switches and 7 switches and an effective reduction in THD has been observed for the circuits with less number of switches. The THD for 9 switches is 14% and the THD for 7 switches is 12.5%. The circuits are modeled and simulated with the help of MATLAB/SIMULINK.

PV connected to the single phase grid is discussed in this review. Also the types of multilevel inverter is discussed. Normally the line commutated inverter has square shaped waveform of line current. So it has large amount of harmonic and produces excess of heat which causes damage to the winding of transformer. Multilevel inverter gives the output current waveform which is nearly sinusoidal in nature. This line current has fewer harmonics as compared to line commutated inverter. Basically multilevel inverter produces the output by synthesis of DC voltages i.e. by increasing of DC voltages, the levels of the output increases. Multilevel inverter also used for electric drives applications for same reason i.e. harmonic reduction. The simulation can be done by MATLAB/SIMULINK. In simulation model we can use DC source instead of PV module.

Now a day's Low Tension (L.T.) & High Tension (H.T.) capacitors are manufactured by using All Polypropylene Film (APP) and L.T. capacitors. All Polypropylene Film has very less dielectric losses, long life, high voltage stress. So it is widely used in H.T. as well as L.T. capacitor. However, the cost of L.T. capacitor is increased due to use of APP in L.T. capacitor. As more costing, the use of APP in L.T. capacitor is limited. The main disadvantage of APP is non-self-healing property. On the other hand, Metallized Polypropylene Film has self-healing property. There are many advantages due to use of MPP film in capacitor - the size of capacitor is reduced, losses are less and cost of capacitor is decreased. So, it is an optimal technique to use MPP in manufacturing of H. T. capacitors.

This paper presents an efficient method to Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) problem using a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) technique. The practical ELD problems have nonsmooth cost functions with equality and inequality constraints. It is difficult to find the optimum solution using mathematical approaches. In this paper Constriction Coefficient PSO(CPSO) is used to solve ELD problem with valve point loading effects. The results of this method are compared with Standard PSO (SPSO) and inertia based PSO (IPSO) method. The results of the proposed method are illustrated with 3 and 6 generator unit systems.
