Co-simulation is a versatile technique for splitting a large system model into multiple components that can then be solved in parallel on interconnected simulation platforms. This is most useful for interconnecting diverse Real-Time platforms (possibly from different vendors). A challenge emerges from the discrepancy of the time base between the systems. Even a minute difference in the frequencies of the forcing functions (i.e. stiff voltage and current sources in simulations of electrical systems) will cause spurious drifting and low frequency oscillations in the simulation results. A resolution is proposed in this paper based on a synchronization signal originating from one platform called the master and sent to the others. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated through implementation on actual hardware, namely an interconnection between RTDS™ and Typhoon HIL platforms.

Due to importance of control functions in high voltage substations as the nodes entering into the industrial power system, this paper investigate a comprehensive technique to quantitatively evaluate the reliability of automation system in substations. This approach is based on reduced event tree methodology. The method has been tested extensively by applying to different substation automation configurations. Furthermore, the model of functions which are involved in operation of breaker and disconnector are discussed and the proposed method is employed to quantitatively assess the effects of functional integration in the bay level. The results validate that well judged integration can lead to better reliability achievement and cost reduction.

The present study deals with the combined operation of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) with sensorless based control, which is common to wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) and an energy storage system (ESS). The scope of this paper is to present a coordinative control system to enhance the DFIG ability to recover from a fault condition. Despite the numerous benefits of the sensorless control, this approach suffers from high sensitivity to the dynamics effects. Herein, a three-phase short-circuit is considered as a significant and most common dynamic effect. The newly protection method - combined with the classical protection methods, i.e. crowbar, breakers - refers to a battery based energy storage system connected to the DC link of the back to back converter through a fuzzy-controlled bidirectional DC/DC converter. The aforementioned configuration aims to mitigate the DC bus voltage fluctuations during grid faults and subsequently to ensure the seamless operation of the overall system. The set-up was modeled via Matlab/Simulink and the simulation results obtained, validated the effectiveness of the proposed control system.

This paper presents a novel direct torque and flux control (DTFC) scheme of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drive. The conventional six-sector based DTFC scheme is modified with the proposed eighteen-sector based DTFC scheme in order to reduce the torque/flux ripple of the drive. Furthermore, the motor efficiency is optimized by reference flux estimation through an online loss minimization algorithm (LMA) so that the motor operates at minimum loss condition, which is not possible for conventional control where the reference flux remains constant. The complete drive is simulated using MATLAB/Simulink software and then a prototype is implemented using digital signal processor (DSP) board DS1104 for a laboratory 5-hp motor. Performance of the proposed DTFC scheme is investigated extensively at different operating conditions in both simulation and experiment. It is found from results that the proposed eighteen-sector based DTFC scheme incorporating LMA achieves the lowest possible torque ripples in steady state while maintaining high efficiency.

In underground mining industry, mineral transportation from lower levels to the surface is critical, thus demanding thorough equipment selection. The dc motor driven hoist dominated these applications, providing superior controllability. However, due to its increasing popularity, ac drive systems replaced dc application, including in mine hoisting. The high power ratings typical of these systems imply the use of medium voltage adjustable speed drive (MV-ASD), offering high power density, excellent efficiency and high reliability. This paper discusses two commonly used medium voltage topologies, namely the Three-Level Neutral-Point-Clamped and Active Neutral- Point-Clamped Voltage-Source Converter (3L-NPC and 3LANPC VSC). These topologies are compared to a recently proposed Fault-Tolerant realization of 3L-ANPC (FT-ANPC VSC). The hoist load cycle, which is severe in terms of thermal cycling profile, is used to evaluate the lifetime in power modules for all three topologies.

This paper analyzes the changes of spectral-derived characteristics of LED lamps during their operational life. The analysis is based upon a laboratory-controlled ageing experiment over 17 LED lamps samples. Each sample is put into its normal operating condition up to 20000 hours. As a comparison, lumen maintenance tests are also performed over another set of 9 lamps. In order to analyze the change in characteristics, the photometric and color quantities of the lamps are evaluated. The results show that the blue peak value and the re-emitted yellow component are decreasing independently over time. This implies that the ageing process induces a change of the color temperature and of the color rendering index of the output light. Four mathematical models are also proposed to investigate the relationship between color output and the operational time of the lamp. The selection of the best fitting is based upon the coefficients of determination from each model.

This paper proposes a control technique for improving power quality of a three-phase grid connected SECS (Solar Energy Conversion System) under grid voltage distortion and imbalances. SECS mainly extracts DC power from solar PV (Photovoltaic) array and converts it into AC power via a voltage source converter (VSC) and supplies it to grid and connected loads. This system functions on an incremental conductance (INC) driven MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) algorithm along with unit vectors estimation via positive sequence voltages extraction and a neural network (NN) based least mean sixth (LM-Sixth) current control technique. The system aims to eliminate power quality issues and provides current conditioning while operating in coherence with a weak grid such as Indian grid which has poor power supply quality and voltages distortion and imbalances. The system provides functions of both SECS as well as shunt active power filter (SAPF) depending on the availability of sunlight. For validation of this system, experimental tests are carried out on a developed laboratory prototype and results are recorded for supporting the same.

Due to the relatively low and unregulated output voltage of fuel cell (FC) stack, a dc-dc floating interleaved boost converter (FIBC) is used to interface FC stack and dc bus in FC systems. In order to keep a constant dc bus voltage of FC systems even when power switch open-circuit fault (OCF) occurs, the small signal ac model and proper control scheme for FIBC are well developed. Thus, when switch OCF occurs in one module, the FIBC switches from normal mode into degraded mode (constant output voltage is guaranteed) automatically. While, the evaluation results of FIBC in degraded mode indicate that the components such as power switch, capacitor and inductor should be oversized significantly. Therefore, a fault tolerant control scheme is designed alternatively. Finally, the validity of analytical evaluation results and the FTC scheme are demonstrated by Matlab/Simulink simulations.

The immense benefits of fire in road transport cannot be overemphasized. However more than two thousand vehicles are damaged by unwanted fire on a daily basis. On a global scale, incendiary losses to the automobile and insurance industries have ran into billions of dollars over the last decade. A not-so-distant contributory factor is the lack of a sophisticated fire safety system on the automobile. This has been addressed by designing and implementing fuzzy logic control system with feedback over an Arduino micro-controller system. The automatic system consisting of flame sensors, temperature sensors, smoke sensors and a re-engineered mobile carbon dioxide air-conditioning unit was tested on a medium sized physical car. Results show that the automobile fire detection and control system devoid of false alarms, detects and extinguishes fire under 20 seconds. An innovative, very promising solution module for hardware implementation in fire detection and control for automobiles has been developed by using new algorithms and fuzzy logic.

As an extreme contingency struck Kinmen island power system, it is very likely to cause blackouts. Although underfrequency protection scheme had been applied, some drawbacks of the scheme hinder Kinmen power system from avoiding blackouts. In the past one decade, several blackouts have occurred in Kinmen power system. To avoid blackouts, a special protection system (SPS) is summoned up. This paper describes the design and deployment of an SPS for Kinmen power system. The design depends upon Kinmen power system characteristics, and the deployment hinges upon supervisory control and data acquisition system (SCADA). Exquisite software is also developed to testify Kinmen system SPS. Operational record has been shown that the proposed SPS can save Kinmen power system from blackouts. Experience of design, implementation and operation of an SPS gained in this paper might interest protection engineers.
