This work presents a back to back converter topology with the ability to connect two power systems of different voltages and frequencies for the exchange of power. By utilizing indirect AC to AC conversion decoupling is achieved between the power systems with one of three phase, two level voltage source converters performing the AC to DC conversion that maintains the required DC bus voltage level at unity power factor while the other converter operates in all four quadrants supplying and or consuming active and or reactive power with the other power system. The prototype implementation resides at University of Wisconsin Milwaukee's USR building microgrid test bed facility with an emphasis in the design to approach the requirements for harmonic control as recommended by IEEE 519 without power filtering AC capacitors.

In this paper, it is proposed a robust Second-Order Super-Twisting Sliding Mode Control for a Grid-connected inverter of a PV power plant. The proposed control strategy is able to maximize the energy extracted from the PV while regulating the DC-link voltage and achieving a power factor compensation and the reduction of currents harmonic distortion. Both in balanced or unbalanced condition, the grid is supplied by the PV plant with the desired active power and with the developed strategy, it is possible to use the inverter as a reactive power compensator. In order to prove the goodness of the proposed algorithm in terms of high efficiency and performance, some simulated and experimental results are carried out.

Management of Renewable Static Synchronous Generation units based on Synchronous Power Controller (RSSG-SPC), not only provides grid synchronization without using PLL and gives proper dynamic to output active power, moreover yields simple solution to overcome technical constraints on these units. Control of active power level injected to the grid is one of these key constraints which can overcome by an Active Power Limiter (APL). In this work, an APL designed based on the classic power equation is proposed for this kind of modern RSSG-SPCs. Primary Simulink analysis and real time test results confirm that suggested APL can control and limit both maximum and minimum level of output active power for several grid connection cases.

An asymmetric flying capacitor multilevel H-bridge inverter has proposed as a drive circuit for switched reluctance motors. The flying capacitor multilevel H-bridge inverter uses many power semiconductor devices. In addition, two capacitors are used per phase in the inverter, although only one capacitor is required at applying 5-level voltage to the stator windings in an SRM. Therefore, the authors have proposed a novel asymmetric flying capacitor multilevel H-bridge inverter. This paper demonstrates through experiments that the proposed inverter is possible to output the same voltage levels as the conventional circuit during excitation interval. Moreover, the vibration characteristics of a switched reluctance motor are evaluated when the current hysteresis control is applied with the proposed circuit.

This paper shows the design of a solar tree PV system for charging mobile devices on open urban areas. The solar unit tree was designed according to the environmental conditions of Medellin. Based on the electric consumption calculations of mobile devices, a 3.5 m height-tree was built. It has four leaves made of acrylic with solar panels on the top (SOW sized 54 × 83.2 cm). It illuminates with cold white lights and four smaller leaves with green illumination. The energy storage capacity is 180 Amp. It has 6 USB ports to connect mobile devices and two 110V-200 W electrical outlets to connect those devices to the electricity. Finally, the photovoltaic system's availability to satisfy the energetic requirements was verified. This research found that according to the established design variables, the system has a 3-hour autonomy on saturation and involves an energy saving of 876 Wh in a year of operation.

This paper presents an inductively coupled power transfer (ICPT) system that can transfer energy with high efficient from primary side to secondary side with variable load from 50 to 300 Ω via electromagnetic resonant coupling and output stable voltage. Main reasons for low efficiency for wide frequency deviation have been investigated. Typical compensation structures are compared in terms of efficiency, and load range. The series-parallel compensation framework is adopted to keep both side coils work in resonant condition and output maximum voltage. A practical ICPT prototype was conducted and the performance with different compensation networks were compared experimentally. Simulation and experimental results are illustrated to show the stability and effectiveness of this inductively coupled transfer system.

This paper presents analysis, design, and implementation of the high-frequency split-pi converter. Split-Pi converter has distinctive features like the symmetry of the input and the output components. Also, the continuity of the input and output currents makes this converter more desirable in applications like electric vehicles and power management. Split-pi converter is a bi-directional voltage-fed input voltage-fed output converter. As most of the renewable sources are naturally voltage sources, this converter is very suitable for interfacing such sources. With interleaved split-pi converter can have smooth input current and output currents. The converter is simulated, and details of voltage and current stresses of the components are illustrated. A 100 W hardware prototype is designed and implemented experimentally to verify the analysis and the design. The switches were implemented using GaN-based switches to allow operating at high frequency.

IEEE Std. 1584 specifies that capacitors must be part of the arc-flash study. The software tools generally adopted for analytical studies are not suitable for the calculation of the arc-fault incident energy in the presence of capacitor banks. The reason for this deficiency is that the model of the electrical network is only valid for the analysis of short circuit currents at the fundamental frequency. The frequency of the outburst current from a capacitor bank is determined by the size of the capacitors and the impedance of the conductors connecting the capacitor bank to the fault. Given the large power ratings of capacitor banks at the substation of solar and wind farms, it is important to develop a method to determine the maximum contribution from these capacitor banks to the arc-flash incident energy.

The increase in penetration levels of distributed generators like PV and Wind in a distribution system makes the IEEE 519 standard to be a vital aspect towards power quality. The network resonance has been described by IEEE 519 as a major contributor towards the harmonic distortion. Non-linear loads such as transformers, machines, silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs), solid state devices, power transistors, microprocessors and computers also contribute towards the injection of harmonics into a distribution system. The interaction between all kinds of elements of distribution systems and inverter based distributed generators like PV and Wind impacts the resonance modes to a definite extent. Based on the harmonic levels from the components in the system, the paper brings out a contribution in the form of a detuning methodology applied to a practical system to eliminate the harmonics. This would further serve as a recommendation for all the utility personnel and researchers. An exemplary North American system has been considered for the study towards detuning process. The phenomenon of resonance and harmonic issues has been inspired from a real situation due to capacitor switching towards power factor correction associated with an induction motor operating as an industrial load. Normally detuning is done on the capacitor banks when non-linear loads are active contributors to harmonics. Nowadays with more renewable penetration, this paper explores the observation during the interaction of renewables with the rest of the elements and an effective solution in the form of detuning to eliminate it is presented.

Supporting frequency inside of each generation area as well as keeping proper synchronism condition between interconnected areas are two main challenges for grid operators. In this paper, after analysis of structure of Renewable Static Synchronous Generation unit based on Synchronous Power Controller (RSSG-SPC) for holding and control of frequency, it is shown that how a renewable unit based on SPC can contribute to frequency support inside of generation areas and in this way it will support synchronism of neighbor areas. Results of mathematical analysis and state space modelling, as well as time domain investigation then real time test of two area system in presence of RSSG-SPC confirm that by reducing Rate of Change of Frequency (ROCOF), increasing level of Frequency Nadir (FN) and providing stiffer Center Of Inertia (COI) for whole of the grid, the RSSG-SPC not only supports frequency on the generation areas, furthermore it will cover synchronism of these interconnected areas.
