Abstract: One of the major power quality concerns in modern times is the problem of current harmonics. The current harmonics is caused due to the increase in non-linear loads which is largely dominated by power electronics devices. The Shunt active filtering is one of the best solutions for mitigating current harmonics. This paper describes a fuzzy logic controller based (FLC) based three Phase Shunt active Filter to achieve low current harmonic distortion (THD) and Reactive power compensation. The performance of fuzzy logic controller is analysed under both balanced sinusoidal and unbalanced sinusoidal source condition. The above controller serves the purpose of maintaining DC Capacitor Voltage constant. The proposed shunt active filter uses hysteresis current controller for current control of IGBT based PWM inverter. The simulation results of model in Simulink MATLAB reveals satisfying results.
Abstract: The paper presents a space-vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) inverter feeding a permanent-magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The SVPWM inverter enables to feed the motor with a higher voltage with low harmonic distortions than the conventional sinusoidal PWM inverter. The control strategy of the inverter is the voltage / frequency control method, which is based on the space-vector modulation technique. The proposed PMSM drive system involving the field-oriented control scheme not only decouples the torque and flux which provides faster response but also makes the control task easy. The performance of the proposed drive is simulated. The advantages of the proposed drive are confirmed by the simulation results.
Abstract: Doubly fed induction machines DFIM are used
mainly for wind energy conversion in MW power plants. This paper
presents a new strategy of field oriented control ,it is based on the
principle of a double flux orientation of stator and rotor at the same
time. Therefore, the orthogonality created between the two oriented
fluxes, which must be strictly observed, leads to generate a linear and
decoupled control with an optimal torque. The obtained simulation
results show the feasibility and the effectiveness of the suggested
method.
Abstract: This paper presents a comparative study on two most
popular control strategies for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor
(PMSM) drives: field-oriented control (FOC) and direct torque
control (DTC). The comparison is based on various criteria including
basic control characteristics, dynamic performance, and
implementation complexity. The study is done by simulation using
the Simulink Power System Blockset that allows a complete
representation of the power section (inverter and PMSM) and the
control system. The simulation and evaluation of both control
strategies are performed using actual parameters of Permanent
Magnet Synchronous Motor fed by an IGBT PWM inverter.
Abstract: Most high-performance ac drives utilize a current
controller. The controller switches a voltage source inverter (VSI)
such that the motor current follows a set of reference current
waveforms. Fixed-band hysteresis (FBH) current control has been
widely used for the PWM inverter. We want to apply the same
controller for the PWM AC chopper. The aims of the controller is to
optimize the harmonic content at both input and output sides, while
maintaining acceptable losses in the ac chopper and to control in
wide range the fundamental output voltage. Fixed band controller has
been simulated and analyzed for a single-phase AC chopper and are
easily extended to three-phase systems. Simulation confirmed the
advantages and the excellent performance of the modulation method
applied for the AC chopper.
