Determination Of Harmonic Current Contributions Based On Robust State Estimation, Erhan Sezgi̇n, Murat Göl, Özgül Salor Jan 2018

Determination Of Harmonic Current Contributions Based On Robust State Estimation, Erhan Sezgi̇n, Murat Göl, Özgül Salor

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a state estimation based method is proposed to determine harmonic current contributions of plants supplied from a point of common coupling (PCC). This work mainly aims to reduce gross error of capacitive voltage transformer (CVT) measurements at harmonic frequencies using robust weighted least absolute value (WLAV) state estimation method, which provides the optimum state estimates for harmonic voltages in the presence of a redundant enough measurement set. Estimated harmonic voltages are then used to solve the harmonic current contribution problem based on superposition theorem. It has been shown that the proposed method can provide optimum harmonic estimates …


Field-Verified Integrated Eaf-Svc-Electrode Positioning Model Simulation And Anovel Hybrid Series Compensation Control For Eaf, Ahmed Hassan, Amr Abou-Ghazala, Ashraf Megahed Jan 2018

Field-Verified Integrated Eaf-Svc-Electrode Positioning Model Simulation And Anovel Hybrid Series Compensation Control For Eaf, Ahmed Hassan, Amr Abou-Ghazala, Ashraf Megahed

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, modeling and simulation of a typical steel-making network are realized using MATLAB Simulink environment and validated using trends collected from an actual steel plant. The models integrate different reactions between an electric arc furnace (EAF), a static Var compensator, and electrode positioning systems according to a previously introduced theory of operations. In addition, the conventional electrode positioning control performance is compared with the new hybrid series compensation control method to demonstrate the superiority of the new method regarding system response. With help of the proposed series compensation, the reference resistance value was restored 2.5 s faster than …


Supercapacitor Utilization For Power Smoothening And Stability Improvement Of Ahybrid Energy System In A Weak Grid Environment, Rahul Sharma, Sathans Suhag Jan 2018

Supercapacitor Utilization For Power Smoothening And Stability Improvement Of Ahybrid Energy System In A Weak Grid Environment, Rahul Sharma, Sathans Suhag

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, a novel control scheme based on the application of a supercapacitor (SC) is proposed for power smoothening and stability improvement of a hybrid energy system (HES) in weak grid conditions. The basic property of fast charging/discharging of the SC is utilized to design the proposed control. In weak grid conditions, the control structure is proposed for power smoothening and DC link voltage regulation with the help of the SC. Moreover, the stability is increased, ripples in voltage are reduced, there is fast dynamic response, and oscillations are damped out under different conditions. In conventional control, voltage controller …
