In this study, the aim is to evaluate three-phase (3?) AC/DC neutral point-clamped (NPC) power factor corrected (PFC) multilevel converter performance for electric vehicle (EV) fast chargers. Power factor correction for EV fast chargers is very important in terms of efficient power usage and charger compatibility with the grid. Multilevel converters improve charging efficiency, reduce voltage stresses on components, minimize electromagnetic interference, and support high power capabilities. For this reason, multilevel converters with the PFC feature contribute to the reliable and effective operation of the fast-charging infrastructure.

A Multifunctional Dstatcom For Power Quality Improvement, Mohammad Mahdianpoor, Arash Kiyoumarsi, Mohammad Ataei, Rahmat Allah Hooshmand, Houshang Karimi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is used for various purposes such as load balancing, harmonic rejection, and power factor correction (PFC) in power distribution networks. In unbalanced and polluted power systems, the classic definition of power factor cannot be used for PFC due to the existence of harmonics and negative sequence components in voltage and current waveforms. In this paper, PFC is performed using the IEEE power factor definition for harmonic and unbalanced environments. Moreover, the application of a proportional-resonant (PR) controller is proposed as an effective controller in the stationary frame for DSTATCOM performance improvement. The PR controller is …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In this article, an approach based on empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is suggested in order to calculate short-term flicker severity, Pst, in power systems. EMD is a new signal processing method used for the analysis of nonlinear and nonstationary signals. Pst is an important quantity in the electric power quality index defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission. In the suggested approach, the voltage signal is separated into intrinsic mode function components using EMD. These components are used for calculating the voltage flicker amplitude and frequency, and Pst is calculated as a result of the statistical evaluation of flicker amplitude. EMD …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Nowadays electric power quality problems such as flicker (voltage fluctuation) are major concerns of electric companies and industrial consumers. Identification of flicker sources is an important stage in the flicker reduction process. Flicker source can be modeled as a nonlinear load whose admittance is intermittent and time-variant. In the steady state, fluctuation of voltage amplitude is a function of the impedance of flicker sources. In this paper, after calculating the gradient of voltage amplitudes and constructing a Jacobian matrix, criteria for flicker source detection are proposed. Therefore, by measuring voltage and current of each load in the power system, the …

A New Method To Reduce The Adverse Effects Of Wind Power On Power Quality Using Reactive Power Compensating Capacitors, Seyed Navid Zahedi, Amir Amini, Hamid Falaghi
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The usage of distributed generation resources, particularly distributed generation with renewable sources, has increased to generate electrical power close to consumers. One of the factors that can reduce penetration of distributed generation resources is the limitation of power quality, such as harmonic distortions. Distributed generation sources, in addition to producing power, due to using of power electronic converters and changing the power flow, increase harmonic currents. On the other hand, local compensation of reactive power by parallel capacitor banks is one of the effective methods to reduce power system losses and harmonic distortions. Since the capacitor impedance varies at different …

Active Filter Solutions In Energy Systems, Sabi̇r Rüstemli̇, Mehmet Sai̇t Cengi̇z
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Recent developments in power electronics have increased the usage of nonlinear loads in energy systems. With increases in the usage of semiconductor-sourced nonlinear loads, the adverse effects of harmonics-sensitive loads (e.g., protection control circuits and circuit breakers) have also increased. Generally, the negative effects of harmonics in power systems include the following: increased power losses; motor, generator, and transformer overheating; faulty operation of measurement and protection systems; lifetime shortening of electrical components; and parallel and series resonance problems. Therefore, harmonics has become a serious problem in current power electronics systems. However, harmonics can be reduced, particularly through drainage using filters. …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
The recent advancement in electric energy storage technologies provides an opportunity of using energy storage systems to address the issues of grid-integrated wind energy conversion systems. This paper proposes a novel configuration of a unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) with a supercapacitor-based short-term energy storage system for managing wind power intermittency during grid faults. The STATCOM-like compensation device can compensate only current related issues. The dynamic voltage restorer can compensate voltage-related issues but it can contribute only 50{\%} voltage due to converter rating limitations. Moreover, real power handling capabilities of these devices are very poor. This new UPQC scheme can …

Image Pattern Recognition Technique For The Classification Of Multiple Power Quality Disturbances, Brahmadesam Viswanathan Krishna, Baskaran Kalaiperumal
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
In a practical power system, a power quality (PQ) event often consists of various types of disturbances occurring at the same time. However, most of the existing techniques are trained to classify single disturbances, and hence have very limited usage in classifying real-time data. This work proposes a novel technique to automatically detect and classify multiple disturbances that coexist in PQ monitoring data. The data obtained from PQ monitors are represented in the form of 2-dimensional (2D) images. This 2D data visualization has significant benefits, in that each type of disturbance produces a different type of edge in the image; …

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper presents a novel hybrid approach for detection of power quality (PQ) disturbances. The proposed hybrid algorithm is based on applications of principle component analysis, discrete wavelet transform, and fast Fourier transform on voltage and current waveforms. The proposed PQ monitoring (PQM) software uses 3-phase voltage and current signals in order to detect possible power disturbances such as voltage sag, flicker, harmonics, transients, DC component, and electromagnetic interference. The test results demonstrate the potential of the proposed hybrid technique for PQM andPQ assessment.

New Infratechnologies In The Deregulated Power Sector, Jordan Shikoski, Vladimir Katic, Risto Rechkoski
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
This paper discusses new infratechnologies in the deregulated power sector. Most measurement and standardization techniques can be viewed as infratechnology. Infratechnologies are technical tools, including the measurement of data, test methods, and practices and technique. Standardization requirements are related to the measurement requirement. Although the system operation and market transactions concern many import aspects, they are insupportable and often complementary. This distinction between the technical and market information is important because the characteristics of information needs and the impact on economic efficiency and clean power are generally different. The present paper focuses on infratechnologies that can potentially increase the benefits …
