The proposed method utilizes the winding inductance of the induction motor for pre-charging the SC while keeping the current within the limit. Moreover, a low value inductance is inserted in the SC circuit to add a soft-switching capability to the existing SC-based three-phase inverter topology.

A single voltage source converter (VSC) is utilized for feeding AC local loads and interaction with the grid. This microgrid presents a focus on enhancing the power quality along with the generation of renewable energy sources (RESs). For the improvement in power quality, a generalized integrator (GI) type observer based current control scheme is used here, which controls VSC under GTM of operation. In SAM, the voltage control is implemented to regulate the frequency and voltage at desirable level according to the IEEE standard 1547–2018 standard.

Furthermore, higher penetration of renewable energy sources like the solar photovoltaic (SPV) in modern LVACN escalates such power quality issues because of their fluctuating behavior. In this context, this paper presents an adaptive filtering strategy-based control for the SPV-battery energy storage (BES) system feeding nonlinear loads to improve the power quality at the PCC. The adaptive filtering scheme ensures that the distortions in the load currents are not reflected in the LVACN. Thus, the currents and voltages in LVACN remain linear. Furthermore, a power management scheme is developed to optimize the operation of the SPV-BES system. It supports the PCC voltages by limiting the supplied and drawn power from the LVACN, during peak SPV array generation or low load condition and no SPV array generation or the peak load condition, respectively. The SPV-BES system is also capable of transferring its mode of operation from a grid connected system, to a standalone system, when the supply from the LVACN is interrupted. Thus, the overall system efficiency and reliability are enhanced. Both the simulation and the experimental analyses of the SPV-BES system are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the power management scheme and the adaptive filtering strategy.","PeriodicalId":124226,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Power Electronics, Drives and Energy Systems (PEDES)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122782678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since these motors rely on electronic commutation, inherent problems of power electronic circuits like harmonics and switching losses will be significantly affecting the motor performance. In this paper, a control scheme is proposed which aims to reduce the motor current harmonics and their negative effects and also improve the overall performance of the motor. A DC-DC boost converter fed inverter with Selective Harmonic Elimination based PWM and a passive lowpass filter combination is used to reduce the THD, reduce the harmonic copper loss and improve the overall system performance like torque ripples and input power factor. The control scheme also automatically decides between operating conditions where SHE-PWM is favorable or not and thus avoids the cases of unnecessary introduction of switching losses.","PeriodicalId":124226,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE International Conference on Power Electronics, Drives and Energy Systems (PEDES)","volume":"223 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123029460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
