In the networked control system framework, it is observed that transfer of incremental frequency variable (an indication of the in-balance between the generation and the demand) through communication links to effect closed-loop control in micro-grid systems introduces time-delays in the feedback path. The feedback delays exert a destabilizing effect on to the overall performance of the closed -loop system. In addition to stabilization, if the designed controllers are also required to meet relative stability specifications like gain margin and phase margin, the stability of the networked micro-grid system will become more vulnerable to even small magnitudes of network delay. In this paper, using the classical transcendental characteristic equation method, the impact of gain and phase margins on the stable delay margin is investigated. Based on the detailed analysis carried out on a standard bench-mark system, few important inferences are arrived.","PeriodicalId":134828,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th International Conference on Electrical Energy Systems (ICEES)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125573774","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}

DC-DC boost converters are universally used in Non-Conventional energy applications. But the high switching frequency increases the power loss due to switching and hence the power converter efficiency decreases. To increase the converter efficiency soft switched boost converters (SSB) are used. But the voltage from input (renewable energy sources) is always not constant; it remains in its specific manner. This varying voltage has to be maintained constant which helps to charge the DC battery. To sustain the output voltage at a steady value, a PID controller is proposed for SSB converter. The design of PID controller was carried out using Zeigler Nichols tuning method. Simulation of SSB converters and SSB with controller was developed by MATLAB/SIMULINK. The performance of the SSB with PID controller was tested under varying load conditions and the results were reported.","PeriodicalId":134828,"journal":{"name":"2018 4th International Conference on Electrical Energy Systems (ICEES)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127398880","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}

Additionally, the optimal location for one application need not necessarily be the optimal location for other applications as well. This study optimally locates the device in order to minimize the power losses in the power system using the Bees Algorithm. Simulations were run on a 5 bus system in MATLAB.

Bushing is prepared by means of porcelain material and they serve as mechanical support for the transmission lines and exterior connections.

The top level controller also controls the load in order to avoid systems blackout in case of insufficient power generation and storage power.
