Facing the continuous development of power electronic technology, a large number of power electronic switching components and dynamic components have been incorporated into the power system. In contrast, DC distribution network has technical advantages over AC distribution network in many fields. As an important part of the DC distribution network, converter has strong nonlinear dynamic characteristics, which will have a serious impact on stable operation. In addition, the fault transient characteristics of power electronic systems are complex and short in duration, which not only limits the application of passive detection and protection technology, but also brings difficulties to the detection and location of faults in distribution lines. Traditional fault classification and ranging methods have a series of problems such as fault resistance, line branch reflection, single judgment of fault interval, and inaccurate fault location. In response to this, this article proposes a converter-based new active detection DC distribution network fault identification and ranging technology. In more detail, this technology uses converter as an active detection method for power electronics DC power supply. First, DC detection signal is injected into the line through the power electronics DC power supply. Then, the fault type signal is identified by detecting the response signal. Finally, the voltage and current spectra obtained by Fourier decomposition are used to calculate the harmonic impedance and perform fault location. This method uses the converter in the DC distribution network, which not only does not require additional equipment, but also is basically not affected by the fault resistance, with the advantages of accurate detection results and fast speed. Moreover, the experimental platform is built to conduct experiments in various failure scenarios to verify the feasibility of the technology.","PeriodicalId":142509,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Power Energy Systems and Applications (ICoPESA)","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114863579","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}

At present, all the state-of-the-art tools accomplish the P&R work in logic gate level. Although some of them can establish final cell level layout through technology mapping, whether the mapped result contains defects in the sense of circuit design is not considered at all. In this paper, we propose the concept of design rule checking (DRC) of QCA circuit in P&R algorithms for the first time. Four concrete DRC rules are proposed, with the help of which the P&R algorithm can effectively control the positions of inputs, outputs and logic gates, and optimizes various aspects of the circuit such as the number of wire crossings. Experiments show that with the assistance of DRC, correctly functioning cell level layout is far more easily obtained than ever before.","PeriodicalId":142509,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Power Energy Systems and Applications (ICoPESA)","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126166271","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}

To meet such requirements, a novel module integrated structure of permanent magnet synchronous motor is designed and the dynamic mathematical model is established, and the coupled magnetic field of stator winding among multiple modules is analyzed. An integral circular stator can be split into multiple modules, and then these modules are integrated according to design rules to form different module groups. Meanwhile, each module group is able to operate independently. In order to classify and distinguish the integrated modules, the concepts of master-module and sub-module are defined. By integrating multiple sub-modules into one master-module, the coupled magnetic field among multiple master-modules is decoupled. Because the windings in adjacent master-modules are disconnected, the parameters of three-phase windings of different master-modules are unequal. Thus, by phase exchange of the sub-modules, the total length of each phase winding in this master-module is equal and the inductance value of each phase winding is the same. Finally, the coupled magnetic field analysis is carried out by using the finite element method. The experimental results verify the feasibility of the proposed structural for permanent magnet motor.","PeriodicalId":142509,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Power Energy Systems and Applications (ICoPESA)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124959292","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}

The grid-forming controls are characterized with the introduction of two specific factors, for the direct assessment of the inertia and the damping which can be provided by the grid-forming converter. The sensitivity analysis of the two feedforward schemes indicates that the enhancement of the transient performances of the control results in a reduction of the inertia synthetically provided by the converter. The results show that the feedforward frequency is significantly more sensitive than the feedforward angle to the feedforward term, and that the feedforward frequency presents a suitable range of damping capabilities but limited possibility of improving the inertial capability.

The impedance model based on the traditional state-space average method, which ignores the frequency coupling effect of the SPWM modulator, can only accurately analyze the low-frequency instability. Therefore, to study the wide frequency range oscillation of such system, the frequency coupled impedance model of the LCL-type VSC is established considering control delay and the frequency coupling effect of the SPWM modulator in this paper. And an equivalent decoupled sequence impedance model is derived by the diagonalization method to simplify the stability analysis.

A rigorous mathematical solution method is proposed to accurately analyze the influence of NHPWM mode configuration on the MMC output voltage. Accurate analytical formula for the harmonic distribution of the converter output voltage under different modulation ratios and modulation mode distribution schemes is obtained, proving this kind of hybrid modulation strategy can suppress the low-order harmonics brought by NLM.

One of the implications is the harmonic distortion which results in the degradation of electrical components that are connected at the load end. Few custom power devices including Distribution Static Compensator (D-STATCOM) have been determined to enhance the power quality of the supply. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the effect of harmonics in the distribution system and to minimize the percentage of total harmonic distortion (THD) of the source current to be less than 5% for 1 kV systems or below according to the IEEE STD 519-2014 standard limit. This paper employs the D-STATCOM device as the primary component, which demands the use of a specific controller, the Synchronous Reference Frame Theory (SRFT) technique to significantly remove the harmonic contents of the source current. The simulation was modelled utilizing software MATLAB/Simulink R2019a and the percentage of THD was calculated with the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis window. The findings from simulations indicated that the overall harmonic distortion of supply current has been lowered effectively and are within the allowable range. The source current waveform was enhanced through its sinusoidal waveform manners after the connection of the D-STATCOM device to the system. Regardless of the changes in PV irradiation levels, the outcomes have been achieved with all THD percentage values obtained falls below the required limit for each phase.","PeriodicalId":142509,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Power Energy Systems and Applications (ICoPESA)","volume":"119 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131175215","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}
