The wind power has been utilized since old days for applications such as pumping water, grain grinding mills, driving ships, etc. However, due to its uneven nature, wind energy has never been a choice of power engineers. With the inherent variability of wind due to fluctuating weather conditions, wind speed prediction techniques play a vital role in determining the feasibility of esteemed wind power projects. Modern weather forecasting involves a combination of analyzed data, computer models, knowledge of trends and patterns. In this paper various short-term statistical wind speed forecasting techniques have been analyzed and focused upon.","PeriodicalId":206767,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 6th India International Conference on Power Electronics (IICPE)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115929952","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 FACTS devices can enhance the power system capability of transmission. A number of FACTS devices are working in the power system. Among these FACTS devices, Static VAR Compensator (SVC) is a shunt connected FACTS device which can be used effectively in Voltage Control mode. In the MATLAB power system model, SVC is operating with a PI controller, which has simple functioning and is cheaper in operation but has poor performance with non-linear characteristics. So to overcome this problem the controller is designed as a combination of both TID controller and Fuzzy Logic controller. TID controller has a tilted component, which replaces the proportional component in the PID controller. In this paper the suggested controller has been tested on a 2 machine 3 bus power system using MATLAB/SIMULINK software. The simulation consumes lesser run time and there are fewer oscillations in the system with the hybrid TID and Fuzzy Logic controller.","PeriodicalId":206767,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 6th India International Conference on Power Electronics (IICPE)","volume":"139 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117341997","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}

This paper highlights the monitoring of voltages and phase angles across different nodes that provides very useful information indicating the system state and its proximity to stability limit. The most crucial task is placement of PMUs at minimum number of buses for complete observability. Recursive spanning tree algorithm of PSAT is applied to find out the minimal placement locations for observability of all buses. The Thevenin's equivalent parameters have been obtained from the measured and estimated voltages at the load buses and impedance matrix Zbus. The parameters obtained are used to find the voltage stability boundary.

Voltage Source inverters produce an output voltage or current with levels either zero to positive voltage or zero to negative voltage that means two levels. These bi-level inverters are powered by different type of gating signals like square, quasi - square and sinusoidal Pulse width modulated signals. Different gating signals result in different harmonic levels in the output signal. In this paper, a hardware prototype of a single phase inverter using MOSFETs as the power switches has been developed. The MOSFETs are driven by square and quasi-square gating signals. These gating signals have been generated by designing the driver circuit using a MOSFET driver IC. In order to maintain the voltage level, the conduction time interval of MOSFETs has been maintained by controlling the pulse width of the gating pulses. Performance of the inverter has been studied for RL load.
