A mathematical model, which predicts the behavior of the proposed system, is presented to show that both the magnitude and direction of the power flow can be controlled through either relative phase angle or pulse width modulation of voltages produced by the bridges. Viability of the proposed concept is verified through simulation.

Many people have to face difficulties in locking/unlocking and switching ON/OFF the car engine upon losing the car key. In addition to that in most of the higher range car, people have to wait for few minutes after turning on the car engine to allow the car engine to attain its normal operating temperature to get better performance of the car engine and improve its life. Moreover, if a car gets stolen and used for some illegal activities banned by the government then a car owner will face many legal hitches. So to tackle all these issues, an electronic system is designed and implemented in a real car that does not provide only car security feature but provides additional features such as unlocking and locking of the car, and switching ON and OFF the car engine remotely using smart phone.

Although output current ripple is reduced significantly due to interleaving effect but the inductor current ripple is not reduced. One of the solutions to this problem is to use coupled inductor. Bidirectional dc-dc converter is able to achieve high efficiency by using negative inductor current for zero-voltage switching. In this paper, two-phase bidirectional dc-dc converter is analyzed and designed for zero-voltage switching by using negative inductor current, which results in less switching loss.

In the voltage tracing process, the Lagrange linear and quadratic interpolations have been applied to predict voltage magnitudes and phase angles. The predicted solutions are then corrected using the unbalanced three-phase forward/backward power flow solver. The solution process continues until the maximum loading conditions of the system under study are reached. The salient advantage of the method is avoiding construction of massive augmented three-phase Jacobian matrix of the classical Newton-Raphson method. The direct connected WTGSs have been modeled with sufficient details to account for distribution system unbalances and slip variations. Substation transformer tap-setting for voltage regulation is also considered. Voltage collapse scenarios are investigated for unbalanced systems using various unbalanced radial feeders. The results show the robustness of the proposed continuous power-flow method for voltage stability of power distribution networks. Assessment of the obtained results shows that WTGSs of synchronous generator types are more robust than those equipped with induction generators from the point of view of voltage stability.","PeriodicalId":240337,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Conference on Industrial Technology (ICIT)","volume":"25 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121004227","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}

Each circuit module has two three-level DC/DC converters with the same power switches to reduce the voltage stress of each MOSFET at Vin/2 and achieve load current sharing. Thus, the current stress and power rating at the secondary side components are reduced. The current double rectifiers are used at the secondary side to partially cancel the output ripple current. Thus, the sizes of the magnetic components and output filter capacitance are reduced. Due to the resonant behavior by the resonant inductance and resonant capacitance at the transition interval, MOSFETs can be turned on at ZVS under a wide range of load condition and input voltage.
