In the process of load flow calculation, two developed matrices bus injection to bus current (BIBC) and branch current to bus voltage (BCBV), and a simple matrix multiplication are used to obtain load flow solutions. A 33-bus radial distribution test system is taken as a study system for performing the test.

Switching frequencies of 2 to 15 kHz with 0.1 mus rise times are common with the current IGBT technology while allowing for power levels over 200 kW. While the high switching speeds and zero switching loss schemes drastically improve the performance of the PWM inverters, the high rate of voltage rise (dv/dt) of 0 to 600 V in less than 0.1 mus has adverse effects on the motor insulation and bearings and deteriorates the waveform quality. Long cables contribute to a damped high frequency ringing due to the distributed nature of the cable leakage inductance and coupling capacitance (L-C) at the motor terminals resulting in over voltages which further stress the motor insulation. Voltage reflection is a function of inverter output pulse rise time and the length of the motor cables, which behave as a transmission line for the inverter output pulses.","PeriodicalId":262597,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Conference on Power Electronic, Drives and Energy Systems","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126415331","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}

For proper operation of such a composite observer, it is sufficient if the fundamental frequency is approximately made known because, the implementation exhibits sufficient pass-bandwidth centered on the assumed fundamental as well as the harmonics. However, the settling period and the bandwidth of the observer depend on how far the observer poles have been placed from the origin of the s-plane or the z-plane. The effect of small deviations from the central fundamental frequency of the observer, on the magnitudes and phase angles of the extracted signals is discussed.
