The magnitudes of the grid voltage and current injected by a GCSI simulated in MATLAB/Simulink are estimated by each QSG-PLL approach. The best transfer function for the GCSI model is estimated in terms of goodness of fit, using the magnitudes obtained by each approach and the instrument variable system identification approach. Different grid disturbances (e.g., voltage sag, phase angle jumps, harmonic distortions, frequency fluctuation) are used to evaluate the performance of each data-driven model in comparison to the simulated model. The paper provides researchers guidance on which QSG-PLL to use to model GCSIs using data-driven methods.","PeriodicalId":365235,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion (SPEEDAM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129054913","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}

As a result, in the last decades, many states introduced performance-based regulations to push distribution system operators to effectively evaluate the investments and preventive actions to improve the quality of the service offered to customers. To do that, one of the enabling factors is a preliminary investigation of the distribution network reliability and resilience, passing through a detailed analysis of historical fault data. The article presents the results of a statistical evaluation of real fault data relating to the electricity distribution network of Milan, Italy. Due to the urban nature of the considered distribution network, the analysis mainly focuses on the phenomenon of heatwaves and network resilience. However, some considerations are also given for reliability-related issues. The lessons learned from the investigation represent a valuable input to be used by the local distribution system operators, Unareti, to plan and operate the distribution grid.","PeriodicalId":365235,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion (SPEEDAM)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125482483","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}

It consists of an Open-end Winding AC machine connected from one side to a three-level inverter and on the other side to a resonant DC link inverter. The main three level inverter is low frequency modulated and manages the entire active power while the resonant DC link inverter works as an active power filter. The obtained configuration can operate at high switching frequency because switching power losses are minimized on the main inverter thanks to a simple step modulation and on the auxiliary one because of zero voltage switching. A sigma-delta modulation is adopted on the auxiliary inverter, while a proportional resonant regulator manages the load current. Simulation tests demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed configuration.","PeriodicalId":365235,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion (SPEEDAM)","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126562181","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 damage is mainly caused by fluting of the bearing raceways. Two characteristic parameters for electrical bearing damage have been introduced: apparent bearing current density $hat{J}_{b}$, apparent bearing power $hat{S}_{b}$ and the related electrical bearing wear which are compared and discussed. Both have in common the electrical bearing current amplitude. This current is measurable via modifications at the bearing shields. Long-term tests with different apparent bearing current densities lead to a probabilistic prediction of critical values, above which bearing damage may occur due to fluting.","PeriodicalId":365235,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion (SPEEDAM)","volume":"87 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121133896","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 algorithm uses the linear interpolation method “LIM” to translate the I(V) characteristic of the solar panel to the standard test condition “STC” in order to calculate the maximum power of the PV panel,and then applies a monthly random degradation to make a dynamic prediction using a linear regression that will adjust with each new monthly degradation to estimate the RUL. we tested the algorithm with a random degradation per month of a sum corresponding to 20% of the maximum power of the PV panel during 25 years which correspond to the reliability of the PV panel, we also added4 abrupt random degradation between 0.5% and 0.8% of the maximum power of the PV panel to try to simulate the occurrence of critical defects and see the impact on the prediction of the algorithm. The prediction of the algorithm for the first test converged 20 months before the maximum power of the PV panel became lower than the electrical energy demand, for the second test it converged 11 months in advance, but the algorithm made an error of 4 months due to the abrupt degradation that distorted the prediction. These results will allow us to contribute to a realistic Pronostic of PV panel lifetime and performance with real-time data to improve reliability and maintenance schedules.","PeriodicalId":365235,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion (SPEEDAM)","volume":"53 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125208208","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 reach these targets, the device model is usually obtained through a divide et impera approach, where each block of the model emulates a specific device characteristic. Such an approach facilitates the development of an accurate model that need low computation effort. The topology used for modelling a Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFET can make difficult to reach these targets since the interaction among blocks hinder the aforesaid approach. With this in mind, this paper identifies the problems related to the different topologies proposed by industry and academia. Some solutions are proposed for each type of unwanted interaction that has been detected.
