The proposed solution consists of a main inverter and auxiliary inverter along with a transformer and LCL filter network to achieve the required DC bus reduction. A new controller structure with two proportional-multi resonant controller for the converters with only one of the inductors current as a controlled variable ensures the active damping of the LCL resonance. The power circuit configuration assists the controller to generate a difference in the modulation signal due to non-equal gains in two controllers and helps to achieve the resonance damping without capacitor current sensor. Hence, the corresponding capacitor current sensor can be eliminated. The converter operates for any point of common coupling (PCC) loading conditions and the performance of the controller is immune to the grid impedance variation. A detailed stability study is carried out for the proposed controller. The proposed controller can achieve a very fast dynamic response with an excellent stability margin. The proposed solution is verified through simulation studies and through a scaled-down experimental prototype.","PeriodicalId":373546,"journal":{"name":"Power Electronics and Drives","volume":"94 5-6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140517011","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 FTC is associated with an indirect rotor indirect rotor field-oriented control (IRFOC) strategy. Fault feedforward compensation of the current components is introduced using the residual signal generated by the calculations passing through the PR controller. The fractional-order PI controller is applied as a feedforward fractional-order perturbation observer to the speed control loop, which attempts to minimise the error induced by the fault. In this context, a fault-tolerant control scheme is achieved. The performance characteristics of the proposed fault tolerant control for a dual star induction machine drive are compared with the fault tolerant control based on the conventional integer order IP (IOPI) to verify the effectiveness of the proposed FTC scheme under various conditions, by examining the robustness of the control in the presence of faults. To evaluate the performance of the proposed technique, simulation results are obtained using the Matlab/Simulink environment. According to the obtained simulation results, the proposed FTC system achieves significantly better responses than the conventional IRFOC system in terms of harmonics in the stator currents, and low oscillations in the electromagnetic torque response.","PeriodicalId":373546,"journal":{"name":"Power Electronics and Drives","volume":"83 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140522336","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}

Betka","doi":"10.2478/pead-2024-0013","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2478/pead-2024-0013","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 Solar energy, an available and renewable resource, can be efficiently transformed into electrical energy through the use of photovoltaic (PV) cells. The primary emphasis lies in the significance of maximising power output for economic considerations. In terms of optimising power generation, the implementation of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques is imperative. A range of approaches, such as super twisting (ST) control and modified extremum seeking control (ESC-mod), are explored for their potential in enhancing the efficiency of power-generation systems. The novelty is a combination of these methods; the modified ESC has the role of finding the optimum voltage value of the global maximum power point (MPP) during the partial shading, while the super-twisting improves the performance of the system. The efficacy of the MPPT algorithm is assessed across diverse conditions, encompassing scenarios with load variations and fluctuating irradiances (uniform and non-uniform). The experimental setup involves essential components such as a PV generator, a boost converter and a resistive load. This comprehensive testing aims to evaluate the algorithm’s performance under varying circumstances, providing insights into its adaptability and effectiveness across different operational conditions. The system is modelled, simulated using Matlab–Simulink and implemented using a dSPACE 1104 card. Simulation results indicate that ST control is faster in reaching the permanent regime, but ESC-mod provides smoother performance in the permanent regime. The integration of both ST control and ESC-mod methods proves advantageous by diminishing the response time in the seeking process while concurrently ensuring a consistent and smooth operation in the permanent regime. This combined approach has undergone practical implementation and testing across diverse conditions, encompassing both optimal, healthy states and shaded environments. The results affirm the method’s ability to deliver efficient and stable performance across a spectrum of operating conditions.","PeriodicalId":373546,"journal":{"name":"Power Electronics and Drives","volume":"9 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140515857","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}

Input volt-ampere requirement is minimum if the current drawn by the ‘MC’ is sinusoidal and input displacement power factor (IDPF) is unity. A MC is inherently capable of maintaining a unity displacement power factor (UDPF) angle at its input terminals. However, the input currents drawn from the grid are not sinusoidal. The high-frequency ripples are suppressed by input current filters (ICFs).These filters additionally introduce a leading phase angle for the current which varies with the loading. This phase lead can be compensated by adjusting the angle between the input current space vector and the input voltage space vector of the MC. The computation of this adjustment angle depends on the estimation of power losses in the switching devices. A simple method is proposed in this paper to estimate the switching losses without measuring device voltages and currents using the perturbation technique. The perturbation logic depends on input current, instantaneous active and reactive power computed at regular intervals of time.

The controller introduced in this paper is cost-effective, has a fast-dynamic response, and has a simple hardware implementation. In order to comply with the above specifications, a dedicated controller has been conceived and fully implemented within a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) device. This FPGA-based controller integrates the whole signal-processing functions needed to drive the SAPF, as well as an original method for sector identification. The intended controller provides the desired power references to select the optimal switching sequences. The switching orders follow the grid reference to drive the voltage source inverter (VSI), so the SAPF achieves good performances while ensuring balanced overall supply currents, unity power factor, and reduced harmonic load currents. The proposed digital implementation achieves a valuable compromise between fast dynamic response, minimum execution time, and reduced FPGA resources, through a simple hardware design implementation.
