The conversion chain uses a Doubly Fed Induction Generator DFIG whereas the control method is based on a Finite States Model Predictive Control FS-MPC. The proposed control method selects the optimal switching state of the two levels back to back power converter that minimizes the cost function, where this optimal voltage vector is applied on the output of the power converter in next sampling time. The proposed predictive control strategy uses only one sample time prediction and it is intuitive since it is very simple for implementation. In order to adjust the measured rotor currents to track their references, the error between orthogonal rotor current components predictions to their computed values used to select the optimal vector and applied on the power converter in rotor side CSR in next sampling time. On other side, based on the error between the active and reactive power prediction and their references of the electrical grid, the predictive algorithm control of the gird side converter CSG kept the Dc-link voltage constant and guarantee that the whole system functioning with unity power factor. The experimental results confirm the advantages of using this structure for wind energy conversion system and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.","PeriodicalId":37664,"journal":{"name":"Periodica polytechnica Electrical engineering and computer science","volume":"6 1","pages":"174-190"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80465138","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 process of stencil printing has been investigated by a machine learning technique utilizing the ensemble method of boosted decision trees. The phenomenon of overfitting, which can alter the prediction error of boosted decision trees has also been analyzed in detail. The training data set was acquired experimentally by performing stencil printing using different printing speeds (from 20 to 120 mm/s) and various types of solder pastes with different particle sizes (particle size range 25–45 µm, 20–38 µm, 15–25 µm) and different stencil aperture sizes, characterized by their area ratio (from 0.35 to 1.7). The overfitting phenomenon was addressed by training by using incomplete data sets, which means that a subset of data corresponding to a particular input parameter value was excluded from the training. Four cases were investigated with incomplete data sets, by excluding the corresponding data subsets for: area ratios of 0.75 and 1.3, and printing speeds of 70 mm/s and 85 mm/s. It was found that the prediction error at input parameter values that have been excluded from the training can be lowered by eliminating the overfitting; though, the decrease in the prediction error depends on the rate of change in the output parameter in the vicinity of the respective input parameter value.","PeriodicalId":37664,"journal":{"name":"Periodica polytechnica Electrical engineering and computer science","volume":"2 1","pages":"132-138"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80241358","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}

Babqi","doi":"10.3311/ppee.19232","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3311/ppee.19232","url":null,"abstract":"A zero-inertia micro-grid is a power system consisting of multiple renewable energy power sources and energy storage systems without the presence of conventional synchronous generators. In such a system, a large variation of the load or source sides during the islanded mode of operation extremely degrades the micro-grid's voltage and frequency stability. This study presents a virtual inertia-based predictive control strategy for a small-scale zero-inertia multiple distributed generators (DGs) micro-grid. In islanded mode, Voltage Model Predictive Control (VMPC) was implemented to control and maintain the voltage and frequency of the micro-grid. However, instabilities in frequency and voltage may rise at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) due to large variations at both source and load sides. Therefore, the proposed virtual inertia loop calculates the amount of active power to be delivered or absorbed by each DG, and its effect is reflected in the estimated d current component of the VMPC, thus providing better frequency regulation. In grid-connected mode, Direct Power Model Predictive Control (DPMPC) was implemented to manage the power flow between each DG and the utility grid. The control approach also enables the DG plug and play characteristics. The performance of the control strategy was investigated and verified using the PSCAD/EMTDC software platform.","PeriodicalId":37664,"journal":{"name":"Periodica polytechnica Electrical engineering and computer science","volume":"84 1","pages":"163-173"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80656852","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}

However, the system must be run economically to access energy at a cost-effective level related to existing energy enterprises and energy consumption in the load which is represented periodically in the total costs of operations for all operating units. As a basis for its determination, the transmission of economic power within the technical limits applicable is taken into consideration. Environmental factors, on the other hand, are also an impediment to technical limitations. As a result, the operation's economic measure is expressed in the process of providing and selling energy to customers. These works use the Artificial Bees Colony algorithm to determine the scheduling of generating units using the basic principle of optimization to describe its relationship as an economic function. The IEEE-30 bus system is used as a basic model for system development. The analysis' findings show that the weighting factor scheme has an impact on the minimum total cost and that the combination of the electricity distribution process and environmental factors has implications for the operational financial condition and electricity production. The power output, in particular, is proportional to the cost of each generating unit.","PeriodicalId":37664,"journal":{"name":"Periodica polytechnica Electrical engineering and computer science","volume":"325 1","pages":"72-79"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78009488","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}
