Hence, high frequency operation is feasible with good efficiency. The on-time (${T}_{ST}$) of the Y-source dc-dc converter was kept constant to achieve ZCS under various input voltage.

Wind power plants are required to meet the reactive power demands and the voltage control strategy. Shunt and Series FACTS devices are being used to increase the maximum transfer capability of a transmission line and the improvement of voltage stability. With the use of the aforementioned, voltage magnitudes, phase angles, and line impedances can be controlled. Worldwide, electric utilities use five popular types of FACTS devices for this purpose: STATCOM, SSSC, TCSC, SVC, and UPFC. For an electric utility, it would be practical if the voltage stability criterion is met using the most beneficial FACTS device. In this paper, the amelioration of the steady-state voltage stability of a wind-dominated power system using STATCOM and SSSC is compared in a modified IEEE-14 bus system. CCT amelioration with the use of SSSC is pointed out. Improvement of the loading margin of the weakest bus of the system is done by using STATCOM. Finally, some conclusions about the use of STATCOM and SSSC for voltage stability and power flow followed by the economic feasibility of the proposed solution are provided.","PeriodicalId":392538,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Kansas Power and Energy Conference (KPEC)","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115063200","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}

Due to the popularity of multilevel inverters in industries and in applications that require a wide range of voltages, there have been many challenges to achieve high-quality voltage. Many pieces of research have been done to solve the problem of annoying harmonics in multilevel inverters. In this study, pulse width modulation (PWM) has been proposed as a switching method. Using the Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) technique, the inverter switching can be carried out in low frequency, and also, this method can reduce the annoying harmonics significantly. However, in the lower modulation index, eliminating such harmonics is challenging, resulting in a considerable increase in output voltage distortion. This study suggests a way to solve the problem. In this research, eliminating selected harmonics in a multilevel inverter with variable DC links is proposed. The DC-link variable method in this study is to use a high-frequency isolated DC-DC converter. The proposed method is verified on a 5-level Cascaded H-Bridge (CHB) inverter using the SHE-PWM method solved by particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm.","PeriodicalId":392538,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Kansas Power and Energy Conference (KPEC)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121334952","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}

Besides, more and more distributed generations especially renewable generations are integrated into the power grid. The fundamental frequency short circuit current contributed by distributed generations (DG) could be small, and hence it is challenging to use overcurrent protection to protect distribution systems with DGs. This paper proposes a new travelling wave based protection method for identifying the faulted feeder. Traveling wave is generated by the faults and travels to the feeder head. Recording and analysis of the traveling wave features can help decide the faulted feeder. To increase the robustness and fault tolerance, Bayesian inference method is applied to combine prior information about feeder fault probability and IED recordings to determine the actual faulted section. The method is versatile and is applicable to feeders with or without DGs.","PeriodicalId":392538,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Kansas Power and Energy Conference (KPEC)","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130032911","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 virtual resistance, inserted through control action damps limit cycle oscillations due to CPL. This stage is referred to as active damping stage. The second stage enables voltage restoration and performs voltage regulation in the event of source and load variations. This stage is referred to as voltage compensation stage.
