However, as a distribution system cannot have measurement devices at all nodes, this estimation must rely on least possible measurements. This paper proposes an algorithm to place the optimum number and location of measurement devices on a radial distribution network. The algorithm is based on backward-forward sweep method for the state estimation and a search algorithm for decision making. The possible uncertainties introduced by the measurement devices and the random changes in the loading conditions are considered to yield a reliable solution to the placement problem. The accuracy of the solution is obtained through a Weighted Least Square (WLS) approach. This approach is demonstrated on a benchmark network.","PeriodicalId":6644,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Power and Advanced Control Engineering (ICPACE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"253-257"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76163387","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}

PV generation depends on solar irradiance, site location and environmental factors like temperature, wind and. Thus output of PV output is fluctuating in nature and the addition of non linear load make the situation more critical. GA based MPPT for PV generation works for local optimal solution. DC/DC and boost converter has been used to obtain rated desired rated voltage. BSU acts as secondary source to ensure uninterrupted power supply. A suitable three phase voltage source inverter (VSI), at point of common coupling (PCC), provides regulated power supply. Boost converters incorporating proportional controller (PI) increases PV voltage up to 400V. Conventionally used perturb and observe (PO) algorithm has been used for comparative study. Controlled pulse width modulated (PWM) switching pulse for converter unit and single section LC filter at output terminal eliminates harmonic components. To exhibit the system compatibility resistive, reactive, asynchronous induction motor and nonlinear load has been switched at different instants for variable solar irradiance and temperature.","PeriodicalId":6644,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Power and Advanced Control Engineering (ICPACE)","volume":"31 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78999667","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}

They offer safe and reliable operation for their consumers by managing the micro-grids' power generation and trading with the main grid. Furthermore, micro-grids can help in integrating and promoting for Renewable Energy Sources (RES) and reducing the environmental impacts of traditional centralized generation. This paper proposes multiple environment dispatch problem solution in micro-grids using Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) technique to solve the generation dispatch problem. A combined cost optimization scheme is investigated to minimize both operational cost and emission levels while satisfying the micro-grid's load demand. Furthermore, the proposed multiple environment dispatch problem solution is used to evaluate promoting RES implementation in micro-grids despite of their high capital cost using the combined economic emission dispatch problem. The proposed multiple environment dispatch solution was implemented using MatLab and tested on two case studies with and without RES-Wind Turbine-Solar (WT-PV). The obtained results from the proposed technique are compared with those calculated using other Techniques; Gradient to evaluate the proposed method. The outcomes are evaluated and discussed.

Higher common mode voltage results in higher induced shaft voltage and bearing currents.

In this regard, it is to be understood that whether hydrophobicity still persists for medium and heavily polluted polymeric insulators. ie, whether hydrophobicity transfer occurs on a polluted polymer insulators. This experimental investigation is being carried out in order to understand whether hydrophobicity persists for thin, medium and thickly coated polymeric insulators.

An appropriate topology of a ZVS based Phase Shifted full -bridge DC-DC converter is selected based on advantages of reduced switching losses and stresses with fixed switching frequency of 100KHZ. A PWM Controller UC1875 is used which has features of programmable output delay for resonant switching action with both voltage and current modes of controlling options. A feed forward voltage mode control is utilized which is easier to design and analyze with good noise margin and stable modulation process and improved line regulation.

Validation of proposed model is done by comparison of model simulation outputs with experimental results from actual plant. A simple Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control is then applied to the system achieving output feedback control. In this process, only the cart motion information is fed back to the controller, while the angular displacement data of flexible inverted pendulum is not available.
