Determination of optimized soft starter firing angle to mitigate high inrush current during motor starting using PSCAD
Starting of an induction motor is a process that creates many challenging problems for the motor and operations of the power system. The induction motor can be damaged, characteristic can be changed and performance of ... -
Fault location algotithm based on ann for single line-to-ground fault in MV distribution system
This project was focused to detect and locate the single line-to-ground (SLG) fault which occurs on transmission lines in MV networks. SLG fault is the most common compared to other faults. To detect and locate single-phase ... -
Improvement of electrical power system dynamic stability using Riccati Matrix method
Low frequency oscillations appear when a small disturbance occurs in an interconnected multi-machine power system and becomes one of the major subjects concerning in power system studies. Due to small disturbances, power ... -
Induction motor drive system performance under influence of voltage sags and interruptions
This thesis presents performance of induction motor drive system under influence of voltage sags and interruptions. The drive system consists of an induction motor and adjustable speed drive (ASD) that connected in series. ... -
Multiple objective optimization using artificial bee colony algorithm for optimal placement and sizing of distributed generation
The implementation of DG may lead to several problems in power system. The increase in system losses and unwanted voltage levels outside the allowed electricity utility limits may cause by DG if the power injected by DG ... -
Simulation study of micro wind turbine
The micro wind turbine is an innovative technology that can generate electricity with a low wind speed condition. This electricity is produced from a kinetic energy which is harvested by the wind turbine and the particular ... -
Single line to ground fault distance estimation in medium voltage network based on measurement from secondary side of distribution substations
Faults may occur in every power system network in the world. It can be caused by natural phenomenon and also human errors. Faults may cause damage to the system which resulting in system failure. Earth fault is the most ...
