Smart grid self-healing: Functions, applications, and developments
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Although the power system grid growth pace was slow, the load demand was not. Yet, there are some challenges that impeding the power grid to cope with the load pace, namely: renewable energy integration; energy efficiency; ...
Modular Multilevel Converter-Based Bipolar High-Voltage Pulse Generator with Sensorless Capacitor Voltage Balancing Technique
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
In order to generate bipolar high-voltage (HV) pulses across certain load from HV dc (HVdc) power supply, a voltage source inverter (VSI) stage should be inserted between the load and the supply. In order to meet the ...
A nine-arm modular multilevel converter (9A-MMC) for six-phase medium voltage motor drives
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Dual three-phase (asymmetrical six-phase) induction motors have received significant attention in high power medium voltage drive applications. Typically, two three-phase voltage source converters are needed to feed such ...
Quasi seven-level operation of multilevel converters with selective harmonic elimination
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Generally, selective harmonic elimination (SHE) complexity for multilevel inverters increases with the increase in number of levels. In this paper, a novel approach for SHE is introduced. This approach is based on cancelling ...
High voltage pulse generator based on DC-to-DC boost converter with capacitor-diode voltage multipliers for bacterial decontamination
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
