Operation Method for AC Grid powered PMSM with Open-End Winding in Dual-Inverter Topology for Power Factor Maximization

As the prototype testing showed. the proposed operation method of the PMSM in dual-inverter topology at a single phase AC grid achieved performances. which are comparable to drive system solutions with an active PFC stage. The benefit of this solution is the displacement of additional PFC inductors. These inductors are …

Optimal Demand Response Scheduling with Real Time Thermal Ratings of Overhead Lines for Improved Network Reliability

A probabilistic methodology for optimal scheduling of load reductions recoveries in a day-ahead planning of transmission networks is proposed in the paper. The methodology recognizes several types of uncertainties. and finds optimal demand response scheduling using the network security and customer economics criteria. Impacts of wind generation and real-time thermal …

Multi-Frequency Class-D Inverter for Rectifier Characterisation in High Frequency Inductive Power Transfer Systems

A voltage source Class-D inverter was exploited for the first time in a test rig for IPT rectifier characterisation independent of the magnetic link. The developed test rig makes the measurement of ac power feasible with commercially available passive voltage and current probes. while providing IPT conditions for the circuits …
