The output voltage of synchronous generator is regulated constantly by field current control in excitation system High frequency PWM converter (current control mode buck converter) type excitation systam fer synchronous generator is able to control exciter current when the load change happened. This paper deals with the design and evaluation of the excitation system for a synchronous generator to improve the steady state and transient stability. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed excitation system is able to improve the response time by the DVR(digital voltage regulator) of 50[kW] synchronous generator.

Ths paper describes on the stability improvement of output voltage control on the power suwJy for railway. On the transient states such as input voltage sudden change, the inpJt and output voltage beccxre unstable by L-C resonance occurred due to constant output voltage control.

This paper proposed a novel SIT high frequency resonant inverter having drive signal phase shift control function. Phasor control type inverters using SIT can realize a power conversion on the high switching frequency with low switching loss. Especially, the high output power can be abstained by connecting the output voltage of two unit inverters In serIes. The stability of system using protection circuit for over current and the automatic follow-up control with load variation by PLL is presented. This inverter produce approximately sinusoidal waveform at a high frequency, switching frequency ranging from 180[kHz] to 220[kHz], and is applied to the 2[kW] induction heating. The operating characteristics of this inverter circuit are discussed from a theoretical point of view and compared with experimental results. results.

This paper deals with the tracking control problem of industrial robotic manipulators with unknown or changing dynamics. The proposed method makes use of multiple moodels and switching mechanism by fuzzy inference of the manipulator in an indirect adaptive controller architecture. The models used for the indmtification of the manipliator are identical, except for the initial estimates of the unknown inertial pararmeters of the manipulator and its load. The torque input that is applied to the joint actuators is determined at every instant by the identification model that best approximates the robot dynamics. Simulation results are also included to dermnstrate the improvement in the tracking perfermance when the proposed method is used.s used.

This paper describes to control system for AC to DC converter which has been widely used to power source in industrial factory and domestics. In this paper, three-phase PWM AC to DC Boost converter that operates with unity power factor and sinusodial input line currents is presented. The current control of this converter is based on the predicted current control strategy with fixed switching frequency and the line currents track to reference currents within one sampling time interval. By using this control strategy low ripples in the output current and the voltage as well as fast dynamic response are achieved with small dc link capacitance employed.ployed.

With the proliferation of nonlinear loads such as personal computer in an educational building, high neutral harmonic currents have been observed. High neutral currents in three-phase four ire distribution power systems can cause tots of harmonic problems such as overloaded neutral conductors and malfunction of protective equipment. On-site measurements of harmonic currents and voltages were made and the corresponding equivalent circuits was developed. The circuit model under study was simulated numerically and graphically through the use of the software MATLAB. Simulation results verifying the effect of a single-tuned passive filter for the neutral harmonic current reduction are presented.

At the end of the 19th century, a battle known as the War of the Currents was fought over how electricity would be generated, delivered, and utilized. In this day and age, there has been a growing interest in Green Growth policies as countermeasures against global warming. As a result of these policies, the use of new and renewable energy needed a power converter to replace fossil fuels has expanded. To reduce power consumption through high efficiency of conversion, Low Voltage DC (LVDC) distribution systems are suggested as an alternative. In a DC distribution system, DC loads are very efficient due to decrease the stages of power conversion. If the LVDC distribution system is adopted, not only DC load but also existing AC loads should be connected with LVDC system. Thus, the modeling of two loads is needed to analyze the DC distribution system. This paper, especially, is focused on the modeling of resistive load and electronic load including power electronic converters using ElectroMagnetic Transient Program (EMTP) software.

Surge protective devices(SPDs) are widely used as a most effective means protecting the electrical and electronic equipment against overvoltages such as lightning and switching surges. When installing SPDs, it is essential that the voltage protection level provided by SPDs should be lower than the withstand voltage of the equipment being protected. But even the proper selection of SPDs are achieved, the voltage at the equipment terminal may be higher than the residual voltage of SPD due to the reflection and oscillation phenomena. This paper was focused on the investigations of the conditions for which the equipment is protected by an SPD taking into account the influences of the protective distance and type of load. The protective effects of SPD with voltage-limiting component were analyzed as functions of types of load and protective distance between the SPD and load. As a result, in the cases of long protective distances, capacitive loads and loads with high resistance, the voltage at the load terminal was significantly higher than the residual voltage of SPD. It was found that the proper installation of SPDs should be carried out by taking into account the protective distance and type of load to achieve reliable protection of electronic equipments against surges.

Induction motor needs reactive power to sustain the electromagnetic field required for rotating. If reactive power is provided by the load side instead of the source side, power factor will be increased. Power factor of induction motor is usually low and needs to be compensated with power capacitor. In domestic regulations, Capacitor capacity for the power factor correction of induction motor should be complied with the recommended value by the motor output. But, at the same output, characteristics of induction motor is different from each other by the rotation speed and is not suitable for application of regular capacitor value regardless of motor's characteristics. In this paper, we compared to each other with the existing value and new proposed value with rotation speed under the same output condition, confirmed that power capacitor capacity is needed to upgrade for the better power factor.
