In this paper, a loss minimization control method for interior permanent magnet synchronous motors is presented with considering self-saturation and cross saturation. According to variation of the d-axis and q-axis inductances by different values of the d-axis and q-axis components of currents, it is necessary to consider self-saturation and cross saturation in the loss minimization control method. In addition, the iron loss resistance variation due to frequency variation is considered in the condition of loss minimization. Furthermore, the loss minimization control method is compared with maximum torque per ampere (MTPA), unity power factor (UPF) and $i_d=0$ control methods. Experimental results verify the performance and proper dynamic response of the loss minimization control method with considering self-saturation and cross saturation.

This paper presents a new operation scheme of UPFC to minimize both generation costs and active power losses in a normal operation state of power system. In a normal operation, cost minimization is a matter of primary concern among operating objectives. This paper considers two kinds of costs, generation costs and transmission losses. The total generation cost of active powers can be minimized by optimal power flow, and active power losses in the transmission system can be also minimized by power flow control of UPFC incorporated with minimization of generation costs. In order to determine amounts of active power reference of each UPFC required for the cost minimization, an iterative optimization algorithm based on the power flow calculation using the decoupled UPFC model is proposed. For verification of the proposed method, intensive studies have been performed on a 3-unit 6-bus system equipped with a UPFC.

Power dissipated during test application is substantially higher than power dissipated during functional operation which can decrease the reliability and lead to yield loss. This paper presents a new technique for power minimization during test application in full scan sequential circuits. This paper shows freezing of combinational logic parts during scan shift operation in test mode. The freezing technique leads to power to minimization. Significant power reduction in the scan techniques is achieved on ISCAS 89 benchmarks.

While Logic Based Expert System (LBES) has a merit of rapid and complete inference, it also has a defect of huge knowledge base. Hierarchical LBES (HLBES) replaces the assertion time inference of LBES with the multi-level logic minimization procedure, and it guarantees smaller knowledge base comparing with LBES. This paper has two contributions. The one is proposing so-called fact-minimization procedure which reduces not only the number of facts or measured events but also the size of knowledge base dramatically. The other contribution is application of HLBES and the proposed fact-minimization to the fault diagnosis of power system. The application is successfully performed in the example with the transmission system which takes 72 goals and 352 facts.

In this paper, a novel control algorithm to minimize the power loss of the induction generator for wind power generation system is presented. The proposed method is based on the flux level reduction, where the flux level is computed from the machine model for the optimum d-axis current of the generator. For the vector-controlled induction generator, the d-axis current controls the excitation level in order to minimize the generator loss while the q-axis current controls the generator torque, by which the speed of the induction generator is controlled according to the variation of the wind speed in order to produce the maximum output power. Wind turbine simulator has been implemented in laboratory to validate the theoretical development. The experimental results show that the loss minimization process is more effective at low wind speed and that the percent of power loss saving can approach to 25%. Experimental results are shown to verify the validity of the proposed scheme.

This paper proposes a loss minimization algorithm for doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) by controlling the stator reactive power. The proposed strategy directly controls the rotor current to achieve the operating point of minimum generator loss and maximum power point tracking. The maximum power is obtained by tracking the q-axis rotor current with generator speed variation and the minimum generator loss is achieved by controlling the d-axis rotor current. Experimental results are shown to verify the validity of the proposed scheme.

A vibration power minimization model is developed, based on the mobility matrix method, for a vibration isolation system consisting of a vibrating source placed on an elastic support structure through multiple resilient mounts. This model is applied to investigate the design optimization of an X-Y motion stage-based vibration isolation system used in semiconductor wire-bonding equipment. By varying the stiffness coefficients of the resilient mounts while constraining the dynamic displacement amplitudes of the X-Y motion stage, the total power flow from the X-Y motion stage (the vibrating source) to the equipment table (the elastic support structure) is minimized at each frequency interval in the concerned frequency range for different stiffnesses of the equipment table. The results show that when the equipment table is relatively flexible, the optimal design based on the proposed vibration power inimization model gives significantly little power flow than that obtained using a conventional vibration force minimization model at some critical frequencies. When the equipment table is rigid enough, both models provide almost the same predictions on the total power flow.

This paper proposes a new loss minimization controller (LMC) for induction motor drive. The proposed LMC presents a strategy to minimize the total power losses of induction motor (IM), which is based on simplified equivalent circuit and simplified model of IM. The proposed controller using the field oriented control (FOC) method is to determine an optimal rotor flux for obtaining the minimum total power losses and higher efficiency. Simulation and experimental results are given to validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The placement of the UPFC is the major concern to ensure the full potential of utilization in the transmission network. Voltage stability enhancement with the optimal placement of UPFC using stability index such as modal analysis, Voltage Phasor method is made and the loss minimization including UPFC is formulated as an optimization problem. This paper proposes particle swarm optimization for the exact real power loss minimization including UPFC. The implementation of loss minimization for the optimal location of UPFC was tested with IEEE-14 and IEEE-57 bus system.
