Power Quality Improvement in Distributed Generation System under varying Load Conditions using PWM and Hysteresis Controller

Published Vijayshree G1, Sumathi S2, RNSIT, Bangalore,Karnataka,India(1). RNSIT, Bangalore,Karnataka, India(2) Abstract – This paper proposes a power system network modeled using a microgrid, integrated with wind and solar photovoltaic (PV) resources, along with the battery energy storage system (BESS) connected to the three-phase grid feeding the linear and nonlinear load. The simulation is carried outContinue reading “Power Quality Improvement in Distributed Generation System under varying Load Conditions using PWM and Hysteresis Controller”

Upstream Frequency Disturbance

Published by Unipower AB, Metallgatan 4C, 44132 Alingsås, Sweden. Email: info@unipower.se We have received questions about disturbances in the grid. Do we have any examples? Here is an interesting example showing how disturbances spread through the network. A major frequency disturbance occured in Scandinavia on December 1, 2005. In this comparison we have compared measuring dataContinue reading “Upstream Frequency Disturbance”

Evaluating Direction of Harmonics – Power Harmonics

Published by Unipower AB, Metallgatan 4C, 44132 Alingsås, Sweden. Email: info@unipower.se One important issue is how to trace the source of harmonics. The example below shows harmonic filters connected until 11.00 and there is no voltage distortion as expected. After 11.00 the filters were disconnected due to a fault and voltage harmonics can be seen.Continue reading “Evaluating Direction of Harmonics – Power Harmonics”
