Optimal voltage control processes in active distribution networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Dan-Cristian Tomozei, Konstantina Christakou

Typical optimal controls of power systems, such as scheduling of generators, voltage control, losses reduction, have been so far commonly investigated in the domain of high-voltage transmission networks. However, during the past years, the increased connec ...

Static and recursive PMU-based state estimation processes for transmission and distribution power grids

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Lorenzo Zanni, Styliani Sarri

In the operation of power systems, the knowledge of the system state is required by several fundamental functions, such as security assessment, voltage control and stability analysis. By making reference to the static state of the system represented by the ...

Analog microelectronic emulation for dynamic power system computation

Ira Nagel

Power system dynamic simulators can be classified according to multiple criteria, including speed, precision, cost and modularity (topology, characteristics and model). Existing simulators are based on time-consuming numeric algorithms, which provide very ...

A DC power flow extension

Maher Kayal, Theodoros Kyriakidis

In this work an extension of the well-known DC power flow method is presented. A normal DC power flow of the system is executed to determine voltage angles and a novel derivation of voltage amplitudes is devised. The latter is rigorously formulated and eig ...

New Control Strategy for Three Level NPC Converter Connected to the Grid

Alfred Rufer, Aziza Benaboud

The aim of the present paper is to describe a new control strategy for a three level NPC converter connected to the grid, characterized by its high efficiency. This efficiency is achieved using a square wave modulation or SWM, which has the advantage of a ...
