In this article, a soft-switched nonisolated high step-up multi-input dc-dc converter is proposed. The proposed converter has overcome the hard switching problem of the conventional boost three port converter (boost-TPC) by providing zero-voltage-switching ...
In the last decade, the massive penetration of Distributed Generators (DGs) has brought significant technical challenges to all the aspects related to the planning and operation of distribution networks. Thus, smart grid concept has evolved as a new operat ...
The bidirectional LLC resonant converter operated at fixed switching frequency is a preferable candidate for a true dc transformer that does not actively control the power flow. This is due to its naturally stiff voltage ratio regardless of the imposed loa ...
The need to increase efficiency and reduce operating cost of shipboard DC power distribution networks results in a desire to increase the operating voltage of such installations to the medium voltage levels. Devices such as solid state bus-tie switches are ...
Steadily increasing requirements for grid connected converters, their growing unit power and output voltage call for flexible high-power medium-voltage grid emulators. Four-quadrant cascaded H-bridge topology features high output voltage resolution and hig ...
The deexcitation of a synchronous machine has been used for the protection of the power supply based on a diode rectifier in marine dc power distribution networks. The fault current from the generator can be eliminated with the protection method utilizing ...
A closed time-reversal cavity has been considered a purely theoretical concept whose experimental realization was assumed to be impossible. In this paper, we demonstrate that it is, in fact, possible to realize a closed time-reversal cavity using a network ...
The desire to increase the voltage of DC shipboard power distribution networks to the medium voltage level derives from the pressure to reduce the operating costs of such systems by increasing their efficiency. Solid state bus-tie switches are accepted to ...
The modular multilevel converter (MMC) presented in Figure 1 found its place within highvoltage and medium-voltage (MV) applications owing to the possibility of effortlessly meeting the imposed voltage requirements by stacking the so-called submodules (SMs ...
The desire to increase the voltage of DC shipboard power distribution networks to the medium voltage level derives from the pressure to reduce the operating costs of such systems by increasing their efficiency. Solid state bus-tie switches are accepted to ...
