Power quality indices measurement using the S-transform
The paper presents the S-transform (ST) technique as a new tool for power quality indices measurement. A key feature of the ST is its accurate time-frequency (amplitude and phase) domain. With this feature, it is possible to redefine the calculation of the power quality indices in the ST domain based on the harmonic content of the signals. In addition, using the time information provided by this ...

A high power factor and low crest factor Cuk converter for lighting systems
This paper deals with the analysis, design and simulation of power factor corrected (PFC), low crest factor (CF) electronic ballast for a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL). The proposed electronic ballast employs a Cuk buck-boost AC-DC converter as a power factor regulator (PFR) operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). In the proposed electronic ballast, a half bridge series resonant ...

An improved power quality boost–flyback SSIPP fed BLDC motor drive
This paper presents a single–stage isolated power factor corrected power supply (SSIPP) fed permanent magnet brushless DC (BLDC) motor drive. An advantage of fast voltage regulation with single voltage control loop of SSIPP is utilised to develop a power factor correction (PFC) based BLDC motor drive. The speed of BLDC motor is controlled by varying the DC link voltage of the voltage source ...

Active waveshaping of AC mains current in direct torque-controlled permanent magnet synchronous motor drive
This paper deals with the power quality improvement of AC mains in Direct Torque-Controlled (DTC) permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive using active wave shaping techniques. For this purpose, different topologies for active wave shaping of AC mains current in DTC-based PMSM drive such as single- and two-switch boost power factor correction (PFC) AC–DC converter, asymmetrical two-switch ...

Power quality evaluation in deregulated power system using matrix method
Power quality has emerged as a challenging area in the context of deregulation, wherein electricity distribution buyers and sellers carry out mutually agreed-upon exchanges. A market for active power and reactive power is installed in many places as a result of a deregulation process. However, the power-quality-related market is in the developing stage. For a given site, the power quality ...

Combined Heat and Power (CHP) essentials
'CHP essentials' introduces the concept of power and heat 'production possibility sets', starting at the cradle of CHP, i.e., the thermal power generation plant. The latter always occasions 'fatal' heat that is either recovered (the 'merit' of CHP) or wasted (condensing). This split paves the way to defining the production possibility sets of CHP plants, shown for steam turbines, internal ...
