This paper attempts to present the devising of the Matrix converter and an AC-DC-AC converter along with their working principle and control mechanisms. Both of these converters are AC-AC converters and are primarily used in cases where frequency of the out-put AC signal needs to be regulated with respect to the input. The principle of superposition is used by the matrix converter and is deployed...
This paper presents a review on recent developments in BLDC motor controllers and studies on four quadrant operation of BLDC drive along with active PFC. The main areas reviewed include Sensor-less control, Direct Torque Control (DTC), Fuzzy logic control, controller for four quadrant operation and active Power Factor Corrected (PFC) converter fed BLDC motor drive. A comprehensive study has been done...
Modeling and simulation studies of an induction motor always help in identifying the parameter to characterize the asymmetrical fault in the machine. Hence in this paper, an air gap eccentric induction motor is modeled using multiple coupled circuit approach and 2D-Modified Winding Function Theory. The machine model is simulated under different eccentricity conditions to obtain the motor current spectra,...
Condition monitoring units are employed in industries to monitor the health of the machines continuously. Air gap eccentricity fault is one of the asymmetrical faults which can result in the machine failure. Motor Current Signature Analysis and Vibration Analysis are the two most popular methods used for eccentricity fault detection in the induction motor. In this paper, a study conducted on an induction...
Non invasive fault detection unit for an induction motor has become an integral part of industrial drives. As the current is the primary quantity to get affected by the non uniform air gap flux, Motor Current Signature Analysis is preferred as compared to vibration analysis for mixed eccentricity fault detection in an induction motor. In this paper, Power Spectral Density analysis is performed on...
BLDC motors have been gaining attention from various industrial and household appliance manufacturers, because of its high efficiency, high power density and low maintenance cost. After many research and developments in the fields of magnetic materials and power electronics, their applications to electric drives have increased to a significant extent. In this paper, the modeling of Brushless DC motor...
Distributed generation (DG) sources are becoming more prominent in distribution systems due to increased demand for the electrical energy. The locations and capacities of DG sources will have an impact on system losses, voltage profile characteristics of distribution network. This paper presents a heuristic approach for selection of optimal location and determination of optimal capacity of DG sources...
This paper presents the design of an hybrid scheme of wavelet transforms and an adaptive Fourier filtering technique for on line fault detection and phasor estimation to fast distance protection of transmission lines. The wavelet transform is used as a signal processing tool. The sampled voltage and current signals at the relay location are decomposed using wavelet transform-Multi Resolution Analysis...
The deregulation regime has given lot of scope for independent power producers to feed power to the utility nearest to the load center. This feature provides opportunities for lot of improvements in distribution system operation. In this paper investigations have been done for integrated operation of the practical MRPL industrial distribution plant having its own captive generation to act as distributed...
