An improved method for MPPT for wind solutions using Newton Raphson technique with stability analysis of the optimal power curve
The increasing stress on the rapidly diminishing conventional sources of energy like coal and fossil fuels and the devastating ramifications posed by their use in energy production has compelled man to look for cleaner and voluminous altern...
THIPWM technique applied to three level ANPC converter for grid tied PV applications
In recent years, the majority of the research has focused on grid-tied transformerless PV inverters, more capable than traditional grid-tied line transformer-based PV inverters, but more critical from a power quality point of view, especial...
Optimal generation and reactive power scheduling of plug-in electric vehicles in V2G environment
With the expected surge of Electric Vehicles (EV) in the market in the near future, a threat to the grid is anticipated. Introducing EVs in the grid serves as an additional load thus arising the need for increased generation which increases...
Principal component based passive islanding detection technique for distributed generations
This paper presents a new technique for islanding detection using the phase angle between positive-sequence voltage and current signals. In order to discriminate between islanding and non-islanding situations, the phase angle derived at the...
Active and reactive power control in three phase solar PV inverter using modified IC method
With the increment of solar photovoltaic installation in power grid, solar power penetration level, over loading of grid and power fluctuation are becoming prominent issues. To address the problems, active and reactive power fed to the grid...
Tuning the resonance frequency of metamaterial nanoparticles: Silver core and PVP cladding
Silver nanoparticles are often used as optical resonator or scatterer in different opto-electrical devices. But being a metal, high ohmic loss will occur because absorption and scattering both peaks arises at the same resonating frequency. ...
ANN based controller to mitigate soiling loss on solar panels
The hasty augmentation in PV cells technology made the installation and utilization of solar power very trouble-free. The solar cells fabricated by semiconductors, has reduced the efficiency of PV systems to 15-20%. Further, the performance...
Nanofiltration mediated process for ethanol fermentation of biomass hydrolysates by wild-type yeasts
Wild type ethanologenic microorganisms display very low ethanol yields on xylose in lignocellulosic hydrolysate due to low tolerance to ethanol and other metabolic inhibitors present in hydrolysates. The major thrust of research on xylose c...
Analysis of modified ROCOF relays for islanding detection of distribution systems with DFIG
Wind power has evolved as a primary source of sustainable energy for bulk generation as well as small scale units. Power distribution systems with wind generation units like Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) are bound by the standards l...
A simulation study of p-i-n amorphous silicon photovoltaic cell using ZnO nano rods
Thinning down the active absorber layer is the current trend in solar cell technology. The thinner absorber layer has two main advantages (i) it reduces the material consumption and (ii) minimizes the time and energy required in production....
