Energy Efficiency of Reactive Dynamic Compensators

A parameter that allows an evaluation of power quality transmitted, or distributed, between energy source and the final user is electric system power factor. Among other aspects, a bigger power factor, close to unit value, relieves operational conditions of lines and cables, besides, it improves feeder＇s voltage behavior. Due to load variation along the day, the dynamic compensation of power factor allows maintaining this parameter close to the ideal. This paper brings a study about a reactive dynamic compensator based on the voltage control in a capacitive element, varying the reactive energy in accordance with the system demand, everything from the energy efficiency point of view. In distribution systems, the losses due to this variable compensation can be lower than in other compensation methods and also the voltage presents a better behavior, justifying its application.

Composite nonlinear feedback control for cooperative output regulation of linear multi-agent systems by a distributed dynamic compensator

This paper investigates the cooperative output regulation problem of linear multi-agent systems with a linear exogenous system(exo-system).The network topology is described by a directed graph which contains a directed spanning tree with the exo-system as the root.Aiming at improving the transient performance of the multi-agent systems,a dynamic control law is developed by the composite nonlinear feedback(CNF)control technique.In particular,a distributed dynamic compensator independent of the interaction on the compensator states of agents among the network,is adopted.The solvability condition for the cooperative output regulation problem is obtained using the small-gain theory,which will not be destroyed by adding the nonlinear feedback part of the CNF control law.It is also shown that in the case with the exo-system not diverging exponentially,the small-gain condition can be guaranteed using the low-gain design.Finally,simulation results illustrate that the proposed CNF control law improves the transient performance for the cooperative output regulation of linear multi-agent systems.

In order to correct the test error caused by the dynamic characteristics of pressure sensor and avoid the influence of the error of sensor＇s dynamic model on compensation results,a dynamic compensation method of the pressure sensor is presented,which is based on quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization（QPSO）algorithm and the mean square error（MSE）.By using this method,the inverse model of the sensor is built and optimized and then the coefficients of the optimal compensator are got.This method is verified by the dynamic calibration with shock tube and the dynamic characteristics of the sensor before and after compensation are analyzed in time domain and frequency domain.The results show that the working bandwidth of the sensor is extended effectively.This method can reduce dynamic measuring error and improve test accuracy in actual measurement experiments.

APPROACH TO IMPROVEMENT OF ROBOT TRAJECTORY ACCURACY BY DYNAMIC COMPENSATION

Some dynamic factors, such as inertial forces and friction, may affect therobot trajectory accuracy. But these effects are not taken into account in robot motion controlschemes. Dynamic control methods, on the other hand, require the dynamic model of robot and theimplementation of new type controller. A method to improve robot trajectory accuracy by dynamiccompensation in robot motion control system is proposed. The dynamic compensation is applied as anadditional velocity feedforward and a multilayer neural network is employed to realize the robotinverse dynamics. The complicated dynamic parameter identification problem becomes a learningprocess of neural network connecting weights under supervision. The finite Fourier series is used toactivate each actuator of robot joints for obtaining training samples. Robot control system,consisting of an industrial computer and a digital motion controller, is implemented. The system isof open architecture with velocity feedforward function. The proposed method is not model-based andcombines the advantages of close-loop position control and computed torque control. Experimentalresults have shown that the method is validatities to improve the robot trajectory accuracy.

A Power Reduction Method for Pilot Channel of LEO Satellite Based on Dynamic Compensation

Since the lower power requirement of code division multiple access(CDMA) than that of other multiple access, the CDMA technology is suitable to be used in low earth orbit(LEO) satellite communication system whose space power is limited due to the small size of satellite. The pilot channel of CDMA technology is very important for earth mobile station(EMS) in LEO system to recover carrier and code, but the power requirement of pilot channel is very higher than that of other channels. In this paper, a power reduction method for pilot channel is proposed. By the new method, the power of pilot channel transmitted from LEO satellite is reduced to a lower level. For improving the signal to noise ratio(SNR) of pilot channel with lower power, coherent integration is employed in EMS at the pre-processing stage. Considering the high dynamic situation of LEO satellite, the long period of time for integration will deteriorate the receiving performance of EMS, therefore, a dynamic compensation module is added to carrier tracking loop against the high dynamic. Meanwhile, the transfer function of the new tracking loop and the condition for steadystate zero error are deduced. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate effectiveness of the proposed approach.

Dynamic Velocity Feed-Forward Compensation Control with RBF-NN System Identification for Industrial Robots

A dynamic velocity feed-forward compensation （RBF-NN） dynamic model identification was presented for control （DVFCC） approach with RBF neural network the adaptive trajectory tracking of industrial robots. The proposed control approach combined the advantages of traditional feedback closed-loop position control and computed torque control based on inverse dynamic model. The feed-forward compensator used a nominal robot dynamics as accurate dynamic model and on-line identification with RBF-NN as uncertain part to improve dynamic modeling accu- racy. The proposed compensation was applied as velocity feed-forward by an inverse velocity controller that can con- vert torque signal into velocity in the standard industrial controller. Then, the need for a torque control interface was avoided in the real-time dynamic control of industrial robot. The simulations and experiments were carried out on a gas cutting manipulator. The results show that the proposed control approach can reduce steady-state error, suppress overshoot and enhance tracking accuracy and efficiency in joint space and Cartesian space, especially under high- speed condition.

We present a study of the dynamic behavior of a two-sublattice spin-5/2 Ising model with bilinear and crystal-field interactions in the presence of a time-dependent oscillating external magnetic field on alternating layers of a hexagonal lattice by using the Glauber-type stochastic dynamics.The lattice is formed by alternate layers of spins σ=5/2 and S=5/2.We employ the Glauber transition rates to construct the mean-field dynamic equations.First,we investigate the time variations of the average sublattice magnetizations to find the phases in the system and then the thermal behavior of the dynamic sublattice magnetizations to characterize the nature（first-or second-order） of the phase transitions and to obtain the dynamic phase transition（DPT） points.We also study the thermal behavior of the dynamic total magnetization to find the dynamic compensation temperature and to determine the type of the dynamic compensation behavior.We present the dynamic phase diagrams,including the dynamic compensation temperatures,in nine different planes.The phase diagrams contain seven different fundamental phases,thirteen different mixed phases,in which the binary and ternary combination of fundamental phases and the compensation temperature or the L-type behavior strongly depend on the interaction parameters.

Correction of sensor’s dynamic error caused by system limitations

The method based on particle swarm optimization(PSO)integrated with functional link articial neural network(FLANN)for correcting dynamic characteristics of sensor is used to reduce sensor’s dynamic error caused by its system limitations.Combining the advantages of PSO and FLANN,with this method a dynamic compensator can be realized without knowing the dynamic model of the sensor.According to the input and output of the sensor and the reference model,the weights of the network trained were used to initialize one particle station of the whole particle swarm when the training of the FLANN had been finished.Then PSO algorithm was applied,and the global best particle station of the particle swarm was the parameters of the compensator.The feasibility of dynamic compensation method is tested.Simulation results from simulator of sensor show that the results after being compensated have given a good description to input signals.

Because of the rapid growth of new energy and the accompanying considerable uncertainty in the power market,the demand for flexibility in a power sys-tem has risen sharply.In the meantime,the market structure of auxiliary services has changed,resulting in market participants(MPs)benefiting less than expected from providing flexible services.To encourage MPs to provide flexibility,this study proposes a dynamic design framework for an auxiliary service compensation mech-anism.To evaluate the proposed framework,a case study is conducted,examining a peak-shaving service in Liao-ning province in northeast China.First,the operational status and limitations of the typical product,the peak-shaving service,in China’s flexibility auxiliary ser-vices market are analyzed.Then,taking into considera-tion the time value of the flexible products provided by the MPs,a dynamic mechanism for hierarchical compensa-tion of flexibility auxiliary service costs is proposed,and a mathematical model aimed at optimizing the MPs’com-prehensive income is constructed.The results show that,compared with the existing traditional mechanism,the proposed method can effectively guarantee fair remu-neration for the flexibility provider,while easing the tense supply-demand relationship in the flexibility market.Index Terms—Power system flexibility,auxiliary ser-vices market,peak shaving auxiliary service,differenti-ated operation scenario,dynamic hierarchical compensa-tion mechanism.

Impact of Wind Integration on Transient Voltage Stability in Regional Grid

With the increasing development of wind power,the scale of wind farms and unit capacity of wind turbines are getting larger and larger,and the impact of wind integration on power systems cannot be ignored.However,in most cases,the areas with a plenty of wind resources do not have strong grid structures.Furthermore,the characteristics of wind power dictate that wind turbines need to absorb reactive power during operation.Because of the strong correlation between voltage stability and systems' reactive power,the impacts of wind integration on voltage stability has become an important issue.Based on the power system simulation software DIgSILENT and combined analysis of actual practice,this paper investigates the impacts of two types of wind farms on voltage stability:namely a type of wind farms which are constituted by constant speed wind turbines based on common induction generators(IG) and another type of wind farms which are constituted by VSCF wind turbines based on doubly-fed induction generators(DFIG).Through investigation the critical fault clearing time is presented for different outputs of wind farms.Moreover,the impacts of static var compensator(SVC) and static synchronous compensator(STATCOM) on transient voltage stability in IG-based wind farms are studied to improve the security and stability of the Jiangsu power grid after the integration of large scale wind power.

Steady-state Voltage Security-constrained Optimal Frequency Control for Weak HVDC Sending-end AC Power Systems

Due to the fact that a high share of renewable energy sources(RESs)are connected to high-voltage direct current(HVDC)sending-end AC power systems,the voltage and frequency regulation capabilities of HVDC sending-end AC power systems have diminished.This has resulted in potential system operating problems such as overvoltage and overfrequency,which occur simultaneously when block faults exist in the HVDC link.In this study,a steady-state voltage security-constrained optimal frequency control method for weak HVDC sending-end AC power systems is proposed.The integrated virtual inertia control of RESs is employed for system frequency regulation.Additional dynamic reactive power compensation devices are utilized to control the voltage of all nodes meet voltage security constraints.Then,an optimization model that simultaneously considers the frequency and steady-state voltage security constraints for weak HVDC sending-end AC power systems is established.The optimal control scheme with the minimum total cost of generation tripping and additional dynamic reactive power compensation required is obtained through the optimization solution.Simulations are conducted on a modified IEEE 9-bus test system and practical Qing-Yu line commutated converter based HVDC(LCC-HVDC)sending-end AC power system to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Algorithm and experiments of six-dimensional force/torque dynamic measurements based on a Stewart platform

Stewart platform(SP) is a promising choice for large component alignment, and interactive force measurements are a novel and significant approach for high-precision assemblies. The designed position and orientation(P&O) adjusting platform, based on an SP for force/torquedriven(F/T-driven) alignment, can dynamically measure interactive forces. This paper presents an analytical algorithm of measuring six-dimensional F/T based on the screw theory for accurate determination of external forces during alignment. Dynamic gravity deviations were taken into consideration and a compensation model was developed. The P&O number was optimized as well.Given the specific appearance of repeated six-dimensional F/T measurements, an approximate cone shape was used for spatial precision analysis. The magnitudes and directions of measured F/Ts can be evaluated by a set of standards, in terms of accuracy and repeatability. Experiments were also performed using a known applied load, and the proposed analytical algorithm was able to accurately predict the F/T. A comparison between precision analysis experiments with or without assembly fixtures was performed. Experimental results show that the measurement accuracy varies under different P&O sets and higher loads lead to poorer accuracy of dynamic gravity compensation. In addition, the preferable operation range has been discussed for high-precision assemblies with smaller deviations.

Observer-based motion axis control for hydraulic actuation systems

Unknown dynamics including mismatched mechanical dynamics(i.e.,parametric uncertainties,unmodeled friction and external disturbances)and matched actuator dynamics(i.e.,pressure and flow characteristic uncertainties)broadly exist in hydraulic actuation systems(HASs),which can hinder the achievement of high-precision motion axis control.To surmount the practical issue,an observer-based control framework with a simple structure and low computation is developed for HASs.First,a simple observer is utilized to estimate mismatched and matched unknown dynamics for feedforward compensation.Then combining the backstepping design and adaptive control,an appropriate observer-based composite controller is provided,in which nonlinear feedback terms with updated gains are adopted to further improve the tracking accuracy.Moreover,a smooth nonlinear filter is introduced to shun the“explosion of complexity”and attenuate the impact of sensor noise on control performance.As a result,this synthesized controller is more suitable for practical use.Stability analysis uncovers that the developed controller assures the asymptotic convergence of the tracking error.The merits of the proposed approach are validated via comparative experiment results applied in an HAS with an inertial load as well.
