Single phase inverter is a non-linear load using power electronic components causing distortions in the load voltage and current wave patterns from the sinusoidal waveforms due to harmonics.

LFC regulates the frequency of larger interconnected power systems and keeps the net interchange of power between the pool members at predetermined values for the corresponding changes in load demand. In this paper, the two-area, hydrothermal deregulated power system is considered with Redox Flow Batteries (RFB) in both the areas. RFB is an energy storage device, which converts electrical energy into chemical energy, that is used to meet the sudden requirement of real power load and hence very effective in reducing the peak shoots. With conventional proportional-integral (PI) controller, it is difficult to get the optimum solution. Hence, intelligent techniques are used to tune the PI controller of the LFC to improve the dynamic response. In the family of intelligent techniques, a recent nature inspired algorithm called the Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) gives the global minima solution. The optimal value of the controller is determined by minimizing the ISE. The results show that the proposed FPA tuned PI controller improves the dynamic response of the deregulated system faster than the PI controller for different cases.

Developments in the Power Electronic circuitry have revolutionised the induction motor industry leading to the developments in various control strategies and circuits for motor control. Direct Torque Control (DTC) is one of the excellent control strategies preferred by industries for controlling the torque and flux in an induction machine. The main drawback of DTC is the presence of torque ripple which is slightly more than the acceptable limit. There are various parameters that introduce ripples in the electromagnetic torque, one of them being the type of inverter circuit. There are various types of inverter circuits available and the effect of each of them in the production of torque ripple is different. This work is an attempt to identify the influence of various multilevel inverter circuits on the torque ripple level and to propose the best inverter circuit. The influence of multilevel diode clamped inverter and cascaded H bridge inverter circuits on torque ripple minimization, is analysed using simulation studies for identifying the most suitable multilevel inverter circuit which gives minimum torque ripple. The results obtained from the simulation studies are validated by hardware implementation on 0.75 kW induction motor.展开更多

This paper proposes a new ladder type structure of cascaded three-phase multilevel inverter with reduced number of power semiconductor devices which is used to drive the induction motor. The ultimate aim of the paper is to produce multiple output levels with minimum number of semiconductor devices. This paper uses only 11 switches along with 3 diodes and 4 asymmetrical sources to produce an output voltage of 21 levels. The modulation technique plays a major role in commutation of the switches. Here we implement the multicarrier level shifting pulse width modulation technique to produce the commutation signals for the inverter. The proposed multilevel inverter is used to drive the three-phase induction motor. The mathematical modeling of three-phase induction motor is done using Simulink. Furthermore the PI and fuzzy logic controllers are also used to produce the reference waveform of the level shifting technique which in turn produces the commutation signals of the proposed multilevel converter. The controllers are used to control the speed of the induction motor. The effectiveness of the proposed system is proved with the help of simulation. The simulation is performed in MATLAB/Simulink. From the simulation results, it shows that the proposed multilevel inverter works properly to generate the multilevel output waveform with minimum number of semiconductor devices. The PI and fuzzy logic controller performances are evaluated using the results which indicate that with the help of controllers the harmonics has been reduced and the speed control of induction motor is achieved under different loading conditions.展开更多

文摘Multilevel inverters are gaining popularity in high power applications. This paper proposes a new ladder type structure of cascaded three-phase multilevel inverter with reduced number of power semiconductor devices which is used to drive the induction motor. The ultimate aim of the paper is to produce multiple output levels with minimum number of semiconductor devices. This paper uses only 11 switches along with 3 diodes and 4 asymmetrical sources to produce an output voltage of 21 levels. The modulation technique plays a major role in commutation of the switches. Here we implement the multicarrier level shifting pulse width modulation technique to produce the commutation signals for the inverter. The proposed multilevel inverter is used to drive the three-phase induction motor. The mathematical modeling of three-phase induction motor is done using Simulink. Furthermore the PI and fuzzy logic controllers are also used to produce the reference waveform of the level shifting technique which in turn produces the commutation signals of the proposed multilevel converter. The controllers are used to control the speed of the induction motor. The effectiveness of the proposed system is proved with the help of simulation. The simulation is performed in MATLAB/Simulink. From the simulation results, it shows that the proposed multilevel inverter works properly to generate the multilevel output waveform with minimum number of semiconductor devices. The PI and fuzzy logic controller performances are evaluated using the results which indicate that with the help of controllers the harmonics has been reduced and the speed control of induction motor is achieved under different loading conditions.

文摘During the drilling process,stick-slip vibration of the drill string is mainly caused by the nonlinear friction gen-erated by the contact between the drill bit and the rock.To eliminate the fatigue wear of downhole drilling tools caused by stick-slip vibrations,the Fractional-Order Proportional-Integral-Derivative(FOPID)controller is used to suppress stick-slip vibrations in the drill string.Although the FOPID controller can effectively suppress the drill string stick-slip vibration,its structure isflexible and parameter setting is complicated,so it needs to use the cor-responding machine learning algorithm for parameter optimization.Based on the principle of torsional vibration,a simplified model of multi-degree-of-freedom drill string is established and its block diagram is designed.The continuous nonlinear friction generated by cutting rock is described by the LuGre friction model.The adaptive learning strategy of genetic algorithm(GA),particle swarm optimization(PSO)and particle swarm optimization improved(IPSO)by arithmetic optimization(AOA)is used to optimize and adjust the controller parameters,and the drill string stick-slip vibration is suppressed to the greatest extent.The results show that:When slight drill string stick-slip vibration occurs,the FOPID controller optimized by machine learning algorithm has a good effect on suppressing drill string stick-slip vibration.However,the FOPID controller cannot get the drill string system which has fallen into serious stick-slip vibration(stuck pipe)out of trouble,and the machine learning algorithm is required to mark a large amount of data on adjacent Wells to train the model.Set a reasonable range of drilling parameters(weight on bit/drive torque)in advance to avoid severe stick-slip vibration(stuck pipe)in the drill string system.

文摘This study focuses on a graphical approach to determine the robust stabilizing regions of fractional-order PIλ(proportional integration) controllers for fractional-order systems with time-delays. By D-decomposition technique, the existence conditions and calculating method of the real root boundary(RRB) curves, complex root boundary(CRB) curves and infinite root boundary(IRB)lines are investigated for a given stability degree. The robust stabilizing regions in terms of the RRB curves, CRB curves and IRB lines are identified by the proposed criteria in this paper. Finally, two illustrative examples are given to verify the effectiveness of this graphical approach for different stability degrees.
文摘Nowadays,quadcopters are presented in many life applications which require the performance of automatic takeoff,trajectory tracking,and automatic landing.Thus,researchers are aiming to enhance the performance of these vehicles through low-cost sensing solutions and the design of executable and robust control techniques.Due to high nonlinearities,strong couplings and under-actuation,the control design process of a quadcopter is a rather challenging task.Therefore,the main objective of this work is demonstrated through two main aspects.The first is the design of an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system(ANFIS)controller to develop the attitude and altitude of a quadcopter.The second is to create a systematic framework for implementing flight controllers in embedded systems.A suitable model of the quadcopter is also developed by taking into account aerodynamics effects.To show the effectiveness of the ANFIS approach,the performance of a well-trained ANFIS controller is compared to a classical proportional-derivative(PD)controller and a properly tuned fuzzy logic controller.The controllers are compared and tested under several different flight conditions including the capability to reject external disturbances.In the first stage,performance evaluation takes place in a nonlinear simulation environment.Then,the ANFIS-based controllers alongside attitude and position estimators,and precision landing algorithms are implemented for executions in a real-time autopilot.In precision landing systems,an IR-camera is used to detect an IR-beacon on the ground for precise positioning.Several flight tests of a quadcopter are conducted for results validation.Both simulations and experiments demonstrated superior results for quadcopter stability in different flight scenarios.
文摘3-RRR planar parallel robots are utilized for solving precise material-handling problems in industrial automation applications.Thus,robust and stable control is required to deliver high accuracy in comparison to the state of the art.The operation of the mechanism is achieved based on three revolute(3-RRR)joints which are geometrically designed using an open-loop spatial robotic platform.The inverse kinematic model of the system is derived and analyzed by using the geometric structure with three revolute joints.The main variables in our design are the platform base positions,the geometry of the joint angles,and links of the 3-RRR planar parallel robot.These variables are calcula ted based on Cayley-Menger determinants and bilateration to det ermine the final position of the platform when moving and placing objects.Additionally,a proposed fractional order proportional integral derivative(FOPID)is optimized using the bat optimization algorithm to control the path tracking of the center of the 3-RRR planar parallel robot.The design is compared with the state of the art and simulated using the Matlab environment to validate the effectiveness of the proposed controller.Furthermore,real-time implementation has been tested to prove that the design performance is practical.
文摘The Electromechanical Oxygen Regulator(EMOR)is a new type of aviator oxygen equipment.Positive pressure refers to the pressure difference between the breath pressure and the ambient pressure during pressurized oxygen supply.The phenomenon of positive pressure fluctuation was believed to reduce the system performance.The current open-loop control method cannot solve this problem.In this paper,the mathematical model was established and main factors were analyzed.By combining experimental research and simulation calculation,it was determined that pressure fluctuation was caused by inlet pressure and diaphragm deformation together.With the increase of pulmonary ventilation volume,the influence of inlet pressure on fluctuation decreases gradually,while the proportion of diaphragm deformation increases rapidly.A closed-loop control strategy of Proportional Resonant with Feedforward Compensation(PRFC)was proposed to solve the problem and control parameters were obtained through co-simulation.The effectiveness of the control strategy was verified by experiments.The results show that the control strategy can enhance the anti-disturbance ability of the system and significantly reduce the pressure fluctuation range,which is beneficial to improving the overall system performance.
文摘Proportion resonant(PR)controllers are able to achieve zero steady-state error for AC input signals and are widely used for simplifying control systems in the stationary reference frame.However,power decoupling in the stationary reference frame with a PR controller has not been investigated thoroughly.Based on the complex vector model of a grid-connected inverter(GCI),this paper deduces theoretically the power coupling relationship of GCI with the traditional PR current controller.A modified PR controller is provided for achieving the power decoupling,and the design method of the controller is presented.Simulation and experimental results verify that there is coupling between active and reactive power using the traditional PR controller and the proposed method can realize the power decoupling.

文摘Based on a linearized TCP/AQM model,a new proportional integral(PI)controller design approach is proposed.This analytical approach applies H_(∞) optimization and internal model control(IMC)theory to design active queue management(AQM)routers that support transmission control protocol(TCP)flows.The most important feature of the proposed scheme lies in that it can be explicitly tuned with a single parameter for the trade-off between performance and stability of the AQM control system.It is thus flexible and easy to use in design.The proposed method and the designed PI controller are verified and compared with other existing AQM schemes using ns-2 simulator.The results show the advantages of the new PI controller design approach for AQM routers supporting TCP flows.
