    Efficiency and Cost Evaluation of Distribution Systems Based on Multiple Time Points
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015-07) Onen, Ahmet
    Phase balancing can offer planning engineers a lowcost means of reducing operating costs, improving efficiency in electric power systems. In general, utilities make phase balancing based on peak load by thinking that is the worst case scenario, but every time is not the case. In this paper, time varying phase balancing algorithm is proposed to investigate the effect of hourly phase balancing for all year (8760 hour for a year) and also evaluate system efficiency and cost saving for all hours. Additionally, it is important for the planning engineers to estimate losses accurately to make phase moves, and the peak load does not always provide the most efficient phase moves among the hours in year. In this paper, there different scenarios will be compared; base case, phase balancing based on peak load, and hourly time varying phase balancing. These scenarios will be compared based on loss reduction, and cost saving with Locational Marginal Price (LMP) to provide the planning engineers ideas about effective power system planning. © 2017 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Design and Control of a Single Phase DC/Rectified AC/AC Inverter for Low THD Applications
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018-10) Tekgun, Burak; Tekgun, Didem; Alan, İrfan; Badawy, Mohamed O.
    In this paper, a single phase DC/Rectified AC/AC (DC/RAC/AC) inverter is analyzed and compared to classical single phase PWM inverters. A traditional AC power supply (PS) system consists of a DC/DC converter, a cascaded H-bridge inverter, and a passive filter to generate the sinusoidal output voltage. The presented DC/RAC/AC inverter has a similar structure; however, the control of the cascaded units differ. The presented method generates rectified sine wave at the output of the DC/DC converter unit and the H-bridge inverter alternates the rectified sine wave to generate the full sine wave without having an additional output filter; hence, the switching losses at the H-bridge inverter is limited to the line frequency (50-60 Hz). Moreover, the bulk DC bus capacity at the output of the DC/DC converter is reduced significantly. Therefore, the power consumed by the passive elements are minimized. The circuit modes of operation are analyzed and the system is simulated in Matlab/Simulink environment for both traditional and proposed topologies. Results show that the proposed system is superior to the traditional one in terms of efficiency, generated THD with a simplified control structure, and it offers a reduced system size and cost. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
