Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 6Distribution Automation Effects on Reliability During Major Contingencies(IEEE Computer Society help@computer.org, 2018-05) Yoldaş, Yeliz; Onen, Ahmet; Alan, İrfan; Broadwater, Robert P.Distribution automation affects reliability by providing faster restoration ability. In this study, the effect of distribution automation on radial distribution circuits during substation failures at peak load is investigated. The ultimate goal is to compare circuit automation to manual operation, where the comparison evaluates planning criteria reliability for customer interruption hours. The results show that distribution automation can improve reliability measurements such as SAIDI, SAIFI and CAIDI. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Design 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.
