Investigation of modular multilevel converter control methods
Ertürk, Feyzullah; Hava, Ahmet Masum; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
The thesis focuses on the analysis and control of modular multilevel converter (MMC). The control structures used in the control of MMC are presented. Outer control loops of the converter such as output current, DC-link voltage, and power controls as well as inner control structures unique to the converter such as circulating current control and sorting algorithm based submodule voltage balancing are investigated. In addition, switching methods proposed for MMC are also described. These control and switchin...

Adaptive control of DC link current in current source converter based STATCOM for improving its power losses
Karaduman, Ferdi; Ermiş, Muammer; Bilgin, Hazım Faruk; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2012)
In conventional three-phase PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) current source converter based STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) applications, DC link current is kept constant at a predefined value and the reactive power of STATCOM is controlled by varying modulation index. This control strategy causes unnecessary power losses especially when the reactive power of STATCOM is low. For this purpose, in order to reduce the active power drawn by STATCOM, the modulation index can be maximized by adjusting DC lin...
Incorporation of DSSC in real time congestion management
Günay, Ramazan; Göl, Murat; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2018)
Congestion became an inseparable part of power system operation, after deregulation of the monopolistic electric market. Presence of congestion causes rise of local market powers, and hence it is avoided during day-ahead planning. However, it is possible to encounter congestion during real-time operation because of the uncertain behavior of the loads. Although, the congestion can be detected in real-time, its management is not trivial as it requires change of topology or generation dispatch. This work propo...
Investigation of turbulence models used in automotive industry
Taştan, Umur; Çetinkaya, Tahsin Ali; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2011)
In this study; reliability and performance of turbulence models used in CFD softwares to determine the aerodynamics of passenger cars, are tested and compared. In the analyses, drag forces acting on the car, pressure and velocity distributions and wake flow patterns are determined by using several turbulence models with a commercial software Fluent. Calculated results compared to the experimental results given in the literature. It is observed that, turbulence models give relatively reliable results for det...
