In this research work detailed parallel and series equivalent circuits of a gapped iron-core shunt reactor with discretely distributed gaps are derived. The validity of the recommended equivalent circuits is verified by Finite Element Analysis and laboratory tests. Effects of fringing flux and discretely distributed gaps on inductance parameters and reactor losses are also investigated. Moving Strip Method for discretely distributed gapped shunt reactors is recommended. Two design procedures for shunt reactor with discretely distributed gaps are developed within the scope of this thesis. A simple and practical design approach is also developed which does not need any Finite Element Analysis software. This practical method is very useful for design engineers and researchers. The results of practical design approach are shown to be in good agreement with Finite Element Analysis and experimental work.

Design and implementation of coupled inductor Cuk converter operating in continuous conduction mode Ayhan, Mustafa Tufan; Ersak, Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) The study involves the following stages: First, coupled-inductor and integrated magnetic structure used in Cuk converter circuit topologies are analyzed and the necessary information about these elements in circuit design is gathered. Also, benefits of using these magnetic elements are presented. Secondly; steady-state model, dynamic model and transfer functions of coupled-inductor Cuk converter topology are obtained via state-space averaging method. Third stage deals with determining the design criteria to...
Implementation of sensorless vector control drive with current position estimation Filci, Tayfun; Ertan, Hulusi Bülent; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2016) In this thesis, an algorithm will be developed and implemented online for the estimation of rotor position from the rotor slot harmonics in stator currents. Experiments will be done on an inverter driven induction motor hardware, and the performance of the position detection algorithm will be evaluated in comparison with commercial encoder outputs.
Field oriented control of permanent magnet synchrounous motors using three-level neutral-point-clamped inverter Meşe, Hüseyin; Ersak, Aydın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2012) In this thesis, field oriented control of permanent magnet synchronous motors using three-level neutral-point-clamped inverter is studied. Permanent magnet synchronous motors are used in high performance drive applications. In this study, the permanent magnet synchronous motor is fed by three-level neutral-point-clamped inverter. For three-level neutral-point-clamped inverter different space vector modulation algorithms, which are reported in literature, are analyzed and compared via computer simulations. T...
Beforehand obtaining a safety operation condition by using daily load curves in transient stability and graphical software for transient stability applications Öztop, Celal; Ertaş, Arif; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005) In this thesis, relationship between two most important transient stability indices, critical clearing time and generator rotor angle is examined for one machine-infinite bus system and then extended to the multimachine case and is observed to be linear. By using the linear relationship between critical clearing time and generator rotor angle and utilizing the daily load curve, a new preventive method is proposed. The aim of this method is to make all critical clearing times longer than the relay and circui...
