Advancing technologies in distributed electrical generation and increasing amount of required electricity make electrical systems more complicated. Thus, the number of buses has increased and the size of incidence matrix for electrical power flow calculation has expanded. Hence, investigation and performance analysis on different solvers are needed. In this thesis, a performance comparison between iterative solvers for electrical power flow is studied. These solvers are Newton-Raphson, Fast-Decoupled and Newton-Krylov Spaces methods. Besides, the effect of parallel programming in Newton-Krylov Spaces Method is also investigated.

Modular Heat Sinks for Enhanced Thermal Management of Electronics Hoque, Muhammad Jahidul; Günay, Ahmet Alperen; Stillwell, Andrew; Gurumukhi, Yashraj; Pilawa-Podgurski, Robert C. N.; Miljkovic, Nenad (2021-06-01) Power electronics are vital for the generation, conversion, transmission, and distribution of electrical energy. Improving the efficiency, power density, and reliability of power electronics is an important challenge that can be addressed with electrothermal codesign and optimization. Current thermal management approaches utilize metallic heat sinks (HSs), resulting in parasitic load generation due to different potentials between electronic components on the printed circuit board (PCB). To enable electrical...
Design and Performance Analysis of a Grid Connected PWM-VSI System Kantar, Emre; Usluer, S. Nadir; Hava, Ahmet Masum (2013-11-30) Pulse-width modulation (PWM) voltage source inverters (VSIs) are favorable interface devices to the power grid for renewable energy systems. This paper deals with the design of the LCL-filter and inverter for the grid-connected VSI. A complete design procedure for both reactive and passive components of LCL-filter is demonstrated with a new iterative approach in selection of the filter inductors. The design process for a two-level VSI is clearly illustrated through an example and the dynamic response is inv...
Simulation of Voltage Sag Events in Distribution Networks and Utility-Side Mitigation Methods Sezgin, Mustafa Selim; Polat, Onder; Yumak, Kahraman; Gül, Ömer; Atilla, Necip Erman (2017-12-02) As industrialization and automation processes continue to expand, power quality parameters and voltage sags in particular become more important. Sensitive equipment trips due to voltage sags cause enormous financial loss in the industrial sector. Consequently, in consultation with AF Turkey, Trakya Electricity Distribution Company (TREDAS) began an R&D project on voltage sags funded by the Turkish Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA). The project aims to characterize voltage sags and perform research i...
Fully Integrated Autonomous Interface With Maximum Power Point Tracking for Energy Harvesting TEGs With High Power Capacity Tabrizi, Hamed Osouli; Jayaweera, Herath M. P. C.; Muhtaroglu, Ali (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-05-01) In this article, a novel fully autonomous and integrated power management interface circuit is introduced for energy harvesting using thermoelectric generators (TEGs) to supply power to Internet of Thing nodes. The circuit consists of a self-starting dc & x2013;dc converter based on a dual-phase charge pump with LC-tank oscillator, a digital MPPT unit, and a 1-V LDO regulator. The novel maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm avoids open-circuit state, and accommodates varying input power and ultra-lo...
Improved Situational Awareness for Power Distribution Systems Based on WLAV Estimator and Direct Load Flow Solution Parlaktuna, Kemal; Dursun, Erk; Cinalioglu, Mustafa Cihan; Göl, Murat (2022-01-01) With high renewable penetration, increasing popularity of electrical vehicles and rapid growth of electrical system especially in urban areas, modern distribution power systems are becoming more complex. Having situational awareness of the system is crucial for system operator both to have knowledge on the current state of the system and where to improve infrastructure. In this paper an application of a situational awareness tool for an active distribution power system is discussed. Improvements on the info...
