Model Predictive Control of High Power Converters and Industrial Drives
Author: Tobias GeyerPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119010861
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 576
Book Description
In this original book on model predictive control (MPC) for power electronics, the focus is put on high-power applications with multilevel converters operating at switching frequencies well below 1 kHz, such as medium-voltage drives and modular multi-level converters. Consisting of two main parts, the first offers a detailed review of three-phase power electronics, electrical machines, carrier-based pulse width modulation, optimized pulse patterns, state-of-the art converter control methods and the principle of MPC. The second part is an in-depth treatment of MPC methods that fully exploit the performance potential of high-power converters. These control methods combine the fast control responses of deadbeat control with the optimal steady-state performance of optimized pulse patterns by resolving the antagonism between the two. MPC is expected to evolve into the control method of choice for power electronic systems operating at low pulse numbers with multiple coupled variables and tight operating constraints it. Model Predictive Control of High Power Converters and Industrial Drives will enable to reader to learn how to increase the power capability of the converter, lower the current distortions, reduce the filter size, achieve very fast transient responses and ensure the reliable operation within safe operating area constraints. Targeted at power electronic practitioners working on control-related aspects as well as control engineers, the material is intuitively accessible, and the mathematical formulations are augmented by illustrations, simple examples and a book companion website featuring animations. Readers benefit from a concise and comprehensive treatment of MPC for industrial power electronics, enabling them to understand, implement and advance the field of high-performance MPC schemes.

HVDC/FACTS for Grid Services in Electric Power Systems
Author: José M. Maza-OrtegaPublisher: MDPI
ISBN: 3039283766
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Electric power systems are headed for a true changing of the guard, due to the urgent need for achieving sustainable energy delivery. Fortunately, the development of new technologies is driving the transition of power systems toward a carbon-free paradigm while maintaining the current standards of quality, efficiency, and resilience. The introduction of HVDC and FACTS in the 20th century, taking advantage of dramatic improvements in power electronics and control, gave rise to unprecedented levels of flexibility and speed of response in comparison with traditional electromechanical devices. This flexibility is nowadays required more than ever in order to solve a puzzle with pieces that do not always fit perfectly. This Special Issue aims to address the role that FACTS and HVDC systems can play in helping electric power systems face the challenges of the near future.

Book Description
"This report describes the efforts and results of examining the feasibility of creating a Virtual Observer/Controller (VOC) to observe and critique Soldiers' performance as they are engaged in simulated small-unit, dismounted infantry training using the Soldier Visualization System (SVS) at Fort Benning, Georgia. The successful integration of these two technologies will mean that the training value of the simulation-based exercises will not be completely dependent on the military expertise of a human observer/controller. Investigating the development of the VOC required several major efforts: (a) identifying the Soldier behaviors that merit performance evaluations; (b) developing situation triggers in the context of a training scenario that stimulate the Soldier behaviors we wish to observe and to evaluate; (c) determining how to detect those behaviors in an automated fashion, and; (d) developing instructional strategies that can adequately respond to both individual actions and small-unit collective behaviors."--Stinet.
