What is Shunt Compensation in Power System?: Shunt Compensation are connected in shunt at various system nodes (major substations) and sometimes at mid-point of lines. These serve the purposes of…
What is Series Compensation in Power System?: Series Compensation - A capacitor in series with a line gives control over the effective reactance between line ends. This effective reactance is…
Line Compensation in Power System: Line Compensation - Ideal voltage profile for a transmission line is flat, which can only be achieved by loading the line with its surge impedance…
Methods of Voltage Control in Transmission Lines: Practically each equipment used in power system are rated for a certain voltage with a permissible band of voltage variations. Voltage at various…
Tuned Power Lines in Transmission: Equation (5.23) characterizes the performance of a Tuned Power Lines in long Transmission line. For an overhead line shunt conductance G is always negligible and…
Types of Forced Commutation: It was observed from the discussion on choppers and inverters that in thyristor systems fed from dc supply, the forward current does not pass through zero…
Basic Principle of Chopper Circuit: A Basic Principle of Chopper Circuit is essentially a thyristor switch in series with the load as shown in Fig. 11.27(a). A shunting diode is…
Types of Converters in Power Electronics: The different types of converters in power electronics are AC/DC Converters AC/AC Converters The Matrix Converter DC/DC Converters DC/AC Converters Control VSI Current Source…
