This review article puts forward the phenomena of chaotic oscillation in electrical power systems. The aim is to present some short summaries written by distinguished researchers in the field of chaotic oscillation in power systems. The reviewed papers are classified according to the phenomena that cause the chaotic oscillations in electrical power systems. Modern electrical power systems are evolving day by day from small networks toward large-scale grids. Electrical power systems are constituted of multiple inter-linked together elements, such as synchronous generators, transformers, transmission lines, linear and nonlinear loads, and many other devices. Most of these components are inherently nonlinear in nature rendering the whole electrical power system as a complex nonlinear network. Nonlinear systems can evolve very complex dynamics such as static and dynamic bifurcations and may also behave chaotically. Chaos in electrical power systems is very unwanted as it can drive system bus voltage to instability and can lead to voltage collapse and ultimately cause a general blackout.
This paper focuses on the vibration suppression of a half-car model by using a modified PID controller. Mostly, car vibrations could result from some road disturbances, such as bumps or potholes transmitted to a car body. The proposed controller consists of three main components as in the case of the conventional PID controller which are (Proportional, Integral, and Derivative) but the difference is in the positions of these components in the control loop system. Initially, a linear half-car suspension system is modeled in two forms passive and active, the activation process occurred using a controlled hydraulic actuator. Thereafter, the two systems have been simulated using MATLAB/Simulink software in order to demonstrate the dynamic response. A comparison between conventional and modified PID controllers has been carried out. The resulting dynamic response of the half-car model obtained from the simulation process was improved when using a modified PID controller compared with the conventional PID controller. Moreover, the efficiency and performance of the half-car model suspension have been significantly enhanced by using the proposed controller. Thus, achieving high vehicle stability and ride comfort.
This work focuses on the use of the Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) technique to construct a reliable Static VAr Compensator (SVC), Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC), and Excitation System controller for damping Subsynchronous Resonance ( SSR ) in a power system. There is only one quantifiable feedback signal used by the controller (generator speed deviation). It is also possible to purchase this controller in a reduced-order form. The findings of the robust control are contrasted with those of the "idealistic" full state optimal control. The LQG damping controller's regulator robustness is then strengthened by the application of Loop Transfer Recovery (LTR). Nonlinear power system simulation is used to confirm the resilience of the planned controller and demonstrates how well the regulator dampens power system oscillations. The approach dampens all torsional oscillatory modes quickly while maintaining appropriate control actions, according to simulation results.
In this paper, three phase induction motor (IM) has been modelled in stationary reference frame and controlled by using direct torque control (DTC) method with constant V/F ratio. The obtained drive system consists of nine nonlinear first order differential equations. The numerical analysis is used to investigate the system behavior due to control parameter change. The integral gain of speed loop is used as bifurcation parameter to test the system dynamics. The simulation results show that the system has period-doubling route to chaos, period-1, period-2, period-4, and then the system gets chaotic oscillation. A specific value of the parameter range shows that the system has very strong randomness and a high degree of disturbance
The relative intensity noise (RIN) characteristics in distributed feedback (DFB) lasers are analyzed theoretically by proposing a new methodology. In addition to temperature variation (T), the effect of other model parameters such as injection current (I inj ), active layer volume (V), spontaneous emission (β sp ) and gain compression (ε) factors on RIN characteristics is investigated. The numerical simulations shows, the peak RIN level can be reduced to around –150 dB/Hz, while relaxation oscillation frequency (ROF) is shifted towards 5.6 GHz. In addition, the RIN level is increased with temperature by the rate of 0.2 dB/ºC and ROF is reduced by the rate of 0.018 GHz/ºC. Results show, the low RIN level can be obtained by selecting model parameters reasonably.
