Impedance sensitive STATCOM control for systems supported by renewable generation (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rose, C. J., Sumner, M., Thomas, D. W., & Christopher, E. (in press). Impedance sensitive STATCOM control for systems supported by renewable generation.

Reactive power control is known to be an effective means of controlling voltage; however, for optimal performance, the system reactance must be known. Power systems with high re-newable energy penetration have been known to have voltage stability iss...

Method of efficiently predicting the conducted emissions of multiple VSCs (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Ivry, P. M., Oke, O., Thomas, D. W., & Sumner, M. (in press). Method of efficiently predicting the conducted emissions of multiple VSCs.

Various types of power converters including Voltage Source Converters (VSCs) have been known to produce conducted emissions. The net effect of simultaneously operating multiple VSCs is non-linear and this makes the prediction of the emission level mo...

Background voltage distortion and percentage of nonlinear load impacts on the harmonics produced by a group of personal computers (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rawa, M., Thomas, D. W., & Sumner, M. (in press). Background voltage distortion and percentage of nonlinear load impacts on the harmonics produced by a group of personal computers.

The penetration of nonlinear loads on power systems increases distortion levels and can cause severe problems to power systems. Many factors affect the degree of generated harmonics including the background voltage distortion and percentage of nonlin...

Power flow control for power and voltage management in future smart energy communities (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Fazeli, A., Sumner, M., Christopher, E., & Johnson, C. M. (2014). Power flow control for power and voltage management in future smart energy communities.

The Community Power Flow Control (CPFC) Algorithm has been proposed as a technique for managing electrical power and energy within small communities. The CPFC manages the resources in the community (DSM, energy storage, RES) in order to control the c...

Intelligent impedance based fault-location for zonal power systems (2014)
Conference Proceeding
Rose, C. J., Thomas, D. W., Sumner, M., Christopher, E., & Lopez Arevalo, S. (2014). Intelligent impedance based fault-location for zonal power systems.

A laboratory based demonstrator has been constructed to study the Active Impedance Estimation (AIE) technique as a means of locating faults on a power system. The demonstrator has been used to verify results from simulation experimentally. The AIE sy... Read More about Intelligent impedance based fault-location for zonal power systems.
