With the increase of electric energy demand, one of the human concerns is to create the infrastructure for the production and transmission of energy in order to meet this need. Since the network must have the ability to supply the load during the peak load times, practically during the non-peak load times, many production capacities remain unused and their productivity decreases. One of the ways to reduce this problem due to the increase in penetration of batteries in the network can be the participation of battery banks to inject power into the network during peak load times. The goal of this project is to develop an 8 kilowatt-hour battery bank system that can inject 2 kilowatts of power... 

Inverters are the main utility in transmitting power from distributed generation (DG) systems toward grid and their safe and immune performance has become a major concern among the system designers. In addition to poor power transmittance, faults in inverter can harm other equipment such as DG and local load. Consequently different protections has been considered to increase the reliability of these systems. Some of these protections like fuses and varistors are implemented in the hardware while others are considered in the processor. In the later class of protections, fault detection and isolation (FDI) system has been the subject of intense investigation in inverters over the past two... 

Programmable AC Power Supply is a part of any Grid Simulator. Grid simulator is a system that, as a voltage source, can produce various power grid voltage waveforms in the output, and as a load, can draw different currents of ordinary loads from the power grid. The application of Grid Simulators is testing many grid connected systems, such as chargers, power supplies, PV inverters and etc. The purpose of this thesis is to design and build a 3 kW Programmable AC power supply, which can be used as a part of a grid simulator in future works. In this thesis, back to back converter topology is used for implementation of the programmable AC power supply. This back to back converter consists of an... 

Three-phase electronic loads are used to test the performance of various electrical devices such as power supplies, generators, and transformers. Conventional electronic loads are composed of passive components that consume the energy, so have low power density and efficiency and to manage the produced heat, massive cooling systems are required. Nowadays, to increase efficiency and power density, three-phase regenerative electronic AC loads have been developed. To return energy to the grid and control the input power factor, the structure of these loads is based on back-to-back converters. In this project, a 35 kVA three-phase regenerative electronic AC load is designed. To control the power...
