ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis covers the development of a multilevel cascaded inverter for the purpose of costeffective transformerless series dip compensation. Of all known power quality problems, voltage dips are the ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The optimal placement of different types of compensators on electrical networks is a complex task faced by network planners and operations engineers. The successful placement of these devices normally ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Recent advances in semiconductor technology extended the economic power range for DC transmission to just a few MW. Network planners need tools to compare AC and DC alternatives in order to find the ...

Although regenerative braking has been in used in railway systems for a long time already, the energy generated was dissipated in resistor banks. The rapid advances in the power electronics field, accompanied by the ...

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This thesis covers the development of a transformerless series dip compensator. Of all known power quality problems, voltage dips are the greatest reason for concern. Series injection dip compensators offer ...
