This document summarizes the key findings of a study on the impact of integrating AC microgrids with distributed generators (DGs) into the main grid. The study models and simulates radial and meshed microgrid configurations connected to the main grid. It finds that DGs improve voltage profiles by supplying power locally and reduce active and reactive power losses. Fault analysis shows short circuit currents increase with DGs due to reduced system impedance, though voltages are improved. In conclusion, microgrids can meet future electricity needs by generating and consuming power locally while minimizing losses on the main grid.

Challenges and Benefits of Integrating the Renewable Energy Technologies into...Power System Operation
In the recent decent, renewable energy has been becoming one of the independent energy sources in human life, and it will be a major resources for the future generation of power. Today, some people tend to use renewable energy in their home or land such as solar or wind energy. Most of those have two inputs of the power source; the utility power supply and renewable energy power supply, so the integration of renewable technologies variable generation sources within Ac grid has been made, but this connection is not easily reachable. This paper will be reviewed the challenges and benefits of integrating renewable energy into power system grid. A review of the integration process will be introduced. Also, the paper will discuss some difficulties that face the integration such as power quality requirements that must be achieved to get this connection successfully. Forecasting of renewable energy such availability of power at any time, the amount of variation in power output, the speed of variation, and the location of RE source are other challenges that may obstruct the successful incorporation of renewable energy and the grid. In addition, the paper will briefly show a device that can be used in homes to achieve this connection. Finally, advantages of the integration for both the power utility and the green energy owner will be present, and how this integration can affect our environment.

As the rapid development of photovoltaic (PV) technology in recent years with the growth of electricity demand, integration of photovoltaic distributed generation (PVDG) to the distribution system is emerging to fulfil the demand. There are benefits and drawbacks to the distribution system due to the penetration of PVDG. This paper discussed and investigated the impacts of PVDG location and size on distribution power systems. The medium voltage distribution network is connected to the grid with the load being supplied by PVDG. Load flow and short circuit calculation are analyzed by using DigSILENT Power Factory Software. Comparisons have been made between the typical distribution system and the distribution system with the penetration of PVDG. Impacts in which PVDG location and size integrates with distribution system are investigated with the results given from the load flow and short circuit analysis. The results indicate positive impacts on the system interconnected with PVDG such as improving voltage profile, reducing power losses, releasing transmission and distribution grid capacity. It also shows that optimal locations and sizes of DGs are needed to minimize the system’s power losses. On the other hand, it shows that PVDG interconnection to the system can cause reverse power flow at improper DG size and location and increases short circuit level.

A Novel Technique for Enhancing Active and Reactive Power Quality for Renewab...IJMER
Renewable energy resources (RES) are being increasingly connected in distribution systems utilizing power electronic converters. This paper presents a novel control strategy for achieving maximum benefits from these grid-interfacing inverters when installed in 3-phase 4-wire distribution systems. The inverter is controlled to perform as a multi-function device by incorporating active power filter functionality. The inverter can thus be utilized as: 1) power converter to inject power generated from RES to the grid, and 2) shunt APF to compensate current unbalance, load current harmonics, load reactive power demand and load neutral current. All of these functions may be accomplished either individually or simultaneously. With such a control, the combination of grid-interfacing inverter and the 3-phase 4-wire linear/non-linear unbalanced load at point of common coupling appears as balanced linear load to the grid. This new control concept is demonstrated with extensive MATLAB/Simulink simulation studies and results.

Microgrid is defined as the cluster of multiple distributed generators (DGs) such as renewable energy sources that supply electrical energy. The connection of microgrid is in parallel with the main grid. When microgrid is isolated from remainder of the utility system, it is said to be in intentional islanding mode. In this mode, DG inverter system operates in voltage control mode to provide constant voltage to the local load. During grid connected mode, the Microgrid operates in constant current control mode to supply preset power to the main grid. The main contribution of this paper is summarized as
1) Design of a network based control scheme for inverter based sources, which provides proper current control during grid connected mode and voltage control during islanding mode.
2) Development of an algorithm for intentional islanding detection and synchronization controller required during grid reconnection.
3) Dynamic modeling and simulation are conducted to show system behavior under proposed method using SIMULINK.
From the simulation results using Simulink dynamic models, it can be shown that these controllers provide the microgrid with a deterministic and reliable connection to the grid.

Energy Management of Distributed Generation Inverters using MPC Controller i...IJMER
This paper presents a microgrid consisting of different distributed generation (DG) units
that are connected to the distribution grid. An energy-management algorithm is implemented to
coordinate the operations of the different DG units in the microgrid for grid-connected and islanded
operations. The proposed microgrid consists of a photovoltaic (PV) array which functions as the
primary generation unit of the microgrid and a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell to supplement the
variability in the power generated by the PV array. A lithium-ion storage battery is incorporated into
the microgrid to mitigate peak demands during grid-connected operation and to compensate for any
shortage in the generated power during islanded operation. The control design for the DG inverters
employs a new model predictive control algorithm which enables faster computational time for large
power systems by optimizing the steady-state and the transient control problems separately. The design
concept is verified through various test scenarios to demonstrate the operational capability of the
proposed microgrid, and the obtained results are discussed.

The micro grid concept has the potential to solve major problems arising from large penetration of distributed generation in distribution systems. The micro grid was designed to operate connected to the main network. The micro grid operated appropriately for different steady state operating conditions. A proper control strategy should be implemented for a successful operation of a micro grid. This paper presents a performance study of a dc micro-grid when it is used a voltage droop technique to regulated the grid voltage and to control the load sharing between different sources like Photovoltaic cell , Fuel Cell, Batteries, etc. Some aspects about centralized (master-slave) and decentralized (voltage droop) control strategies are presented. In this paper, the work done in the field of Micro Grid has been reviewed.
Distributed energy units cannot be directly integrated into the power grid due to their inherently varying output. An interfacing technology is required. The power electronic interface is used for connecting distributed energy resources to the smart grid. It can also be used in any type of electric vehicles. It does not store energy in its circuitry. It receives power from the distributed energy source and converts it to power at the required voltage and frequency. This paper provides a brief introduction on power electronic interface. Matthew N.

A Comprehensive Review of Protection Schemes for Distributed GenerationUmair Shahzad
Due to the increasing demand of energy and the need for nonconventional energy sources, distributed generation (DG) has come into play. The trend of unidirectional power flow has been gradually shifting. With new technology comes new challenges, the introduction of DG into the conventional power system brings various challenges; one of the major challenges is system protection under DG sources. These sources pose a significant challenge due to bidirectional flows from DGs as well as lower fault current contribution from inverter interfaced DGs. This paper reviews existing protection schemes that have been suggested for active distribution networks. Most of these protection strategies apply only to smaller distribution systems implying that they may need to be extended to larger systems with a much higher penetration of distributed generation. In the end, a potential protection scheme has also been recommended as a future work.
Development of Load Control Algorithm for PV Microgrid IJECEIAES
The variability of solar irradiance caused by weather conditions could result in the mismatch between the solar PV generation and demand, particularly in the microgrid context. This may lead to detrimental effects of over/under voltage or over/under frequency. In this regard, this paper presents the laboratory setup of a grid-connected PV inverter operating in islanding condition. To achieve this, a load control algorithm is proposed to provide autonomous real time demand control that follows the PV generation to maintain generation-demand equilibrium requirement. Laboratory results show that the proposed load control algorithm is capable to address the voltage and the frequency violation in islanding condition, regardless of the variation of irradiance and power generated by the PV sources.
Optimal placement of distributed power flow controller for loss reduction usi...eSAT Journals
Abstract
The aim of this paper is to reduce power loss and improve the voltage profiles in an electrical system in optimal manner. The flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) device such as Distributed power flow controller (DPFC) can strongly improve the different parameters in a power system. DPFC can be used to reduce line losses and increase voltage profiles. The optimized allocation of FACTS devices is an important issue, so the Voltage stability index (L-index) has been used in order to place UPFC in power system. The advantage of the L-index is to accelerate the optimization process. After placing the DPFC, Firefly optimization method is used for finding the rating of DPFC. The results obtained using Firefly optimization method is compared with Genetic Algorithm. To show the validity of the proposed techniques and for comparison purposes, simulation carried out on an IEEE- 14 Bus and IEEE- 30 Bus test system for different loading conditions.

Power flow control of hybrid micro grids using modified uipcAsoka Technologies
Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) controlled modified Unified Inter-Phase Power Controller (UIPC). For study, a classic hybrid micro-grid connected to grid comprising of a AC micro-grid and a DC micro-grid is taken into account. These micro-grids are interconnected employing a modified UIPC, rather than using the power converters connected in parallel. As the first input of this paper is the standard structure of UIPC, which used three power converters in every phase. It was then modified such as number of power converters is used less and implemented for the control of the exchange of power between AC-DC microgrids. In every phase there is one power electronic converter in the improved structure. It is called as Line Power Converter (LPC). Also there is Bus Power Converter (BPC) to regulate the voltage of the DC bus. The Line Power Converters links the AC micro-grid to the main grid. The DC buses are also linked with them. It can be operated in Inductance Mode (IM) as well as Capacitance Mode (CM). The control structure of LPCs has an Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Controller in it. For hybrid micro-grids, the capability of the suggested power flow control strategy is confirmed by the MATLAB simulation results.

As source of traditional energy is vanishes day by day,importance of microgrid increasing very effectively. In traditional generation and transmission of electrical power we have to rely on frequency and generation of power but in case of microgrid we have to depend on whether condition. Managing these systems to change of atmospheric condition becomes challenging . All study going on all over world related to microgrid protection of microgrid is one of them. Micro grids can either operate connected to the grid,or in the case of a grid fault,in an islanded mod e. Effect of high impedance fault is studied in this paper,by taking help of Matlab - Simulink�s SimPower Systems . We model a microgrid containing mix of renewable DG and one dispatch able source,we then simulate the HIF fault at one of the bus in both gri d - connect and island modes and analyze fault currents and voltage levels in order to determine how the protection scheme of the distribution network would need to be changed to facilitate microgrid functionality. We show that standard protection methods ar e insufficient and propose the use of digital relays which is different from traditional system.

The most important components of the distributed generation frameworks is the GTIs which is an interface amidst the utility and the source of energy. The recent years have seen an increased interest in the design and usage of GTIs due to its smaller weight and size, low cost and higher efficiency. But the problem of leakage currents in the transformerless inverter that is dependant on its topology and control scheme needs to be looked into carefully. Also, the high performance of the GTI requires a stringent control and various control systems are being developed and applied to the GTIs. This paper reviews the various topologies that are classified based on the attributes of the leakage current and the method of decoupling. Further it reviews and compares the different control techniques applied to the GTIs with respect to the frame of reference, controller, modulation technique and the control parameters considered.

Dealing With Reactive Power in Islanded Micro Grid Corresponding Power Distri...ijtsrd
A Micro grid MG is a local energy system consisting of a number of energy sources e.g., wind turbine or solar panels among others , energy storage units, and loads that operate connected to the main electrical grid or autonomously. MGs provide flexibility, reduce the main electricity grid dependence, and contribute to changing large centralized production paradigm to local and distributed generation. However, such energy systems require complex management, advanced control, and optimization. Moreover, the power electronics converters have to be used to correct energy conversion and be interconnected through a common control structure is necessary. A classical droop control system is often implemented in MG. It allows correct operation of parallel voltage sourced converters in grid connection, as well as islanded mode of operation. However, it requires complex power management algorithms, especially in islanded MGs, which balance the system and improves reliability. The novel reactive power sharing algorithm is developed, which takes into account the parameters of the converter as apparent power limit and maximum active power. The developed solution is verified in simulation and compared with other known reactive power control methods. G. Amulya | Dr. S. V. D.

This paper deals with the availability in microgrids that are composed of a set of sources (Photovoltaic generators, wind turbines, diesel generators and batteries) and a set of loads (critical and uncritical loads). The energy produced by various sources will be grouped in an alternative bus (AC bus), and it will be distributed on loads through an electrical distribution system. The occurrence of a fault in the system can cause a total or partial unavailability of energy required by the loads. The objective of this paper is to characterize the fault caused by the limited reliability of the components of the electrical distribution system and to propose an new design methodology to optimize the availability of this system (as well as the availability of power supply) by taking into account all the economic constraints. The proposed methodology is based on the redundancy of electrical distribution paths. An application of this optimization to a petroleum platform shows clearly a high degree of supply availability distribution in microgrid.
OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION OF POWER DISTRIBUTION RADIAL NETWORK USING HYBRID MET...IAEME Publication
Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.
This paper presents a thorough control structure of the distributed generators inside the microgrid during both grid-connected and islanded operation modes. These control structures of the DGs voltage source inverters are implemented in synchronous reference frame (SRF) and controlled using linear PI controllers. By implementing the control structures, the desired real and reactive power can be efficiently transferred to the local loads and the utility load by the microgrid generating units. A modified droop control technique is introduced to facilitate the microgrid performance during both modes of operation. The active and reactive power sharing of the load demand between the utility grid and the microgrid can be performed by this drop control technique during the islanded mode. The system performance during intentional islanding event and utility load increase is investigated. The effectiveness of the offered control structures is confirmed through simulation results during both modes of operation.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

2. called smart grid (SG) tend to be more distributed, and
consequently, energy generation and consumption areas
cannot be conceived separately.
Hence, microgrids are becoming a reality to cope with a
new scenario in which renewable energy, distributed
generation (DG) and distributed energy-storage systems
have to be integrated together [7]. This new concept makes
the final user not to be a passive element in the grid, but an
entity able to generate, storage, control and manage part of
the energy that he/she will consume. Besides, areduction in
cost and an increment in reliability and transparency are
achieved. The observed radical transformation of the
electrical grid entails deep challenges not only on the
architecture of the power system, but also in the control
system. To the utility, the microgrid of a single controllable
load can meet their special needs such as enhancing local
reliability, reducing feeder losses, supporting local
voltages, providing increased efficiency through the use of
waste heat. [8]
Until now, distribution networks are regarded with
unidirectional power flows and as a passive termination of
the transmission network with a radial structure. They often
have had a simple and efficient protection scheme. But in
reality, the presence of a large amount of DG, distribution
networks will gradually change towards a new kind of
active networks. This most change in handling the
increasing distribution of DG over the network, could be
represented by the adoption of a meshed network
architecture. [9]
C. Fault
In an electric power system, [10] a fault is any
abnormal electric current. For example, a short circuit is a
fault in which current bypasses the normal load. An open-
circuit fault occurs if a circuit is interrupted by some
failure. In three-phase systems, a fault may involve one or
more phases and ground, or may occur only between
phases. In a "ground fault" or "earth fault", charge flows
into the earth. There are two types of faults namely,
• Symmetric faults: Line to line to line to ground
(LLLG) fault and Line to line to line (LLL) faults.
• Unsymmetrical faults: Line to ground (LG), Line
to line (LL) and Line to line to ground (LLG)
faults.
During the case of fault in a microgrid, the distributed
generators would contribute to the increase in the fault. So,
it is essential to do fault detection and configure the power
electronic devices to isolate the DG's so that it would
reduce the resulted fault current.
III. SIMULATION - RESULTS
In the simulations conducted, only the fundamental
frequency components of the voltages and currents are
considered (harmonics are neglected). Also, balanced
operation is assumed i.e. only the positive sequence is
considered. For the simulations, the more traditional radial
networks which are a top down representation and a more
practical representation of the interconnected grid networks
is considered and simulated.
A. Radial Configuration
The given system is a radially connected 69KV sub
transmission system with 13.8KV distribution system
which can be observed in the Fig. l. For this simulation,
4.4 MW of load is considered. The specifications of the
system considered are given in TABLE I.

Here, two different cases are considered and compared:
1) Base case
In the considered base case, the DGs in Fig.l are not
turned on. This is simulated using PSAT.
2) Base case with DG's
Now the microgrid is simulated in PSAT with DGs
tumed on from the Fig. 1.
By comparing Fig.2 and Fig.5 with Fig.6 and Fig.9 we
can infer that the power consumed from the main grid has
been reduced with the introduction of DG and the real and
reactive power is supplied by the DG's cater to the local
needs. By comparing Fig.3 and Fig.4 with Fig.7 and Fig.8
we can infer that the voltage profiles at the loads have
increased after introducing DG's into the grid. The DG's
supply voltage locally and hence increasing the voltage
profiles at each bus.

To observe the impact of the distributed generators
(DG) on heavily loaded meshed networks the following
cases are considered and the simulations are conducted.
1) Base Case
[n this case, like the way it was considered in the radial
case, the DG's are switched off and the system is simulated
and the voltage and power profiles at each bus are noted.
As we can see that the red indications in the Fig.ll indicate
that the voltage regulation is lesser than the required
voltage at the corresponding busses.
5. Fig. 11. NEPLAN simulation ofmeshed base case w/o DG
2) Microgrid Case
We can see from Fig.12 that with the implementation of
DG in the system, the voltage regulations are as per the
requirements.
By comparing the voltage profiles at each bus as shown
in the Fig.13 we can infer that by implementing the DG the
voltage profiles at each bus have improved even in the
mesh distributed system.
By calculating the power losses in the system in 69kV
line and 13.8kV line before and after the usage of DG's as
shown in the Fig.14, we can infer that the active power loss
have reduced.

C. Fault analysis
The most severe of all the existing faults is 3 phases
connected together and grounded, fault currents are highest
of all four and most likely to damage equipment. So, a 3
phase to ground fault case is considered for this paper.
Fault analysis is conducted to the meshed distributed model
since it provides a more practical approach to the real
systems. Fault analysis is done on the system at each bus
and the fault currents are calculated at each bus. The results
are tabulated as shown in TABLE III.
It can be noted from the Table 111, that by including
DG's which are connected in shunt, we reduce the
impedance, which not only improves the voltage levels but
also reduces the effective impedance of the system due to
which the short circuit current increases'.

IV. CONCLUSION
Microgrid system is an alternative electricity network
that can be used to meet the electricity needs of the future.
Improvised voltage regulation is observed with the
integration of different distributed generations in the main
grid to form microgrid both in radial as weil as meshed
systems. Since the power is generated and consumed
locally the active and reactive power losses in the system
are also minimized. However, it should be noted with the
integration of distributed generation at lower voltage levels
there might be chances of increasing the fault levels of the
system. Thus, by using power electronic devices which can
create electrical isolation, this problem can be evaded. It is
also observed that there will essentiality to change the
protection settings as per the microgrid configuration since
there will be bidirectional power tlow between
transmission and distribution system. Further, detailed
analysis will be required to find the optimal position to set
up new distribution generations in the given AC system to
form microgrids.
