A Low-Carbon Economic-Load Dispatching Using PSO Technique
Abstract: This paper presents the solution of economic-load dispatch problem with quadratic cost function by using particle swarm optimization (PSO). PSO technique is useful at solving optimization problems with both single- and multiple-objective functions with non-convex, discontinuous, noisy and non-differentiable solution. The results show that PSO has the ability of minimizing the cost of productions in power system operations. Carbon emission characteristics of all kinds of power units are analysed against …

Smart Dustbin Based on GSM for Smart Cities
Abstract: With the increase of population, the scenario of cleanliness with respect to garbage management is degrading tremendously. In city, there are many public places where we see that garbage bins or dustbins are placed but are overflowing. This creates unhygienic condition in the nearby surrounding. It also creates ugliness and some serious diseases, at the same time bad smell is also spread and it also degrades the valuation of that …

Transformer-Less Dynamic Voltage Restorer Employing an Asymmetrical Seven-Level Inverter with Reduced Number of Switches for Improving Power Quality
Abstract: In modern power system, power quality is one of the major concerns. It has become important, especially with the introduction of smart grid, grid-connected renewable energy systems and sophisticated devices, whose performance is very sensitive to the quality of power supply that results in a failure of end-use equipment. One of the major power quality disturbance dealt here is the voltage sag. To solve this problem, custom power devices are …

Assessment of MPPT-Based Photovoltaic System: A Critical Review
Abstract: In this paper, new approaches are formulated to estimate the parameters and predict the maximum power generated by the PV module at maximum power point under varying environmental conditions. Maximum power point tracking technique is useful for extracting maximum power from PV cell. Here different techniques have been discussed and explained. Keywords: adder, irradiance, maximum power point (MPP), maximum power point tracking (MPPT), photovoltaic (PV)

Partial Discharge Measurements on High Voltage XLPE Power Cable
Abstract: This article presents the analysis of partial discharge measurement techniques on high voltage XLPE cables. It covers the basics of partial discharge, different types of partial discharges, measurement techniques and experimental analysis under different conditions. To evaluate the degradation of a cable and condition of its insulation, an 11 kV cable sample is selected for the experimental test set up for PD detection and the results are demonstrated under various …
