Comparative analysis of SCIG and DFIG based wind generation on transient stability of the Kenyan power system
(2014)Generation of Electrical power from wind is achieved using the two mainly available generator technologies. These technologies are the squirrel cage induction generators (SCIG) and doubly fed induction generators (DFIGs). ... -
A Comparative Study of Dual-slope Path Loss Model in Various Indoor Environments at 14 to 22GHz
(2018-08)Fifth generation wireless communication networks will demand massive bandwidth for high data rates. The millimeter wave frequency bands will play an important role in the 5G wireless networks due to the available huge chunk ... -
Comparison of aggregation methods of induction motor models for transient stability load modeling
(2010)This paper focusses on the comparison of the aggregation methods of multiple induction motors (IM) connected in parallel on the same bus into a single equivalent model using the no-load and locked-rotor and transformer ... -
Continuation load flow with a neuro fuzzy model of an induction motor for voltage stability analysis
(2010)This paper uses the concept of the continuation power flow analysis used in voltage stability Analysis for control the power in large systems. It uses the PV curves to find the knee point of a certain bus. A neuro fuzzy ... -
The dependency of bus voltage and frequency in load shedding
(2013)Load shedding schemes proposed in literature so far use voltage and frequency parameters separately. The individual consideration of these indices may not be reliable or effective, and may even lead to the over load shedding ... -
