There’s an increasing need for high-efficiency power conversion for a wide range of applications. Among the several available power factor correction (PFC) solutions, the critical conduction mode (CrM ...

The introduction of large amounts of intermittent renewable power (namely wind and solar) into electrical distribution grids has highlighted the importance of optimizing the frequency regulation ...

Harmonics of the 60 Hz power frequency has been around for a long time. It was observed on transmission systems in the early 1890s and was associated with voltage and current waveforms. As equipment ...

In vehicle electrical systems, a high- to low-voltage DC/DC converter is a reversible electronic device that changes the DC from the vehicle’s high-voltage (400 V or 800 V) battery to a lower DC ...

Real-time power supply and demand balances are critical to ensure stable power frequency and quality power services. However, the growing integration of renewable energy increasingly challenges the ...

Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) techniques — along with associated techniques such as dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) and adaptive voltage and frequency scaling (AVFS) — are very effective ...

Not open for further replies. Apparently it is too much of a hassle to maintain a consistent AC frequency. I am unimpressed, electricity producers. And trying to blame it on renewable energy is just ...

As the avionics industry moves toward realization of the all-electric aircraft, in which flight systems rely more on electric drives and actuation than ever before, the impact on the designs of ...
