Developing a Model in Matlab/Simulink Environment for Induction Motor Considering Core Loss and Stray Load Loss
Abstract: This paper focuses on a Matlab/Simulink model of a squirrel-cage induction motor with consideration of core loss and stray load loss. This model is based on some mathematical expressions and also described through an equivalent circuit including core loss and stray load loss. The model of induction motor has been developed based on the state space equations in a synchronously rotating reference frame, where core loss and stray load losses …

Voltage and Frequency Control of a Self Excited Induction Generator Using VSI
Abstract: In remote areas of a country where it is impossible or too expensive to access main power lines, one solution to obtain electric power is to use a small stand-alone hydro power plant. In such a situation, the turbine is been driven by a steady flow of water in a river. It is preferable to use a self-excited induction generator, due to its low cost an ruggedness. The voltage and …

Energy Management for Rural Electrification using Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric Renewable
Abstract: India ranks fourth in terms of purchasing power and is eleventh largest economy of the world. Solar Energy, Animal wastes, and Crop residues are some of the major renewable sources available in rural areas of India that can be harnessed in an efficient way to meet the energy demand. After assessing the Existing Village (Nangal), it was found that Hybrid Renewable Energy System is an optimum solution for complete electrification …

A Core Loss Model Based on Finite Element Method for Switched Reluctance Generator Considering Different Control Modes
Abstract: In the present paper, core loss modeling of switched reluctance generator (SRG) is proposed for the first time. Using ANSYS finite element (FE) package, 2D FE transient analysis of SRG is carried out and the stator pole flux waveform is predicted. To determine the flux waveforms in the different parts of the machine, an introduced mathematical flux model is considered and its algorithm is implemented in ANSYS Parametric Design Language …
