Robust Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Controllers for Intelligent Universal Transformers in ADA

Abstract:

Intelligent Universal Transformer (IUT) will comprise in Advanced Distribution Automation (ADA) with a new invention in control and management in future. It evolves with a high speed traditional transformer in addition to power electronic base construction will eventuate to oil elimination, dimensional size and weight reduction. Adaptive Fuzzy Logic Control (AFLC) is an adaptive progressed method with the high system performance capability being raised even on the uncertainty conditions. It enhances system stability, improves flexibility and releases designers from precise mathematical model utilization. Expert designer Knowledge is a critical requirement for conventional fuzzy logic controller (FLC), in contrast the AFLC rules and parameters are generated by adaptive model and human knowledge will downright initialize the first parameters values. In this approach four layers IUT topology is considered for developing the end user service options as 48V DC, reliable power as 240V AC 400HZ and three phase power option. AFLC schemes are proposed for employing current and voltage controllers in input output stages. Real time voltage regulation, automatic sag correction, Harmonic Filtering, energy storage option and dynamic system monitoring are the resulting benefits of using IUT four layers topology. AFLC methodology, leading the system robustness in any cases of grid and load disturbances.
