Power quality with solid state transformer integrated smart-grids
Abstract
This paper presents the mathematical model of a three phase Solid State Transformer (SST). The model is designed in PLECS. The model is integrated into a grid with high penetration of non-linear loads. The model addresses constraints including smooth voltage regulation, permitted Total Harmonic Distortion and the incorporation of distributed generation and energy storage. The main feature of the SST is the absorption of wave distortion such as sag and swell, which are considered in the SST design. The main contribution of this research prevails in the inclusion of the SST model that allows a bi-directional power flow considering high power quality leading to the vision of smart grids.

Compared to the LFT, SST is much lighter, more compact, and has higher power density, which makes it very suitable for widespread use in power distribution systems.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
