Design and modeling of 1-10 MWe liquefied natural gas-fueled combined cooling, heating and power plants for building applications
(2015)Decentralized, liquefied natural gas-fueled, trigeneration plants are considered as alternatives to centralized, electricity-only generating power plants to improve efficiency and minimize running costs. The proposed system ...

A Distributed Frequency Regulation Architecture for Islanded Inertialess AC Microgrids
(2017)We address the problem of frequency regulation in islanded ac microgrids with no inertia, i.e., those consisting entirely of generators interfaced through power electronics. The control architecture we propose to achieve ...

A distributed generation control architecture for islanded ac microgrids
(2015)In this paper, we propose a distributed architecture for generation control in islanded ac microgrids with both synchronous generators and inverter-interfaced power supplies. Although they are smaller and have lower ratings, ...

Effective utilization of liquefied natural gas for distributed generation
(Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2015)Liquefied natural gas (LNG) is considered a safe and transportable fuel and could become a fueling option for distributed generation applications, particularly in locations which are situated far from centralized power ...

Failure identification in smart grids based on Petri net modeling
(2011)This paper presents a method to identify and localize failures in smart grids. The method is based on a carefully designed Petri net (PN) that captures the modeling details of the protection system of the distribution ...

Thermoeconomic modeling and exergy analysis of a decentralized liquefied natural gas-fueled combined-cooling-heating-and-power plant
(2014)A small-scale combined-cooling-heating-and-power (CCHP) plant is proposed as a possible alternative to large-scale, centralized, electricity-only power plants. The proposed system is based on a non-ideal gas turbine (Brayton) ...

A two-stage distributed architecture for voltage control in power distribution systems
(2013)In this paper, we propose an architecture for voltage regulation in distribution networks that relies on controlling reactive power injections provided by distributed energy resources (DERs). A local controller on each bus ...
