The resulting model is vector fitting [3] is well suited for finding the needed rational dynamically stable since only negative poles are used, and inputatput function approximations.

The methodology is realization (SER) by solving an overdetermined set of equations as used to formulate two different transformer models: I)a full phase a least squares problem.

However, the inherent ill-conditioning 2.1 Model formulation limits this method to low order approximations. Also, some poles of the resulting fit may turn out to be unstable. A way of overcoming these problems is by iteratively fitting partial fractions to the data [2].This methodology is complicated in the sense that the frequency responses must be scrutinized in advance to decide how many and which type of fractions to use (real or complex conjugate pairs). Also, the success of the method is dependent on the starting values used in the iteration. A sufficient requirement for the resulting transformer model to I I Ivn give a stable simulation is that all of its poles lie in the left half plane (dynamic stability), and that all eigenvalues of the resulting Fig. 1 n-terminal transformer admittance matrix lie in the right half plane (input-output stability).

At a frequency ω a set of inputs with amplitudes u(ω) generate steady-state outputs with amplitudes y(ω). (These amplitude vectors are, in general, complex-valued, indicating mag- nitude and phase.) The singular value decomposition of the transfer function matrix is H(ω) = Y (ω) Σ(ω) U ∗(ω) (1) where: U(ω) is the r by r orthonormal matrix of input amplitude vectors, U ∗U = I, and Y (ω) is the m by m orthonormal matrix of output amplitude vectors, Y ∗Y = I Σ(ω) is the m by r diagonal matrix of singular values, Σ(ω) = diag(σ1(ω), σ2(ω), ··· σn(ω)) At any frequency ω, the singular values are ordered as: σ1(ω) ≥ σ2(ω) ≥ · · · ≥ σn(ω) ≥ 0 Re-arranging the singular value decomposition of H(s), H(ω)U(ω) = Y (ω) Σ(ω) or H(ω) ui(ω) = σi(ω) yi(ω) where ui(ω) and yi(ω) are the i-th columns of U(ω) and Y (ω).

  • An Approximate Transfer Function Model for a Double-Pipe Counter-Flow Heat Exchanger
    energies Article An Approximate Transfer Function Model for a Double-Pipe Counter-Flow Heat Exchanger Krzysztof Bartecki Division of Control Science and Engineering, Opole University of Technology, ul. Prószkowska 76, 45-758 Opole, Poland; [email protected] Abstract: The transfer functions G(s) for different types of heat exchangers obtained from their par- tial differential equations usually contain some irrational components which reflect quite well their spatio-temporal dynamic properties. However, such a relatively complex mathematical representa- tion is often not suitable for various practical applications, and some kind of approximation of the original model would be more preferable. In this paper we discuss approximate rational transfer func- tions Gˆ(s) for a typical thick-walled double-pipe heat exchanger operating in the counter-flow mode. Using the semi-analytical method of lines, we transform the original partial differential equations into a set of ordinary differential equations representing N spatial sections of the exchanger, where each nth section can be described by a simple rational transfer function matrix Gn(s), n = 1, 2, ... , N. Their proper interconnection results in the overall approximation model expressed by a rational transfer function matrix Gˆ(s) of high order. As compared to the previously analyzed approximation model for the double-pipe parallel-flow heat exchanger which took the form of a simple, cascade interconnection of the sections, here we obtain a different connection structure which requires the use of the so-called linear fractional transformation with the Redheffer star product. Based on the resulting rational transfer function matrix Gˆ(s), the frequency and the steady-state responses of the approximate model are compared here with those obtained from the original irrational transfer Citation: Bartecki, K.

  • Stabilization Theory for Active Multi-Port Networks Mayuresh Bakshi† Member, IEEE,, Virendra R Sule∗ and Maryam Shoejai Baghini‡, Senior Member, IEEE
    1 Stabilization Theory For Active Multi-port Networks Mayuresh Bakshiy Member, IEEE,, Virendra R Sule∗ and Maryam Shoejai Baghiniz, Senior Member, IEEE, Abstract This paper proposes a theory for designing stable interconnection of linear active multi-port networks at the ports. Such interconnections can lead to unstable networks even if the original networks are stable with respect to bounded port excitations. Hence such a theory is necessary for realising interconnections of active multiport networks. Stabilization theory of linear feedback systems using stable coprime factorizations of transfer functions has been well known. This theory witnessed glorious developments in recent past culminating into the H1 approach to design of feedback systems. However these important developments have seldom been utilized for network interconnections due to the difficulty of realizing feedback signal flow graph for multi-port networks with inputs and outputs as port sources and responses. This paper resolves this problem by developing the stabilization theory directly in terms of port connection description without formulation in terms of signal flow graph of the implicit feedback connection. The stable port interconnection results into an affine parametrized network function in which the free parameter is itself a stable network function and describes all stabilizing port compensations of a given network. Index Terms Active networks, Coprime factorization, Feedback stabilization, Multiport network connections. I. INTRODUCTION CTIVE electrical networks, which require energizing sources for their operation, are most widely A used components in engineering. However operating points of such networks are inherently very sensitive to noise, temperature and source variations. Often there are considerable variations in parameters of active circuits from their original design values during manufacturing and cannot be used in applications without external compensation.

A system level optimizer would search over the entire design space, adjusting the parameters of interest, for optimal performance metrics. These optimizers demand for the availability of parameterized compact dynamical models of all individual modules. The parameters may include geometrical parameters, such as width and spacing for an induc- tor or design parameters such as center frequency or characteristic impedance in case of distributed transmission line structures. The parameterized models of individual blocks need to be compact and passive since the optimizer would be solving differential equations (time domain integration or periodic steady state methods) to compute the performance metrics.

Sci., 2020, Vol. 30, No. 3, 475–491 DOI: 10.34768/amcs-2020-0035 APPROXIMATE STATE–SPACE AND TRANSFER FUNCTION MODELS FOR 2×2 LINEAR HYPERBOLIC SYSTEMS WITH COLLOCATED BOUNDARY INPUTS a KRZYSZTOF BARTECKI aInstitute of Control Engineering Opole University of Technology ul. Prószkowska 76, 45-758 Opole, Poland e-mail: [email protected] Two approximate representations are proposed for distributed parameter systems described by two linear hyperbolic PDEs with two time- and space-dependent state variables and two collocated boundary inputs. Using the method of lines with the backward difference scheme, the original PDEs are transformed into a set of ODEs and expressed in the form of a finite number of dynamical subsystems (sections). Each section of the approximation model is described by state-space equations with matrix-valued state, input and output operators, or, equivalently, by a rational transfer function matrix. The cascade interconnection of a number of sections results in the overall approximation model expressed in finite-dimensional state-space or rational transfer function domains, respectively. The discussion is illustrated with a practical example of a parallel-flow double-pipe heat exchanger. Its steady-state, frequency and impulse responses obtained from the original infinite-dimensional representation are compared with those resulting from its approximate models of different orders. The results show better approximation quality for the “crossover” input–output channels where the in-domain effects prevail as compared with the “straightforward” channels, where the time-delay phenomena are dominating. Keywords: distributed parameter system, hyperbolic equations, approximation model, state space, transfer function.

It is an array of bidirectional controlled switches that couples directly the three phase sources to three phase balanced load without the need of bulky and limited lifetime energy storage elements. This paper discuss the operating principle and space vector modulation scheme for indirect transfer function matrix converter. The simulation and experimental result are shown to prove the ability of the converter to generate three phase output voltage and current of different frequency with respect to input three phase voltage and current frequency. Also the input power factor is maintained to near unity irrespective of load Keywords – Matrix converter (MC), Indirect Transfer Approach, AC-AC power conversion. 1. Introduction The most desirable characteristics of power converters are simple and compact power circuit, generation of load voltage of constant amplitude and frequency, cosinosodial input and output currents, operating with unity power factor for any load and regeneration capability. This all features are fulfilled by the matrix converter. The Matrix Converter is an array of (m x n) fully controlled bidirectional switches which transform „m‟ input voltage of particular frequency in to „n‟ output voltage in to different frequency.
