Abstract :
This paper presents a proposal for a new upgrade that will incorporate power electronics experiments in the electric machines lab at Oklahoma State University (both Stillwater and Tulsa campuses). We will introduce a general lab setup which includes digital data acquisition (DAQ) and virtual instrumentation. The application of 3φ inverters will be discussed with our lab setup. The installation of flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices in our 3-bus power system will be presented. In addition, a modelling of unified power flow controller (UPFC) for the use of optimal power flow (OPF) will be described.
