Come mingle with the major players of all corners of CT indust ry and even beyond\, including the likes of Sikorsky\, Lockheed Martin\, O tis Elevator Company\, Collins Aerospace\, Pratt & Whitney\, Raytheon\, Tr iumph Group\, Eversource\, General Dynamics/Electric Boat\, and academic l uminaries from UConn\, Central Connecticut State University\, and many mor e from the region (including greater New England and New York).\n\nThanks to incredible co-sponsors\, the new CT PELS chapter wants to share this ki ckoff party with you by starting with a networking reception (including fu ll food and drink) to mingle with other professionals and students. There will be student posters and demonstrations to check out before getting to the main event\, our featured guest speaker. Everything (even the parking! ) will be at no cost to attendees! This means space is limited and though free\, you must pre-register to attend.\n\nWe are excited and honored to h ave the legendary Lockheed Martin Fellow\, Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering (CASE) member\, member of National Academy of Engineering and IEEE Fellow\, Dr. Vladimir Blasko to speak on the topic of “Control and Tracking of Periodic Waveforms and Disturbance Elimination in 3-Phase Converters and Drives.” Additional event details can be found below.\n\n Talk Title:\n\nControl and Tracking of Periodic Waveforms and Disturbance Elimination in 3-Phase Converters and Drives\n\nAbstract:\n\nOver last 50 years industrial drives have been subject to significant development and i mprovements. The development was driven primarily by the advances or power electronics devices transitioning from thyristors with soft switching com mutation over silicon-based junction device (slow BJT and faster IGBTs)\, towards modern nowadays drives\, with SiC and GaN\, very fast switching - channel devices. Power devices have been driving size\, efficiency\, and t he development of power converter topologies. Operation and performances w ere further significantly influenced by advancements in control hardware ( combinations of microprocessors and FPGAs) and control algorithms with mod el-based design\, reaching nowadays amazing flexibility and creativity in implementation.\n\nA historic perspective\, evolution\, and common theoret ical framework for control\, tracking and elimination of periodic disturba nces/harmonics with arbitrary waveforms with focus on applications in elec trical drives and power electronics will be presented. Three different app roaches from three different fields\, namely from classical-general-contro l\, electrical drives and adaptive noise canceling will be analyzed.\n\nTh e internal model principle\, originating from control community\, will be introduced first as it provides a general and elegant solution for trackin g and elimination of (a) DC type of signals (b) harmonic - sine and cosine signals and (c) repetitive - arbitrary periodic waveforms. After that\, a s a second approach\, the synchronous reference frame current regulators a re reviewed as broadly used and still dominant for current control in elec trical drives. The synchronous regulators have difficulty to control disto rted current having direct and inverse components. As a remedy\, a combina tion of two separate synchronous regulators rotating in synchronous frames aligned with direct and inverse components are combined. It be shown that after the transformation of integral parts of combined direct and inverse synchronous regulators into stationary reference frame\, a single harmoni c regulator in stationary reference is derived. Adaptive Noise Canceling ( ANC) algorithm broadly used in digital signal and acoustic noise processin g will be discussed as a third option and demonstrated for current control and selective harmonic elimination in grid tied inverters. It will be sho wn that linear combiner and lest mean square (LMS) algorithm as parts of A NC have the same transfer function as a harmonic regulator and therefore c an perform the same function.\n\nHigh level of similarity and results betw een the approaches in three different fields (control\, signal processing and power electronics) will be shown and performances of different regulat ors demonstrated through simulation. Experimental results will be presente d to demonstrate performances and capability.\n\nAbout the speaker:\n\nDr. Vladimir Blasko received PhD\, MSc and BSc\, from the University of Zagre b\, Croatia all in Electrical Engineering. He holds the position of LM Fel low at Sikorsky Aircraft Corp.
