Instruments and Systems: Monitoring, Control, and Diagnostics Annotation << Back Application Methods of the Resistive Type Superconducting Current Limiters for Power Systems I.A. FATKHULOV, T.A. VOLKOVA The issues related to improving the oil production efficiency by optimizing the control system of the electric drive of the pumping station are discussed in thisarticle. The simulation of the two-, three- and five-level inverter of the frequency converter of the electric drive control system in Matlab Simulink is carried out, and the simulation results are presented, on the basis of which it is concluded that the use of a higher-level inverter is preferable, since it improves the quality of the output voltage, which leads to the provision of the specifi ed electrical parameters of the electric drive and, as a result, to reduce energy consumption and increase the reliability of the entire pumping system. Keywords: current limiters, superconducting current limiters, current limiting methods, the feasibility of superconducting current limiters application. DOI: 10.25791/pribor.8.2021.1281 Pp. 09-16.
