1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Power quality issues, which are mainly due to power electronic devices that are invariably used not only in domestic sector but also industries, still persist despite various mitigation strategies. The slow but steady invasion of Electric vehicles or Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) in recent years, in the automobile sector, adds woes to the power quality issues further. Majority of the charging systems presently available for charging PEVs are unidirectional and so supports Grid to Vehicle (G2V) mode only as the bidirectional integration of those vehicles into the grid is still a big challenge. However, Vehicle to Grid (V2G) support mode also deserves an equal importance as the PEV charger with V2G mode of operation is capable of supporting grid functionalities also, on need basis, which largely depends on the power circuit topology and controller topology it uses. Hence, in this work an improved controller topology has been designed and developed to alleviate the burdens on the grid. Support for active power demand, voltage swell and sag mitigation, in addition to catering its prime objective of charging the batteries are focused. A Second Order Generalized Integrator Phase Locked Loop (SOGI-PLL) based controller has been developed and implemented in the proposed work to improve the transient response, apart from controlling the steady-state oscillations of the grid to which it is connected to. A single phase non-isolated bidirectional PEV charger with proposed control topology has been simulated in MATLAB-Simulink for vehicle support and grid support mode of operations. The simulation proves the satisfactory operation of the proposed charger in the four quarters of active power and reactive power (PQ) plane, thus complies the design objectives of bidirectional power flow. The results obtained from the simulation show improved performance in terms of DC link voltage overshoot, steady-state oscillations, overall efficiency, voltage and current Total Harmonic Distortions (THD).
