Variable reactors have been a vital component of power networks for decades, where they have been used as fault-current limiting devices or for reactive power compensation. Traditionally, modifying the inductance of predominantly mechanically operated variable reactors requires seconds to minutes. In contrast, virtual air gap (VAG) reactors can change the inductance within milliseconds, potentially improving power system stability. Existing dynamic models of VAG reactors cannot capture the entire system dynamics, limiting their applicability for simulations in the time-domain. This research presents two dynamic VAG reactor models, one with and one without core losses. The models capture all significant system dynamics using electromagnetic principles and VAG reactor flux linkage behavior. The proposed models were experimentally validated using a small VAG reactor. Over a broad operating range, both models accurately reproduce the dynamic behavior, transient response, and dominant harmonics of the small VAG reactor. Consequently, the models may be used for a variety of applications, such as timedomain simulations, harmonic analysis, and the development of suitable controllers for VAG reactors. In addition, engineers may use the core loss omitting model as a VAG reactor design tool, as the actual reactor is not required for modeling.Index Terms-Dynamic model, finite element method (FEM), variable reactor, virtual air gap (VAG).

Economic dispatch in the standard power system network frequently prioritizes instant economic gains while overlooking the detrimental environmental effects of gas discharges from thermal power stations. Economic emission dispatch (EED) has received a lot of consideration in current years as a way to alleviate this shortage. The unpredictability and intermittence of renewable energy sources like wind and solar power are raising the difficulty of electric grid planning as renewable production penetration rises. This research proposes a modified MMOCE to improve dispatch efficiency with considerable renewable energy consumption. A congestion calculation method and a new external storage process are added to the traditional kernel function method to address multi-objective optimization issues. The energy and transportation sectors are two of the most significant producers of GHG emissions. Improved vehicle productivity is a partial answer, but to limit the rate of GHG emissions, it is important to use RESs in the network. It is, however, critical to evaluate the efficacy of each approach. In this research, the environmental and economic aspects of employing RESs will be examined using a mixture of generating cost and GHG emissions from the two businesses stated. To overcome the ELD problem, an enhanced PSO is employed. However, solutions for reducing time consumption for the high-dimensional ELD issue are not considered in this study.
