Three Dimensional Hyperbolic Grid GenerationDincgez, Umut Can 01 April 2006 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis analyzes procedure of generation of hyperbolic grids formulated by two constraints, which specify grid orthogonality and cell volume. The procedure was applied on a wide range of geometries and high quality two and three dimensional hyperbolic grids were generated by using grid control and smoothing procedures, which supply grid clustering in all directions and prevent grid deformation (grid shock), respectively.

Direct AC control of grid assetsSastry, Jyoti 20 May 2011 (has links)
The objective of the proposed research is to investigate feasible approaches to dynamic control of the power grid. Growth in the demand for electric power, and an increase in the penetration of renewable energy resources are causing congestion on an already aging power grid. Conventional grid control involves the use of static assets that operate on long time scales. These assets provide no dynamic control on the grid, and are typically used for scheduled support. Existing solutions (FACTS devices) to dynamic grid control have seen minimal market penetration because of high cost and low reliability. The proposed research provides a solution for dynamic control of the power grid that augments existing grid assets with a thin AC converter (TACC) to realize enhanced dynamic control. The TACC is a direct AC converter with filter elements and no bulk energy storage that dynamically reflects the asset value on the grid. The converter has a fail-normal mode of operation that returns the asset to its initial operating state, thereby not degrading system reliability. Some applications of TACCs include Inverter-Less STATCOMs and Controllable Network Transformers, which are realized by augmenting shunt VAR capacitors and load tap changers respectively. The principle of virtual quadrature sources is proposed to enable conditioning of AC voltages and currents. The concept is a novel method to realize control of phase angle and, or harmonics in single-phase AC converters, with no bulk energy storage. This concept is used to control the TACC and provides the asset with significantly enhanced control capabilities. Scaling of the TACC to utility voltage and power levels has been addressed by proposing a novel multilevel direct AC converter. The concept proposes the use of commercially available low cost semiconductor devices to realize high power converters. The specific application chosen to validate the concept of TACCs, through a medium voltage design, is the Inverter-less STATCOM.

Operation and Control of HVDC Grids / Drift och Styrning av HVDC-nätBianchi, Adam, Nylander, Gabriel January 2018 (has links)
Meshed high-voltage direct current grids are becoming an increasingly important technology for integrating renewable energies into the power system. To control the grids in the best possible way, optimal converter and grid control strategies are needed. This project studies how a four-terminal high-voltage direct current grid is operated and controlled by implementing different grid and converter control strategies. The grid control strategies examined are centralized voltage control and distributed voltage control with and without deadband. Simulations are made in the software PSCAD. Different fault types on the grid are studied to investigate how the power flow and voltage level are affected. An optimal value for both the deadband width and droop constant has been identified. Moreover, the results indicate that centralized droop control is not a suitable grid control strategy, whereas distributed voltage control with and without deadband are. The fault study indicates no differences between distributed voltage control with and without deadband. The power flow and voltage levels are identical for all fault types. / Högspända likströmsnät spelar en allt större roll med att integrera förnyelsebar energi i våra elnät. För att styra dessa nät på bästa möjliga sätt krävs optimala omvandlar- och nätkontrollstrategier. I detta projekt studeras hur ett fyrterminalt högspänt likströmsnät kan styras och drivas genom att implementera olika omvandlar- och nätkontrollstrategier. De nätkontrollstrategier som studerats är centraliserad spänningskontroll och distribuerad spänningskontroll med och utan ett spänningsintervall. Alla simuleringar har utförts i programmet PSCAD. Olika fel i nätet har även studerats för att undersöka hur effektflödet och spänningsnivån påverkas. Ett optimalt värde på både spänningsintervallet och droop konstanten har identifierats. Dessutom har resultat som indikerar att centraliserad spänningskontroll inte är en lämplig nätkontrollstrategi erhållits, medan distribuerad spänningskontroll med och utan spänningsintervall är det. Felsimuleringarna påvisar ingen skillnad mellan distribuerad spänningskontroll med och utan spänningsintervall. Effektflödet och spänningsnivån är identiska för alla fel.

Design of a Future Residential DC MicrogridAndersson, Viktor, Gugolz, Max January 2022 (has links)
In the search for environmentally friendly methods to implement renewable energy in the power system residential microgrids have been proposed and proven. The direct current (DC) microgrid topology is a promising implementation of a microgrid system due to the increasing amount of DC-operated loads and production units expected in the near future. In this project, the proposed DC microgrid consists of a solar photovoltaic (PV) power source, a battery, a DC load, and an interlinking bidirectional converter to connect the microgrid to the external three-phase power grid. The PV system is controlled with a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm to maximise the power production in all weathers. The DC bus voltage is stabilised by the battery controller and a coordinated control scheme considering the electricity price and battery State of Charge (SOC) is implemented to govern the power exchange with the utility grid. Simulations of the system are shown to validate the functionality of the microgrid and the performance of the controllers in multiple scenarios. The proposed DC microgrid is proven to function in both utility grid-connected mode and in isolation from the utility grid. / I sökandet efter miljövänliga metoder att implementera förnybar energi i kraftsystemet har lokalt självförsörjande elsystem för bostäder föreslagits och visats fungera. Den likströmsbaserade topologin är en lovande implementering av ett sådant lokalt elsystem till följd av den ökande mängden likströmsdrivna laster och produktionsenheter som förväntas komma inom en snar framtid. I detta projekt består det föreslagna likströmsbaserade elsystemet av en solenergikälla, ett batteri, en likströmslast och en sammanlänkande dubbelriktad omvandlare för att ansluta det lokala elsystemet till det externa trefasiga elnätet. Solenergisystemet styrs med en maximal kraftpunktföljande algoritm för att maximera kraftproduktionen i alla väder. Likströmsbussens spänning stabiliseras av batteristyrenheten och ett samordnat styrschema som tar hänsyn till elpriset och batteriets laddningstillstånd implementeras för att styra energiutbytet med elnätet. Simuleringar av systemet presenteras för att validera mikronätets funktionalitet och styrteknikens prestanda i flera olika scenarier. Det föreslagna likströmsbaserade elsystemet visas fungera i både nätanslutet läge och isolerat från elnätet. / Kandidatexjobb i elektroteknik 2022, KTH, Stockholm

Hosting capacity for photovoltaics in Swedish distribution gridsWalla, Tobias January 2012 (has links)
For planning issues, it is useful to know the upper limit for photovoltaics (PV) in the electrical grid with current design and operation (defined as hosting capacity) and how this limit can be increased. Future costs for grid reinforcement can be avoided if measures are taken to implement smart grid technology in the distribution grid. The aim of this project is to identify challenges in Swedish electricity distribution grids with a high penetration of local generation of electricity from PV. The aim is also to help Swedish Distribution System Operators (DSOs) to better understand hosting capacity issues, and to see which room for PV integration there is before there is need for actions to maintain power quality. Three distribution grids are modelled and simulated in Matlab: Rural area, Residential area and City (Stockholm Royal Seaport). Since the project is a cooperation between Uppsala University and Fortum, three different representative grids from Fortum’s grid software ”Power Grid” have been used as input to a flexible simulation program developed at Uppsala University. The simulation includes Newton-Raphson power-flow computing but has also been improved with a model of the temperature dependency of the resistance. The results show that there is room for a lot of PV systems in the Swedish grids. When using voltage rise above 1.1 p.u. voltage as limitation, the hosting capacity 60% PV electricity generation as a fraction of the yearly load were determined for the rural grid and the suburban grid. For the city grid, which is very robust, the hosting capacity 325% was determined. When using overload as limitation, the hosting capacities 70%, 20% and 25%, were determined for the same grids.
