Nas etapas desenvolvidas, foram feitos botões de cobrecromo (CuCr) e cobre-zircônio (CuZr) em um forno a arco elétrico de eletrodo não consumível, sendo esses botões, posteriormente, fundidos junto com cargas de cobre em um cadinho de alumina (Al2O3) inserido no interior de um vaso de aço inoxidável, que serviu como suporte. Após a fusão dos botões e cargas, o banho foi vazado em uma coquilha de cobre, obtendo-se os tarugos da liga de cobre. Dos tarugos em estado bruto de fusão, foram retiradas amostras para ensaios de dureza Vickers. Nesses tarugos foi feito um tratamento térmico de homogeneização a 910 °C por 2 h. Os tarugos foram posteriormente trabalhados mecanicamente a frio por forjamento rotativo seguido de trefilação, para obtenção final dos fios no calibre de 2,174 mm. Os fios passaram por dois tratamentos térmicos de recristalização, um a 510 °C por 1 h e outro de 480 °C por 5 h. Os fios foram caracterizados mecanicamente por ensaios de tração e de dureza e os resultados foram comparados com dados experimentais da literatura. / Dissertação (Mestrado) / IPEN/D / Instituto de Pesquisas Energeticas e Nucleares - IPEN-CNEN/SP

Com o intuito de executar missões de monitoramento autônomo, a técnica desenvolvida visa estimar o valor da interferência eletromagnética produzida por linhas de transmissão de energia em alta tensão para que seja possível aplicar a correção necessária. Essa estimação e´ feita a partir do modelo matemático do campo eletromagnético da linha, que leva em consideração a posição, corrente da linha, sistema físico de transmissão, entre outros. Para a avaliação dos resultados, utilizou-se os índices de performance não intrusivos que levam em consideração a integral absoluta do erro (IAE) e a integral do erro quadrático (ISE). Os resultados foram considerados eficientes e aplicáveis com base nos índices de desempenho, permitindo que o quadrotor executasse todas as missões como planejadas, sendo possível ainda a diminuição da distância entre o veículo e a linha de transmissão que, por consequência, permite uma análise mais detalhada e aumenta a qualidade do monitoramento e identificação de avarias ao longo do percurso. / This work aims to apply the Extended Kalman Filter technique with colored noise to a quadrotor-type aircraft to attenuate electromagnetic interference from power trans-mission lines in order to increase the reliability and safety of nearby flights. To perform autonomous monitoring missions, the developed technique aims to estimate the value of the electromagnetic interference produced by high voltage power transmission lines, which makes possible to apply the necessary correction. This estimation is made from the mathematical model of the power line electromagnetic field, which takes into ac-count the position, line current, physical transmission system, among others. In order to evaluate the results, it was used non-intrusive performance indexes that take into account the integrated absolute error (IAE) and the integrated square error (ISE). The results were considered efficient and applicable based on performance indices, allowing the operator to perform all the missions as planned, and the distance between the vehicle and the transmission line can be reduced which, consequently, result in a more detailed analysis and increases the monitoring quality and the faults identification along the route.

Secure operation of electric power grids fundamentally relies on their dynamical stability properties. For the third-order model, a paradigmatic model that captures voltage dynamics, three routes to instability are established in the literature: a pure rotor angle instability, a pure voltage instability, and one instability induced by the interplay of both. Here, we demonstrate that one of these routes, the pure voltage instability, requires infinite voltage amplitudes and is, thus, nonphysical. We show that voltage collapse dynamics nevertheless exist in the absence of any voltage instabilities.

The electricity is transported from generation centers to consumers through Transmission Lines (TLs), which in Brazil have significant dimensions, given the continental size of the country, his predominantly hydro power plant generation, located long distances from major centers consumption. To ensure compliance of this high demand, often the electric power companies overload these TLs, generating undesirable effects, such as the formation of arrow in the conductors, for example. Monitoring of TL operating conditions is key part, therefore, to ensure system availability and security. This work aims in this context to present a method to assist in the monitoring of three-phase TLs of simple circuit based on measurement of electric and magnetic fields of the line and in application of an optimization procedure based on Particle Swarm Optimization metaheuristic, with a topology denominated Multi-Ring, to estimate simultaneously the values of current, voltage, cable-ground clearance of conductors and distance between phases, in a cross section of the line, assisting electric power companies and the National Electric System Operator (ONS) in the monitoring task. The good results achieved, combined with its simplicity of implementation compared to other methods and its robustness, indicate their suitability for estimating these parameters. Associated with this, the reasonably low times obtained in the execution make it promising for use by the electric power company and by the system operator as an auxiliary tool in monitoring TLs. / O mundo atual demanda alta disponibilidade de energia elétrica para equipamentos diversos, em um contexto em que predomina o uso intensivo de tecnologia. A energia elétrica é transportada dos centros de geração até os consumidores por meio de Linhas de Transmissão (LTs), que no Brasil possuem significativas dimensões, dados o tamanho continental do país e a matriz de geração predominantemente hídrica e localizada a longas distâncias dos grandes centros de consumo. Para assegurar o atendimento dessa alta demanda, muitas vezes as concessionárias do sistema elétrico sobrecarregam essas LTs, gerando efeitos indesejáveis como a formação de flecha nos condutores, por exemplo. O monitoramento das condições de operação da LT é peça chave, portanto, para garantir a disponibilidade e segurança do sistema. Este trabalho visa, nesse contexto, apresentar um método que auxilie no monitoramento de LTs trifásicas de circuito simples, com base na medição dos campos elétrico e magnético gerados pela linha e na aplicação de um procedimento de otimização baseado na metaheurística de Otimização por Enxame de Partículas (do inglês, Particle Swarm Optimization), com uma topologia denominada Multi-Ring, para estimar simultaneamente os valores da corrente, tensão, altura cabo-solo dos condutores e distância entre fases, em uma seção transversal da linha, podendo auxiliar as concessionárias e o Operador Nacional do Sistema Elétrico (ONS) na tarefa de monitoramento. Os bons resultados alcançados, aliados à maior simplicidade de implementação em relação a outros métodos e à sua robustez, indicam sua adequação para a estimação desses parâmetros. Associado a isso, os tempos razoavelmente baixos obtidos na execução o tornam promissor para aplicação por concessionárias e pelo operador do sistema como ferramenta auxiliar no monitoramento de LTs.

Distance relays due to their selectivity and operating speed are used in HV/EHV line protection. The dynamic nature of Mho characteristic, which happens to be most primitive technique in line protection implemented with distance relaying, is built by using the measurement of local voltage and current signals. These signals have been influenced substantially by fault resistance and the source impedance feeding the line. In case of different generation sources, the source impedance and fault characteristic also change accordingly. Environmental benefit of wind turbine technology is making it a potential source of energy. These wind turbine-generating units (WTGU) use rugged induction/synchronous machines along with power electronics converters as controlling equipment. This gives a new challenge to distance relays, as the fault current contribution of these sources depends on the converter operational principle. In this thesis a typical wind farm of Indian systems are modeled in an IN-HOUSE tool developed as part of fault analysis on wind farm system. Directly connected and front-end converter based wind turbines with their interconnections are modeled in this simulation tool. Fault voltage and current waveforms are obtained for all types of wind turbine-generating units with both radial and LILO (Loop in Loop out) connection. PSCAD based modeling has been done for DFIG type of wind turbines. The fault waveforms are generated to evaluate relay performance. Five case studies having both Radial and Loop in Loop out (LILO) connection of wind farms are simulated. These case studies generate approximately 20000 cases, which are analyzed for distance relay performance studies. In addition, the analysis is further verified on relay hardware having three characteristics, namely Self Polarized Mho (SPM), Quadrature Polarized Mho (QPM) and Quadrilateral (QUAD) characteristics. The detailed studies are carried out in this thesis to ensure and suggest the system operators with appropriate relay characteristics to be used for transmission line protection in the case of wind farms interconnected to Grid. Based on the studies carried out in the thesis, LILO connection has no impact on distance relay characteristic. In radially connected wind farms, grid side relay will operate reliably for all types of faults. It has been recommended in the thesis that wind farm side distance relay characteristics should be adjusted based on the types of wind turbines (Type-1, Type-2, Type-3 and Type-4). Based on the investigations carried out in the thesis, voltage based phase selector has been recommended for Type-4 WTGU based wind farms.

The transmission line (TL) tower is an important component in electrical network system. These towers consist of members (angle sections) and connections (bolted connections) plus foundation, which act together to resist externally applied loads. The latticed towers are used to support conductors in transmission network for transmission and distribution of electricity. These towers are constructed in large numbers all over the world. The connections in electric TL classical latticed towers are peculiar compared to other types of bolted connections in buildings and bridges because (i) the angle members are connected directly or through gusset plates with bolts, (ii) the eccentric application of load due to the non-coincidence of centroid axes of angle members near the connection and (iii) members are designed as beam column element to sustain tensile or compressive forces. Bearing type bolts are used in TL towers in preference to friction type bolts, because they (i) connect thin walled angle members, (ii) are easy to use for erection at all heights, (iii) can be galvanized, (iv)erosion of galvanizing can be remedied and (v) do not require skilled personnel for installation. However, these connections are subjected to reversal of stresses due to wind load. Damage in the bolted connections generally occur due to loosening of bolts due to stress reversals (Feenstra et al. (2005) [23). The damage induced after extreme wind and earthquake may lead to collapse of the whole tower. The failure of a TL tower results in power shut down, which has huge impact on national economy. Hence, the structural safety and reliable performance of these towers are extremely important. The design of TL tower is based on minimum weight philosophy. The TL towers are highly repetitive and therefore, their designs need to be commercially competitive. The TL tower design has the following deficiencies such as misappropriate design assumptions, deficit detailing, defects in material, errors in fabrication, force fitting of members during erection, variation in grade of bolts, improper gusset plate detailing, notch cutting of member, vocalization of bolt holes, etc. Hence, to check the design and detailing aspects of members along with bolted connections and to study the behavior of tower under complex loading conditions, the prototype testing of tower is made mandatory requirement in many countries throughout the world. The structural behavior of TL tower is determined from its deflection response. Thus, the full scale testing of the towers is the only way that one can counteract the un conservatism due to structural analysis. The premature failure of TL towers occurs during prototype testing due to deficiencies in joint detailing, uncertainties in framing eccentricity, force fitting of members, unequal force distribution in bolts and gusset plate connections, etc. To have better structural response of TL tower to be tested, there is need to develop reliable model for bolted connections in TL towers. The bolted connection model plays an important role in determining the deflection response and predicting the premature member buckling failure of TL towers. The issues related to prototype testing of full scale TL towers such as fabrication errors, force fitting and notch cutting of members, application of loads, joint and crossarm detailing are discussed. The need to develop bolt slip model to simulate the actual behaviour of bolted connection in TL towers is also discussed. The bolted connections in TL towers play an important role in determining its structural behavior. The angle members used in TL towers are subjected to bi-axial bending in addition to axial load. The slip will occur in the bolted connections, due to the provision 1.5 mm bolt hole clearance. In the conventional Finite Element Analysis (FEA), the bolted connections are modeled as pin joint assuming the axial load transfer. The deflection predicted from pin joint analysis in TL towers generally does not match with experimental results. The analytical and experimental deflection value varies in the range of 30 to 50%. Hence, there is need to develop model to account bolt slip for accurate deflection and dynamic characteristic prediction of TL towers. Experimental and analytical investigations have been carried out to develop and validate bolt slip model for bolted connections in TL towers. All six degrees of freedom (both translational and rotational) have been considered to simulate the exact behaviour of bolted connections in TL towers. The model is developed based on experimental results of Ungkurapinan’s bolt slip model for axial stiffness. The rotational stiffness is formulated based on the component level experiment conducted on lap joint made of steel angle with single and double bolt subjected to tensile loading. The axial and rotational stiffness for different stages of bolt tightening is also formulated based on component level experimental investigation on lap joint. The proposed model is validated by comparing with experimental results at sub-structural level on full scale king post truss subjected to tensile loading. Further the bolt slip model is validated for different bolt tightening and failure prediction of TL tower sub panel subjected to tensile loading. Finally the proposed model is also validated for full scale TL tower for deflection prediction. NE NASTRAN, a nonlinear finite element analysis (FEA) software is used for analytical simulation and the load-deflection predictions, which are compared with the corresponding experimental results. The experimental and analytical results are in good agreement with each other. The steel pole structures are replacing the conventional lattice towers, because they have smaller plan dimension and occupy less space, when compared to lattice towers. The steel pole structures are dynamically sensitive structures and the determination of their natural frequency is extremely important. For the calculation of wind load through gust factor method, the preliminary estimation of natural frequency is required. Hence, the primary step involved in dynamic analysis is the evaluation of its natural frequency. Hence, a simplified model is proposed based on model order reduction technique for the evaluation of natural frequency of TL towers and steel pole structures. For the development of base line model to detect damage in TL towers, the natural frequency has to be updated. A semi empirical approach is proposed based on the deflection by using the proposed bolt slip model. The proposed approach of updating natural frequency is validated for different cases of member damage in TL tower sub panel, such as removal of tension, compression and hip bracing members. The transmission pole structures accumulate damage during their service life. Damage in these structures will cause a change in stiffness of the system and the physical properties of these structures, such as modal frequencies and mode shapes. Hence in the present study, the damage localization study based on modified modal strain energy approach is carried out for steel pole structures and the location of damage is identified correctly. To prevent premature failure of towers during its service life testing and failure analysis of TL towers is a mandatory requirement. In the present study, forensic failure investigation of a full scale TL tower due to deficient design of a redundant member is emphasized and the remedial measures are explained in detail. The stub failure of TL tower due to reduction in cross sectional area due to unfilled bolt hole is also discussed. To investigate the effect of unfilled bolt holes on the compression capacity of leg member, detailed FEA is carried out and compared with experimental results. The reason for failure of 9 m roof top communication tower due to redundant member deficiency is also discussed. The importance of guyed tower accessories in the guy rope design of 7 m roof top guyed pole structure is also investigated. Finally, failure investigation of compression bracing member, which has failed during testing of TL tower sub panel has been investigated. The failure load is predicted by using the proposed bolt slip model in the analysis. Thus the overall research contributions emerging from this thesis are, i) development of bolt slip model accounting for rotational stiffness, ii) development of direct method of damage detection for steel pole structures based on modified modal strain energy approach, iii) development of simplified model for prediction of natural frequency of TL tower and steel pole structures, iv) development of model updating technique through natural frequency based on semi-empirical approach and v) prediction of failure load for TL tower panel using the proposed bolt slip model.
