No. of bitstreams: 1 thainansantostheodoro.pdf: 6277443 bytes, checksum: 64fdae570574b42d13c86c42cedaca9e (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-09-05 / Esta dissertação apresenta uma técnica de simulação híbrida no domínio do tempo de programas de transitórios eletromecânicos e eletromagnéticos usando o MatLab/ Simulink, a qual confere eficiência computacional e precisão, tanto na análise de sistemas de potência, quanto de controle, sobretudo em situações nas quais fenômenos eletromagnéticos e eletromecânicos se sobrepõe, como é o caso da integração de grandes parques eólicos. Para que ocorra a interação entre os dois programas é necessário a adequação das grandezas de fasores para formas de onda e vice versa, assim, é apresentada uma nova abordagem de extração de fasores instantâneos a partir do DSOGI com boa eficiência computacional com perda desprezível de informações. A comunicação regular entre os programas é feita através do protocolo de comunicação baseado na plataforma TCP/IP, que possibilita a representação de modelos distribuídos e a divisão do esforço computacional. São apresentados resultados de simulação para a integração de um parque eólico, representado por um aerogerador DFIG, à uma rede de 29 barras e 7 geradores. Todo o sistema foi representado em um programa de transitórios eletromagnéticos para comparação com os resultados do programa híbrido. Os resultados se mostraram encorajadores já que houve diminuição de quase 70% do tempo de processamento. / This dissertation presents a hybrid simulation technique in the time domain of electromechanical and electromagnetic transient programs using the MatLab/Simulink, which confers computational efficiency and precision, in both power system and control analysis, mainly in situations where electromagnetic and electromechanical phenomena overlap, such as the integration of large wind farms. In order to guarantee the interaction between the two programs it is necessary to adapt the phasor magnitudes to waveforms and vice versa, thus, a new approach is presented for the extraction of instantaneous phasors using the DSOGI approach, with good computational efficiency and negligible loss of information. The regular communication between the programs is done through the communication protocol based on the TCP/IP platform, which allows the representation of distributed models and enables the division of computational effortt between computers. Simulation results are presented for the integration of a wind farm, represented by a DFIG, to a network of 29 bars and 7 generators. The entire system was represented in an electromagnetic transient program for comparison with the results of the hybrid program. The results were encouraging since there was a decrease of almost 70 % of the processing time.

Fault Location and Classification for Transmission Line Based on Wavelet Transform

Wang, Qiuhong January 2016 (has links)
With the rapid development of power systems, locating and classifying faults is critical to the continuity and reliability of the transmission system. In this thesis, a traveling-wave based technique for fault location and classification on high voltage and extremely high-voltage transmission lines is proposed. The traveling-wave based protection has the advantage of fast response and not being affected by power swing and CTs saturation. In this thesis, the transient characteristics of single line to ground fault (which can be divided into solid fault and arcing fault) and lightning disturbance are extracted by using Clarke transformation and wavelet transformation. The differences among recorded traveling wave arrival times are used to calculate the fault location, and the wavelet energy at different frequency bands is utilized to distinguish between lightning and different kinds of fault. A criterion is proposed according to the energy ratio. The proposed scheme can identify different faults correctly and quickly. In addition, the influence of busbar capacitance, current transformer and coupling capacitor voltage transformer are considered. The simulation of a transmission system has been made in ATP/EMTP, and the calculations have been made in MATLAB. / Med den snabba utvecklingen av kraftsystem är lokalisering och klassificering av fel avgörande för kontinuiteten och tillförlitligheten hos överföringssystem. I denna avhandling föreslås en vågrörelse-baserad teknik för fellokalisering och klassificering av kraftledningar för högspänning och extremt hög spänning. Vågrörelsebaserat skydd har fördelen av snabb respons och att det inte påverkas av kraft fluktuationer och strömtransformsmättnad. I denna avhandling tas momentana egenskaperna av jord till ledningsfel (vilket kan delas in i stumt jordfel och ljusbågefel) och blixtstörning fram med hjälp av Clarke transformation och wavelet transformation. Skillnaderna mellan de uppmätta vågrörelsernas ankomsttider används för att beräkna fellokalisering och wavelet energin vid olika frekvensband, vilket används för att skilja mellan blixt och olika sorters fel. Ett kriterium föreslås enligt energiförhållandet. Det föreslagna systemet kan identifiera olika sorters fel korrekt och snabbt. Dessutom övervägs påverkan av strömskenans kapacitans, strömtransformator och kopplingskondensatorspänningsomvandlare. Simuleringen av transmissionssystem har gjorts med ATP/EMTP, och beräkningarna är gjorda med MATLAB.

Pattern Recognition of Power Systems Voltage Stability Using Real Time Simulations

Beeravolu, Nagendrakumar 17 December 2010 (has links)
The basic idea deals with detecting the voltage collapse ahead of time to provide the operators a lead time for remedial actions and for possible prevention of blackouts. To detect cases of voltage collapse, we shall create methods using pattern recognition in conjunction with real time simulation of case studies and shall develop heuristic methods for separating voltage stable cases from voltage unstable cases that result in response to system contingencies and faults. Using Real Time Simulator in Entergy-UNO Power & Energy Research Laboratory, we shall simulate several contingencies on IEEE 39-Bus Test System and compile the results in two categories of stable and unstable voltage cases. The second stage of the proposed work mainly deals with the study of different patterns of voltage using artificial neural networks. The final stage deals with the training of the controllers in order to detect stability of power system in advance.

Determination of Harmonics for Modeling Integration of Solar Generation to The Electric Grid

Gokarapu, Ramu 20 May 2011 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to determine a model for analysis of integrating solar generation to the electric grid .The model is then used in determining Harmonics of Integrating solar panels to the electric grid that are based on parallel or series combination of solar cells. To study integration of solar generation to the grid, we have used solar series and solar parallel models in EMTP (Electro Magnetic Transient Program) real time simulation software. When integrating solar generation models to the grid, due to DC to AC conversion and due to variation of solar energy intensity, the electric utility shall experience undesired harmonics that may impact quality of service to other customers in the grid. This study identifies one method of analysis for determining harmonic content of solar panels before solar generation can be integrated in to the electric grid.

Directional Comparison Bus Protection Using Superimposed Partial Operating Current Characteristics

Baral, Bishwas 23 May 2019 (has links)
Various directional comparison bus protection methods including widely used superimposed directional element method need to have both voltages and currents from all feeders connected to the zone of protection to find the direction of current for detecting a bus fault or a line fault. The purpose of the thesis is to present a new technique for directional comparison bus protection to discriminate a bus fault from line fault and normal condition. The new technique, which is implementing superimposed directional element method to modify partial operating current characteristics (POC) method to superimposed POC (SPOC) method, does not use voltages from feeders, hence capacitor voltage transformers (CVTs) are no longer needed in the zone of protection. The proposed technique was implemented in 4-bus and IEEE 14-bus test system and was tested using different fault cases including CT saturation and high impedance fault. The proposed technique, SPOC method was compared with POC method with both methods implemented in same test systems and tested with same fault cases. The results show that the proposed technique is successful to detect bus faults with high accuracy and high speed.

Fault Location on the High Voltage Series Compensated Power Transmission Networks

Kapuduwage, Sarath, skapuduwage@hotmail.com January 2007 (has links)
Nowadays power transmission networks are capable of delivering contracted power from any supplier to any consumer over a large geographic area under market control, and thus transmission lines are incorporated with FACTs series compensated devices to increase the power transfer capability with improvement to system integrity. Conventional fault location methods developed in the past many years are not suitable for FACTs transmission networks. The obvious reason is that FACTs devices in transmission networks introduce non-linearity in the system and hence linear fault detection methods are no longer valid. Therefore, it is still a matter of research to investigate developing new fault detection techniques to cater for modern transmission network configurations and solve implementation issues maintaining required accuracy. This PhD research work is based on developing an accurate and robust new fault location algorithm for series compensated high voltage transmission lines, considering many issues such as transmission line models, configurations with series compensation features. Building on the existing knowledge, a new algorithm has been developed for the estimation of fault location using the time domain approach. In this algorithm, instantaneous fault signals from the transmission line ends are measured and applied to the algorithm to calculate the distance to fault. The new algorithm was tested on two port transmission line model developed using EMTP/ATP software and measured fault data from the simulations are exported to the MATLAB space to run the algorithm. Broad range of faults has been simulated considering various fault cases to test the algorithm and statistical results obtained. It was observed that the accuracy of location of fault on series compensated transmission line using this algorithm is in the range from 99.7 % to 99.9% in 90% of fault cases. In addition, this algorithm was further improved considering many practical issues related to modern series compensated transmission lines (with TCSC var compensators) achieving similar accuracies in the estimation of fault location.

Design and Optimization of Intelligent PI Controllers (Fuzzy and Neuro-Fuzzy) for HVDC Transmission System

Multani, Munish 01 August 2010 (has links)
This thesis deals with enhancing the performance of Fuzzy Logic (FL) based PI controllers for High Voltage Direct Current Transmission Systems (HVDC) by optimizing the key parameters i.e. membership functions (MFs) and fuzzy rule base in the controllers design. In the first part of the thesis, an adaptive Fuzzy PI controller is designed and the effect of various MF shapes, widths and distribution on the performance of a FL controlled HVDC system under different system conditions is studied with the aim of selecting a MF which minimizes the total control error. Simulated results show that the shape, width and distribution of a MF influences the performance of the FL controller and concludes that nonlinear MFs (i.e. Gaussian) offer a more better choice than linear (i.e. Triangular) MFs as the former provides a smoother transition at the switching points and thus propose a better controller. In the second part of the thesis, a Neuro-Fuzzy (NF) controller to update the fuzzy rule base with changing system conditions is proposed, which in turn adjusts the PI gains of a conventional PI controller. Results from simulations illustrate the potential of the proposed control scheme as the NF controller successfully adapts to different system conditions and is able to minimize the total current error. / UOIT

Damping power system oscillations using a phase imbalanced hybrid series capacitive compensation scheme

Pan, Sushan 13 January 2011
Interconnection of electric power systems is becoming increasingly widespread as part of the power exchange between countries as well as regions within countries in many parts of the world. There are numerous examples of interconnection of remotely separated regions within one country. Such are found in the Nordic countries, Argentina, and Brazil. In cases of long distance AC transmission, as in interconnected power systems, care has to be taken for safeguarding of synchronism as well as stable system voltages, particularly in conjunction with system faults. With series compensation, bulk AC power transmission over very long distances (over 1000 km) is a reality today. These long distance power transfers cause, however, the system low-frequency oscillations to become more lightly damped. As a result, many power network operators are taking steps to add supplementary damping devices in their systems to improve the system security by damping these undesirable oscillations. With the advent of thyristor controlled series compensation, AC power system interconnections can be brought to their fullest benefit by optimizing their power transmission capability, safeguarding system stability under various operating conditions and optimizing the load sharing between parallel circuits at all times. This thesis reports the results of digital time-domain simulation studies that are carried out to investigate the effectiveness of a phase imbalanced hybrid single-phase-Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) compensation scheme in damping power system oscillations in multi-machine power systems. This scheme which is feasible, technically sound, and has an industrial application potential, is economically attractive when compared with the full three-phase TCSC which has been used for power oscillations damping.<p> Time-domain simulations are conducted on a benchmark model using the ElectroMagnetic Transients program (EMTP-RV). The results of the investigations have demonstrated that the hybrid single-phase-TCSC compensation scheme is very effective in damping power system oscillations at different loading profiles.

A Partitioning Approach for Parallel Simulation of AC-Radial Shipboard Power Systems

Uriarte, Fabian Marcel 2010 May 1900 (has links)
An approach to parallelize the simulation of AC-Radial Shipboard Power Systems (SPSs) using multicore computers is presented. Time domain simulations of SPSs are notoriously slow, due principally to the number of components, and the time-variance of the component models. A common approach to reduce the simulation run-time of power systems is to formulate the electrical network equations using modified nodal analysis, use Bergeron's travelling-wave transmission line model to create subsystems, and to parallelize the simulation using a distributed computer. In this work, an SPS was formulated using loop analysis, defining the subsystems using a diakoptics-based approach, and the simulation parallelized using a multicore computer. A program was developed in C# to conduct multithreaded parallel-sequential simulations of an SPS. The program first represents an SPS as a graph, and then partitions the graph. Each graph partition represents a SPS subsystem and is computationally balanced using iterative refinement heuristics. Once balanced subsystems are obtained, each SPS subsystem's electrical network equations are formulated using loop analysis. Each SPS subsystem is solved using a unique thread, and each thread is manually assigned to a core of a multicore computer. To validate the partitioning approach, performance metrics were created to assess the speed gain and accuracy of the partitioned SPS simulations. The simulation parameters swept for the performance metrics were the number of partitions, the number of cores used, and the time step increment. The results of the performance metrics showed adequate speed gains with negligible error. An increasing simulation speed gain was observed when the number of partitions and cores were augmented, obtaining maximum speed gains of <30x when using a quadcore computer. Results show that the speed gain is more sensitive to the number partitions than is to the number of cores. While multicore computers are suitable for parallel-sequential SPS simulations, increasing the number of cores does not contribute to the gain in speed as much as does partitioning. The simulation error increased with the simulation time step but did not influence the partitioned simulation results. The number of operations caused by protective devices was used to determine whether the simulation error introduced by partitioning SPS simulations produced a inconsistent system behavior. It is shown, for the time step sizes uses, that protective devices did not operate inadvertently, which indicates that the errors did not alter RMS measurement and, hence, were non-influential.
