Modelling and grid integration of a 10 MW wave farm - Study of power quality with varying grid impedance angles and wave front incidence anglesUllah, Md Imran January 2020 (has links)
Grid connection of wave energy is one of the crucial remaining areas of development towards the commercialization of this renewable energy technology. One of the major challenges with the grid connection of the wave energy technology is power variability. The rapidly changing voltage and power production from very high peaks to lows, increases the complexity for the wave farm developers to reach an agreement with the grid owners to satisfy the grid compliance. Correspondingly, electrical network designs of the offshore wind sector also differ on some key features which includes the power variability, cable lengths, power ratings, connection layouts, sea depths and transmission distances. These differences present new challenges to engineers in adapting technology and knowhow from the wind industry wherever applicable; whereas in parts of the network where power ratings are <2 MW, new designs need to be derived. Hence, power system dynamic modelling of variable emerging wave energy puts a great field of research. CorPower Ocean AB is in the process of developing a 300-kW point absorber type Wave Energy Converter (WEC) that is a commercial fullscale prototype. In this regard, the thesis will discuss the topics of optimization of offshore wave energy electrical networks for farms primarily focused on a 10 MW rating. The modelling for RMS simulation, network efficiency, voltage profile and power quality analysis has been simulated on DIgSILENT PowerFactory. Grid connection compliance for voltage levels, voltage flicker and power factor has been evaluated against local site regulations and parameters for optimal efficiency and better power quality with respect to grid connection is discussed. The impact of grid impedance angle and the wave front incidence angle on the rating of wave farm being connected is also evaluated. The study leads to an optimized electrical layout of a wave farm which can tackle problems such as voltage flicker and varying power. The study also leads to the understanding of better layout for the point absorber with least transmission losses. This study can also be generalized for bigger wave farms in the future which will reduce the complexity and time for wave farms engineers while planning.

Provoz distribučních sítí s odporovými svářečkami / Operation of a distribution system with resistance weldersZelený, Miroslav January 2012 (has links)
This Diploma thesis deals with assessment of the influence of two fundamental types of resistance welders operation on chosen power quality parameters at the point of common coupling (PCC) of the power network. The assessed parameters of power quality are the total harmonic distortion of the supply voltage, asymmetry of the supply voltage and the level of short term flicker at the point of common coupling. The assessment is based on the comparison of the results of computer simulations done in PSCad 4.2.0 with the requirements of technical standards. The outcome of this thesis is the determination of allowable limits for physical and operation parameters for the general arrangement of a power distribution network and a resistance welder that should guarantee the power quality compliance.

Analyser av två VSC-HVDC-stationer genom långtidsmätningar med elkvalitetsmätare / Analysis of two VSC-HVDC stations through long-time measurements with power quality analyzersPettersson, Martin January 2018 (has links)
Gotland har länge präglats av mycket speciella lösningar och legat i framkant vad gäller ny teknik. Under ca 20 år har Gotland haft en VSC-HVDC-station som har stabiliserat spänningen i det gotländska nätet. HVDC Light har löst en del av de tekniska begränsningarna som hindrat utvecklingen av vindkraftverk. Anläggningen börjar lida mot slutet av sin tekniska livslängd och examensarbetet är ett första steg i utredningen för en eventuell ersättning. Med hjälp av elkvalitetsmätare kartlagdes prestanda och eventuella förbättringsområden. Den svenska stamnätsoperatören Svenska kraftnät har sedan 2016 haft en VSC-HVDC-station som använts för att utväxla energi till asynkrona systemet i Östeuropa. Svenska kraftnät har på senare tid velat utnyttja spänningsregleringsmöjligheterna och utreda mättekniska metoder. Elkvalitetsmätare placerades ut på lämpliga mätpunkter för att utreda anläggningens beteenden. ELSPEC G4500 elkvalitetsmätare installerades på Nordbalt och Gotlands HVDC Light för att mäta under sensommar till hösten 2017. Skillnader mellan CVT och IVT samt Rogowskispole och CT mättes. Valet av ELSPEC lämpade sig bra eftersom att inga triggningsvillkor behövdes som tillåter att man kan upptäcka små men viktiga avvikelser. Gotlands HVDC Light stabiliserar nätet främst mot spänningsdippar efter kortslutningar i 10 kV-elnätet och flimmer ifrån vindkraftsparkerna i ände 2. Märkeffekten för en uppdaterad anläggning kommer baseras på den kortslutningseffekt i 10 kV-nätet som kan utvecklas under anläggningens livstid. Spänningsregleringen ska baseras på en PI-regulator och ska kunna reglera fullt på 40 ms. Komponentspänningar kan användas för att ge reaktiv effekt på de faser som behöver det. Behovet mot flimmer ska baseras på en mätning i närmaste konsumtionscentrum, två mil från ände 2. Om behovet finns, ska en separat loop för flimmerkontroll som motverkar 1,5 Hz-komponenter implementeras utifrån en punkt ca 1,5 mil ifrån ände 2. Teknikvalet står mellan two-level generation 3 eller MMC, beroende på uppgradering eller ersättning. Många olika framtida scenarion påverkar HVDC Lights roll och oavsett, kommer mycket resurser behövas för Gotlands och HVDC Lights framtid. Det har observerats två beteenden på Nordbalt varav ena är långsam och det andra beteendet är snabbt. Det snabba beteendet uppstår när lågohmiga fel sker som också synkronmaskinerna tar hand om. Nordbalt kan hjälpa till för mindre spänningsvariationer om den varit snabbare likt beteendet vid lågohmiga fel. En stabilitetsbedömning behövs dock eftersom att snabbare beteende ökar risken för instabilitet. Eftersom att data mellan CVT och IVT skiljde sig mycket, upplystes mättekniska problem. Några lösningar diskuteras varav RCVT och PQSensor gås igenom grundligt. Alternativa lösningar som MoW och mobila enheter presenteras också vagt. Samtliga lösningar visade sig ha praktiska hinder, vilket försvårar genomförandet. Det uppmanas därför att man bör testa teknikerna i laborationsmiljö eftersom begränsat med studier gjorts på dessa samt att konkurrerande tillverkare uppger olika uppgifter. / Gotland has long been known for various special solutions and been on the leading edge regarding new technology. For the past 20 years Gotland has had a VSC-HVDC station that has stabilized the voltage in the Gotlandic grid. HVDC Light has solved some of the technical limitations that has hindered the growth of wind turbines. The station has almost reached the end of its technical lifespan and the thesis is a first step in the investigation for an eventual replacement. With power quality analyzers performance and improvements were investigated. The Swedish transmission system operator Svenska kraftnät have since 2016 had a VSCHVDC station that have been used to exchange energy to the asynchronous system in Eastern Europe. Svenska kraftnät has of lately wanted to take advantage of the voltage control capabilities and investigate measurement technologies. Power quality analyzers were installed on suitable connection points to investigate the behavior of the station. ELSPEC G4500 power quality analyzers were installed on Nordbalt’s and Gotland’s HVDC Light to measure during the late summer to fall of 2017. The differences between CVT and IVT, and Rogowski coil and CT were captured. The choice of ELSPEC suited well since no trigger conditions are needed which allows small but important errors to be discovered. Gotland’s HVDC Light stabilizes the grid mostly against voltage sags for faults in the 10 kVgrid and flicker from the wind farms in node 2. The rated power for an upgrade should be based on the 10 kV-grid short-circuit power to be developed during the station’s life span. The voltage control should be based on a PI-controller and should be able to transmit full power in 40 ms. Component voltages can be used to produce reactive power on the phases in need. The need against flicker should be based on measurements in the closest center of consumption, 2 miles from node 2. If it’s needed, a separate loop for flicker-control that prevents 1.5 Hz-components based on a point 1.5 mile from node 2 should be implemented. Depending on an upgrade or replacement, the topology can either be “two-level generation 3” or MMC. Many different future scenarios affect HVDC Light’s role and more resources will be required for Gotland’s and HVDC Light’s future. Two behaviors have been observed on Nordbalt where one is slow and the other behavior is fast. The fast behavior was only observed when low impedance faults occurs, that the synchronous generators also handles. Nordbalt can contribute to small voltage variations if it was faster, like the behavior for low impedance faults. A consideration in stability is needed since a faster behavior can lead to stability problems. Since the data between CVT and IVT differed a lot, metrology problems were discovered. Some solutions were discussed, of which RCVT and PQSensor was thoroughly reviewed. Alternative solutions like MoW and mobile units were also presented vaguely. All solutions showed practical difficulties, which complicates the implementation. It is therefore encouraged to test the technologies in a laboratory environment since few studies have been made on these and competing manufactures state different information.

Low phase noise 2 GHz Fractional-N CMOS synthesizer ICVeale, Gerhardus Ignatius Potgieter 13 September 2010 (has links)
Low noise low division 2 GHz RF synthesizer integrated circuits (ICs) are conventionally implemented in some form of HBT process such as SiGe or GaAs. The research in this dissertation differs from convention, with the aim of implementing a synthesizer IC in a more convenient, low-cost Si-based CMOS process. A collection of techniques to push towards the noise and frequency limits of CMOS processes, and possibly other IC processes, is then one of the research outcomes. In a synthesizer low N-divider ratios are important, as high division ratios would amplify in-band phase noise. The design methods deployed as part of this research achieve low division ratios (4 ≤ N ≤ 33) and a high phase comparison frequency (>100 MHz). The synthesizer IC employs a first-order fractional-N topology to achieve increased frequency tuning resolution. The primary N-divider was implemented utilising current mode logic (CML) and the fractional accumulator utilising conventional CMOS. Both a conventional CMOS phase frequency detector (PFD) and a CML PFD were implemented for benchmarking purposes. A custom-built 4.4 GHz synthesizer circuit employing the IC was used to validate the research. In the 4.4 GHz synthesizer circuit, the prototype IC achieved a measured in-band phase noise plateau of L( f ) = -113 dBc/Hz at a 100 kHz frequency offset, which equates to a figure of merit (FOM) of -225 dBc/Hz. The FOM compares well with existing, but expensive, SiGe and GaAs HBT processes. Total IC power dissipation was 710 mW, which is considerably less than commercially available GaAs designs. The complete synthesizer IC was implemented in Austriamicrosystems‟ (AMS) 0.35 μm CMOS process and occupies an area of 3.15 x 2.18 mm2. / Dissertation (MEng)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering / unrestricted

Studie připojitelnosti výrobny / Study of Power Plant Connection to Power NetworkSýkora, Martin January 2011 (has links)
It is necessary to judge the influences of producers on the electric compounds while creating electrical energy or during the regulation of those existing. These analyses are sorted out by so called studies of connectivity. These calculations analyze the degree of connection of the producer and the standby unit during a break-down. The results of this report are several recommendations for creating such unit and succeeding steps leading to secure the stability and safety of the electric compound operation. The aim of this thesis is to discuss about software for PC solutions for static and dynamic network model, to draft power outlet into a network of generating high voltage, to complete a study of connectivity with respect to all the distortion factor, as increased voltage, inrush current at startup, flicker, harmonic currents, interference ripple, contribution to short-circuit current, reactive power control options, and demands for compensation.

Contributions à la co-optimisation contrôle-dimensionnement sur cycle de vie sous contrainte réseau des houlogénérateurs directs / Contribution to the sizing-control co-optimization over life cycle under grid constraint for direct-drive wave energy convertersKovaltchouk, Thibaut 09 July 2015 (has links)
Les Energies Marines Renouvelables (EMR) se développent aujourd’hui très vite tant au niveau de la recherche amont que de la R&D, et même des premiers démonstrateurs à la mer. Parmi ces EMR, l'énergie des vagues présente un potentiel particulièrement intéressant. Avec une ressource annuelle brute moyenne estimée à 40 kW/m au large de la côte atlantique, le littoral français est plutôt bien exposé. Mais l’exploitation à grande échelle de cette énergie renouvelable ne sera réalisable et pertinente qu'à condition d'une bonne intégration au réseau électrique (qualité) ainsi que d'une gestion et d'un dimensionnement optimisé au sens du coût sur cycle de vie. Une première solution de génération tout électrique pour un houlogénérateur a d’abord été évaluée dans le cadre de la thèse de Marie RUELLAN menée sur le site de Bretagne du laboratoire SATIE (ENS de Cachan). Ces travaux ont mis en évidence le potentiel de viabilité économique de cette chaîne de conversion et ont permis de poser la question du dimensionnement de l’ensemble convertisseur-machine et de soulever les problèmes associés à la qualité de l’énergie produite. Puis une seconde thèse a été menée par Judicaël AUBRY dans la même équipe de recherche. Elle a consisté, entre autres, en l’étude d’une première solution de traitement des fluctuations de la puissance basée sur un système de stockage par supercondensateurs. Une méthodologie de dimensionnement de l’ensemble convertisseur-machine et de gestion de l’énergie stockée fut également élaborée, mais en découplant le dimensionnement et la gestion de la production d’énergie et de ceux de son système de stockage. Le doctorant devra donc : 1. S’approprier les travaux antérieurs réalisés dans le domaine de la récupération de l’énergie des vagues ainsi que les modèles hydrodynamiques et mécaniques réalisés par notre partenaire : le LHEEA de l’Ecole Centrale de Nantes - 2. Résoudre le problème du couplage entre dimensionnement/gestion de la chaîne de conversion et dimensionnement/gestion du système de stockage. 3. Participer à la réalisation d’un banc test à échelle réduite de la chaine électrique et valider expérimentalement les modèles énergétiques du stockage et des convertisseurs statiques associés - 4. Proposer une méthodologie de dimensionnement de la chaine électrique intégrant le stockage et les lois de contrôle préalablement élaborées 5. Déterminer les gains en termes de capacités de stockage obtenus grâce à la mutualisation de la production (parc de machines) et évaluer l’intérêt d’un stockage centralisé - 6. Analyser l’impact sur le réseau d’une production houlogénérée selon divers scenarii, modèles et outils développés par tous les partenaires dans le cadre du projet QUALIPHE. L’exemple traité sera celui de l’Ile d’Yeu (en collaboration avec le SyDEV. / The work of this PhD thesis deals with the minimization of the per-kWh cost of direct-drive wave energy converter, crucial to the economic feasibility of this technology. Despite the simplicity of such a chain (that should provide a better reliability compared to indirect chain), the conversion principle uses an oscillating system (a heaving buoy for example) that induces significant power fluctuations on the production. Without precautions, such fluctuations can lead to: a low global efficiency, an accelerated aging of the fragile electrical components and a failure to respect power quality constraints. To solve these issues, we firstly study the optimization of the direct drive wave energy converter control in order to increase the global energy efficiency (from wave to grid), considering conversion losses and the limit s from the sizing of an electrical chain (maximum force and power). The results point out the effect of the prediction horizon or the mechanical energy into the objective function. Production profiles allow the study of the flicker constraint (due to grid voltage fluctuations) linked notably to the grid characteristics at the connection point. Other models have also been developed to quantify the aging of the most fragile and highly stressed components, namely the energy storage system used for power smoothing (with super capacitors or electrochemical batteries Li-ion) and power semiconductors.Finally, these aging models are used to optimize key design parameters using life-cycle analysis. Moreover, the sizing of the storage system is co-optimized with the smoothing management.

Im Zwielicht | Großstadt, Kino, SchützengrabenSimon, Anna 06 April 2022 (has links)
Thema dieser Dissertation ist die Frage, wie sich Licht und Sehen im Zuge der Elektrifizierung veränderten, und zwar aus Sicht literarischer Erzähltexte, die zwischen 1900 und 1933 publiziert wurden. Ausgangslage der Untersuchung ist erstens die These, dass durch den Einsatz des elektrischen Lichts eine Reihe neuer Wahrnehmungsdispositive entstanden, wo trotz der Lichtstärke elektrischer Leuchtmittel zwielichtige Licht- und prekäre Sichtverhältnisse herrschten. An drei besonders markanten Zwielichtszenarien der ästhetisch-technischen Moderne – Großstadt, Kino und Schützengraben – werden anhand einer breiten Quellenbasis aus Literatur, Technik, Wissenschaft, Philosophie und Ästhetik aufgezeigt, wie die Ausdifferenzierung der lichttechnischen Infrastruktur neue Blickregime und ästhetische Weltanschauungen produzierte, die ihrerseits veränderte Techniken des Sehens evozierten. Eine weitere zentrale These lautet, dass sich angesichts der prekären Licht- und Sichtverhältnisse auch die kulturelle Semantik des Lichts veränderte: die Art und Weise, wie Licht, und damit ebenso die Vorstellungen von Wahrnehmung, Wahrheit und Wirklichkeit, vor- und dargestellt wurden. Die neuen Lichtphänomene erforderten neben aisthetischen (die sinnliche Wahrnehmung betreffende) Anpassungsleistungen auch ästhetische Bewältigungsstrategien: neue Darstellungsweisen und symbolisch-metaphorische Zuschreibungen, die das zeitgenössische Wissen über Licht und Sehen gehörig in Bewegung brachte. Es entstanden virulente neue Korrelationen ‚moderner Wahrnehmung‘ zwischen technisch erzeugtem Zwielicht, epistemischer Irritation und narrativ erzeugter Visualität. Ich hoffe, mit meiner Arbeit neue Perspektiven auf die nach wie vor relevante Frage ‚moderner Wahrnehmung‘ zu werfen, die sich seit der ‚elektrischen Moderne‘ sukzessive als immer ausgeklügelteres Zusammenspiel von (Licht-)technik, aisthesis und Ästhetik neuformiert. / This dissertation focuses on how light(ing) and seeing/ perception changed in the course of electrification, from the perspective of German literature, published between 1900 and 1933. My first claim is, that the use of electric light created a series of new perceptual dispositifs, where dubious light and precarious visual conditions prevailed despite the luminous intensity of electric lighting. Three particularly striking twilight scenarios, that play a significant role in technology and aesthetics in the early 20th century, – namely the City, the Cinema, and the Trenches of WWI – are gripping settings to demonstrate, how disruptive lighting infrastructure produced new scopic regimes and innovative aesthetic perspectives (Weltanschauungen) that changed the techniques of visual perception. Drawing from a broad base of sources from literature, technology, science, philosophy, and aesthetics, I argue that the disruptive lighting technologies did not only change light phenomena, visual conditions and perception, but also transformed the cultural semantics of light substantially. Closely tied to concepts of truth, perception and reality, the rhetoric of light and lighting are dense metaphors and symbols, deeply interconnected with the history of knowledge. The new light phenomena required aisthetic (sensory perception-related) adaptations, as well as aesthetic coping strategies, like new modes of representation and symbolic-metaphorical attributions that troubled contemporary knowledge about light and visuality. My research zooms in on the visual dispositifs of ‘electric modernity’ and thus on the new correlations between technically generated twilight, epistemic irritation, and narrative visuality. By analysing the interplay of lighting and visual technology, aisthesis, and literary aesthetics in early 20th century, I hope to shed new light on the intriguing question of ‘modern perception’ that remains relevant from the beginning of the electric age until now.
