Les phénomènes de couplage électromagnétique entre les lignes aériennes de transmission d'énergie et des structures voisines sont inévitables, surtout dans les zones densément peuplées. Les effets indésirables découlants de cette proximité sont variés, allant de l'établissement des tensions dangereuses à l'apparition de phénomènes de corrosion dus au courant alternatif. L'étude de cette classe de problèmes est nécessaire pour assurer la sécurité dans les alentours de la zone d'interaction et aussi pour préserver l'intégrité des équipements et des dispositifs présents. Cependant, la modélisation complète de ce type d'application implique la représentation tridimensionnelle de la région d'intérêt et nécessite des méthodes numériques de calcul de champs spécifiques. Dans ces travaux, des problèmes liés à la circulation de courants électriques dans le sol (ou de couplage dit conductif) seront abordés avec la méthode des éléments finis. D'autres problèmes résultants de la variation temporelle des champs électromagnétiques (ou de couplage dit inductif) seront aussi considérés et traités avec la méthode PEEC (Partial Element Equivalent Circuit) généralisée. Plus précisément, une condition limite particulière sur le potentiel électrique est proposée pour tronquer le domaine de calcul dans l'analyse par éléments finis des problèmes de couplage conductif et une formulation PEEC complète pour la modélisation de problèmes de couplage inductif est présentée. Des configurations tests de complexités croissantes sont considérées pour valider les approches précédentes. Ces travaux visent ainsi à apporter une contribution à la modélisation de cette classe de problèmes, qui tendent à devenir communs avec l'expansion des réseaux électriques. / Electromagnetic coupling phenomena between overhead power transmission lines and other nearby structures are inevitable, especially in densely populated areas. The undesired effects resulting from this proximity are manifold and range from the establishment of hazardous potentials to the outbreak of alternate current corrosion phenomena. The study of this class of problems is necessary for ensuring security in the vicinities of the interaction zone and also to preserve the integrity of equipment and devices there present. However, the complete modeling of this type of application requires the three-dimensional representation of the region of interest and needs specific numerical methods for field computation. In this work, the modeling of problems arising from the flow of electrical currents in the ground (the so-called conductive coupling) will be addressed with the finite element method. Those resulting from the time variation of the electromagnetic fields (the so-called inductive coupling) will be considered as well, and they will be treated with the generalized PEEC (Partial Element Equivalent Circuit) method. More specifically, a special boundary condition on the electric potential is proposed for truncating the computational domain in the finite element analysis of conductive coupling problems, and a complete PEEC formulation for modeling inductive coupling problems is presented. Test configurations of increasing complexities are considered for validating the foregoing approaches. These works aim to provide a contribution to the modeling of this class of problems, which tend to become common with the expansion of power grids. / Fenômenos de acoplamento eletromagnético entre linhas aéreas de transmissão de energia e outras estruturas vizinhas são inevitáveis, sobretudo emáreas densamente povoadas. Os efeitos indesejados decorrentes desta proximidadesão variados, indo desde o estabelecimento de potenciais perigosos até o surgimento de processos de corrosão por corrente alternada. O estudo desta classe de problemas é necessária para a garantia da segurança nas imediações da zona de interação e também para se preservar a integridade de equipamentos e dispositivos ali presentes. Entretanto, a modelagem completa deste tipo de aplicação requer a representação tridimensional da região de interesse e necessita de métodos numéricos de cálculo de campos específicos. Neste trabalho, serão abordadas as modelagens de problemas decorrentes da circulação de correntes elétricas no solo (ditos de acoplamentocondutivo) com o método dos elementos finitos. Também serão considerados problemas produzidos pela variação temporal dos campos eletromagnéticos (ditos de acoplamento indutivo), que serão tratados com o método PEEC(Partial Element Equivalent Circuit) generalizado. Mais especificamente, uma condição de contorno particular sobre o potencial elétrico é proposta para o truncamento do domínio de cálculo na análise de problemas de acoplamento condutivo com o método dos elementos finitos, e uma formulação completa tipo PEEC para a modelagem de problemas de acoplamento indutivo é apresentada. Problemas teste de complexidades crescentes são considerados para a validação das abordagens precedentes. Estes trabalhos visam fornecer desta forma uma contribuição à modelagem desta classe de problemas, que tendem a se tornar comuns com a expansão das redes elétricas.

Small signal oscillation has been always a major concern in the operation of power systems. In a generator, the electromechanical coupling between the rotor and the rest of the system causes it to behave in a manner similar to a spring mass damper system. Following any disturbance, such as sudden change in loads, actuations in the output of turbine and faults etc. it exhibits an oscillatory behaviour around the equilibrium state. The use of fast acting high gain AVRs and evolution of large interconnected power systems with transfer of bulk power across weak transmission links have further aggravated the problem of these low frequency oscillations. Small oscillations in the range of about 0.1Hz to 3.5Hz can persist for long periods, limiting the power transfer capability of the transmission lines. These oscillations can be reduced by incorporating auxiliary controllers on generator excitation system. Power System Stabilizers (PSSs) were developed to produce additional damping by modulating the generator excitation voltage. Designing effective PSS for all operating conditions especially in large interconnected power systems still remains a difficult and challenging task. More and more power electronic based controllers have been and will be used in power systems. Many of these controllers such as Static Var Compensators (SVCs), Static Synchronous Compensators (STATCOMs) and Unified Power Flow Controllers (UPFCs) etc., are incorporated in power transmission networks to improve its operational capability. In addition, some of the energy storage systems such as Battery Energy Storage systems (BESS), Super conducting Magnetic Energy Storage System (SMES) as well large non-conventional energy sources are also increasingly being integrated with the power grid. With large integration of these devices, there is a significant impact on system stability, more importantly on small signal oscillatory instability of the power system. This thesis primarily focuses on impact of such devices on small signal oscillatory stability of the power systems. More specifically in this thesis small signal stability analysis of a Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) system with a grid connected wind powered Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG) has been presented. A SMIB system has been purposely chosen so that general conclusions can be obtained on the behaviour of the embedded STATCOM/Energy Source (ES) system on system stability. With a better understanding of the impact of such a system it would be probably possible to analyze more complicated multimachine power system and their impact on system stability. Small signal model of the complete system which comprises the generator, transmission network, inter connecting STATCOM, the wind power generator and all associated controllers has been developed. The performances of the system following a small disturbance at various operating conditions have been analyzed. To obtain quantitative estimates of the damping and synchronizing torques generated in the system, expressions for damping and synchronizing torque clients have been developed. With these analyses, the relative impact of the STATCOM and STATCOM with ES on system performance have been assessed. It is shown that with active and reactive power modulation capabilities effective and efficient control of small signal oscillations in power systems can be achieved.

In order to carry out the transportation of all electric energy, it is essential to use transmission lines, which with increasing energy demand inevitably have tended to multiply throughout the world, and especially in Brazil, given its continental dimensions. Considering the function of the transmission lines for the electrical system, its importance in the context of the electric power supply is remarkable. However, the lines constitute one of the great emitting sources of electric and magnetic fields of low frequency, which has caused concern and has been motivating fact of several studies, like the realized in this work. Therefore, in view of the scenario presented in the previous paragraph, it is necessary to establish ways of calculating the fields more and more precisely. For the calculation of the electric field is used the Image Method, the Maxwell Potential Coefficients Method and the Coulomb Law, and for the magnetic field the Biot-Savart's Law is used. The results obtained for the electric and magnetic fields were for infinite rectilinear geometries, finite rectilinear and for the conductors taking the form of a catenary, the latter geometry being the most real model for the arrangement of the conductors in a line. In all cases treated, an analytical and numerical approach was performed, in order to allow the calculation of the three geometries with accuracy. Taking advantage of the methodology of calculation of the fields, in addition this work proposes a method of support to the monitoring of transmission lines. The method consists of using the Genetic Algorithm associated to the values of the electric and magnetic fields measured to determine the parameters of the line, such as: phase spacing, cable-soil height, equivalent conductor diameter, current and operating voltage. Given the simplicity of implementation when compared to other methods, the achievement of satisfactory results and the need for a single measuring device to monitor the transmission line, the proposed method proves to be viable and promising to carry out the line monitoring process. / Em uma sociedade dependente da energia elétrica para a execução de diversas atividades do cotidiano, é normal que a sua utilização seja cada vez mais crescente no decorrer do tempo. Para realizar o transporte de toda energia elétrica é imprescindível o uso de linhas de transmissão, que com o aumento da demanda de energia inevitavelmente tenderam a se multiplicar pelo mundo e em especial pelo território brasileiro, dadas as suas dimensões continentais. Tendo em vista a função das linhas de transmissão para o sistema elétrico, é notável a sua importância no contexto do fornecimento de energia elétrica. No entanto, as linhas constituem uma das grandes fontes emissoras de campos elétricos e magnéticos de baixa frequência, o que tem causado preocupação e tem sido fato motivador de diversos estudos, como o realizado neste trabalho. Portanto, diante do cenário apresentado no parágrafo anterior, se faz necessário estabelecer formas de calcular os campos de maneira cada vez mais precisa. Para o cálculo do campo elétrico utiliza-se o Método das Imagens, o Método dos Coeficientes de Potencial de Maxwell e a Lei de Coulomb, já para o campo magnético a Lei de Biot-Savart é empregada. Os resultados obtidos para os campos elétricos e magnéticos foram para as geometrias retilíneas infinitas, retilíneas finitas e para os condutores assumindo a forma de uma catenária, sendo que essa última geometria constitui o modelo mais real quanto à disposição dos condutores em uma linha. Em todos os casos tratados foram realizadas uma abordagem analítica e numérica, de maneira a possibilitar o cálculo das três geometrias com exatidão. Aproveitando-se da metodologia de cálculo dos campos, adicionalmente este trabalho propõe um método de apoio ao monitoramento de linhas de transmissão. O método consiste em utilizar o Algoritmo Genético associado aos valores dos campos elétrico e magnético medidos para determinar os parâmetros da linha, como: espaçamento entre fases, altura cabo-solo, diâmetro equivalente dos condutores, corrente e tensão de operação. Dada a simplicidade de implementação quando comparado a outros métodos, a obtenção de resultados satisfatórios e a necessidade de um único aparelho de medição para monitorar a linha de transmissão, o método proposto mostra-se viável e promissor para realizar o processo de monitoramento de linhas.

This Bachelor thesis has been written at the Blekinge Institute of Technology. This thesis concentrates on the wind power and their components, also the large wind farm is studied. The electrical power is generated by using the power in wind to drive a wind turbine to produce mechanical power. This mechanical power can be converted into electrical power by using electrical induction generators. There are two types of the wind turbines, the horizontal axis and vertical axis wind turbine, where the horizontal axis wind turbine is mostly used and was studied in this thesis. The rotor can be placed in two directions: an upwind rotor where the blade of turbine faces to the wind, so it operates more smoothly and transmit more power. The other type is a downwind rotor which orients itself with respect for the wind direction. Moreover, the tower shadow makes the blade to flex, consequently resulting in fatigue, noise, and reduces output of the power. The modern wind turbine has been built with an odd number of blades which is important for the stability of the turbine. The rotor with an odd number of blades can be considered to be similar to a disc when calculating the dynamic properties of the machine. The main idea of this thesis is to study the wind power in general and large wind parks specifically. The Horns Rev wind park was taken as an example of a wind park in Denmark and the Gotland wind park as an example of a wind park in Sweden too. Into account, the distance between wind turbine in the wind direction cannot be too small. If the wind turbines are located to close to each other, the wind will be more and more turbulent after it passes through each single wind turbine. This would lead to that wind turbines downstream in the wind park, and it might even have to shut down due to that mechanical loading gets to high during strong conditions. This is due to the fact that when wind passes through the rotor of the wind turbine it gets very turbulent and the wind speed is decreased. The minimum length of the rotor should be approximately 5-7 rotor diameters to avoid that issue. Gotland Energy AB (GEAB) considered, that high voltage direct current light would be the only realistic way to solve the technical problems for the high amount of wind power in-feed. One result is that The stability of voltage during transient events, has become much better by using the high voltage direct current light so that the output current stability from the asynchronous generators have been improved, which reduces the stresses on the AC grid and on the mechanical construction of the windmills. / In general the wind turbines with three blades accommodated a thicker root are used. It is obvious that, the less number of blades on the wind turbine, the cost of material and manufacturing will be lower. It is worthy to mentioned that, the modern wind turbine has been built with an odd number of blades. When the length of the blade increases the deflection of blade tip due to axial wind force also increase as well. So without consider the increase in length of blade may lead to dangerous situation of collision of tower and blade. Moreover, by increasing the number of blades cost of the system would increased as well. The limit of transfer for the AC transmission system depends on the distance from shore and is therefore physically limited by this. AC large wind parks that are placed at a long distance from the shore, which means AC long transmission line, and more drop voltage A solution to AC long transmission line, it could be to decrease the offshore frequency and use a low frequency AC networks. There is a suggestion by for instance (Schütte, Gustavsson and Ström 2011). The usages of a low frequency system are in electrified railway systems, where the frequency ranges from 16.67 Hz to 25 Hz. However, the network of a low frequency would allow a simpler design of the offshore WTs and The aerodynamic rotor of a large WT operates at maximum revolutions at 15-20 rpm. The lower frequency would then allow a smaller gear ratio for turbines with a gearbox, or decrease the poles number for WTs with direct driven generators. This would lead to lighter and cheaper turbines. One of the disadvantages by using a low frequency system is the size of transformer would be increased, and hence, the costs of transformer will increased too. The operator of the grid, Gotland Energy AB (GEAB) considered, that HVDC light would be the only realistic way to solve the technical problems for the high amount of wind power in-feed. The experiences have supported expected improvements in the characteristics for example: - Stability in the system arose. - Reactive demands, power flows, as well as voltage level in the harmonic and system were reduced. - Flicker problems were eliminated with the installation of HVDC light and transient phenomena disappeared. Moreover, Overall experiences of Gotland Energy AB (GEAB) are that the control of power flow from the converters makes the AC grid easier to observe than a conventional AC network and the power variations do not stress the AC grid as much as in normal network. Voltage quality has been better with the increased wind power production. A topic to study in the future is the consequences of blackouts in power supply with many wind power farm. / 004676396018

Des exemples d’architectures rencontrées dans le domaine millimétrique ont été étudiés.L’objet principal de cette thèse est l’étude des oscillateurs synchronisés par injection ILO. L’objectif est de réaliser un oscillateur verrouillé par injection qui sera piloté par un oscillateur de fréquence plus basse possédant des caractéristiques de stabilité et de bruit meilleures.Dans ce travail de thèse, le mécanisme de verrouillage des oscillateurs par injection a été décrit. Un modèle de synchronisation par injection série, basé sur la théorie de Huntoon Weiss et inspiré du travail de Badets réalisé sur les oscillateurs synchrones verrouillés par injection parallèle, est proposé. La théorie établie a permis d’exprimer la plage de synchronisation en fonction de la topologie utilisée et des composants de la structure. La validité de la théorie a été évaluée par la simulation de la structure. Les résultats présentés montrent une bonne concordance entre la simulation et la théorie et permettent de valider le principe de synchronisation par injection. La faisabilité de l’intégration d’un ILO millimétrique synchronisé par l’harmonique d’un signal de référence de fréquence plus basse a été démontrée expérimentalement. Le synthétiseur de fréquence est réalisé en technologie BiCMOS 130nm pour des applications millimétriques de STMicroelectronics. Ce dernier opère dans une plage de 2GHz autour de la fréquence 82,5GHz. Les performances en bruit du synthétiseur sont satisfaisantes. Le bruit de phase de l’ILO recopie celui du signal injecté. Les équipements de mesures utilisés, le bruit de phase de l’oscillateur atteint des valeurs inférieures à -110dBc/Hz à 1MHz de la porteuse. / This thesis is a part of a French project "VELO".

Examples of architectures encountered in the millimeter frequency range have been studied. The purpose of this thesis is to study the phenomena of synchronization in oscillators. The objective is to design an injection locked oscillator ILO driven by another oscillator, the second oscillator operates at lower frequency and offers better stability and noise characteristics.In this thesis, the injection locking mechanism of the oscillators has been described. A model of synchronization by series injection is proposed. The model is based on the theory of Huntoon and Weiss and inspired by Badets’ work performed on parallel injection. The theory expresses the synchronized frequency range depending on the used topology and the values of the components. The validity of the theory was evaluated by simulation. The results show good agreement between simulation and theory and validate the principle of synchronization by injection.The feasibility of a millimeter ILO synchronized by the harmonic of a reference signal operating at lower frequency has been demonstrated experimentally. The synthesizer was implemented in BiCMOS technology for 130nm applications millimeter of STMicroelectronics. The oscillator operates at 82.5 GHz and performs a frequency range of 2GHz. The noise performance of the synthesizer is satisfactory. The phase noise of the ILO depends on the reference phase noise, and reaches values of -110dBc/Hz at 1MHz from the carrier frequency.

O MSGS permite identificar um conjunto de hiperplanos no espaço Rn que, quando combinados adequadamente, podem separar duas ou mais classes de dados. Especificamente neste trabalho é empregado um aprimoramento ao MSGS com base em estimativas de densidade por kernel. Utilizando-se KDE, é possível encontrar novos hiperplanos de separação de forma mais consistente e, a partir daí, conduzir à classificação de dados com taxas de acerto superiores à técnica originalmente empregada. Neste trabalho, o MSGS aprimorado é empregado satisfatoriamente pela primeira vez para a identificação de padrões em sistemas de energia elétrica. O método foi ajustado para a classificação de faltas incipientes em transformadores de potência e os resultados apresentam índices de acerto superiores a trabalhos correlatos. O MSGS aprimorado também foi adaptado para classificar e localizar faltas inter-circuitos em linhas áreas de transmissão em circuito duplo, obtendo resultados positivos em comparação com a literatura científica. / This work is based on the method of successive geometric segmentations (SGSM) for the construction of an artificial neural network capable of generating both the network topology as the weight of neurons without specifying initial parameters. The MSGS allows to identify a set of hyperplanes in the Rn space that when properly combined, can separate two or more data classes. Specifically in this work is used an improvement to SGSM based on kernel density estimates (KDE). Using KDE, it is possible to find new hyperplanes of separation more consistently and, from there, lead to data classification with accuracy rates higher than originally technique. In this paper, the improved SGSM is first used satisfactorily to identify patterns in electrical power systems. The method has been adjusted to the classification of incipient faults in power transformers and the results have achieved rates above related work. The improved SGSM has also been adapted to classify and locate inter-circuit faults on double circuit overhead transmission lines with positive results compared with the scientific literature.

Cette thèse présente l'étude de la réduction de modèles pour les réseaux électriques et les réseaux de transmission. Un point de vue mathématique a été adopté pour la réduction de modèles. Les réseaux électriques sont des réseaux immenses et complexes, dont l'analyse et la conception nécessite la simulation et la résolution de grands modèles non-linéaires. Dans le cadre du développement de réseaux électriques intelligents (smart grids) avec une génération distribuée de puissance, l'analyse en temps réel de systèmes complexes tels que ceux-ci nécessite des modèles rapides,fiables et précis. Dans la présente étude, nous proposons des méthodes de réduction de de modèles à la fois a priori et a posteriori, adaptées aux modèles dynamiques des réseaux électriques.Un accent particulier a été mis sur la dynamique transitoire des réseaux électriques, décrite par un modèle oscillant non linéaire et complexe. La non-linéarité de ce modèle nécessite une attention particulière pour bénéficier du maximum d'avantages des techniques de réduction de modèles.Initialement, des méthodes comme POD et LATIN ont été adoptées avec des degrés de succès divers. La méthode de TPWL, qui combine la POD avec des approximations linéaires multiples, a été prouvée comme étant la méthode de réduction de modèles la mieux adaptée pour le modèle dynamique oscillant.Pour les lignes de transmission, un modèle de paramètres distribués en domaine fréquentiel est utilisé. Des modèles réduits de type PGD sont proposés pour le modèle DP des lignes de transmission. Un problème multidimensionnel entièrement paramétrique a été formulé, avec les paramètres électriques des lignes de transmission inclus comme coordonnées additionnelles de la représentation séparée. La méthode a été étendue pour étudier la solution du modèle des lignes de transmission pour laquelle les paramètres dépendent de la fréquence. / This thesis presents the study of the model order reduction for power grids and transmission networks. The specific focus has been the transient dynamics. A mathematical viewpoint has been adopted for model reduction. Power networks are huge and complex network, simulation for power grid analysis and design require large non-linearmodels to be solved. In the context of developing “SmartGrids” with the distributed generation of power, real time analysis of complex systems such as these needs fast,reliable and accurate models. In the current study we propose model order reduction methods both a-priori and aposteriori suitable for dynamic models of power grids.The model that describes the transient dynamics of the power grids is complex non-linear swing dynamics model. The non-linearity of the swing dynamics model necessitates special attention to achieve maximum benefit from the model order reduction techniques. In the current research, POD and LATIN methods were applied initially with varying degrees of success. The method of TPWL has been proved as the best-suited model reduction method for swing dynamics model ; this method combines POD with multiple linear approximations.For the transmission lines, a distributed parameters model infrequency-domain is used. PGD based reduced-order models are proposed for the DP model of transmission lines. A fully parametric problem with electrical parameters of transmission lines included as coordinates of the separated representation. The method was extended to present the solution of frequency-dependent parameters model for transmission lines.

La modélisation numérique des réseaux de câbles est devenue une étape indispensable dans la phase de conception d’un projet afin de prédire les disfonctionnements dans les moyens de transport issus de l’augmentation des couplages électromagnétiques. La majorité des modèles repose sur des méthodes analytiques, qui sont certes rapides en comparaison avec les méthodes numériques 3D, mais en contrepartie sont limitées aux basses fréquences et aux géométries uniformes. De plus, des hypothèses concernant les conditions aux limites des conducteurs, comme les plans de masse infinis, sont souvent appliqués dans le but d’obtenir des formules analytiques simples C’est dans ce contexte, que nous avons envisagé l’amélioration de ces modèles en réduisant ces simplifications et ces hypothèses imposées au départ. A cet égard, nous avons développé dans un premier temps un modèle de ligne de transmission filaire qui consiste à prendre en compte les pertes par rayonnement en haute fréquence, la longueur finie et la géométrie non uniforme. Lors de cette étude, nous avons utilisé la théorie des lignes et deux méthodes numériques en l’occurrence les méthodes PEEC et TLST. Nous avons démontré pour le cas des risers que les coefficients de la méthode PEEC peuvent être obtenus analytiquement. Concernant notre deuxième axe de recherche, on s’est intéressé à la modélisation des conduits métalliques notamment les plans de masse finis et les goulottes. Ces derniers ont été modélisés avec un ensemble de câbles. Une étude expérimentale a été menée sur les effets induits par la goulotte sur la propagation des ondes électromagnétiques. Finalement, les résultats de nos modèles ont été validés expérimentalement avec des mesures. Une attention particulière a été portée sur l’effet des extrémités des lignes de transmission. / Considering the increasing awareness of the EM coupling issues inside aircraft and automotive engines, numerical modeling of cable harness networks is currently one of the most important steps in the design process of an engineering project. Most of the relevant softwares that deals with the cable topology simulation relies on the well-known analytical models such as the multiconductor transmission line theory. These techniques are better than the fullwave ones regarding the time calculation and the memory requirement. However, they are available only in the low frequency range because of the assumptions taken into account such as the uniform geometry and the infinite length of the wires. To overcome these restrictions and improve the existing solutions, we come up with a new high frequency model which is based on the transmission line theory and two numerical methods: PEEC and TLST. To keep the analytical approach of our model, we managed to get the analytical expressions of the PEEC’s partial elements. In this thesis, we were also interested by the cable raceways and cable trays. First of all, we developed a raceway model based on transmission line wires. Comparing our results with the FDTD ones, we noticed some differences especially in the high frequency range when the wire ends with the risers. Through an experimental study, we explained the behavior and the impact of these cables trays on the EM wave propagation. Finally, the results of our models have been validated with the measurements. Thanks to these experiments, we highlighted the fact that the termination of a wire has an important impact on the wave propagation.
