This paper proposes a model-based algorithm for protection of the power transformer in a CPC-based substation. The main difficulty in the use of conventional model-based algorithms lies in modeling of the nonlinear behavior of the transformer core. To tackle this problem, in this paper, multiple linear models are employed to simulate the nonlinearity of the magnetic core. At each time instance, the dynamic behavior of the transformer will be followed by one of these linear models and, the proposed algorithm switches between these linear models based on the concept of interactive multiple model (IMM) algorithm. This way, not only the accuracy of the proposed algorithm increases but also the computational burden is significantly reduced compared to conventional model-based algorithms. Therefore, the proposed algorithm has better potential to be implemented in real-world microprocessors. Several experimental tests include turn-to-turn (TTF) and turn-to-ground faults (TGFs) have been employed to reveal the effectiveness of the proposed IMM-based protection algorithm.","PeriodicalId":13498,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery","volume":"40 1","pages":"410-422"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142673491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents the first long-duration GIC field test in the U.S. performed on high-voltage, grid-connected transformers featuring winding clamps and tie rods instead of conventional tie bars. Field measurements were taken to evaluate GIC effects. These measurements also aided in developing and validating thermal and electromagnetic transient (EMT) models of the transformers. During the test, significant current and voltage distortions were observed along with considerable transformer reactive power losses. Analysis of the field measurements showed that the transformers’ hottest spot was at the inner windings, and their <italic>k</i>-factors were close to factory test and software default values. Thermal simulations indicated that the transformers would not violate their thermal limits even for a GIC waveform that peaks at about 200 A/phase. EMT simulations revealed that increased transformer loading may reduce GIC-induced reactive power demand and harmonics in certain scenarios. The study also highlighted potential inaccuracies in using the <italic>k</i>-factor method to calculate transformer reactive power losses.","PeriodicalId":13498,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery","volume":"40 1","pages":"447-458"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142673488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is imperative to enhance the resilience of the electric power distribution network (PDN) against such events. This paper aims to achieve two objectives: first, to present a new model that characterizes the risk of damage to various PDN components due to an earthquake, and second, to classify the PDN components based on their exposure to seismic stressors. Drawing on current seismology standards, this study establishes a novel fragility curve for more prevalent PDN configurations, including sectionalized single busbar, main and transfer bus, and one-and-a-half breaker arrangements. The proposed methodology accounts for significant uncertainties regarding earthquake magnitude, its epicenter location, individual equipment impacts, and the overall performance of the PDN. As a result, a risk map is produced that outlines the infrastructure at risk in the event of an earthquake. Additionally, a new resilience metric is introduced to quantify the PDN's capacity to withstand seismic forces, enabling the quantification of the PDN's performance during seismic events.","PeriodicalId":13498,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery","volume":"40 1","pages":"387-397"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142673487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These expressions directly link the parameters to the coefficients of five specific composite driving-point admittance functions, each tailored for specific terminal configuration within the assembly. A specific ratio of two coefficients from the fitted rational function for each measured magnitude response at the line-end of HV and LV windings directly yields the equivalent inductance of each winding. Similarly, three other specific ratios of two coefficients, extracted from fitted rational functions of three other measured responses (two from HV terminal and one from LV), yield three equations, solving which determines three capacitances (inter-winding and ground capacitances of HV and LV winding). More importantly, this method remains invariant for estimating these parameters of two windings both in healthy and fault-conditions. Changes in inductance or capacitance identify the faulty winding(s) and also assist in identifying the specific fault types. Experimental validation on a 33/11 kV winding assembly with core shows promising results for various faults viz. inter-turn shorting, disk-space variation, and radial deformation, demonstrating the method's accuracy in estimation and fault-analysis.","PeriodicalId":13498,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery","volume":"40 1","pages":"353-364"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142670589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is the main topic presented in this paper. A new analytical approach is presented in the paper, which allows analysis of the soil dryout phenomenon and its effect on cable rating when the cables are subjected to the load varying over time.

For liquid natural cooled power transformers (ON/KN), the liquid temperatures and velocities can only be obtained by modelling the complete-cooling-loop (CCL), which refers to the insulating liquid circulation between the windings and the radiators. In this paper, a CCL based computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was developed for determining the liquid temperatures and velocities in the natural cooling mode. The validities of the CCL CFD simulations were verified by conducting experiments under different loading conditions, at different thermal heads and of different insulating liquids. The experimentally verified simulation results showed that the top liquid temperature increases exponentially against the power loss, whereas the bottom liquid temperature increases linearly against the power loss. The liquid velocity is in an approximately linear relationship against the square root of the product of the power loss and the thermal head. Moreover, the thermal performances of different insulating liquids were investigated. The dominating material property for the liquid thermal performance of an ON/KN transformer is the dynamic viscosity. For different liquids, the closer the dynamic viscosity, the better matching of the liquid temperatures and velocities.","PeriodicalId":13498,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery","volume":"40 1","pages":"343-352"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10752914","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142637306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this letter, we investigate, detect and mitigate such vulnerabilities within the framework of a recently proposed dual cascaded second-order time-delay filter for APFs. Our findings reveal that if exploited, these vulnerabilities can lead to increased power losses in APFs and significant degradation in the grid power factor.
