Analysis and development of the proposed ac-dc converter is done with Matlab prior to the implementation. Then a laboratory prototype is developed and test results are presented to validate the developed design procedure and the simulation models. The proposed autotransformer-based ac-dc converter has resulted in elimination of less than 23rd harmonic in the supply current. And the resulting supply current is near sinusoidal in sharp with low total harmonic distortion (THD). The autotransformer-based structure leads to a circuit of lower cost, weight, volume and space when compared with the conventional 6-pulse ac-dc converter. Thus the proposed 24-pulse ac-dc converter is ideally suited for retrofitting with existing motor drives.","PeriodicalId":169553,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Power System Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130339971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, various alternative energy generation models and modern intelligent control equipments are emerged continuously; a convenient and flexible way to simulate these models which can be updated timely should be found for the small signal stability assessment software.

The execution of the traditional serial algorithm will be high storage cost and low efficient. In this paper the user-defined model module of the power system analysis software package and a method which can linearize any block are introduced in detail. The development of the Parallel algorithms based on the ‘Multi-port Inverse Matrix parallel algorithm’ or some mature parallel numerical analysis solvers are discussed, which can be applied on the high performance PC clusters or multi-core PC.","PeriodicalId":169553,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Power System Technology","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130611932","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The battery storage unit operates as a source or load, depending on the wind power output and loading conditions of the system. The battery storage is connected to the AC side of the wind energy system through a three phase inverter to supply both active and reactive power. A dummy load is also incorporated into the AC side of the system. The design criteria of the controllers for each component (ie. DFIG, battery storage system and dummy load) and an approach for control coordination of the entire system are presented in this paper. The suitability of the proposed control coordination strategy and individual system controllers are tested in relation to the system voltage, frequency and DC link stability of the DFIG under variable wind and changing load conditions. The maximum power extraction capability from wind is also achieved throughout the operation.","PeriodicalId":169553,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Power System Technology","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123362675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application of AM is a challenge to the validity of traditional distribution network planning, operation, and commercial practices. Network planning and operation should be synchronous when AM is applied in the distribution network: The determination of the connection capacity of DG should consider different operation situations that will appear in the future as well as the positive effect of AM to improve the technical level of the network. In this paper, a novel bi-level programming model for distributed wind generation (DWG) planning under AM mode is put forward. The model takes the maximum expectation of net benefit of DWG as the upper level program objective, and takes the minimum expectation of generation curtailment as the lower level program objective. The impact of active management algorithm on improvement of branch power flow and node voltage is taken into account. A hybrid algorithm combining the plant growth simulation algorithm (PGSA) with probabilistic optimal power flow (POPF) algorithm is presented to solve the optimal planning of DWG under AM mode. The case studies have been carried out on a 33-node distribution network, and the results verify the rationality of the planning model and the effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":169553,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Power System Technology","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123473501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It will also be possible to take advantage of DG with regard to the service restoration in distribution networks. For example, when there is not enough capacity to restore the entire out-of-service area, the network operator can implement intentional island operation with the support of black-start DG. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of making full use of renewable energy sources, the network operator is required to ensure the interconnection of the renewable units that are installed in the out-of-service area as many as possible. Based on these assumptions, this paper establishes a new optimization model for the solution of the service restoration problem that incorporates DG and applies NSGA-II to solve the model. Numerical analysis verifies the feasibility and correctness of the model.","PeriodicalId":169553,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Power System Technology","volume":"108 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120892317","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, Fluctuating wind speeds based on Kaimal spectrum, which reflects the change of wind speed with height above ground, were numerically simulated by means of WAWS. Then finite element models of transmission tower-line system which have different spans were established by use of ANSYS. The dynamic response of the suspension insulator string under the action of fluctuating wind loads were numerically simulated with ANSYS finite element software and the results show that the span has a certain impact on the windage angle of the suspension insulator string. By comparing to current design code, it is suggested that a dynamic wind load factor should be introduced in the calculation of wind load applying on the wires and insulators in order to precisely determine the windage yaw of the suspension insulator string. The factors corresponding to different spans are provided based on the results of the numerical simulation.","PeriodicalId":169553,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Power System Technology","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116300778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An enhanced PSCAD/EMTDC model of simulating dielectric recovery process of signal and triple-break vacuum interrupters was developed, whose accuracy was verified by comparing simulation results with test data obtained by Edward Huber. The other research focused on choice of rational voltage sharing measures for triple-break vacuum interrupters. Two voltage-sharing measures for triple-break vacuum interrupters including shunt grading capacitor and metal oxide arrester (MOA) were investigated and compared.

Firstly, the research interval is divided into finite elements. Radau collocation method is used to convert the optimization model into a nonlinear programming by approximating state variable, algebraic variable and control variable profiles by a family of polynomials on each element. Then moving finite elements is introduced to adjust the length of each interval dynamically, achieve the precise positioning of control variable and improve the accuracy of the algorithm.
