Distance relay tripping characteristic itself depends on the power system structural conditions (short circuit levels at the line ends), pre-fault operational conditions (load angle and voltage magnitude ratio at the line ends), and especially the ground fault resistance. In the presence of UPFC, its controlling parameters as well as the connection point of the instrument transformers of distance relay affect the tripping characteristic.

This paper presents an approach using fuzzy set theory for reactive power control with the purpose of improving the voltage stability of a power system. To minimize the voltage deviations from pre-desired values of all the load buses, using the sensitivities with respect to reactive power control variables form the basis of the proposed fuzzy logic control (FLC). Control variables considered are switchable VAr compensators, on load tap changing (OLTC) transformers and generator excitations. Voltage deviations and controlling variables are translated into fuzzy set notations to formulate the relation between voltage deviations and controlling ability of controlling devices. The developed fuzzy system is tested on a few simulated practical Indian power systems and some IEEE standard test systems. The performance of the fuzzy system is compared with conventional optimization technique and results obtained are encouraging. Results obtained for a 24-node equivalent EHV system of part of Indian southern grid and IEEE New England 39-bus system are presented for illustration purposes.

As a rule receiving nodes are not equipped with stationary measuring instruments so measurements of loads are performed sporadically. In general, the only information commonly available regarding loads, other than major distribution substations and equipment installations, is billing cycle customer kWh consumption. In order to model system uncertainty, inexactness, and random nature of customers' demand, a fuzzy system approach is proposed. This paper presents application possibilities of the fuzzy inference method to the electrical load modeling. Clustering of load profiles in different part of system was used to classify the substations. A regression model, expressing the correlation between a substation peak load and a set of customer features (explanatory variables), existing in the substation population, is determined.

VSDs are used for controlling the speed of induction machine by adjusting the amplitude and frequency of the AC voltage. These adjustments are made by advanced technology in semiconductors, which are faster switching devices. Faster switching reduces the switching power loss, requiring less heat sink, thus enabling drives to become more efficient and smaller, and this also helps to reduce cost. Along with the better performance enabled by the high switching speed and increased switching frequency, they have also raised several concerns related to the consequences of high speed switching. One of these concerns is the over-voltage that appears at the motor terminals due to the impedance mismatch between the power cable and the motor. In this paper, overvoltages at the motor terminal are analyzed and accurate simulation models of different filters are designed to reduce the overvoltage problems. The models can be readily implemented using computational tools like Matlab, thereby providing a convenient method to develop the best dv/dt filter solution for a particular drive to reduce the over voltage & hence increases the life of the motor","PeriodicalId":191301,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE Power India Conference","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129751820","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}
