Two new techniques are suggested for the construction of such protections. The first technique consists in measuring EMF at the leads of inductance coils mounted near the busbars of all phases from the low voltage side of the transformer of a converter unit, equalizing and subtracting EMFs induced by currents in these busbars obtained from the coils for the same phases, and the comparison between the resulted differences with the reference value. In the second technique, in addition to inductance coils mounted like as in the first technique, a reed with a control winding is suggested to mounted near the DC conductor busbar. The difference between the magnetic fluxes generated by the current in this busbar and by the current in the reed winding, proportional to the total rectified EMFs received from the coils mounted near the busbars of the same phases, is compared with the magnetic flux sufficient to trigger a reed which indicates a damage when its contacts are closed and sends a signal to disconnect the protected unit from the network. Models of the devices which implement the protection techniques suggested are described, and their behavior in different converter units operating modes is analyzed.","PeriodicalId":230353,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Ural Conference on Electrical Power Engineering (UralCon)","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126104341","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}

Zero-order and first-order polynomials are considered. For each of the applied approximating polynomials, a measurement algorithm is proposed; the methodological error for the case of sinusoidal current and voltage is analyzed; recommendations to reduce the measurement error have been developed. Analytical relations are obtained allows to choose the values of the sampling frequency and the measurement time. It is shown that approximation by zero-order polynomials is much more efficient than approximation by first-order polynomials. For the case of applying the approximation polynomial of the zero-order, the methods for reducing the methodological measurement error are proposed. These methods are based on the adjustment of the number of averaged samples, the adjustment of the initial phase of the signal and the combined adjustment of the number of averaged samples and the value of the initial phase (combined technique). To apply the proposed methods, an additional measurement frequency converter is required. The reliability of the analytical relationships is confirmed by the coincidence of the analytical results and the results of simulation modeling at control points.

The asymmetrical modes of the power network have randomized character. There is also a high level of drive motors failures in agricultural branch. The reasons for their failures is the voltage asymmetry and phase failure of the supply grid. Existing protection devices, including voltage filters, often do not switch off electric machines in case of such emergency modes due to the impact of accidental voltage asymmetry. A voltage vector of zero sequence could be represented as two-dimensional random continuous function, and the formula for calculation of probability of its impact in a given area in a plot is proposed. The formula for calculation of probability of proper operation of the filter protection device at occurrence of an asymmetric mode is resulted, and calculation of such probabilities is done: at operation in an asymmetric grid at level of average statistical values and break-off of a motor phase, probabilities of proper operation of a protection device on voltage of zero sequence and separate phases are in the interval from 59 % up to 86 %. It is more effective to connect the filter to the artificial zero point, which will make it possible to eliminate the influence of accidental voltage asymmetry and to reconfigure the filter to a higher threshold of triggering with reaching 100% proper operation at motor phase failure.","PeriodicalId":230353,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Ural Conference on Electrical Power Engineering (UralCon)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133666396","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}

There are various ship classes, designed not only for transportation of goods, but also to perform special tasks. The mentioned type of ships includes icebreakers designed to support navigation in the Arctic region. They are distinguished by a large displacement and high-capacity propulsion plant, as well as a dynamic mode of operation with frequent reverses. Many other ship types also use an electric drive in their propulsion systems, which is due to operating conditions and reliability requirements. Electric propulsion systems have the ability to change the direction of rotation with frequent repeated cycles. Currently, AC electric propulsion systems are used most widely, replacing obsolete DC motors. With a retrospective view of electric propulsion systems, a sequential development becomes obvious. The modern marine electric drive should be further improved in terms of its capacity and operation cost-effectiveness. The last of these tasks is mainly to increase efficiency and reduce losses both when converting the frequency of the supply voltage and in general in all parts of the electric propulsion system. In practice, with the modern development of technology, the reserve for improving properties of electric components is not so great. In this case, the single way to increase the efficiency of shipboard electric propulsion systems is reducing the number of functional units on the way from ship generators to the engine motor. The authors proposed a number of technical solutions for improving ship electrical propulsion systems; the novelty is confirmed by patents for inventions. One of the solution effects is the simplification of the functional circuit of the electric propulsion system, which corresponds to the general development trend- a decrease in the number of functional units and elements on the way from the ship energy source to the electric engine.","PeriodicalId":230353,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Ural Conference on Electrical Power Engineering (UralCon)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130495542","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}
