Therefore, a self-adjusted full-line current protection strategy based on a double-layer criterion is proposed. The first layer of the criterion adopts the adaptive adjustment threshold as the setting value to realize full-line fault monitoring, which is not affected by the system operation mode and fault type. The second layer is used to locate the fault section of the line and improve the selectivity of the protection strategy. Considering the difficulty in accurately identifying high-resistance ground faults using current protection, an identification method based on compound power is proposed by analyzing the zero-sequence network of the system. Simulation results show that the proposed protection strategy can realize full-length line protection and the effective identification of high-resistance ground faults and is not affected by the system load variation and fault type.","PeriodicalId":36428,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Electrical Engineering","volume":"10 4","pages":"83-96"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10540367","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142918578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A method that combines topology and modulation to suppress the CM leakage currents in a non-isolated integrated charger is proposed. The touch current can be suppressed below a reaction threshold of 1 MIU. This enhancement enables the safe usage and commercialization of transformer-less chargers, presenting superior charger efficiency, power density, and cost-effectiveness. The CM model of the proposed system is derived to guide the design of the circuit topology and modulation schemes. The simulation results are used to determine the feasibility of these techniques.

Conventional fossil-based power plants are gradually transitioning by incorporating renewable energy sources, such as photovoltaic (PV) cells. In a PV system, an inverter converts DC power from solar panels to AC power required to serve common electrical loads. A conventional H-bridge inverter topology has several disadvantages, such as the voltage being not sinusoidal, switching the DC voltage and high common-mode voltage. The common-mode voltage can cause a large leaked capacitive current, which can result in undesirable operation in solar power applications. A common solution to this problem is the addition of a large filter to the input or output of an inverter. An inherent sinusoidal voltage source inverter based on a modified Cuk converter as its basic cell, which simultaneously generates a sinusoidal output voltage and a lower common-mode voltage, is proposed. The proposed topology does not require additional input or output filters. Analytical expressions are derived to confirm the operation of the proposed topology. Simulation results confirm the mathematical analysis. A laboratory-scale experiment is performed to verify the proposed inverter.","PeriodicalId":36428,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Electrical Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":"114-123"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10490168","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140345495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This erosion causes significant wear on the contacts, thereby reducing their lifespan. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the behavior and mechanism of arc erosion on contact surfaces in oil-immersed OLTCs. To achieve this, a self-designed friction and wear test device for OLTC contacts was utilized to conduct experiments at various sliding speeds and contact pressures. Additionally, finite element analysis was employed to validate the experimental results regarding the influence of sliding speed on arc energy. The surface morphology of the contacts was observed using an optical microscope. The findings revealed that as the sliding speed increased, the arc energy, arc initiation rate, and contact resistance initially exhibited an upward trend, then decreased, and eventually increased again. The minimum values were observed at a sliding speed of 90 mm/s. Moreover, the arc energy, arc initiation rate, and contact resistance decreased gradually as the contact pressure increased. After reaching a contact pressure of 1.5 N, the variation in the arc energy stabilized. At lower contact pressures, arc erosion dominated the wear on the contact surface. However, at higher contact pressures, the wear transitioned from predominantly arc erosion to a combination of mechanical wear and arc erosion. In summary, experimental and analytical investigations provided insights into the effects of sliding speed and contact pressure on the behavior of arc erosion, contact resistance, and surface damage of OLTC contacts in oil-immersed systems.","PeriodicalId":36428,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Electrical Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":"21-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10490172","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140345460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, SRMs are preferred particularly for EV applications owing to their fault tolerance, magnet-free structure, and high power/torque density. The main concerns of SRM compared to other machines include torque ripple and vibration. The primary cause of vibration is the radial force created by the SRM. A geometry-based modification of the SRM to reduce the radial force without significantly changing the average torque produced is proposed. The primary goal is to design a 4-phase, 8/6 SRM with a lower radial force. Two possible geometrical alterations are proposed: one with square windows and the other with circular holes on the rotor core. The windows are sized and positioned to avoid flux saturation. General criteria are developed for the optimal window size and placement. Finite element analysis (FEA) modelling of the SRM is used to validate its performance. The FEA results are compared with the performance parameters obtained using the analytical method.

In this study, the photoelastic method is employed to investigate the thermal-mechanical coupling stress dependence of the electrical treeing behavior of epoxy resin. Typical electrical tree growth morphology and stress distribution were observed using the photoelastic method. The correlation between the tree length and overall accumulated damage with an increase in mechanical stress is determined. The results show that compressive stress retards the growth of electrical trees along the electric field, while tensile stress has accelerating effects. This proves that the presence of thermal stress can induce more severe accumulated damage.","PeriodicalId":36428,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Electrical Engineering","volume":"10 1","pages":"12-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10490171","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140345498","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
