The unsymmetrical faults are analyzed. The SFCL is incorporated to the bus which gives the highest fault current at two different positions that is the main position and the feeder position. There are two types of SFCL, purely resistive and purely inductive. Simulations were performed using MATLAB Programming and Simulink version 7.5 and were tested on 11 bus IEEE systems to show its capability and feasibility.","PeriodicalId":379868,"journal":{"name":"2010 4th International Power Engineering and Optimization Conference (PEOCO)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133033676","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 quality and reliability of power needs to be maintained in order to obtain optimum performance. Therefore, it is extremely important that transmission line faults from various sources be identified accurately, reliably and be corrected as soon as possible. In this paper, a comparative study of the performance of Fourier transform and wavelet transform based methods combined with Neural Network (NN) for location estimation of faults on high voltage transmission lines is presented. A new location method is proposed for decreasing training time and dimensions of NN. The proposed algorithms are based on Fourier transform analysis of fundamental frequency of current and voltage signals in the event of a short circuit on a transmission line. Similar analysis is performed on transient current and voltage signals using multi-resolution Daubchies-9 wavelet transform, and comparative characteristics of the two methods are discussed.","PeriodicalId":379868,"journal":{"name":"2010 4th International Power Engineering and Optimization Conference (PEOCO)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134325703","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}

In this work, laboratory studies on a new filler material for cable insulation have been conducted. The influence of calcium carbonate and bentonite fillers on the dielectric strength of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) cable were analyzed. Polymer structure was changed during the processing and influence in the dielectric properties. Those specimens produce from both formulations were tested on dielectric strength under alternating current stress. The analysis result was further characterized on scanning electron microscope (SEM) and density for further confirmation. Dispersion of the filler is examined by using the scanning electron microscope (SEM) while the density of specimens is measured by density meter. Comparison is made between the result of measurement and the actual density of the specimens. From the results, it is shown that the filler material has improved the dielectric strength of the cable insulator.","PeriodicalId":379868,"journal":{"name":"2010 4th International Power Engineering and Optimization Conference (PEOCO)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114491847","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}

This stems from the difference between the final cost of electricity generation and its market price, the price of purchasing electricity from neighbouring countries and also difference in consumption peak in various times of a year. Iran has also tried to develop power exchange with neighbouring countries because of various benefits including saving in initial investments and also in operational costs of power industry. So instead of allocating a major portion of its installed capacity as reserve margin, Iran can utilize other countries capabilities in this regard. Besides, developing power exchange plays a major role in levelizing power supply cost in neighbouring countries and in different times in a year. In this paper, firstly the advantages of the power trade expansion are discussed and then based on the power supply and demand outlook in neighbouring countries of Iran, the required guidelines for power trade development between Iran and its neighbouring countries with some recommendations are presented.","PeriodicalId":379868,"journal":{"name":"2010 4th International Power Engineering and Optimization Conference (PEOCO)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131188272","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}
