Here, the adjustable speed drives of this locomotive, used to feed the AC motors, are configured as multistage DC/DC/AC PWM-controlled converters. The proposed model is based on the switching function approach and use the iterative harmonic and interharmonic analysis procedure. The waveform distortion evaluated in different operating conditions shows the good accuracy of the results obtainable by means of the new model, compared with those of time domain simulations. The new model is suitable to be used in the framework of a comprehensive model of the railway system, including AC/DC substations, like that presented in the Part 2 of this paper with reference to the Italian railways system.","PeriodicalId":406398,"journal":{"name":"2004 11th International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (IEEE Cat.

DG sources based on voltage source inverters (VSI) with pulse width modulation (PWM) control were considered. The DG sources generate active power depending on the depth of voltage dips under faults conditions. The compensation effect is shown for different DG source capabilities and different coupling between the LV and MV networks, i.e. the short circuit power of the distribution transformer. The PSCADIEMTDC programme was used for analysis of system performance. Results of simulation for a study network are presented, which show the effectiveness of compensation.","PeriodicalId":406398,"journal":{"name":"2004 11th International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (IEEE Cat.

Local distributed generation is often thought to help support the system during a fault and minimize sags. However in this case, the presence of a synchronous generator seemed to lengthen the duration of the sag. The combination of the load on the system and the generator was found to contribute to the extended sag. The primary factor was the reactive power drawn by the load during the fault and recovery along with the reaction of the generator. Simulation studies show that such a response could have been predicted if the generator and load were modeled accurately.","PeriodicalId":406398,"journal":{"name":"2004 11th International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (IEEE Cat.

It mainly manifests as a time variance of power system properties as the nonlinear system components working points are set by relatively stable system voltage waveforms. The LPTV (linear periodically time variant) power system model is a natural extention of the time invariant model, and better describes the power system voltage/current relations. As the LPTV model deals with parametric system description it is more difficult in implementation and identification. Two approaches to LPTV system description are presented in the paper. The interpolating methods are discussed which allow for efficient model identification in nonstationary power system conditions.","PeriodicalId":406398,"journal":{"name":"2004 11th International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (IEEE Cat.

This work presents an approach to analyze the behavior of the harmonic torques produced by three-phase induction motors when supplied by nonsinusoidal voltage, taking into account the skin-effect in the rotor bars and the saturation of the stator leakage reactance during start-up. It is important to notice that the analysis and the derived equations are based on ordinary data available in the manufacturer's catalogue.","PeriodicalId":406398,"journal":{"name":"2004 11th International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (IEEE Cat.

The RT-HIL environment employs a commercial real-time digital simulator allowing RT simulations of large power systems and its controls at a bandwidth between DC and 3 kHz. In the example described in this paper an industrial controller provides firing pulses to a simulated thyristor controlled rectifier. The latter is fed form a simulated distribution system. In such a truly closed loop environment the firing board is tested for its sensitivity to poor quality power. The results show that the board is insensitive to large voltage distortions exceeding values recommended in the standards. However, certain single-phase voltage sags which cause a phase shift of the faulted phase voltage lead to misfiring of the board. It is concluded that such detail can only be revealed by the proposed RT-HIL method and will lead to a substantial improvement in equipment performance in the future.","PeriodicalId":406398,"journal":{"name":"2004 11th International Conference on Harmonics and Quality of Power (IEEE Cat.
