In this paper, accelerated aging experiments of oil impregnated paper are conducted and partial discharge (PD) measurement are performed under typical defect models, i.e. protrusion, surface discharge and cavity inside the oil-immersed paper. The PD experimental results of three typical defects indicate that discharges initiated from a protrusion in oil have the similarity with that in air but with a limited apparent charge. The surface discharge are much more disruptive for oil-paper insulation. The intervals between consecutive discharges has the good tendency of decrease in the whole discharge events.","PeriodicalId":439089,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125660083","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 paper, a coherency feature extraction method is proposed based on DFT-based continuous wavelet transform (CWT). By analyzing several typical situations of power angle swing (including incremental oscillated, damping oscillated and swing apart) using DFT-based CWT, it is illustrated that the scale and energy percentage of main components of the original signal can reveal the similarity and difference between power angle curves of the generators. Thus transient process of power angle can be described by a few indexes instead of a series of temporal data. Finally, case study in New England 10-machine 39-bus system indicates that the proposed coherency feature is valid for coherency identification in different fault cases.","PeriodicalId":439089,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126019888","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}

A microgrid can contain variety of sources such as diesel generator, wind turbine, PV arrays, micro-turbine and fuel cell. Usually these sources share power where the system frequency changes depending on the power supplied. On the other hand, the microgrid can contain harmonic loads that can affect the performance of the synchronous generators. These deleterious effects of distorting loads can be corrected using a distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM). In this paper, an isochronous control based droop strategy is employed that forces the microgrid to operate at the base frequency of 50 Hz. Therefore the DSTATCOM can be operated at 50 Hz. A closed-loop space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) technique is used for the DSTATCOM control. The scheme is validated through the extensive PSCAD/EMTDC simulation studies.","PeriodicalId":439089,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"11 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124841185","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 paper, the chemical and dielectric performance of silicone oil-paper composite insulation system under thermal aging is discussed. Two kinds of oil-paper systems are tested: mineral oil and silicone oil (Shin-Etsu Chemical KF-96-20 Lower viscosity fluid). In this study, mineral oil is used as the comparison sample. The accelerated aging process is at 140 oC in nitrogen. Aging samples with the aging duration of 250 hours, 500 hours and 750 hours and 1000 hours are tested. Experimental results indicate that the silicone oil has much lower acidity content and dielectric loss compared to the mineral oil. New mineral has a little higher AC breakdown voltage compared to silicone oil. For both silicone oil and mineral oil, with the increase of impurities such as water and solid particles during the aging process, the AC breakdown voltage decreases slightly. Acidic materials generated during aging process have little influence on the AC breakdown voltage. Different from the mineral oil whose impulse breakdown voltage decreases significantly with the increase of aging time, however, the silicone oil's negative impulse breakdown voltage of different aging time almost keeps the same.","PeriodicalId":439089,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE PES Asia-Pacific Power and Energy Engineering Conference (APPEEC)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121936703","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 methodology will serve as a guideline to a network planner interested in using FA as an alternative or additional solution to improve the reliability of a feeder. The defined method is based on literature and existing research on FA. Furthermore the methodology is analyzed using the Eskom case study.
