Developed approach is then, implemented on SMIB. To validate effectiveness of proposed algorithm, eigenvalue analysis as well as nonlinear time domain simulation is demonstrated considering different operating modes.","PeriodicalId":6567,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Computer, Control, Electrical, and Electronics Engineering (ICCCEEE)","volume":"54 1","pages":"1-5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86728404","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 paper reports on two unwanted-operation cases of transformer differential protection happened in Garie power plant in Sudan. In the both cases, failures in the CT/VT module of T60 relays cause unwanted operation of the protection system. These failures could be a result of aging, problems in DC power supply or from the design of these modules. More investigations are needed to find the roots of these failures. In the both cases, the failures are hidden type in which the relay will not operate unless unusual event has happened. The failures could have been detected and removed, if the preventive maintenance was effective. In order to insure reliability and sensitivity of the relays, preventive maintenance should take place from time to time.","PeriodicalId":6567,"journal":{"name":"2018 International Conference on Computer, Control, Electrical, and Electronics Engineering (ICCCEEE)","volume":"12 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87172604","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, integration of hybrid wind/battery system into diesel power plant (DPP) is presented. The proposed system is modeled as security constrained unit commitment (SCUC) problem with mixed-integer linear programming. The simulations have been performed using Gurobi8.0.0 solver implemented in MATLAB and the results show that the significant fuel saving can be achieved through the integration of the wind and the BES.
