The impact of protection devices on the availability of low-voltage direct current microgrids
This paper presents a method to determine the impact of low-voltage direct current circuit breakers on the availability of the dc bus. Low-voltage direct current is gaining traction in industry, and protection is an important aspect. New circuit breaker technologies are extensively researched, but the impact of the speed of interruption on direct current bus availability has not yet been investigated. This paper demonstrates how to determine the fault clearance probability, which is used to set up state transition diagrams for the feeder states. These state transition diagrams are solved using the semi-Markov process. The solutions of the semi-Markov process are used in the UGO method to determine the availability of the direct current bus. Furthermore, the results depend on the length of the feeder, the capacitance of the direct current bus and the minimum allowed voltage. For feeders with a fault clearance probability lower than 100%, the number of feeders also influences the availability of the direct current bus.
期刊介绍:
Elsevier publishes Reliability Engineering & System Safety in association with the European Safety and Reliability Association and the Safety Engineering and Risk Analysis Division. The international journal is devoted to developing and applying methods to enhance the safety and reliability of complex technological systems, like nuclear power plants, chemical plants, hazardous waste facilities, space systems, offshore and maritime systems, transportation systems, constructed infrastructure, and manufacturing plants. The journal normally publishes only articles that involve the analysis of substantive problems related to the reliability of complex systems or present techniques and/or theoretical results that have a discernable relationship to the solution of such problems. An important aim is to balance academic material and practical applications.
