In this paper, a new application of time frequency distribution algorithm (TFD) is introduced for analyzing subsynchronous resonance (SSR). A computation algorithm is derived to utilize the information obtained from TFD for detecting of subsynchronous modes. Three different study systems with different network configuration and different series compensation arrangements are used to measure the effectiveness of TFD and the computation algorithm in detecting network eigenvalues. Comparison between the results obtained from TFD computation algorithm and from the mathematical model is presented for each study system

This paper presents the effective use of a unified power flow controller (UPFC) and its characteristics in a computational approach. To demonstrate the flexibility of UPFC in controlling line flow transmission, a 5-bus network system is developed with line(s) congestion and operated as per-normal flow to identify the cause of line congestion and also possible solutions in mitigating the congestion with UPFC, effectively. The programs used in this study are power world simulator (PWS) and power system analysis toolbox (PSAT). The use of PSAT is reported and discussed along with its requirements of operation and its newly developed features. The embedment of UPFC in PSAT using Matlab as platform applicator to solve line congestion in steady-state condition is also explained. The use of UPFC in network planning of rural electrification is proposed at the end of the paper

The topic of this paper is to construct the module of the current transformer (CT) basing the Jiles-Atherton (J-A) hysteresis model in electromagnetic transient program (EMTP) and alternative transient program (ATP) simulation. The J-A hysteresis model constitutes of first-order ordinary differential equations and has five parameters that can be determined by measurements of hysteresis loop. According to the description of J-A hysteresis model, we can establish the CT module basing J-A hysteresis model using transient analysis of control systems (TACS) in EMTP. Compared with type 96's CT module with hysteresis characteristic, the simulated result of the CT module basing J-A hysteresis model is apparently different in fault transient situation. Therefore, this proposed CT module basing J-A hysteresis model has not only the analysis capability of the transient situation, but also the flexibility of different point of power circuit

This paper presents a method to develop and incorporate a reliability component in transmission pricing. The method includes the following three tasks: developing a technique to establish an unit reliability value; quantifying impacts of customer on system reliability; and incorporating the reliability component in the rate design. The proposed method calculates the charge or credit to a native, wheeling, or generation customer in terms of its impact on system reliability. Incorporation of the reliability component will force all players in the system (the utility and customers) to share their responsibility in system reliability through a price signal and provide an incentive message to encourage the right siting of new generations. The method also reflects the long run incremental investment requirement of a transmission company. The procedure of the proposed method has been explained using the BC Hydro system in Canada as an example

This paper presents a non-linear harmonic domain model for the static synchronous series compensator (SSSC). The model incorporates a fundamental frequency three-phase power-flow and a harmonic converter representation. This combination accounts for system imbalance and the resultant non-characteristic harmonic generation. The proposed unified solution format uses a single iterative loop eliminating unnecessary assumptions regarding the operating point. The models performance is validated against time domain simulation for an unbalanced test system. This test system is then used to illustrate the impact of transmission lines on the harmonic performance of a static synchronous series compensator, particularly with respect to additional harmonic transfers. Reinforcing the importance of comprehensive three-phase modelling when considering flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices

As a novel computation mode, the methodology of grid computing can exploit geographically and organizationally distributed computational resources for solving reactive power optimization problems. A grid-computing architecture for reactive power optimization is designed herein. Considering the characteristics of reactive power, a large-scale power system can be divided into many small-scale subsystems according to administrative domain and network structure. The optimization subproblems for corresponding subsystems can be worked out autonomously by agents, which are wrapped into grid services. The agents are diverse in objective functions, optimization algorithms and power flow algorithms. Grid computing technology is adopted to integrate the heterogeneous computational resources, which are distributed to different subsystems and dominated by different control centers. The simulation results of a practical power system show the feasibility of the proposed method

Some results obtained on the design of power quality control center (PQCC) are described. The Center, consisting of two back-to-back power converters, a DC-bus and a solid-oxide fuel cell (SOFC) distributed generator, provides varied levels of power quality services to meet the load requirements. Based on the concept of feasible operating area of the SOFC, it is shown that the ability of the PQCC to accommodate instantaneous power demand change is constrained. A feasible PQCC operating scheme is then proposed. It exploits fully the ability of the converters and the SOFC to respond to external disturbances. Furthermore, by incorporating a series compensator into the PQCC, it is shown that load ride-through capability under voltage disturbance conditions can be extended considerably. Two possible PQCC-SC structures have been considered and simulation results are used to illustrate the efficacy of the proposed schemes

A time-varying control strategy for speed control of a two-mass flexible servo system with uncertain parameters is investigated. The control strategy is based on a funnel concept, which has only been developed for systems with relative degree one, therefore a direct use in most industrial applications is inhibited. To be applicable for systems with higher relative degree - as the considered servo system - a state-feedback like extension is necessary. The problem of choosing feedback coefficients is solved such that a minimum-phase state-feedback is guaranteed. Especially for electrical drive systems stability is shown, even if not all states are fed back, what reduces the amount of measurement theoretically. However the performance is improved if all states are used for the feedback signal. The goal is to control the speed of a load-mass in the sense of tracking a given reference signal by a prescribed decay of the control error

DC/DC switching converters have been used in many applications in recent years. The sliding mode control based on VSS (variable structure system) theory has been examined for all switch mode converter types, whilst current mode (CM) control scheme is particularly applied to DC/DC converters. In this paper, a new control strategy by compromising both schemes and derivation of dynamic current reference is proposed, analyzed and simulated. Moreover, considerations for realization with DSP controllers are addressed

This paper addresses a new method to design a PI-based load-frequency control (LFC) with communication delays. First the LFC problem is reduced to a static output feedback control synthesis for a multiple delays power system, and then the control parameters are easily carried out via a mixed H2/Hinfin control technique, using a developed iterative linear matrix inequalities (ILMI) algorithm. The proposed method is applied to a 3-control area power system and the results are compared with a delayless Hinfin-based control design
