A novel approach for fault detection in high voltage DC transmission systems using neural networks is presented. In the presented method, at first, Harmonics of voltage waveform in rectifier side are derived rapidly by using an adaptive linear neuron. Then, different types of faults including DC line fault, AC system fault and converter's faults are detected property using proposed criterion. In the under study voltage DC transmission systems system, rectifier and its controllers and required filters is modeled completely. A proposed criterion is tested on a high voltage DC system by computer simulation performed in MATLAB/Simulink environment. Simulation resulted demonstrates that the proposed approach can be used for online fault detection in high voltage DC systems.

An understanding of mechanism of partial discharge (PD) in SF6 gas is critical for diagnosis of PD in electric power equipment and contributes to the optimization of the design of electric power applications. However, for complexity of PD characteristics under non-uniform electric field, the mechanism of PD in SF6 is not comprehended enough. For this reason, we aim to reveal the PD mechanism by measuring current waveform, propagation characteristics and light emission of PD in SF6 gas and analyzing these data. For this purpose, we have developed excellent measurement and analysis techniques. For an analysis of PD under ac voltage application, not only PD waveforms but also PD propagation property is essential. We have constructed partial discharge current pulse waveform analysis (PD-CPWA) system. This system has enabled us to observe PD current sequentially at high speed and analyze the propagation of PD current pulse statistically. By the application of PD-CPWA system to diagnosis of PD activity due to the metallic particle in SF6, we could identify the particle type and size. On the other hand, for an analysis of PD under impulse voltage application, an ultra high-speed PD measurement by various methods is extremely important. In order to investigate the impulse PD mechanism spatially and temporally, the simultaneous measurement of current and light emission intensity waveforms, streak and still light emission images and temporal evolution of spectrum of PD light emission have been carried out. By using this synchronous ultra-high speed PD measurement system, we revealed the change of light emission from decomposition products depending on the step propagation of leader discharge.

This paper provides the basic outlines of dynamic modeling of Al-Zaafarana wind farm as a typical example for large wind farm simulation for protection applications. MATLAB "the most known simulation Package" is employed for this target. The package represents an ideal candidate for dynamic simulation purposes with its own highly performance graphical interface and built-in libraries. All abnormal operating conditions including load variations, short circuits, and wind speed variations are considered. This gives a better understanding of the overall performance of wind farms during fault circumstances as well as provides a sufficient platform for investigating conventional and non-conventional protection equipment for wind farms.

This paper presents a security constrained power system dynamic performance enhancement using particle swarm optimization (PSO) based on time domain simulation (TDS). The key feature of the security monitoring is the critical fault clearing time. Time-domain simulation is used to determine the unstable point of the power system based on bisection technique to reduce computation time. The Independent System Operator (ISO) should plan hours-ahead or days-ahead rescheduling to determine the optimal allocation of generated power from each generator based on the expected system disturbances. The objective is to find proper adjustments of the generated power that maintain acceptable security levels throughout the system and minimize system losses. The generation rescheduling (GR) is considered as a necessary remedial action to improve the system transient stability during the disturbances. PSO is used to determine the most suitable generation coordination among system generators.

This paper presents a new power-flow method for analyzing unbalanced distribution networks. In this method, an unbalanced distribution network Is decomposed to: 1) main three-phase network with three-phase line segments and 2) unbalanced laterals with two-phase and single-phase line segments. The proposed method allows solving the main three-phase network based on the decoupled positive-, negative, and zero-sequence networks. The unbalanced laterals are solved using the forward/backward method In phase components. The solution process Involves three main steps. Firstly, In phase components, the backward step Is executed to calculate an equivalent current Injection for each unbalanced lateral. Secondly, the main three-phase network Is solved In sequence components. The standard Newton-Raphson and fast decoupled methods are used for solving the positive-sequence network whereas the negative- and zero-sequence networks are represented by two nodal voltage equations. Finally, In phase components, the forward step Is performed to update the voltages In the unbalanced laterals. The three-steps are repeated till convergence happen. Distribution network characteristics such as line coupling, transformer phase shifts, voltage regulators, PV nodes, capacitor banks, and spot or distributed loads with any type and connection are considered. Solution of unbalanced radial feeders shows that the proposed hybrid algorithm Is accurate.

This is a nonlinear optimization problem in continuous variables. An efficient SA algorithm with an adaptive cooling schedule and a new method for variable discretization are implemented. The new algorithm minimizes the sum of the absolute value of the error in the estimated voltage signal, and does need any approximation in modeling the voltage signal. The proposed algorithm is tested on simulated and actual recorded data. Effects of sampling frequency as well as the number of samples on the estimated parameters are discussed, ft is shown that the proposed algorithm is able to identify the parameters of the voltage signal.

This paper proposes modified distribution factors (MDF) for computing the transmission power flows in terms of power generation outputs. The proposed MDF are capable for obtaining higher quality solutions for different power system problems. A modified particle swarm optimization (MPSO) version is proposed to solve the power dispatch problem. Comparison studies based on the optimal generation payment model are performed to show the superiority of the proposed MDF and MPSO compared to the existed methods. In the competitive environment, the use of the proposed distribution factors leads to fair allocation of users' responsibilities in recovery problems such as loss allocation and transmission usage allocation. Added to that, the use of the MPSO leads to competitive generation costs.

The paper presents a circuit model and controllers of fuel -cell -based distributed generation systems (DGS) in a standalone AC power supply. A dynamic model of the fuel cell is considered. To boost low -output DC voltage of the fuel cell to high DC voltage and to compensate for its slow response during the transient, two full-bridge DC-to-DC converters are adopted and their controllers are designed: a unidirectional full-bridge DC-to-DC boost converter for the fuel cell and a bidirectional full-bridge DC-to DC-buck/boost converter for the battery. For a three-phase DC-to-AC inverter, a discrete-time state space model in the stationary dq reference frame is derived, and two discrete-time-sliding mode controllers are designed: a voltage controller in the outer loop and a current controller in the inner loop.

In this paper an optimal based tariff design formulation is introduced for achieving load building or energy conservation DSM target objectives. For a load building DSM objective tariffs are usually designed in a decreasing form (higher consumption corresponds to lower average price per kWh); while for an energy conservation DSM objective tariffs are usually designed in an increasing form (higher consumption corresponds to higher average price per kWh). The introduced optimal tariff design model determines: tariff levels and their corresponding energy levels to achieve objective revenue levels as required by the aforementioned DSM targets. The optimal tariff formulation introduced in this paper utilizes the price of energy for each energy level as its control variables, while levels of energy consumption (energy block size), the corresponding number of consumers and revenues are the state variables. Total energy consumption and total number of consumers serve as the equality constraints. The proposed optimal tariff formulation structure is applied to the real data of the Egyptian residential and commercial consumer sectors and results are compared to the existing tariff structure.
