Optimal Distribution Automation Devices Placement for Reliability Improvement of a Real Distribution Network with Sub-Feeders Considering Customer Interruption Cost 考虑用户中断成本的带子馈线实际配电网可靠性优化配电自动化装置配置
Jabulani Masimula, K. Awodele
This paper presents predictive analytical and simulation approaches to reliability worth/cost assessments conducted on a test system and a typical Cape Town real system. Feeder 3 of bus 6 of the RBTS was utilized to illustrate various cases of switch configurations and for each arrangement the reliability indices were evaluated analytically as well as in Monte Carlo Simulation and results found to be similar. In this paper three scenarios were investigated in the Waterkloof Farmers-1 11 kV network (real system); Reliability assessment was firstly performed without automation devices (Scenario 1), secondly with automation devices in the current or existing positions (Scenario 2) and lastly, with optimal placement of the automation devices on the feeder using analytical and evolutionary algorithms methodologies (Scenario 3). The objective function behind placement can either be based on SAIDI or the ECOST and the best switch position for SAIDI might be worst position for the ECOST.

DepthwiseGANs: Fast Training Generative Adversarial Networks for Realistic Image Synthesis DepthwiseGANs:用于逼真图像合成的快速训练生成对抗网络
Mkhuseli Ngxande, J. Tapamo, Michael Burke
Recent work has shown significant progress in the direction of synthetic data generation using Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs). GANs have been applied in many fields of computer vision including text-to-image conversion, domain transfer, super-resolution, and image-to-video applications. In computer vision, traditional GANs are based on deep convolutional neural networks. However, deep convolutional neural networks can require extensive computational resources because they are based on multiple operations performed by convolutional layers, which can consist of millions of trainable parameters. Training a GAN model can be difficult and it takes a significant amount of time to reach an equilibrium point In this paper, we investigate the use of depthwise separable convolutions to reduce training time while maintaining data generation performance. Our results show that a DepthwiseGAN architecture can generate realistic images in shorter training periods when compared to a StarGan architecture, but that model capacity still plays a significant role in generative modelling. In addition, we show that depthwise separable convolutions perform best when only applied to the generator. For quality evaluation of generated images, we use the Fréchet Inception Distance (FID), which compares the similarity between the generated image distribution and that of the training dataset.
最近的研究表明,在使用生成对抗网络(GANs)合成数据生成的方向上取得了重大进展。gan已经应用于计算机视觉的许多领域,包括文本到图像的转换、域转移、超分辨率和图像到视频的应用。在计算机视觉中,传统的gan是基于深度卷积神经网络的。然而,深度卷积神经网络可能需要大量的计算资源,因为它们基于卷积层执行的多个操作,而卷积层可以由数百万个可训练的参数组成。训练GAN模型可能很困难,并且需要花费大量时间才能达到平衡点。在本文中,我们研究了使用深度可分离卷积来减少训练时间同时保持数据生成性能。我们的研究结果表明,与StarGan体系结构相比,deepwisegan体系结构可以在更短的训练时间内生成逼真的图像,但模型能力在生成建模中仍然起着重要作用。此外,我们表明深度可分离卷积仅应用于生成器时表现最佳。对于生成图像的质量评估,我们使用了fr起始距离(FID),它比较了生成图像分布与训练数据集之间的相似性。

Sailen Nair, William Becerra Gonzalez, J. Braid
This document details the design and implementation for an off-grid PV energy management system with key objectives being battery monitoring and energy forecasting. Coulomb counting is used to estimate the state of charge of a 24 V, 100 Ah lead-acid battery bank. An ACS712 hall effect current sensor module is used to implement the coulomb counter. A random forest regression model is used to predict solar irradiance with a root mean square error of 15.4%, when comparing actual Johannesburg irradiance data to predicted data. Energy forecasting is successfully done with a root mean square error of 6.2% for a three-day continuous test. It is concluded that the proposed solution successfully demonstrates a working principle for an energy management system, however, further improvements are needed to make the forecast model as accurate as possible.

Three-Phase Five-Limb Transformer Harmonic Analysis under DC-bias 直流偏置下三相五肢变压器谐波分析
T. T. Murwira, S. Mkhonta, D. Oyedokun, K. Folly, C. T. Gaunt
Geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) are dc-like currents that cause transformers to become a source of harmonics in a power system. This paper investigates the harmonic profiles and thresholds of dc currents that affect the operation of transformers subjected to dc current. Laboratory tests and Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations were conducted to examine the harmonics in three-phase five-limb (3p5L) transformers. The results show that there is high distortion in the transformer’s magnetizing current under dc-injections. This is characterized by the presence of even and odd harmonics in the transformer. The paper shall also give the dc current thresholds that causes the maximum allowable harmonics to be generated by the transformer.
地磁感应电流(GIC)是一种类似直流电的电流,它使变压器成为电力系统中的谐波源。本文研究了直流电流的谐波分布和阈值对变压器在直流作用下运行的影响。采用室内试验和有限元模拟方法对三相五肢(3p5L)变压器的谐波进行了分析。结果表明,在直流注入下,变压器的磁化电流存在较大畸变。其特点是变压器中存在奇偶谐波。文中还应给出导致变压器产生最大允许谐波的直流电流阈值。

R. Bhugwandeen, A. Saha
This paper presents a Binary Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm for strategic placement of additional protection devices to improve reliability on real KwaZulu-Natal distribution networks, each with unique characteristics. Historical data was used to model the performance of the components and simulated using DigSilent PowerFactory to evaluate reliability on the system. The results of each case study considered are reported and discussed to find the most economically feasible solution. The Binary Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm introduced results in minimal improvements after the addition of switches. Nonetheless, there are significant improvements in System Average Interruption Duration Index of up to 21% and Energy Not Served of 11% after the placement of additional reclosers.

A Comparison of Skin Detection Algorithms for Hand Gesture Recognition 手势识别中皮肤检测算法的比较
Timothy James McBride, Nabeel Vandayar, K. Nixon
Hand gesture recognition software is becoming more accessible with the advances in depth cameras and sensors, but these sensors are still expensive and not freely available. A real time Hand Gesture Recognition software is designed to work with a low cost monocular web camera. Skin detection and skin extraction is a common form of image processing used for gesture recognition. A comparison of three different skin detection algorithms is performed. The three algorithms are: YCbCr thresholding, RGB-H-CrCb thresholding and KNN Classification. The results obtained for each algorithm show that the algorithms are unreliable with a low mean and a large standard deviation. It was concluded that the uncertainty of the accuracy of each algorithm reduces the effectiveness of the hand gesture recognition software and it is not implemented in the final design. Alternative skin detection algorithms are suggested to improve on the accuracies and latencies obtained.
随着深度相机和传感器的进步,手势识别软件变得越来越容易获得,但这些传感器仍然很昂贵,而且不是免费的。一个实时的手势识别软件设计工作与低成本的单目网络摄像头。皮肤检测和皮肤提取是用于手势识别的一种常见的图像处理形式。对三种不同的皮肤检测算法进行了比较。这三种算法分别是:YCbCr阈值法、RGB-H-CrCb阈值法和KNN分类法。结果表明,各算法的均值较低,标准差较大,不可靠。结果表明,各算法精度的不确定性降低了手势识别软件的有效性,并没有在最终设计中实现。提出了不同的皮肤检测算法,以提高准确性和延迟。

Recloser placement on medium voltage distribution networks 中压配电网上的重合闸安置
Renaldo Strydom, P. Hertzog
Re-evaluating methods in any business is essential, as it reinforces knowledge, improves methodologies and proves concepts can possibly be used in other applications. Eskom’s standard for placing reclosers does not focus on the financial costs and benefits thereof it only focusses to reach their performance targets. The purpose of this paper is to present a method to optimise the placement of reclosers on the distribution networks. Eskom could by focusing at the financial benefits of recloser placement improve their performance targets as well as save more money in fault conditions. The recloser placements will be done using a design to cost methodology. Formulas and matrix tables will be used to determine the maximum number of reclosers to be installed and used for placements on networks. The findings prove that placing reclosers on the network using this method will payback itself within one year. The work to be done in this paper will give another dynamic when focusing on recloser placements that include finances and technical parameters combined to place reclosers. Future studies can be done by combining recloser placements with other protection sensing equipment Fault Path Indicators or Current Voltage Monitors to isolate and find faults on the network. using abbreviations in the abstract.

Bringing Back the Synchronous Compensator for the South Africa Power Network—Simulation and Compensator Technology 南非电网同步补偿器的回归仿真与补偿技术
Christopher Africa, U. B. Akuru, M. Kamper
With an increased penetration of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind in the South African power network, maintaining power system stability during network disturbance poses a major challenge. This paper is used to describe how synchronous compensators generally help to boost grid inertia and improve network dynamics in the event of a disturbance. The paper is also used to describe the functioning of a new type of synchronous compensator—the wound-field flux switching compensator (WF-FSC). Experimental tests conducted on a prototype shows that the WF-FSC does not only provide a more reliable technology, but it can also extend the reactive power range by operating without any field current due to saliency.
随着太阳能和风能等可再生能源在南非电网中的渗透率不断提高,在电网扰动期间保持电力系统的稳定是一项重大挑战。本文描述了同步补偿器在发生干扰时如何帮助提高电网惯性和改善网络动力学。本文还介绍了一种新型同步补偿器——绕场磁通开关补偿器(WF-FSC)的功能。在样机上进行的实验测试表明,WF-FSC不仅提供了一种更可靠的技术,而且由于显着性,它还可以在没有任何场电流的情况下工作,从而延长无功功率范围。

This paper is used to describe how synchronous compensators generally help to boost grid inertia and improve network dynamics in the event of a disturbance. The paper is also used to describe the functioning of a new type of synchronous compensator—the wound-field flux switching compensator (WF-FSC). Experimental tests conducted on a prototype shows that the WF-FSC does not only provide a more reliable technology, but it can also extend the reactive power range by operating without any field current due to saliency.","PeriodicalId":344332,"journal":{"name":"2019 Southern African Universities Power Engineering Conference/Robotics and Mechatronics/Pattern Recognition Association of South Africa (SAUPEC/RobMech/PRASA)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130858925","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}
