Integration of Protection and Control for Railway Power Systems

چکیده
The technology in intelligent terminals enables communication from the process level to the SCS, substation, SCADA/EMS, and the network levels. Any function and parameter can be programmed and changed remotely. Automatic sequences can be included on bay and substation levels utilising the SCS. In addition, with serial communication, binary inputs, and user programming, it is possible to adapt for external criteria in real time. In total this allows for adaptive functions on all levels in "The Intelligent Substation".

An LCL-filtered Single-phase Multilevel Inverter for Grid Integration of PV Systems
Integration of the PV into the electrical grid needs power electronic interface. This power electronic interface should have some key features and should come up with grid codes. One of the important criteria is the quality and harmonic contents of the current being injected to the grid. High-order harmonics of the grid current should be very limited (lower than 0.3% of the fundamental current)...

متن کاملAn Efficient Strategy for Power Rating Reduction of Back-to-Back Converters Used in Railway Power Conditioner
One of the most common solutions to deal with the power quality issues of electrical railway systems is employing Railway Power Conditioner (RPC). In the conventional mode of operation, the RPC power rating deployed in every Traction Power Substation (TPS) is significantly large. This paper mainly focuses on the power rating reduction of RPC through presenting a novel combinatorial compensation...

AC railway traction loads are usually huge single phase loads. As a result, a significant amount of Negative Sequence Current (NSC) is injected into utility grid. Moreover, harmonics and consumption ofreactive power are further power quality problems that the supply network is encountering. In this paper, acompensation strategy with the aid of Railway Power Conditioner (RPC) is proposed to over...
متن کاملDC Microgrid Protection in the Presence of the Photovoltaic and Energy Storage Systems
In recent years, most of the loads and distributed generations are connected to the AC grid through the power electronic converters. Using the DC grid beside the AC grid can reduce the conversion stages and power losses. Protection of the DC grids is a challenging issue because of the new structures of DC grids and fast transients of the DC faults. This paper studies the protection of the low v...
متن کاملA Direct Power Feeding System for AC Railway Networks Using Modular Multilevel Converter
Abstract Traditional railway power supply systems impose substantial power quality problems (PQ) on the utility network, such as unbalance, harmonics and a large amount of reactive power. This paper proposes a topology based on three-phase to single-phase modular multilevel converters (MMC) to obviate these problems. The MMC based traction substations (TSS) are connected directly to the utili...
