چکیده

Transformer model; Load flow analysis; Symmetrical components; Distribution systems Abstract This paper presents an efficient approach for developing three-phase transformer admittance matrices in the radial power-flow analysis. The proposed transformer model overcomes the singularity problem of the nodal admittance submatrices of ungrounded transformer configurations. This has been achieved by applying symmetrical components modeling. The classical (6 · 6) transformer nodal admittance matrix written in phase components is converted to sequence components instead of the (3 · 3) admittance submatrices. In this model, the phase shifts accompanied with special transformer connections are included in the radial power-flow solution process without any convergence problems. The final model of the transformer is represented by a generalized power-flow equation written in phase components. The developed equation is applicable for all transformer connections. The transformer model is integrated into the radial power-flow and tested using the IEEE radial feeders. The results have shown that the developed transformer model is very efficient and the radial power-flow has robust convergence characteristics. 2012 Ain Shams University.

Characterization of Power Transformer Electromagnetic Forces Affected by Winding Faults

Electromagnetic forces in power transformer windings are produced by interaction between the leakage fluxes and current passing them. Since the leakage flux distribution along the windings height is in two axial and radial directions, so the electromagnetic forces have two components, radial and axial. There is a risk that a large electromagnetic force due to the short circuit or inrush current...

Three-phase power flow analysis in sequence component frame using Hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization

Power flow is an important tool in power system studies. Usually, a power system is assumed to be balanced and the power flow analysis is carried out for the same. Practical power system networks are highly unbalanced and it is required to obtain load flow (power flow) solution for such unbalanced networks. The unbalancing in power system is unavoidable due to the untransposed transmission line...
