This paper compares fault position and Monte Carlo methods as the most common methods in stochastic assessment of voltage sags. To compare their abilities, symmetrical and unsymmetrical faults with different probability distribution of fault positions along the lines are applied in a test system. The voltage sag magnitude in different nodes of test system is calculated. The problem with the...

An excitation control method using state feedback is applied to a hydroturbine synchronous generator in a multimachine power system, while an unsymmetrical fault or a three phase symmetrical fault being applied. The simulation results of the study show that the excitation controller performs satisfactorily in a multimachine environment, when operating in conjunction with the conventional regula...

Synchronous generators have always been the dominant generation type in the grid. This fact affected both planning and operation of power systems. With the fast increase of wind power share in the grid in the last decade, the situation is changing. In some countries wind power represents already a consistent amount of the total generation. Wind turbines can be classified as non-synchronous gene...

Three phase Squirrel Cage Induction Motors (SCIM) are continuously subjected to electrical, thermal, mechanical and environmental stresses in any industrial application. Such stresses can result in rotor bar damage. Due to such faults an unsymmetrical magnetic field will be setup and can lead to reduction in developed torque, increase in speed fluctuations, noise and vibrations. The present wor...

Hi-tech scenario and the ecological compression are the key point to drive the intervention of the renewable in the distribution system. In the perspective of complex power system planners, the transient performance of the microgrid is the main concern. For that purpose, various fault cases are explored in order to examine the microgrid transient performance when subjected to accidental events....

New method of observation and diagnosis of inverter-fed induction motor drives is developed and tested. Unsymmetrical conditions concerning the machine impedances or valves operation are reflected in the spectrum of the current spacephasor. We estimate the spectrum of the space-phasor with the help of the Wigner-Ville distribution (WVD) and we obtain its time-frequency representation with excel...

Abstract: New method of observation and diagnosis of inverter-fed induction motor drives is developed and tested. Unsymmetrical conditions concerning the machine impedances or valves operation are reflected in the spectrum of the current spacephasor. We estimate the spectrum of the space-phasor with the help of the WignerVille distribution (WVD) and we obtain its time-frequency representation w...

This paper proposes the use of bridge type fault current limiters (BFCLs) as a potential solution to reduce the impact of fault disturbance on voltage source converter-based high voltage DC (VSC-HVDC) systems. Since VSC-HVDC systems are vulnerable to faults, it is essential to enhance the fault ride-through (FRT) capability with auxiliary control devices like BFCLs. BFCL controllers have been d...
