Application Of Domination Integrity Of Graphs In Pmu Placement In Electric Power Networks, Mariappan Saravanan, Ramalingam Sujatha, Raman Sundareswaran, Muthu Selvan Balasubramanian Jan 2018

Application Of Domination Integrity Of Graphs In Pmu Placement In Electric Power Networks, Mariappan Saravanan, Ramalingam Sujatha, Raman Sundareswaran, Muthu Selvan Balasubramanian

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we propose the application of the concept of power domination integrity to an electric power network. A phasor measurement unit (PMU) is used to analyze and control the power system by measuring voltage phase in electrical nodes and transmission lines. Due to the high cost of PMUs, it is necessary to minimize the number of PMUs such that the depth of observability is ensured. Placing PMUs in a network can be formulated as a graph theoretic problem of finding the minimum number of nodes (PMUs) in a graph that has a maximum number of links with other …


Extra High Voltage Transmission Line Operation Simulation Using The Actualcorona-Loss Characteristics, Ashraf Balametov, Elman Halilov, Tarana Isayeva Jan 2018

Extra High Voltage Transmission Line Operation Simulation Using The Actualcorona-Loss Characteristics, Ashraf Balametov, Elman Halilov, Tarana Isayeva

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In transmission line equations with distributed parameters, corona power losses are represented as conduc- tivity, i.e. corona losses considered as a function of the line voltage squared. On the other hand, valid corona power losses are 4-8 degree functions from voltage. Therefore, extra high voltage transmission line equations with the distributed parameters have methodical errors. Methodical errors of extra high voltage transmission line operation mode parame- ters modeling are estimated. The method of modeling extra high voltage transmission line operation mode taking into account actual corona-loss characteristics is offered. The cascade-connected scheme is used for increasing the accuracy of modeling …


Damping Wide-Area Oscillations In Power Systems: A Model Predictive Controldesign, Emrah Biyik, Munir Husein Jan 2018

Damping Wide-Area Oscillations In Power Systems: A Model Predictive Controldesign, Emrah Biyik, Munir Husein

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Electromechanical oscillations in power systems have been observed ever since synchronous generators were interconnected to provide reliability and higher generation capacity, and they have become a severe threat for the safe and economic operation of modern interconnected power grids. To dampen these oscillations, wide-area damping controllers (WADCs) have been introduced by utilizing wide-area measurement systems and synchronized phasor measurement units. In this paper, we present a systematic approach for designing WADCs using a model predictive control (MPC) technique to damp interarea oscillations in the power system. The MPC controller computes optimal control signals for the excitation system of a remote …
