Abstract

The cumulative number of historical and recent power system outages substantiates the fact that further studies are necessary for an improved solution to the issue of voltage instability on the grid and the subsequent system collapse. Voltage collapse is a serious reliability issue which inhibits the objective of running a reliable and secure power system network. In this study, a new line stability index (NLSI_1) for predicting voltage collapse is presented.  The new index considers a switching logic which is derived from the difference of voltage angle between the two load buses. The index is deployed for performance analysis using the 28-bus, 330-kV Nigeria National Grid (NNG).  The simulation implemented in MATLAB shows that the index gives the same results as Line stability index (Lmn) and Fast Voltage Stability Index (FVSI) indices. The base case and the contingency scenarios were considered during the simulation. The base case analysis using the NNG values of all the three indices FVSI, Lmn, and NLSI_1 for simulation generates a value less than one for the entire lines which implies that the NNG is stable in this mode. The values of the three indices are almost the same, which confirms the accuracy of the novel index developed. The analysis for the contingency case reveals that the load bus 16 (Gombe) which has the lowest, maximum permissible reactive load of 139.5MVAR is the weakest; also power line 16-19 is identified as the critical line. The result of the simulation confirms that the accuracy was improved by using NLSI_1.

Abstract

The ouput power of solar panel that decreased due to shading has been improved using bypass diode method. The placement of bypass diodes increased the output current and power. New peaks and maximum powerpoints on the current-svoltage characteristics and power-voltage characteristics were observed. Without bypass diodes, the maximum output power was only around 50 W. After placing bypass diodes, the first peak around 115 W and second peak around 150 W appeared at voltage of around 31 V and 40 V, respectively.

Abstract

The balance of the power supply and demand (frequency control) is one of the most ancient approaches for the power systems, which is considered as a highly complex system.The power systems frequency response is a perfect indicator of the resilience to the multi-disturbances. In this work, the fuzzy logichas been scaledusing PSO segmentation (SePSO) and suggested to get high performance of frequency stability. PSO has participated into multi-segments for calculating the scald-fuzzy membership with basic rules. Two identical interconnectedpower areas wereselected to exam the new scaled fuzzy method. The time response of the results has undertaken the effectiveness of the controller reactionusing the MATLAB Simulink. The work feed back proved that the proposed SePSO optimization for the controlhas significantly faster with low undershot concerningthe classical controllers in differenttime schedules and disturbance values.

Abstract

Association rule mining is intently used for determining the frequent itemsets of transactional database; however, it is needed to consider the utility of itemsets in market behavioral applications. Apriori or FP-growth methods generate the association rules without utility factor of items. High-utility itemset mining (HUIM) is a well-known method that effectively determines the itemsets based on high-utility value and the resulting itemsets are known as high-utility itemsets. Fastest high-utility mining method (FHM) is an enhanced version of HUIM. FHM reduces the number of join operations during itemsets generation, so it is faster than HUIM. For large datasets, both methods are very expenisve. Proposed method addressed this issue by building pruning based utility co-occurrence structure (PEUCS) for elimatination of low-profit itemsets, thus, obviously it process only optimal number of high-utility itemsets, so it is called as optimal FHM (OFHM). Experimental results show that OFHM takes less computational runtime, therefore it is more efficient when compared to other existing methods for benchmarked large datasets.

Abstract

In this paper, A novel modified optimization method was used to find the optimal location and size for placing distribution Static Compensator in the radial distribution test feeder in order to improve its performance by minimizing the total power losses of the test feeder, enhancing the voltage profile and reducing the costs. The modified grey wolf optimization algorithm is used for the first time to solve this kind of optimization problem. An objective function was developed to study the radial distribution system included total power loss of the system and costs due to power loss in system. The proposed method is applied to two different test distribution feeders (33 bus and 69 bus test systems) using different Dstatcom sizes and the acquired results were analyzed and compared to other recent optimization methods applied to the same test feeders to ensure the effectiveness of the used method and its superiority over other recent optimization mehods. The major findings from obtained results that the applied technique found the most minimized total power loss in system ,the best improved voltage profile and most reduction in costs due power loss compared to other methods .

Abstract

Studies indicate that the primary source of distress in pregnent mothers is their concerns about fetus’s condition and health. One way to know about condition of fetus is non-invasive fetal electrocardiogram signal extraction through which the components of fetal electrocardiogram signal are extracted from a signal recorded at abdominal area of mother which is a combination of fetal and maternal electrocardiogram signal and noise source components. The purpose of this study is to propose an algorithm to boost this extraction. To this end, we decomposed electrocardiogram signal to its Intrinsic Mode Functions (IMFs) thruogh Empirical Mode Decomposition algorithm; then, we removed the last and collected the other IMFs to reconstruct electrocardiogram signal without Baseline. Afterwards, we used Particle Swarm Optimization to train and adjust the parameters of Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System to model the path that maternal electrocardiogram signal travel to reach abdominal area. Accordingly, we were able to distinguish and remove maternal electrocardiogram signal components from the recorded signal and hence we obtained a good approximation of fetal electrocardiogram signal. We implemented our algorithm and other algorithms on simulated and real signals and found out that, in most cases, the proposed algorithm improved the extraction of fetal electrocardiogram signal.DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/ijece.v2i2.231

Abstract

Presently renewable energies have taken a special place in the world and most of the Distributed Generations (DGs) used in the interconnected power system are utilized, renewable energy resources. Due to the DG’s advantages, including use of renewable energy such as, clean nature, does not pollute environment and having endless nature the use of these renewable resources to produce electrical energy in the world are increasing in day to day life. One problem with such Distributed generators is an unintentional islanding phenomenon. Islanding occurs when a Distributed Generation continues to energize an isolated part of a power system even after it was disconnected from the main grid, which is surrounded by unpowered lines. Since islanding can cause hazardous conditions for people and equipment which is connected to it. As per IEEE 1547 DG Interconnection standards, islanding should be quickly detected within 2 seconds, by protective relays and inverters that are part of the DG system. In this paper, a new passive method to identify islanding states has been proposed, based on the rate of change of frequency analysis (ROCOF) for a multilevel inverter based solar distributed generation systems. This method is efficient for both connecting DGs to the network with or without the Inverter. This method is more efficient than the existing methods and reducing the Non Detection Zone (NDZ), which is the disadvantage of existing passive methods and also clearly differentiating between the Islanding and Non-islanding events. The simulation results, which are carried on the MATLAB/Simulink environment shows the performance of the proposed method.

Abstract

An eccentric rotor motion imbalances the magnetic field distribution in the air-gap region. Due to this uneven flux density distribution, a net radial force called Unbalanced Magnetic Pull (UMP) is in action towards the shortest air-gap. This UMP can degrade the machine’s performance. UMP can be controlled by a special kind of winding called Bridge Configured Winding (BCW). The BCW winding is a single set of winding which is used to produce the torque as well as the controllable force. The main contribution of this paper is to inspect the flow of bridge currents in the bridges when the machine is having rotor eccentricity or unbalance. The bridge currents in the presence of rotor eccentricity with the stator of an In­duction machine model has been analyzed by using an Electromagnetic Finite Element (FE) solver called Opera 2D/RM solver (Rotation Motion Analysis). The bridge currents have been measured for two different cases., (i) Induction machine model with zero eccentricity, (ii) Induction machine model with 10% static eccentricity of the air gap. Experimental re­sults are presented for the validation of Opera 2D/RM results. A modified 37kW Induction machine has been used for this study. A known mass unbalance is introduced in the perfo­rated disc in order to create the unbalance in the system purposefully. The bridge currents have been measured and compared with and without unbalance present in the system. The comparison of measured bridge currents for all the cases are given in the frequency domain.

Abstract

The fast increase of loads around the world has made electrical networks more and more complex and difficult to operate close to its capacities. This is has led to many problems such as voltage collapse and energy losses. Therefore, flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS) are considred as a best solution for solving these problems. Unified Power Flow Controller UPFC is one of the most important and powerful FACTS devices due to its ability to increase the transmission capacity of the power system and reduce the total line losses. The problem of optimizing its number, location and size has become an important requirement for best advantages of this device. In this paper, a proposed relationship to identify the maximum number of FACTS devices that can be installed for a given power network is introduced in the search process code to determine the optimal number, optimal placement and size of UPFC device to enhance voltages profile and reduce overall system losses in the standard IEEE 14 bus test system using genetic algorithm (GA). The obtained results show clearly that all control parameters of UPFCs in each case are within their limits, and whenever the number of UPFCs installed increases, both voltage deviation and total losses well decreases. They also show that the application of the proposed relationship in the search process code facilitates greatly the search for optimal number, optimal placement and size of UPFC devices and reduces the calculation time. On the other hand, the obtained results has been scientifically justified and compared with other works reported in the literature.

Abstract

This paper, introduced an expression of Economic Efficiency Measure (EEM) to permit quick evaluation for replacement of faulty induction motor with alternative (new or refurbished motor) for lowest life-cycle cost based on efficiency and rated-load conditions. This approach, simplifies the process for evaluating the energy efficiency to mere proportionate factor called as EEM. During the operating phase, the motor losses correspond to extra energy consumption, based on various parameters like motor operating conditions, operating hours, operating costs, fault factor, depreciation factor and fixed costs.  The approach is effective in addressing the global issue on replacement of the faulty motor that needs a comprehensive analysis and mathematical expression. Compared to other alternatives the EEM provides a simple but effective and reliable means to asses, the feasibility of replacing or refurbishing the faulty motor. A detail analysis here would establish how much the present approach is effective in determining the replacement for a faulty induction motor either by a new one or refurbished one of corresponding rating.
