Probabilistic load flow in AC electrified railways

Load Flow Calculation and Short Circuit Fault Transients in AC Electrified Railways

A load flow and short circuit fault simulation of AC electrified railway distribution systems is presented with DIgSILENT PowerFactory software. Load flow of electrified railways distribution system with concerning multi train lines and dynamic characteristics of train load is studied for different time laps. The dynamic characteristics of train load in starting and braking conditions with diff...

Tap Adjustment in AC Load Flow

AC electrified jets in a flow-focusing device: Jet length scaling.

We use a microfluidic flow-focusing device with integrated electrodes for controlling the production of water-in-oil drops. In a previous work, we reported that very long jets can be formed upon application of AC fields. We now study in detail the appearance of the long jets as a function of the electrical parameters, i.e., water conductivity, signal frequency, and voltage amplitude. For interm...

Probabilistic Load Flow Considering Wind Generation Uncertainty

Renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar and hydro, are increasingly incorporated into power grids, as a direct consequence of energy and environmental issues. These types of energies are variable and intermittent by nature and their exploitation introduces uncertainties into the power grid. Therefore, probabilistic analysis of the system performance is of significant interest. This paper ...

Convex Relaxations of Probabilistic AC Optimal Power Flow for Interconnected AC and HVDC Grids

High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) lines and grids interconnect AC grids to increase reliability, facilitate integration of electricity markets and connect offshore wind generation. To address the growing uncertainty in the operation of such systems and fully utilize HVDC control capabilities, this work proposes a semidefinite relaxation of a chance constrained AC optimal power flow (OPF) for i...
