Electric vehicles have been gaining attention as a cleaner means of transportation that is low-carbon and environmentally friendly can reduce greenhouse gas emissions air pollution. Despite EVs’ many advantages, widespread adoption will negatively affect the electric grid due to their random volatile nature. Consequently, predicting charging demand for becoming priority maintain steady supply e...

in this article, a multi-objective function for placement of distributed generation (dg) and capacitors with thetap setting of under load tap changer (ultc) transformer is introduced. most of the recent articles have paidless attention to dg, capacitor placement and ultc effects in the distribution network simultaneously. insimulations, a comparison between different modes was carried out with,...

Condition monitoring of electrical power equipment has attracted considerable attention for many years. The aim of this paper is to use Labview with Fuzzy Logic controller to build a simulation system to diagnose transformer faults and monitor its condition. The front panel of the system was designed using LabVIEW to enable computer to act as customer-designed instrument. The dissolved gas-in-o...

This paper addresses the optimum transformer design problem to minimize the active part cost of three phase core type distribution transformer. The transformer design process involves substantial heuristic exercise to select the design, best suited to a set of specifications. The design problem considers minimization of total cost of core and conducting material, while constraints are imposed o...

A partial discharge (PD) is the dissipation of energy caused by the buildup of localized electric field intensity. In high voltage devices such as transformers, this buildup of charge and its release can be symptomatic of problems associated with aging, such as floating components and insulation breakdown. This is why PD detection is used in power systems to monitor the state of health of high ...

Contactless Power Transfer (CPT) is the process of transferring power between two or more physically unconnected electric circuits or devices by means of magnetic induction. The potential application of CPT can range from power transfer to low power home and office appliances to high power industrial systems. Medical, marine, transportation, battery charging applications where physical connecti...

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...
