microgrids are small-scale, low voltage (lv) power networks which employ renewable distribution energy resources (ders) with power electronic interfaces (peis). microgrids as single controlled units and active distribution networks require flexible control systems to ensure reliable and secure operation in different modes. these various operations of microgrid cause variations in voltage and fr...

Non-synchronous breakage or line failure in power systems with light or no loads can lead to core saturation in transformers or potential transformers. This can cause component and capacitance matching resulting in the formation of resonant circuits, which trigger ferroresonance. This study employed a wavelet transform for the detection of ferroresonance. Simulation results demonstrate the effi...

DC bias current flowing into the neutral point of power transformer will seriously affect the normal operation of AC power system. In this paper, exciting current, harmonic component of the excitation current, magnetic flux density and noise of transformer were analyzed when the transformer is in the no-load operation state based on field-circuit coupled method. Through the calculation and anal...

The electronic current transformer plays an irreplaceable position in the field of relay protection and current measurement of the power system. Rogowski coils are used as sensor parts, and in order to improve the measurement accuracy and reliability, the circuits at the high voltage system are introduced and improved in this paper, including the analog integral element, the filtering circuit a...

Transformer tank vibration has been used for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of power transformers, as well as for the evaluation of radiated sound power from such power transformers. In both applications, seeking a correlation between transformer tank vibration and the vibration of the transformer windings and core becomes a challenge for fault identification and noise control at ...

This article addresses the decoupling control design for cascaded power electronic transformer (PET) in input-series–output-parallel connection. Due to coupling and interaction between submodules substages, essence it is a complex nonlinear system. A strategy based on feedback exact linearization (FEL) developed decouple all objectives so as realize dc-link output voltages fast stabilizing subm...

The paper analyzes the large power transformer unit regimes, indicating the criteria for the management of the voltage operating conditions, as well as the change in the operating conditions with the load connected to the secondary winding of the transformer unit.

The main goal of this paper is the determination of the effect of the metal oxide varistor (MOV) on various ferroresonance modes including fundamental resonance, subharmonic and chaos mode which are generated in electrical power systems. Chaos theory is used for analyzing this effect. Also, the bifurcation, phase plan diagram and time domain simulation are used for this purpose. The proposed po...
