When a microgrid is grid-tied to a distribution system, it can provide surplus power generation to the distribution system, if any abnormality or interruption occurs in the distribution system, the microgrid can operate in standalone mode to isolate the impact of the abnormality or interruption. However, if the microgrid can not collect enough information from the distribution system, it may cause the failure of generation transferring of distribution feeders, or even further influence the stability of the distribution system. In this paper, a strategy for the resilient control of a microgrid is proposed. It can solve the above-mentioned problem, reduce the duration of the outage of loads. This strategy is experimented in the microgrid in the Institute of Nuclear Energy Research (INER), the reliability is also analyzed to evaluate the unavailability of the microgrid in INER, and it is verified that the proposed strategy can reduce the duration of the outage of loads, and hence the reliability of a microgrid can be upgraded.

We present a Buildings-to-Grid (BtG) integration framework with intermittent wind-power generation and demand flexibility management provided by buildings. First, we extend the existing BtG models by introducing uncertain wind-power generation and reformulating the interactions between the Transmission System Operator (TSO), Distribution System Operators (DSO), and buildings. We then develop a unified BtG control framework to deal with forecast errors in the wind power, by considering ancillary services from both reserves and demand-side flexibility. The resulting framework is formulated as a finite-horizon stochastic model predictive control (MPC) problem, which is generally hard to solve due to the unknown distribution of the wind-power generation. To overcome this limitation, we present a tractable robust reformulation, together with probabilistic feasibility guarantees. We demonstrate that the proposed demand flexibility management can substitute the traditional reserve scheduling services in power systems with high levels of uncertain generation. Moreover, we show that this change does not jeopardize the stability of the grid or violate thermal comfort constraints of buildings. We finally provide a large-scale Monte Carlo simulation study to confirm the impact of achievements.

Photovoltaic (PV) power generation and the types of connected loads both have an effect on protective impedance relays’ readings. This paper investigates this effect in a real distribution system installed in the State of Kuwait. It is found that, both the dynamic loads and the PV plants have considerable effects in the relay impedance value which vary according to the load type, PV connection and fault locationplace. Both single phase to ground fault (unsymmetrical fault) and three phase fault (symmetrical fault) are investigated. When single line to ground fault occurs at the PV bus (far from relay location), the dynamic loads increase the relay impedance while the PV plant decreases the relay impedance. When a single phase to ground fault occurs at the relay bus (load bus), the dynamic load decreases the relay impedance and the PV plant increases it. For a three-phase to ground fault at the relay bus, both dynamic load percentages and PV plant power generation have no effect on the protective relay impedance readings. At this condition, the relay impedance totally depends on the fault resistance. The main finding of this paper is that both the load type (especially dynamic load) and the PV plant have dominant effects on the protective impedance relay reading and setting. The distribution system planners and operators must consider the PV plant and types of load during designing, setting and adjusting the protective impedance relays. The most important point in this paper is considering real case study. This means that, the obtained results are more realistic than the assumed system in the other research. If the fault occurs at the location of the PV system’s bus when no PV power is generated, the dynamic load causes the relay impedance to increase, while connecting the PV decreases the relay impedance. The relay’s resistance and reactance increase from 0.3153Ω and 1.4950Ω, to 0.3456Ω and 1.6617Ω respectively when the dynamic load increases from 25% to 90% of the total load at constant high fault resistance. The relay resistance and reactance decrease from 0.2849Ω and 0.3443Ω (without PV plant), to 0.2195Ω and 0.3137Ω (with PV), respectively. When the dynamic load percentage increases from 25% to 90%, the resistance and reactance of the relay decrease from 1.0488Ω and 0.0051Ω, to 0.9526Ω and 0.0008Ω, respectively. This phenomenon is valid for all expected fault resistances. When considering constant dynamic load percentage and constant fault resistance, the relay resistance and reactance increase from 1.375Ω and 0.0022Ω (without PV) to 1.5745Ω and 0.0726 Ω (with PV), respectively. Based on those results, the impedance relay setting must be adjusted according to the percentage of the dynamic loads percentage, the PV penetration level, and the fault location.

Photovoltaic (PV) technology is among the most efficient and cost effective renewable energy kinds currently available on the market. The connection of a large number of PVs to the grid may in?uence the frequency and voltage stability of the power system. This paper proposes load-frequency control technique for system with high penetration of Photovoltaic (PV). The proposed controller has been successfully implemented and tested using PSCAD/EMTDC. In this study. The impact of Photovoltaic (PV) on frequency stability of the system is studied in detail. This study shows that large penetration of Photovoltaic (PV) with load and frequency control has a signi?cant impact on the stability and security level of electrical network.

SummaryCase reports cited in Medline or Biological Abstracts (1966-1996) were reviewed to evaluate the impact of vitamin K1 dietary intake on the stability of anticoagulant control in patients using coumarin derivatives. Reported nutrient-drug interactions cannot always be explained by the vitamin K1 content of the food items. However, metabolic data indicate that a consistent dietary intake of vitamin K is important to attain a daily equilibrium in vitamin K status. We report a diet that provides a stable intake of vitamin K1, equivalent to the current U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance, using food composition data derived from high-performance liquid chromatography. Inconsistencies in the published literature indicate that prospective clinical studies should be undertaken to clarify the putative dietary vitamin K1-coumarin interaction. The dietary guidelines reported here may be used in such studies.

One of the main criteria for economic development is the size of the public debt and its dynamics. The article considers the impact of public debt on the financial security of Ukraine. The views of scientists on the essence of public debt and financial security of the state are substantiated. An analysis of the dynamics and structure of public debt of Ukraine for 2014-2019. It is proved that one of the main criteria for economic development is the size of public debt and its dynamics. State budget deficit, attracting and using loans to cover it have led to the formation and significant growth of public debt in Ukraine. The volume of public debt indicates an increase in the debt security of the state, which is a component of financial security. Therefore, the issue of the impact of public debt on the financial security of Ukraine is becoming increasingly relevant. The constant growth and large amounts of debt make it necessary to study it, which will have a positive impact on economic processes that will ensure the stability of the financial system and enhance its security.

Abstract Microorganisms have been shown to survive drinking water disinfection and remain viable in disinfected waters despite the presence of disinfectant residuals. This may be partially attributed to protection by particulate matter. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of the presence of particulate matter on disinfection kinetics. Sphingomonas paucimobilis ATCC 10829 and Helicobacter pylori ATCC 43504 were used in inactivation experiments in the presence and absence of soil, corrosion, and wastewater particles. The results showed that the presence of such particles tended to inhibit chlorine and monochloramine inactivation, although the magnitude of the impact under the conditions tested was small (e.g., 1-log reduction in inactivation for several minutes of contact time in the presence of less than 1 mg/L of disinfectant).
