This paper is aimed at determining the effect of a variable number of Type 4 wind turbines in the total generation of the corresponding electric power system on the parameters of an asynchronous regime of such a system. Processes occurring in an electric power system were simulated using an all-mode real-time simulation complex of electric power systems constituting a multi-processor software and hardware system. A model of an electric power system was developed, which, in addition to conventional power sources, included a wind-operated power plant combining a variable number of Type 4 wind turbines. The automatic control system of the simulated wind-operated power plant comprised a control loop (in terms of active power and voltage) equipped with an additional regulator of virtual inertia. An analysis of changes in the parameters of the asynchronous regime using a virtual inertia algorithm showed that the time of its advancement along the protected line was reduced maximally by 0.1 s. However, the time of the first cycle of asynchronous motion between two generators in the post-emergency regime increased by 2 times. Thus, for a wind-operated plant with a capacity of 100 MW, the time of asynchronous motion was 0.36 sec and 0.74 sec without using and when using a virtual inertia algorithm, respectively. It was experimentally confirmed that an increase in the power of a wind-operated power plant leads to a decrease in both the time of advancement of the asynchronous regime and the time, during which conventional generators transit from the synchronous regime. The latter was evidenced by the effect of Type 4 wind turbines on the value of total inertia, which ranged from 8.746 to 5.478 s. A study of the virtual inertia algorithm confirmed its impact on the electromechanical transient processes in power systems. The most favourable effect was noted at a virtual inertia value of 2 s and a wind-operated power plant capacity of 100 MW.

The relevance of the study is due to the development herein of a model for reliability optimization of stand-alone power systems with wind turbines and electrochemical power storage devices, with special emphasis within this model put on the specifics of power equipment operation. The key feature of the model developed is that it enables us to factor in the requirements to be met by the equipment as arising from the considerations of dynamic stability of the stand-alone system. When simulating battery storage operating modes, the charge-discharge limits as well as the remaining charge in the storage are taken into account. Thus, the reduction of the total number of considered mixes of the equipment being commissioned is achieved, the computational efficiency of the reliability optimization method is increased, while the validity of modeling results is improved. Development of methods for optimization of reliability of stand-alone electric power systems with wind turbine installations and electrochemical power storage devices while meeting requirements for electrodynamic stability. A stand-alone power system that is assumed to be located in the coastal area of Lake Baikal in the Kabansky State Nature Reserve, Republic of Buryatia, Russia, serves as the object of the study. Calculations are based on multiple simulation of modes of operation of the electric power system by means of the Monte Carlo method. The values of random variables are modeled as per specified laws of distribution and fault rate indicators of power equipment. Modeling of power generation at wind turbines is based on a detailed analysis of real-life weather data (average hourly wind speed, air density and humidity). The method of reliability optimization of stand-alone power systems with wind turbines and electrochemical energy storage devices was developed so as to take into account the requirements to be met by electric power equipment in terms of dynamic stability. The optimization criterion is the minimum expected value of the cost of produced electricity. Power redundanct and energy storage devices are used as means of reliability assurance. The results of calculations attest to the fact that for the natural and climatic zone under consideration, the use of vertical axis wind turbines in a stand-alone power system proves more efficient than the use of horizontal axis wind turbines

This proposal is aimed to overcome the problem that arises when diverse regulation devices and controlling strategies are involved in electric power systems regulation design. When new devices are included in electric power system after the topology and regulation goals were defined, a new design stage is generally needed to obtain the desired outputs. Moreover, if the initial design is based on a linearized model around an equilibrium point, the new conditions might degrade the whole performance of the system. Our proposal demonstrates that the power system performance can be guaranteed with one design stage when an adequate adaptive scheme is updating some critic controllers’ gains. For large-scale power systems, this feature is illustrated with the use of time domain simulations, showing the dynamic behavior of the significant variables. The transient response is enhanced in terms of maximum overshoot and settling time. This is demonstrated using the deviation between the behavior of some important variables with StatCom, but without or with PSS. A B-Spline neural networks algorithm is used to define the best controllers’ gains to efficiently attenuate low frequency oscillations when a short circuit event is presented. This strategy avoids the parameters and power system model dependency; only a dataset of typical variable measurements is required to achieve the expected behavior. The inclusion of PSS and StatCom with positive interaction, enhances the dynamic performance of the system while illustrating the ability of the strategy in adding different controllers in only one design stage.

The disruption of the electric power system due to overcurrent causes a trip to the 3rd generator of pesanggaran power plant . This causes a decrease in frequency due to the system losing its supply. Frequency interference can be detected automatically with UFR (Under Frequency Relay). The working principle of UFR is to compare the value of the system frequency and the value of the frequency setting. The comparison will determine how much load is released to balance the generator supply. This study analyzes UFR performance at Pesanggaran Substation by simulating a case of the generator being released so as to produce a decreased system frequency state. The method used is by comparing the ETAP simulation results and calculation results. The results of the comparison obtained the system recovery time when the conditions (gen1 tripped), (gen1 and gen2 tripped), and (gen1, gen2, and gen3 tripped), each is 1.171s; 4,531s; and 4,514s.

Transients in electric power systems are of great interest to power engineers when designing a new or maintaining an existing system. The paper deals with using hybrid system theory for modeling and simulation of an electric power system with controllers. The presented technique is rather convenient and recommended as mathematical models of transients in electric power systems with controllers in general contain both continuous and discrete components. The modeling and simulation were carried out in the modeling and simulation environment ISMA, which is briefly presented in the paper.

This work proposes a new method for fault diagnosis in electric power systems based on neural modules. With this method the diagnosis is performed by assigning a neural module for each type of component comprising the electric power system, whether it is a transmission line, bus or transformer. The neural modules for buses and transformers comprise two diagnostic levels which take into consideration the logic states of switches and relays, both internal and back-up, with the exception of the neural module for transmission lines which also has a third diagnostic level which takes into account the oscillograms of fault voltages and currents as well as the frequency spectrums of these oscillograms, in order to verify if the transmission line had in fact been subjected to a fault. One important advantage of the diagnostic system proposed is that its implementation does not require the use of a network configurator for the system; it does not depend on the size of the power network nor does it require retraining of the neural modules if the power network increases in size, making its application possible to only one component, a specific area, or the whole context of the power system.

The renewable energy take part in the most of the electric power systems in the modern world. The part of this type of energy in the global electric power system, as well as in the local scale, increases with the setting the stricter requirements for decreasing the level of the carbon dioxide emissions. This is the result of the newest international conventions and decision for saving the nature. By these conditions, the electric power systems are forced to work with more different types of energy sources: wind power, photovoltaic, biomass plants etc. Switching of such miscellaneous power sources, leads to complicated transient processes, which are developed due to specific electrical parameters, especially harmonic components, of the synchronous generators, photovoltaic and wind power plants. This paper represents data from measurements of the transient processes into the physical model of the electric power system with predominant part of renewable energy and assesses the applicability of the model. For conducting this study, the multichannel DAQ measurement system is used.
