Electrohydraulic effect is used in various fields of industry and agriculture: for cleaning metal casting forms, cleaning pipes of power boilers, treatment of heating radiators, soil treatment and water disinfection. Existing technical means for water disinfection with high-voltage discharges are expensive, cumbersome and untransportable. Currently used installations use an operating voltage of 10-50 kilovolts, capacitors designed for a voltage of no more than 100 kilovolts, with a capacity of 0.025 microfarads. Water disinfection according to the conducted research can be carried out with a voltage of 10 kilovolts. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in developing and manufacturing a laboratory electrohydraulic installation for water disinfection, which has a technical novelty in terms of mobility and compactness for implementing a method of water disinfection at a voltage of no more than 10 kilovolts. (Materials and methods) During the research, next materials, equipment and devices were used: power supply; transformer; capacitor; forming gap; working body; shunt resistance. (Results and discussion) The principle of the electrohydraulic effect, which is a consequence of the occurrence of electrohydraulic shocks between high-voltage electrodes placed in a liquid, is the basis for the development and manufacture of the installation. Authors developed a structural diagram of a laboratory electrohydraulic unit for water disinfection. The article presents an experimental sample of a laboratory installation for water disinfection, which has a technical novelty in terms of mobility and compactness for implementing a method for water disinfection at a voltage of no more than 10 kilovolts.

This paper treats the study of the equivalent magnetic flux leakage transformer core type; it uses three-phase high voltage power supplies for a magnetron in each phase. This special transformer feeds a voltage doubler, a current stabilizer cell in series per phase. It ensures the anodic current stabilization in each magnetron by saturation of its magnetic circuit. It has additional leakage flux, which protects the magnetron against any eventual voltage variation; it is considered the basic element of this power supply.The simulation results with MATLAB-Simulink environment of the electrical operation of this power supply device were consistent with the experimental laboratory tests in the case of single-phase high voltage for one magnetron. This results obtained shows the feasibility of the proposed simulation model

In order to make high-voltage transmission line anti-icing without interrupting power supply, OLTC anti-icing devices can be used for reducing the line voltage and increasing operating current to undermine the conditions of icing formation. The relevant relay setting values of the anti-icing line needs to be modified accordingly. In this paper, the research on how to reset the value of the 110kV and 220kV lines had been done after the OLTC equipment was implemented, and the principle of relay protection setting related to the change of line operating voltage and current had been given. A digital simulation of an area which encountered the icing disaster in 2008 had been done and the results shows that the reset relay protection setting of relevant relay protection is reasonable.

The influence of the periodicity of diagnostic measurements on the operational state of high-voltage transformers is considered. Examples of defects of switching devices of converter transformers and methods for their detection are given. The rationale for the importance of recognition of defects at an early stage of their occurrence is given. The influence of the multiplicity of overvoltages on the service life of converter transformers in the aluminum industry is investigated. Based on the analysis of the service life of converter transformers of one of the powerful aluminum plants, where 83% of converter transformers have exhausted their standard service life, it is shown that in 40% of cases it would be possible to avoid their failures, with timely detection and elimination of emerging defects. Examples of defects of OLR (on-load regulators) of converter transformers and methods for their detection are given. The importance of recognition of defects at an early stage of their occurrence is substantiated. A method for chromatographic analysis of dissolved gases in transformer oil has been developed for the qualitative determination of defects and ways to eliminate them. Examples of diagnostics of converter transformers at operating voltage and working load are given, providing the best quality operational characteristics of converter transformers. The periodicity of diagnostic measurements and the reduction of defects and failures has been substantiated. The question of diagnosing the state of the converter transformer TDNP-40000/10 at an enterprise of the aluminum industry is investigated. Currently, diagnostic methods are being developed based on chromatographic analysis of dissolved gases in transformer oil. The presented method of evaluating the operating parameters of transformers allows for the safe operation of high-voltage transformers and enables to increase the reliability of the power supply scheme of aluminum industry plants.

As for the wide application of arc suppression coil to the grounding in neutral point of mine high voltage grid, grid leakage fault rules and harmonic characteristics of the neutral point grounding system through arc suppression coil are analyzed, the selective leakage protection program “zero-sequence voltage starts, fifth harmonics of grid zerosequence voltage and zero-sequence current are extracted for phase comparison” is proposed, and corresponding fifth harmonic extraction circuit and power direction discrimination circuit are designed. The experimental results show that the protective principle applies not only to the neutral point insulated power supply system, but also to the power supply system in which neutral point passes arc suppression coil, which can solve selective leakage protection problems under different neutral grounding ways, improving the reliability of selective leakage and guaranteeing the stability of the action value.

During the functioning of power supply system, there can be situations where the culprit in interruptions of power supply to consumers and a power quality violation is a power supply company or a consumer himself. Therefore, the economic incentive for power supply companies and consumers to increase power supply reliability and power quality is an urgent task. To implement such incentives, it is necessary to control the facts and time of power supply outages and their values as well as cases and time of non-compliance of power quality with the requirements of standards. It is possible with the use of a monitoring system for power supply reliability and power quality. (Research purpose) The research purpose is in developing a technical and economic method for stimulating power supply companies and consumers to increase efficiency of power supply system. (Materials and methods) The article provides a review of the structural diagram of a system for monitoring power supply reliability and power quality including devices for monitoring the number and duration of power outages and voltage deviations. (Results and discussion). An economic method has been developed to stimulate power supply companies and consumers to increase power supply system efficiency. The essence of the method is to control the parameters of power supply reliability and power quality, identify the violation of these parameters, determine the culprit of the violation, determine the time characteristics of the violation, summarize the duration of violations for the reporting period, compare the actual amount of duration with the allowable one, determine the amount of compensation for the violation and impose sanctions on payment compensation by the perpetrators of violations of these parameters. The article presents an algorithm for adjusting the cost of electricity supplied to consumers depending on the number and duration of voltage deviations and the number and duration of outages. The algorithm serves to ensure the operation of the specified technical and economic method. (Conclusions) The algorithm works in conjunction with a system for monitoring power supply reliability and power quality based on signals from devices that control the number and duration of outages and voltage deviations.

The modern level of agriculture is described by the introduction of renewable energy sources. New generation sprinkler machines are being put into production, in the power system of which solar panels are used. One of the factors that negatively affect the performance of solar cells in an open field is their dusting, which is formed as a result of dust storms and wind. Cleaning of the battery panels is carried out in various ways: manual, semi-automatic and automatic. Dust cleaning is included in maintenance. (Research purpose) The research purpose is to determine the conditions for performing the maintenance, which consists in cleaning solar panels in the field. (Materials and methods) Theoretical (analysis, hypothesis design), empirical (observation, testing), experimental (ascertaining experiment) methods has been used during research. (Results and discussion) The article describes an introduced parameter for estimating the level of dusting. The power loss indicator shows the ratio of the power of the dusted module to the power of the clean module. Unscheduled maintenance is affected by the distance of the solar module from the repair point, the power of the solar module, the loss from dusting, the frequency of maintenance and cost indicators. (Conclusions) It has been found the dependence of maintenance period of the solar module of the sprinkler machine on the distance to the sprinkler machine, to the point of maintenance and repair, the power loss coefficient in case of dusting of the solar module, the cost of performing maintenance, as well as the frequency of maintenance. Article describes the boundaries of the choice of operating mode of the sprinkler between unscheduled maintenance for cleaning the solar module and the acceptance of additional power of the sprinkler power supply system according to the criterion of minimum operating costs.
