Analisis Pengaruh Penambahan Penyulang Dan Pemisahan Beban Terhadap Susut Daya Menggunakan Metode Simple Branch Exchange (Studi Kasus PT PLN ULP Lima Puluh, Sumatera Utara)

During the distribution process there will be a loss of some of the energy that is channeled. This phenomenon is known as losses. This is caused by technical and non-technical factors. In the State Electricity Service (PLN) system, distribution losses or energy losses is calculated by measuring the difference between kWh produced and kWh sell. This kWh difference is the electrical energy lost during the starting process from the generation or secondary side of the Substation to customers’ APP. Cumulatively, the amount of kWh at all base sources is 73,769.524 kWh while the distribution loss that occurs in JTM is 5,835.008 or 7.91%. One way to overcome and minimize distribution losses in the 20 kV Procurement Service Unit (ULP) of Lima Puluh distribution system is to analyze the distribution network system, add new feeders and break the load on the electrical system. The simple branch exchange method is used to separate the network load, which is done by adding a switch by turning the on or off channel and searching for the configuration that produces the smallest power loss and calculating the power loss based on the network load. Based on the simulation results using the ETAP 12.6 software, the results of the energy loss of Procurement Service Unit (ULP) of Lima Puluh is 5,864,112 kWh then decreased after load separation of 4,341,348 kWh. The value of power loss before load separation is 1,955 kW and a decrease in power loss after load separation is 1,484.5 kW. The investment cost incurred for the construction of a new feeder is RP. 22,000,000,000,- with a payback of 9.9 years. Keywords: Feeder, Power Loss, Energy Loss, ETAP 12.6.

On the stiffness of surfaces with non-Gaussian height distribution

In this work, the stiffness, i.e., the derivative of the load-separation curve, is studied for self-affine fractal surfaces with non-Gaussian height distribution. In particular, the heights of the surfaces are assumed to follow a Weibull distribution. We find that a linear relation between stiffness and load, well established for Gaussian surfaces, is not obtained in this case. Instead, a power law, which can be motivated by dimensionality analysis, is a better descriptor. Also unlike Gaussian surfaces, we find that the stiffness curve is no longer independent of the Hurst exponent in this case. We carefully asses the possible convergence errors to ensure that our conclusions are not affected by them.

It's a matter of (executive) load: Separation as a load-dependent resetting procedure

Lee and Schwarz made considerable theoretical advances in the psychology of cleansing by proposing that cleaning actions might serve as separation procedures between two psychological entities. Here, we propose that the effectiveness of the separation process may be modulated by the available amount of executive resources, and that separation may operate as a load-dependent resetting procedure.

Modeling of overloads of raising mechanism in metallurgical overhead cranes

Electromechanical processes occurring when the load is lifted by an overhead crane are considered. The main idea of the work is to identify emergency mode (crane overload) by a method based on control of stator current of lift motor. To obtain stator current diagrams of electric motor, mathematical model of overhead crane (three-mass circuit) has been developed, which includes equations describing elastic properties of crane beams and its rope. A system of (α, β) coordinates, fixed relative to electric motor stator, is adopted to describe the drive asynchronous motor. Lifting cycle is considered as sequence of three steps: choice of the rope “slack”; rope tension; separation of cargo lifting. For each stage, a system of differential equations has been compiled describing motion of masses of overhead crane elements and electrical parameters of electric motor. Initial and boundary conditions for each of the stages were determined. Preliminary transformations of the system of equations to their solution by numerical methods and subsequent modeling of stages of lifting loads were carried out for different weights. Sequential solution of three boundary value problems allows obtaining values of stator currents at time of load separation. Diagrams of stator phase currents of an electric motor were obtained for loads of different mass. Simulation results indicate the presence of fixable difference in magnitudes of stator currents after the load is separated from the support surface. On basis of the developed model and the study results, a functional diagram of crane overload protection device is proposed and its principle of operation is described. It consists in controlling lifted load mass and stator current when liftingthe load. Conclusion is made about feasibility and effectiveness of monitoring electrical values of lifting motor for development of overhead crane protection against overloads. Effectiveness of the proposed system was evaluated.
