Abstract:
A wind energy system transforms the kinetic energy of wind into mechanical or electrical energy that can be harnessed for practical use. Mechanical energy is most commonly used for pumping water in rural or remote locations. Electrical energy is obtained by connecting wind turbine with the electricity generator. The performance of the wind power plant depends on the wind kinetic energy. It depends on the number of design parameter of the wind turbine. For the wind power plant the wind kinetic energy conversion depends on the average wind velocity, mechanical energy conversion into electricity, and electricity transmission. Resilience of the wind power plant is the capacity of the system to withstand changes of the following parameters: wind velocity, mechanical energy conversion into electricity, electricity transmission efficiency and electricity cost. Resilience index comprise following indicators: change in wind velocity, change in mechanical energy conversion efficiency, change in conversion factor, change in transmission efficiency, and change in electricity cost. The demonstration of the resilience index monitoring is presented by using following indicators, namely: average wind velocity, power production, efficiency of electricity production, and power-frequency change. In evaluation of the resilience index of wind power plants special attention is devoted to the determination of the resilience index for situation with priority given to individual indicators.

Abstract:
Reactive power is essential to control the power system's voltage stability as the reactive power is directly proportional to the voltage. Hence, every new solar photovoltaic (PV) plant installed in the grid system must comply with the grid code requirements to ensure that the electricity supply remains stable and reliable. As the more penetration of PV plants, the electrical system will face some challenges related to reactive power control and voltage support. Thus, many countries including Malaysia have updated their grid codes to permit a smooth interaction between these new plants with the grid system. The inverter of PV solar connected to grid system are required to supply rated power output (MW) at point of common coupling (PCC) between the limits of 0.85 power factor lagging, and 0.95 leading follow to the Malaysian Grid Code (MGC) requirement. Hence, this research aims to design a controller for the PV inverter in Matlab/Simulink that able to absorb and supply the reactive power. Then, the comparison will execute between the simulation results and the MGC requirement. However, due to power loss in the system, the PV inverter controller may not comply with the reactive power capability as the MGC requirement. Thus, the PV system need to integrate with the capacitor bank as a reactive power compensator.

Abstract:
Abstract The sun is one of the potential renewable energy sources in Indonesia. One use of solar energy is to generate electricity. The Politeknik Negeri Jember Engineering Building already has a hybrid type solar power plant. However, it has not been utilized optimally because it is not connected to the building’s electrical network. This research aims to plan the connection of a solar power plant with an engineering building lighting system. The electrical network for the Engineering Department building that will be supplied by the solar power plant is the electric lighting system on the 3rd floor. The cable chosen is 4 mm2 with a cable length of 81 meters. Electrical connection from the solar power plant to the engineering building electrical network is carried out via an automatic transfer switch. If the condition of the electricity generated is adequate, the electricity will be connected automatically to the building’s lighting electricity network. If the electrical energy produced is insufficient or has run out, the lighting electricity network will automatically connect to the main electricity source. The building’s solar power plant is equipped with an internet of things system to monitoring its performance. The daily lighting electricity consumption is around 2.55 kwh.

Abstract:
Diesel engine power plant, gas turbine power plant and steam turbine power plant are in common use in ship main propulsion power. These power plants have each advantage and disadvantage at mass, size, most high-power, economic ability, and maneuverability. But any single power is difficult to meet the requirement of improving the ships’ tactical performance, speed and maneuverability. In developing history of ship propulsion system, in order to solve the contradiction between full speed high-power and cruise economic ability, combined power plant form can change the performance of simple plant, which collected the advantage of all kinds of power plants[1]. Here combined power plant form is two or more same or not the same type engine combine used or trade off. The combined power plant can not only supply total power for ships when cruising, but also be more economical. So this plant is used widely. This paper, designs a multi-module experiment-rig and introduces its composition, working principle and disposition scheme, and carried out the dynamic characteristic experiment of the CODAG power plant.

ELETROBRAS - CENTRAIS ELÉTRICAS BRASILEIRAS S. A.
As curvas de capacidade de geração de potência reativa fornecidas pelos fabricantes são elaboradas em função dos parâmetros de projeto do gerador, e geralmente não consideram as condições de operação da planta e do sistema como fatores limitantes. É sabido que as condições de operação da planta, tais como tensões nominais do terminal do gerador e das barras auxiliares, valores limites dos reguladores de tensão, potência máxima da turbina e dispositivos de limitação e proteção de sub e sobreexcitação podem ser fatores limitantes da capacidade de geração e absorção de potência reativa. Neste trabalho foi elaborado um método e desenvolvida uma ferramenta computacional para identificar a curva de capacidade real de geração de potência reativa para qualquer ponto de operação. Este trabalho pode ser estendido para qualquer gerador, conhecidas as características da usina. Nos estudos de caso apresentados pôde-se verificar que é possível ampliar a capacidade de geração reativa da usina apenas conhecendo seus reais limites, não necessitando portanto, de grandes investimentos para o aumento dessa capacidade.

Abstract:
As recently as 2016, the performance of South Africa’s power utility has shown that it is not resilient enough to withstand the consequences of a power system blackout. Blackouts are defined as being a form of power system instability that can be brought about by a variety of abnormal network scenarios. The most common modes of failure are grouped under the term power system stability. In this dissertation, the different modes of power stability that can affect a nuclear power station will be investigated and discussed. The particular phenomenon that will be focused on, however, is the effect that voltage instability has on the ability of generators and loads to perform their standard functions, thus ensuring a secure power system. To investigate the effect that voltage instability has on a nuclear power station, this dissertation will look at relevant literature on the topic. In addition, by extracting from common examples of national and international occurrences of voltage stability, this dissertation will record the effects that this phenomenon has on the security of a power system, in particular on nuclear power plants. To model the network containing a nuclear power plant for the evaluation of voltage stability, the different mathematical models of the generation plant are presented, which include: the automatic voltage regulator, power system stabilizer, governor, nuclear reactor, and excitation system. Also presented are mathematical models of network equipment such as under voltage tap changers and the dynamic loads that are of interest when evaluating voltage stability. The models used for evaluation of the voltage stability phenomenon affecting a nuclear power plant and the surrounding integrated power system are built in the Digsilent PowerFactory® software. The scenario for evaluation is based on a voltage stability event that occurred around at the Koeberg nuclear power system situated in the Western Cape province on South Africa on 15 October 2003. It is commonly accepted that voltage stability can be evaluated at a steady state level by performing power versus voltage (PV) analysis to determine the voltage buses vulnerable to voltage collapse, and reactive power versus voltage (QV) analysis to determine the critical reactive devices required to avert a voltage instability event. The scenarios that are evaluated for voltage stability are divided into two sections: i) a PV and QV analysis as per the event that occurred on 15 October 2003 and ii) present-day voltage stability indices for PV and QV if mixed with a generation such as renewable energy sources that include wind, solar, biomass and concentrated solar power (CSPs). The result reveals the vulnerabilities of the nuclear power plant and the surrounding integrated power system due to a voltage instability event. Some of the solutions proposed include a review of the typical power system protection schemes — such as under and overvoltage detection scheme — that are used. In the study, PV and QV curves provide v good indications of the state of critical busbars and the reactive power reserve margins available before instability can potentially settle in. Simulations confirmed the effectiveness of critical equipment installed in the Western Grid and the effect on their electrical parameters such as torque and the slip on motors.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The behaviour of induction motors at a petrochemical plant under transient conditions was investigated with the view to improve plant immunity to voltage fluctuations. The benefits of using a phase-variable induction motor model rather than the simpler d-q models usually employed are investigated. A simplified model of the plant electrical distribution system was derived. Phase variable and d-q induction motor models were implemented as well as a synchronous generator model. Practical considerations precluded the use of commercial software for the simulation of transient conditions and a basic simulation program was developed using Matlab to evaluate the behaviour of the dynamic machine models and distribution system. It was established that the configuration of the installed re-acceleration system can be optimised to reduce the possibility of plant outages as a result of voltage fluctuations. It was found that the use of more detailed induction machine models provide valuable insight into system behaviour and is justified if accurate motor parameters are available or can be estimated. The simplified plant model yielded useful results and enabled the identification of incorrect system data. The investigation showed that Matlab is suitable for the rapid development of a basic transient simulation program that can be used to study the behaviour of different interconnected dynamic machine models.

Die voordele van die gebruik van 'n fase-veranderlike induksiemotor model eerder as die eenvoudiger d-q modelle wat normaalweg gebruik word is ondersoek. 'n Vereenvoudigde model van die aanleg se elektriese distribusiestelsel is afgelei. Faseveranderlike en d-q induksiemotor modelle is geimplementeer sowel as 'n sinkroongenerator model. Praktiese oorwegings het die gebruik van kommersiële programmatuur vir die simulasie van oorgangstoestande verhoed en 'n basiese program is in Matlab ontwikkel om die gedrag dinamiese masjienmodelle en die distribusiestelsel te evalueer. Daar is vasgestel dat die konfigurasie van die geinstalleerde herversnellerstelsel geoptimeer kan word om die moontlikheid van aanleg onderbrekings as gevolg van spanningsfluktuasies te verminder. Daar is gevind dat die gebruik van meer gedetaileerde induksiemasjien modelle waardevolle insig in die gedrag van die stelsel lewer en geregverdig is indien akkurate motorparameters beskikbaar is of afgeskat kan word. Die vereenvoudigde model van die aanleg het bruikbare resultate gelewer en die het die identifikasie van foutiewe stelseldata moontlik gemaak. Die ondersoek het getoon dat Matlab geskik is vir die snelle ontwikkeling van 'n basiese oorgangsimulasie program wat gebruik kan word om die gedrag van verskillende gekoppelde dinamiese masjienemodelle te bestudeer.

Abstract:
The simple gas turbine engine Operates on the basic Joule-Brayton cycle and it is notorious for its poor thermal efficiency. Several modifications have been made to the simple cycle in order to increase its thermal efficiency but, within the thermal and mechanical stress constrains, the efficiency still ranges between 28 and 35%. However, higher values of energy utilisation efficiency have been claimed in recent years by using low grade heat from the engine exhaust either for district heating or for raising low pressure steam for chemical processes. Both applications are not very attractive in hot countries. The concept of using the low grade thermal energy from the gas turbine exhaust to raise steam in order to drive a steam turbine and generate additional electricity, i. e. the combined power and power or CPP plant would be more attractive in hot countries than the CHP plant. It was hypothesized that the operational parameters, hence the performance of the CPP plant, would depend on the allowable gas turbine entry temperature. Hence, the exhaust gas temperature could not be decided arbitrarily. This thesis deals with the performance of the gas turbine engine operating as a part of the combined power and power plant. In a CPP plant, the gas turbine does not only produce power but also the thermal energy that is required to operate the steam turbine plant at achievable thermal efficiency. The combined gas turbine-steam turbine cycles are thermodynamically analysed. A parametric study for different configurations of the combined gas-steam cycles has been carried out to show the influence of the main parameters on the CPP cycle performance. The parametric study was carried out using realistic values in view of the known constraints and taking into account any feasible future developments. The results of the parametric study show that the maximum CPP cycle efficiency would be at a point for which the gas turbine cycle would have neither its maximum efficiency nor its maximum specific work output. It has been shown that supplementary heating or gas turbine reheating would decrease the CPP cycle efficiency; hence, it could only be justified at low gas turbine inlet temperatures. Also it has been shown that although gas turbine intercooling would enhance the performance of the gas turbine cycle, it would have only a slight effect on the CPP cycle performance. A graphical method for studying operational compatibility, i.e. matching, between gas turbine components has been developed for a steady state or equilibrium operation. The author would like to submit that the graphical method offers a novel and easy to understand approach to the complex problem of component matching. It has been shown that matching conditions between the compressor and the turbine could be satisfied by superimposing the turbine performance characteristics on the compressor performance characteristics providing the axes of both were normalised. This technique can serve as a valuable tool to determine the operating range and the engine running line. Furthermore, it would decide whether the gas turbine engine was operating in a region of adequate compressor and turbine efficiencies. A computer program capable of simulating the steady state off-design conditions of the gas turbine engine as part of the CPP plant has been developed. The program was written in Visual Basic. Also, another program was developed to simulate the steady state off-design operation of the steam turbine power plant. A combination of both programs was used to simulate the combined power plant. Finally, it could be claimed that the computer simulation of the CPP plant makes significant contribution to the design of thermal power plants as it would help in investigating the effects of the performance characteristics of the components on the performance of complete engines at the design and off-design conditions. This investigation of the CPP plant performance can be carried out at the design and engineering stages and thus help to reduce the cost of manufacturing and testing the expensive prototype engines.

Abstract:
In this work, the potential of intelligent algorithms for optimizing the real power loss and enhancing the grid connection power factor in a real hydrocarbon facility electrical system is assessed. Namely, genetic algorithm (GA), improve strength Pareto evolutionary algorithm (SPEA2) and differential evolutionary algorithm (DEA) are developed and implemented. The economic impact associated with these objectives optimization is highlighted. The optimization of the subject objectives is addressed as single and multi-objective constrained nonlinear problems. Different generation modes and system injected reactive power cases are evaluated. The studied electrical system constraints and parameters are all real values. The uniqueness of this thesis is that none of the previous literature studies addressed the technical and economic impacts of optimizing the aforementioned objectives for real hydrocarbon facility electrical system. All the economic analyses in this thesis are performed based on real subsidized cost of energy for the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The obtained results demonstrate the high potential of optimizing the studied system objectives and enhancing the economics of the utilized generation fuel via the application of intelligent algorithms.

Abstract:
The current electricity crisis, coupled with the lack of generation, has led to a major focus on continuity of supply. The Western Cape has been severely affected, as it only has a limited number of generation sources, namely Koeberg Nuclear Power Station (base supply) along with other power stations used for peak load running such as Ankerlig, Palmiet, etc. Koeberg Nuclear Power Station is located at the end of a long transmission line with no other base-load generation for 1500km, between the power station and the mass pool of coal-fired generation in Mpumalanga. Koeberg Nuclear Power Station (herein referred to as "Koeberg") plays a significant role in ensuring the stability of the Western Cape's electricity network. Without this power stattion, the network power flow is greatly affected, and is placed under severe strain. Koeberg is the determining factor when the system operators control the Western Cape network. The network is modelled having one of Koeberg's unit offline, using contingency analysis N-1. The one Koeberg unit being the N-1 contingency factored into the transmission network. The network should be able to withstand a disturbance with one Koeberg unit out of service and maintain stability after the disturbance. With the Eskom's decision to increase Koeberg power plant's electrical output power, it became apparent that the impact of this upgrade needed to be assessed. In the past, various hand calculations and assumptions were made before implementation of these types of changes could occur. With the advent of technology, modern computer-based software simulation tools have reduced the time to analyse such changes and aid engineers to quickly assess the impact it would have on various components. A load flow and short circuit studies of the Koeberg internal networks were performed and verified against plant data. The original data was compared to simulated data using a computer-based simulation package. The simulation software package used to validate the results is the DIgSILENT software package. This is one of the standard software packages used by Eskom to validate models on the network. Load flow studies for Koeberg have been completed in the past, but many changes have since been made to the plant. There was thus a requirement to re-calculate the original load flow studies and ensure that all plant and protection settings are within an acceptable criterion. This new study found that there were minor errors in the on-site documentation and that the software is compatible with the plant data.

Abstract:
This thesis studies the problem of periodic. waveform distortion in electric power systems. A general framework is formulated in the Hilbert domain to account for any given orthogonal basis such as complex Fourier. real Fourier. Hartley and Walsh.· Particular applications of this generalised framework result in unified frames of reference. These domains are unified frameworks in the sense that they accommodate all the nodes. phases and the full spectrum of coefficients of the orthogonal basis. Linear and linearised, non-linear elements can be combined in the same frame of reference for a unified solution. In rigorous waveform distortion analysis. accurate representation of non-linear characteristics for all power plant components is essential. In this thesis several analytical forms are studied which provide accurate representations of non-linearities and which are suitable for efficient. repetitive waveform distortion studies. Several harmonic domain approaches are also presented. To date most frequency domain techniques in power systems have used the Complex Fourier expansion but more efficient solutions can be obtained when using formulations which do not require complex algebra. With this in mind. two real harmonic domain frames of references are presented: the real Fourier harmonic domain and the Hartley domain. The solutions exhibit quadratic rate of convergence. Also, discrete convolutions are proposed as a means for free-aliasing harmonic domain evaluations; a fact which aids convergence greatly. Two new models in the harmonic domain are presented: the Three Phase Thyristor Controlled Reactor model and the Multi-limb Three Phase Transformer model. The former uses switching functions and discrete convolutions. It yields efficient solutions with strong characteristics of convergence. The latter is based on the principle of duality and takes account of the non-linear electromagnetic effects involving iron core, transformer tank and return air paths. The algorithm exhibits quadratic convergence. Real data is used to validate both models. Harmonic distortion can be evaluated by using true Newton-Raphson techniques which exhibit quadratic convergence. However, these methods can be made to produce faster solutions by using relaxation techniques. Several alternative relaxation techniques are presented. An algorithm which uses diagonal relaxation has shown good characteristics of convergence plus the possibility of parallelisation. The Walsh series are a set of orthogonal functions with rectangular waveforms. They are used in this thesis to study switching circuits which are quite common in modern power systems. They have switching functions which resemble Walsh functions substantially. Accordingly, switching functions may be represented exactly by a finite number of Walsh functions, whilst a large number of Fourier coefficients may be required to achieve the same result. Evaluation of waveform distortion of power networks is a non-linear problem which is solved by linearisation about an operation point. In this thesis the Walsh domain is used to study this phenomenon. It has deep theoretical strengths which helps greatly in understanding waveform distortion and which allows its qualitative assessment. Traditionally, the problem of finding waveform distortion levels in power networks has been solved by the use of repetitive linearisation of the problem about an operation point. In this thesis a step towards a true non-linear solution is made. A new approach, which uses bi-linearisations as opposed to linearisations, is presented. Bi-linear systems are a class of simple, non-linear systems which are amenable to analytical solutions. Also, a new method, based on Taylor series expansions, is used to approximate generic, non-linear systems using a bi-linear system. It is shown that when using repetitive bi-linearisations, as opposed to linearisations, solutions show super-quadratic rate of convergence. Finally, several power system applications using the Walsh approach are presented. A model of a single phase TCR, a model of three phase bank of transformers and a model of frequency dependent transmission lines are developed.

Abstract:
The traditional electric power load analysis (EPLA) uses a very basic routine of assigning demand factors to each connected electric load, then summing these to arrive at an estimated power plant load. This method is overly simplistic, gives a false sense of certainty, and does not accurately reflect vessel operations. This paper will describe an alternative to traditional methods of determining ratings and configurations for electric power plants during vessel concept and preliminary design. This method uses statistical methods to calculate a range of possible power plant demand. Resulting data can be used to evaluate power plant configurations with respect to design risk, vessel operating profiles, and potential limitations. The ability to better evaluate the complete range of required electric power across all operating profiles increases in importance as vessel power plants become more sophisticated with the introduction of variable speed generation, battery/hybrid power systems, DC power distribution, and distributed load centers.

Abstract:
Tucson Electric Power Company (TEP) currently has nearly 5.0 MWdc of utility-scale grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems that have been installed in its service territory since 2000. Most of this installed PV capacity is in support of the Arizona Corporation Commission Environmental Portfolio Standard (EPS) goal that encourages TEP to generate 1.1% of its energy generation through renewable resources by 2007, with 60% of that amount from photovoltaics. The EPS program provides for multi-year, pay-as-you-go development of renewable energy, with kWhac energy production as a key program measurement. A total of 26 crystalline silicon collector systems, each rated at 135 kWdc, have been installed at the Springerville, AZ generating plant by TEP making this one of the largest PV plants in the world. These systems were installed in a standardized, cookie-cutter approach whereby each uses the same array field design, mounting hardware, electrical interconnection, and inverter unit. This approach has allowed TEP to achieve a total installed system cost of $5.40/Wdc and a TEP-calculated levelized energy cost of $0.10/kWhac for PV electrical generation. During this time, much has been learned regarding performance, cost, maintenance, installation and design. This paper presents an assessment of these topics and a perspective associated with this PV experience.

Abstract:
The economics of high voltage direct current for long-distance transmission of electrical energy have been reported as very attractive, to the extent that several projects are in the making. Several reasons other than the savings in transmission costs, for example the exchange of peak power between time zones and seasonal zones, would permit utilities to save on plant investment for generating capacity while maintaining a high level of service. This report summarizes work on the initial phase of a study to determine the effects of high-voltage direct-current (H.V.D.C.) electric transmission lines on buried pipeline systems. Pipeline Research Council International, Inc. initiated this work in response to an anticipated threat posed by the Pacific Northwest-Southwest Intertie H.V.D.C. system now being designed (and other possible H.V.D.C. lines in the future) because of the announced plans to pass direct current through the earth. The objectives of the overall program are:(1) To determine the nature and magnitude of problems that will be created by the earth current from H.V.D.C. systems, and(2) To devise means of protecting pipelines from the effects of such currents. A computer program was written based on a mathematical model of a buried pipeline in the environment created by an H.V.D.C. system. Excellent agreement was obtained between computed soil potential gradients and measurements obtained during a field test of H.V.D.C. in Oregon. Reasonably good agreement was also obtained between measured pipe-to-soil potentials on the Pacific Lighting Gas Supply Company pipeline near Camino, California, and computed values during a field test of H.V.D.C. power transmission.
