Mathematical Simulation of the Transformer Differential Protection, Based on the Time-Impulse Principle

Abstract

Abstract. The modern electric power systems (EPS) are large, multiparameter, stiff, non-linear and dynamic systems. Control and protection of such systems are extremely complex and urgent tasks. It is confirmed by the statistic of accidents in EPS: about 25 % of severe accidents are caused by wrong actions of relay protection (RP) and automation of EPS. The 30 % of these incorrect actions are caused by inadequate setting. The goal of this work is to solve the problem of RPs setting through the usage of detailed models that take into account specific features of the RPs and processes in transducers. The paper focused on the solution of the problem for the transformer differential protection (TDP), based on the impulsetime principle -DZT-21/DZT-23. The presented research results confirm the effectiveness of the usage of the appropriate mathematical models for the problem solution. The presented fragments are a part of a single project aimed at the problem' solution for all the RPs devices.

Approach in the modeling of wind turbines for power system stability studies and evaluation of their impact on electric power systems

“…Hardware and software simulation tools appropriate for modeling failing with this problem in virtue of the limited mathematical calculations, and the impossibility of solving large systems of differential equations describing processes in EPS. Moreover, when solving the systems of differential equations by numerical methods, the computational error accumulates, which reduces the reliability of the simulation results [4][5][6]. Various scientific community and research laboratories when modeling large wind parks are necessity to apply certain limitations and assumptions, applying equivalent models in calculations.…”

The selection of interval boundaries of input and output data method for obtaining complete probabilistic characteristics

“…The electric power industry, as well as many others, frequently requires the assessment of risks of overvoltage [3,9], accidental losses and destruction caused either by real values exceeding standard operating limits or by reduction of service life parameters relative to regulations [4]. This requires the knowledge of total probabilistic characteristics of the parameters of interest in the form of laws of probability.…”

Research of the surge voltage protection by means of Hybrid Real-Time Power System Simulator

“…A voltage boost (for example, at the stator winding terminals) can lead to insulation failure and damage in the windings of the generator or transformer of the generator-transformer unit [1]. Dangerous voltage boost for the windings insulation result from the disappearance of the magnetic flux in the stator and a generator speed increase, which occurs when generation shedding is.…”
