4. OVERCURRENT RELAY COORDINATION IN DISTRIBUTED
GENERATION WITH FAULT CURRENT LIMITER

ABSTRACT
The distribution network has many advantages when it is connected to distributed generation
(DG). Some problems in coordination of protection devices will occur in the presence of DG,
due to change in short circuit level at different points. Fault current limiter (FCL) is applying
limit to the fault current levels and the effect of DGs on coordination of overcurrent (O/C) relay
during the faults. In distribution network the use of FCL & DG causes some transient current
during fault condition. In such network steady state coordination method do not result
inaccurately. In this method we use fault current limiter for reducing the transient fault current
in the network. The method gives feasible and effective solutions for optimal coordination in
the practical power system networks in comparison to the previous steady state methods when
simulations are carried out on a sample network and the results are demonstrated.

ABSTRACT
The development of a country is dependent on the per person energy consumption rate,
which is very low in Bangladesh. Bangladesh installed a capacity of 10416 MW electricity on
June 2014 and three fourth of which is considered to be accessible. Near about 45% people has
no access to electricity. Therefore, electricity shortage is an acute crisis in Bangladesh.As
Saint Martin Island is far away from the main land, it is almost impossible and cost ineffective
to supply electricity from the national grid. For connection of nearly 6000 peoples of Saint
Martin to the main stream of development and to make this island more attractive to the tourists,
it is very essential to provide electricity for them. Power generation by combining solar, wind
and diesel, known as hybrid system can be the most efficient technique for the electrification
of these types of Island. Based on this principle, in this paper a hybrid system is designed for
electrification of Saint Martin’s Island. In the analysis, realistic data is used for load calculation
and optimization analysis for most effective solution. Hybrid Optimization Model for Electric
Renewable (HOMER) software is used to find out the final optimization and sensitive analysis
of hybrid system. This system satisfies the load demand and reduces carbon emission which
will help to generate green energy.

ABSTRACT
Nowadays, renewable energy resources play an important role in replacing conventional energy
resources. Photovoltaic energy is considered to be promising renewable energy resources
which grew rapidly in the past few years. The primary objective of this paper is to facilitate the
increasing penetration levels of PV systems in the electric distribution networks. The PV
electrical model is presented and implemented on MATLAB to simulate the non- linear
characteristics I-V and P-V curves. In addition, the reliability evaluation of distribution
networks, including distributed generators of solar photovoltaic (PV) with varying of output
power capacity is also presented. The Monte Carlo simulation algorithm is applied to test the
distribution famous networks RBTS Bus 2 as well as substation 7029 located near Riyadh city.
The two distribution networks have been modified to include the PV’s of distributed generators.
The distributed generators contribute to supply a part of the load during normal mode and
supply the entire load during component failure or failure of grid operation supply. The PV
stochastic models have been used to simulate the randomness of these resources. The study
shows that the implementation and integration of renewable resources as distributed
generations have noticeably improved the reliability and service continuity of the distribution
networks.

ABSTRACT
Energy is one of the most important factors for a developing country like Bangladesh. Like the
rest of the countries of the world, the demand for energy is increasing day by day in our country.
Energy sector of Bangladesh is exceedingly depended on the limited gas reserve. Given the
rising demand for fuel it will be very difficult t to meat this demand with only indigenous
natural gas. About 80% of the power generation in the country is now gas based. Therefore
diversification of fuel has become indispensible it has been envision 2021 that 53%of the power
generation will be coal based by year 2021. The worldwide scenario shows that, Coal is the
ultimate fuel for future. The paper gives an overview of the current state of coal scenario and
natural gas scenario in Bangladesh. Here we discuss the principles of coal to syngas conversion
technology and aside from a brief introduction to 5 process methods for conversion of coal to
Synthesis Natural Gas (SNG). The Steam-Oxygen Gasification, Hydrogasification, Catalytic
Steam Gasification, Underground Steam-Oxygen Gasification, Underground
Hydrogasification processes are discussed with the help of process flow diagram. This paper
also summaries the present scenario of Syngas production worldwide. Finally we propose a
coal based syngas infrastructure, where coal is converted to syngas, thenprocessed to make
Synthesis Natural Gas (SNG), then it transmitted via dedicated pipeline or injected into existing
natural gas pipeline to the different types of user like Household, Thermal Power Plant, Brick
Field, Ceramics & Glass Industry and any kind of thermal process industry. This proposed
technology is design to reduce the dependency on natural gas.

Murdoch University, Western Australia
ABSTRACT
In this paper the use of artificial neural network in power system stability is studied. A
predictive controller based on two neural networks is designed and tested on a single machine
infinite bus system which is used to replace conventional power system stabilizers. They have
been used for decades in power system to dampen small amplitude low frequency oscillation
in power systems. The increases in size and complexity of power systems have cast a shadow
on efficiency of conventional method. New control strategies have been proposed in many
researches. Artificial Neural Networks have been studied in many publications but lack of
assurance of their functionality has hindered the practical usage of them in utilities. The
proposed control structure is modelled using a novel data exchange established between
MATLAB and DIgSILENT power factory. The result of simulation proves the efficiency of
the proposed structure.

ABSTRACT
Coupling among interconnects and PCB traces is a major limiting factor of signal quality in
high speed digital system. This paper evaluates a possible way of far-end coupling reduction
in a special geometry of traces. In this work, via stitch guard is constructed between the non-
parallel microstrip lines to control the coupling. In a practical high speed printed circuit board,
coupling between non-parallel traces is common. The effects of via stitch guard for alleviating
the coupling are investigated. The coupling is controlled by adjusting the inclination of any one
of the line. The results are compared with conventional traces. Some design guidelines for
proper inclination angle of line for reducing the far-end coupling are concluded.

ABSTRACT
The renewable generation is one of the fast growing power system .Whereas the world is facing
the challenge of effectively exploiting and utilizing renewable energy resources, not only to
meet the increasing energy demand, but also to preserve and to reduce the depletionof fossil
fuels and to lessen the amount of CO2 emissions in our atmosphere .The national energy
generation resources of every country plays an important role in the development. Theenergy
transition is well underway in most European countries. It has a growing impact on electric
power systems as it dramatically modifies the way electricity is produced. In this paper, our
focus is to perform a systematic review of hydropower resource potential around the Globe. In
this study we will address three research queries: 1) what is the existing statusof hydropower
resource potential around the globe? 2) What kind of methodologies frameworks and
approaches are used for exploiting and utilizing renewable energy resources
3) What are the limitations of exploiting renewable resource potentials. The purpose of the
study is to highlight the current research issues, to provide valid solutions to these issues and
to find out the limitations of existing work in this area of hydropower resource potential. This
will be done by performing quantitative literature analysis of different databases and all the
results will be gathered by analysing the statistical data using “SPSS”. Remedial techniques for
handling the limitation of usability engineering management will be planned in future.

ABSTRACT
A base-4 leading zero detector (LZD) design is proposed in this paper. The design is similar
to the approach originally proposed by V.G. Oklobdzija with a different technique. The circuit
modules used in the base-4 LZD approach are designed and several N-bit LZD circuitsare
implemented with a standard cell realization in the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing
Company (TSMC) 0.65um CMOS process. The performance and layout area of the base-4
LZD realization is compared for implementations that contain only 4-to-1 and 2-to-1
multiplexers.
