Short circuit study determines fault currents in a power system under different fault conditions. When a fault occurs, large currents flow which can damage equipment unless the faulty section is isolated quickly. Relays and circuit breakers are used for this isolation. The study calculates fault currents for different fault types and locations, and the results are used to set relay and circuit breaker ratings for protection. Bus impedance matrix building is an iterative algorithm that constructs the matrix by adding network elements one by one using impedance parameters, avoiding direct inversion of the large admittance matrix which requires extensive computation.

This document discusses power factor improvement. It begins by defining power factor as the cosine of the angle between the voltage and current in an AC circuit. Power factor can be lagging if the current lags the voltage in an inductive circuit, or leading if the current leads the voltage in a capacitive circuit. Low power factor is undesirable as it results in higher equipment ratings, conductor sizes, copper losses and poorer voltage regulation. Power factor can be improved by adding capacitors in parallel with inductive loads to provide a leading reactive current. This reduces the phase angle between voltage and current, increasing the power factor. Other methods of power factor improvement include using synchronous condensers and phase advancers. Improving power factor is important for both
Performance Evaluation of Synchronous Generator under Sudden Loss of Excitationpaperpublications3
Abstract: Synchronous generators under sudden loss of excitation behave as an induction generator, supplying active power to the system and absorbing reactive power from the system. In general the armature current exceeds its rated value. Hence, the reference power is reduced in steps to keep the armature currents within limits. The voltage profile around the faulty machine becomes unacceptably poor and in addition there is exchange of pulsating power with the system. Hence, the general practice is to switch off the machine by the action of an offset type MHO-relay. Recently, the capacitive VAR-generation of a H.T. system has gone up due to addition of EHV/SHV lines, such that there is no or little problem in supplying the faulty machine with its required VAR. Also, the magnetizing current drawn by modern turbo generators has reduced much due to the use of smaller air-gaps for economic design of the rotor. The combined effect has been assessed, and it has been found that it is permissible to run the machine for a relatively long duration under LOE without staking on its health. It may be allowed to run the machine for 30-60 minutes under LOE, within which time the fault may be detected and removed and the machine resynchronized. However, this is not possible for hydro-generators drawing large magnetizing currents.
IRJET- Series and Shunt Compensation in UPFC using Cascaded Multilevel Invert...IRJET Journal
This document discusses a transformer-less approach for series and shunt compensation using a cascaded multilevel inverter. The key points are:
1) A cascaded multilevel inverter arrangement with H-bridge cells is used for reactive power compensation without using a transformer between the series and shunt converters. This eliminates issues associated with using transformers such as cost, size, losses and response time.
2) The series converter controls voltage to regulate active and reactive power flow while the shunt converter controls current to compensate for any active power flow between the converters. This ensures no active power is exchanged so no transformer is needed.
3) Control methods for the shunt voltage and series current compensation use PI controllers

On line nonlinearity compensation technique for pwm inverter drivesIAEME Publication
This document summarizes an online nonlinearity compensation technique for PWM inverter drives. Inverter nonlinearity arises from voltage distortions due to dead time, voltage drop across switches, and turn on/off delays. This nonlinearity deteriorates drive performance and causes torque ripple. The proposed method uses trapezoidal voltage compensation based on average value theory with voltage drop compensation. A compensation voltage is added to the reference voltage to account for inverter nonlinearity. The technique is validated through simulation of an induction machine drive. Adjusting the trapezoidal compensation voltage angle can modulate low-order harmonics to adapt to varying operating conditions.

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
Advanced control scheme of doubly fed induction generator for wind turbine us...IJECEIAES
This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

DEFINITAION:
Percentage impedance of a transformer is the percentage of rated voltage applied at one
side (primary winding) to circulate rated current on transformer keeping its other side
(secondary winding) under short circuit conditions. It is marked on transformer
nameplate.
EXPLANATION:
If we apply rated voltage at primary winding of a transformer keeping its secondary
winding short circuited, then amount of current at both windings will be extremely
high as compared to the rated current. This current is called short circuit current and its
magnitude is very high due to zero impedance offered by the load (secondary winding
is short circuited).
Consider,
V : Rated Primary Voltage of Transformer
Z% : Percentage Impedance of Transformer
Irated : Rated Primary Current of Transformer
Zactual : Actual Impedance of Transformer (referred to primary winding)
Based on above explanation, we are applying a percentage (Z %) of rated primary
voltage. Therefore applied voltage is equal to V x Z% / 100. This voltage drives rated
current in transformer winding.
By Ohms Law:
Voltage = Current x Actual Impedance
V x Z% /100 = Irated x Zactual
Z% = Irated Zactual x 100 / V
Now, if we reduce the applied voltage on the
transformer primary i.e. we apply percentage of
rated voltage in transformer primary, current on
both windings will also reduce. At a particular
percentage of rated voltage, rated current will flow
on transformer windings. This percentage of rated
voltage at one side of transformer which circulates
rated current on transformer windings keeping its
other side winding short circuited, is called
percentage impedance of transformer.

ROLE OF Z% IN SHORT CIRCUIT CALCULATION
Percentage impedance of transformer plays extremely vital role is network calculation
i.e. short circuit calculation and voltage drop calculation.
We can find the short circuit contribution of a transformer as per below explanation:
As considered above, secondary winding of transformer is short circuited.
Now,
If Voltage (V Z% /100) is applied on Transformer Primary, Rated Current (Irated) flows.
If Voltage (V) is applied on Transformer Primary, Current (Irated x 100 / Z%) will flow.
Therefore, when we apply rated voltage at primary winding of a transformer whose
secondary winding is short circuited, short circuit current (Irated x 100 / Z%) will flow on
transformer windings. Value of Z% is same for both windings as it is percentage of
rated voltage. However value of Irated will be different for primary and secondary
winding. Accordingly value of short circuit current will also be different for primary
and secondary windings.
Short Circuit Current (Isc) = Irated x 100 / Z%
If percentage impedance of a transformer is less, its short circuit current will be more
which will produce more stress in insulation. This is a negative factor. On the other
hand, if percentage impedance of a transformer is less, voltage drop on transformer
winding will be less which will facilitate better voltage regulation. This is a positive
factor. Therefore, percentage impedance of transformer has to be precisely selected to
maintain a proper balance between fault level and voltage regulation.
PERMITTED TOLERANCE IN Z%
Percentage impedance of transformer is specified at the time of ordering. But it must
be noted that IEC 76 permits +/- 10% tolerance in percentage impedance at
manufacturer's end. Therefore, if we order a transformer with 8% percentage
impedance, its actual percentage impedance after manufacturing may be any value
between 7.2% (-10% of 8) to 8.8% (+10% of 8), unless it is specifically agreed with
manufacturer at the time of ordering. Tolerance in percentage impedance must be
considered for power system calculations and accordingly system fault level & voltage
regulation must be finalized.

ROLE OF Z% IN PARALLEL OPERATION OF TRANSFORMERS
If the ratios of kVA rating to percent impedance of two transformers operating in
parallel are equal, they will share equal load. However if ratio is different, they will
share unequal load. This may result in overloading of one transformer.
In order to analyses this criterion; let us consider two transformers operating in parallel
as shown in below diagram.
I1 : Load current from transformer 1
I2 : Load current from transformer 2
IL : Total load current (IL = I1 + I2)
Z1 : Actual impedance of transformer 1
Z2 : Actual impedance of transformer 2
Z1% : Percentage Impedance of transformer 2
Z2% : Percentage Impedance of transformer 2
kVA1 : kVA rating of transformer 1
kVA2 : kVA rating of transformer 2
kVAL : Total load kVA
5. Ashish Kumar Ganguli

We know that
V x Z% / 100 = Irated Zactual
Therefore,
Z1 = (V x Z%1)/ (100 x I1)
Z2 = (V x Z%2)/ (100 x I2)
If we substitute value of actual impedance (Z1 & Z2) as per above equation, we get
If we multiply both sides with kV, we get
If ratio kVA1 / Z1% and kVA2 / Z2% are equal, then kVA1 and kVA2 will be same. That
means, both transformers will share equal load i.e. 50% of total load. This factor must
be analyzed before paralleling two transformers to avoid unequal load sharing and
overloading of one transformer.
