A three-phase system uses three sinusoidal voltages that are 120 degrees out of phase to provide constant power output. A balanced three-phase system can be analyzed using a single-phase equivalent circuit. Power in a three-phase system is measured using three wattmeters connected in a Y configuration for a Y-connected load or two wattmeters connected between line voltages for a three-wire system. The total power is the sum of the wattmeter readings.

Hybrid optimization of pumped hydro system and solar- Engr. Abdul-Azeez.pdffxintegritypublishin
Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas.

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

1. Three-phase systems
1. Introduction
Three-phase systems are commonly used in generation, transmission and distribution of
electric power. Power in a three-phase system is constant rather than pulsating and three-phase
motors start and run much better than single-phase motors. A three-phase system is a
generator-load pair in which the generator produces three sinusoidal voltages of equal
amplitude and frequency but differing in phase by 120° from each other.
The phase voltages va(t), vb(t) and vc(t) are as follows

Setting the above result into (4), we obtain

Since the current flowing though the fourth wire is zero, the wire can be removed (see
Fig.2)
Fig. 2
The system of connecting the voltage sources and the load branches, as depicted in Fig. 2, is
called the Y system or the star system. Point n is called the neutral point of the generator and
point n’ is called the neutral point of the load.
Each branch of the generator or load is called a phase. The wires connecting the supply to
the load are called the lines. In the Y-system shown in Fig. 2 each line current is equal to the
corresponding phase current, whereas the line-to-line voltages ( or simply line voltages ) are
not equal to the phase voltages.

Now we consider the Y-connected generator sources ( see Fig. 3).

5. 3. Three-phase systems calculations
When the three phases of the load are not identical, an unbalanced system is produced. An
unbalanced Y-connected system is shown in Fig.1. The system of Fig.1 contains perfectly
conducting wires connecting the source to the load. Now we consider a more realistic case
where the wires are represented by impedances Zp and the neutral wire connecting n and n’ is
represented by impedance Zn ( see Fig.6).

Using the node n as the datum, we express the currents Ia, Ib, Ic and In in terms of the node

( iii ) Find the phase and line voltages using Kirchhoff’s and Ohm’s laws.
When the neutral wire is removed, the system contains three connecting wires and is called
a three-wire system. In such a case we set Zn →∞ into (15)

Hence, we need to calculate Ia only using (18), which can be made applying the one-phase
circuit described by equation (18) shown in Fig.7.

This means that the analysis of a balanced three-phase system can be reduced to the analysis of
one-phase system depicted in Fig.7.

7. Let us consider three-phase system shown in Fig.8. The system is supplied with a balanced
three-phase generator, whereas the load is unbalanced.
The effective value of the generator phase voltage is 220V, the impedance of any connecting
wire is ( )Z jp = +2 2 Ω and the phase impedances of the load are ( )Ω+= 4j2Za ,
( )Ω−= 2j4Zb , ( )Ω+= 4j2Zc . We wish to determine the line currents.

8. 4 Power in three-phase circuits
In the balanced systems, the average power consumed by each load branch is the same and
given by
φ= cosIVP
~
effeffav (21)
where Veff is the effective value of the phase voltage, Ieff is the effective value of the phase
current and φ is the angle of the impedance. The total average power consumed by the load is
the sum of those consumed by each branch, hence, we have
φ== cosIV3P
~
3P effeffavav (22)
In the balanced Y systems, the phase current has the same amplitude as the line current
( )Leffeff II = , whereas the line voltage has the effective value ( )LeffV which is 3 times
greater than the effective value of the phase voltage, ( ) effLeff V3V = . Hence, using (22), we
obtain
( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) φ=φ= cosIV3cosI

Similarly, we derive

In the unbalanced systems, we add the powers of each phase

In order to measure the average power in a three-phase Y-connected load, we use three
wattmeters connected as shown in Fig.9.
The reading of the wattmeter W1 is

Similarly, W2 and W3 measure the average power of the load branch b and c, respectively.
Thus, the sum of the three readings will give the total average power. This method of the
average power measurement is valid for both balanced and unbalanced Y-connected loads.
Note that in the case of a balanced Y-connected load all three readings are identical and
therefore we use only one wattmeter.
For measuring average power in a three-phase three-wire system, we can use a method
exploiting two wattmeters. In this method two wattmeters are connected by choosing any one
line as the common reference for the voltage coils of the wattmeters. The current coils are
connected in series with the other two lines ( see Fig.10) and the asterisk terminals of each
wattmeter are short-circuited ( see Fig.10).
