A new joint sliding-window ESPRIT and DFT scheme for waveform distortion assessment in power systems
No full textThis paper proposes a novel scheme that jointly employs a sliding-window ESPRIT and DFT for estimating harmonic and interharmonic components in power system disturbance data. In the proposed scheme, separate stages are utilized to estimate the voltage fundamental component, harmonics and interharmonics. This includes the estimation of the fundamental component from lowpass filtered data using a sliding-window ESPRIT, of harmonics from a sliding-window DFT with a synchronized window, and of interharmonics from the residuals by applying the sliding-window ESPRIT. Main advantages of the approach include high resolution and accuracy in parameter estimation and significantly reduced computational cost. Experiments and comparisons are made on both synthetic and measurement data. Results have shown the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed scheme

The influence of motor re-acceleration on voltage sags
No full textThe assumption that a voltage sag is rectangular is not correct in a power system with large induction motor loads. The motors decelerate during the short circuit. After fault-clearing, they will accelerate again, drawing a high reactive current from the supply, causing a prolonged postfault voltage sag. This is aggravated by the removal of branches by the protection. The resulting shape of some voltage sags in an example power system is shown and discussed. For the example power system, a stochastic voltage sag table is determined. This table gives the expected number of sags of different depth and duration. The influence of faster protection and of reduced transformer impedance on the table is presented. A simple motor model is implemented in a method for including interruptions due to voltage sags in the reliability analysis of power systems. This model is presented briefly and used to show the influence of motor parameters on the number of sags that lead to an interruption of plant operatio
