Normal random number generator

Description:
This device produce periodically a number randomly with a normal law. To generate it, it uses the Box-Muller methods. To generate the necessary uniform distributions, it uses the park and Miller metho... see mored.

seed: The seed represents the seed of the generator. A same seed will produce the same set of number.

Ts: At each time step of Ts, the random number generator will compute another random number.

variance: The variance represents the law variance.

Modular Multilevel Matrix Converter for Low-Frequency AC Transmission – modeling and Simulation in EMTP

Description:
Authors: Rafael Castillo-Sierra and Giri Venkataramanan
The transmission of power with AC faces limitations both to the stable operation of the electrical system and to the physical properties of... see more the transmission lines. Therefore, alternatives are being sought to mitigate these problems without the need to build new lines or replace existing ones with new, more powerful ones. In this context, a proven method makes it possible to overcome these problems by reducing the frequency at which power is transmitted. This method is known as Low Frequency AC Transmission (LFAC). In this sense, the model presented in this Research Contribution Prize Program EMTP® 2021 shows the implementation of a low-frequency transmission line in a small power system. The model presented shows a new block in EMTP of the AC/AC converter used, the Modular Multilevel Matrix Converter (MMMC) and the controls necessary for its operation. Time domain studies show that the technology is feasible and has the potential to improve the controllability and stability of transmission systems.

INDUCED VOLTAGES AND CURRENTS: OVERVIEW AND EVALUATION OF SIMULATION MODELS AND METHODOLOGIES

Description:
In this paper induced voltages and currents caused by underground cables are calculated in cable sheaths and nearby metallic pipelines. The performance of several simulation methods and models are inv... see moreestigated in steady-state, considering also different implementations in ATP-EMTP, EMTP-RV and PSCAD/EMTDC. The analysis is extended in the simulation of transient overvoltages in cable systems, evaluating the accuracy of two widely used simulation models. The influence of different parameters is investigated, among them specifically the earth properties. Results reveal that implementing accurate earth representations, earth conduction effects have a significant impact on induced voltages at the power frequency, while for high frequency phenomena the influence is minor.
