POWERGRID experience with EMTP793

Abstract
To meet the increasing power demand, a number of extra high voltage (EHV) transmission lines is being added to the power system network, which enhances the complexity of power system network. It is es... see moresential duty of power engineer to fulfill the growing demand ensuring the reliability, stability & security of GRID. Transient simulation tools like EMTP play a vital role to provide the flexibility to power engineer for simulating/studying the various case scenarios which couldn’t be simulate in physical power system.


Such tools eventually help power engineer to build a sustainable and secure GRID. In POWERGRID, being a central transmission utility, various studies are being carried out to arrive the technical particular of new transmission system and optimize or fine tuning of existing system. Some of them i.e. Transient Recovery Voltage (TRV) study of 1200kV Transmission network, Smart Power from insulated earth wire of EHV transmission line and 1200kV Transformer Inrush current study are discussed in presentation. 1200kV National Test Station was established & successfully charged along with the transmission line in state of BINA in India.


TRV study was carried out for assessment of various test duties of 1200kV Circuit Breaker. Presentation cover the detailed discussion of 1200kV TRV study and a brief about the facilities like HIL, HVDC control Replica setup, STATCOM replica setup available at Powergrid Advanced Research and Technology Centre (PARTeC).

STATCOM Integration into a DFIG-based Wind Park and its impact on WP HVRT capability753

Abstract
<p>This presentation presents a research on static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) integration into a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) based wind park (WP) in order to fulfill the... see more grid code requirement for power factor control. The STATCOM impact on the WP high voltage ride-through (HVRT) capability is also analysed.</p><p>The WP HVRT capability is assessed by analyzing the responses to a parametric voltage waveform. The external system is represented by a Thevenin equivalent. The pre-described voltage waveforms are applied to the Thevenin source in order to assess the conformity of the HVRT capability to Hydro-Quebec specifications. An actual WP is considered where the simulation model includes all details regarding collector grid and overvoltage protection. The simulations consider various wind turbine (WT) and medium voltage (MV) feeder outage scenarios as well as STATCOM usage for reactive power compensation. A transient function is also proposed for the STATCOM to improve the WP HVRT capability. The simulation results demonstrate that, STATCOM usage provides a noticeable improvement in HVRT capability of the WP, especially with the proposed transient function.</p>
