01.001 Processing and Load Forecasting of a Micro Grid Using GRNN Neural Network M. P. R. Carvalho and A. D. P. Lotufo Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Ilha Solteira, SP, Brasil

Knowing the load behavior in advance is very important for several tasks in electric power systems operation and planning mainly in smart grid environment. This work emphasizes the analysis and treatment of data coming from less aggregate levels of consumption, which present high variability due to the human behavior in consuming electrical energy. Therefore, the traditional prediction methods are not adequate to realize the demand forecasting. This way, artificial neural networks are used to realize the forecasting, in particular the GRNN (General Regression Neural Networks). The data come from a micro grid placed at PTI (Parque Tecnológico de Itaipu) obtained by intelligent meters each 15 minutes. This work tried to use the bottom up concept, a new paradigm in prediction, where the parts compose the total demand. As the data set contain many missing data, a moving average filter is applied as a preprocessing procedure to treat and recuperate not only the missing data as well as the noisy ones. The GRNN was chosen to the characteristics of generalizing and as it is based on probability density function, the chances to fall in local minima is not possible, besides this neural network converges in one iteration which is able to real time applications. The assertiveness of the predictions are measured by MAPE (mean absolute perceptual error) that is the most used metric to do this task, and the results are according to the literature with indices around 5% to 8% after the application of the moving average filter. Index Terms: Bottom up, GRNN, demand forecasting, smart grids, artificial neural network.

Electrical power systems with generation, transmission and distribution require studies and methods to predict the load with assurance. The innovation of intelligent cities is due to the intelligent systems that allow a modernization using technologies to improve the system besides being more reliable. Thus to assure that the electrical demand is enough and with quality, it is necessary to provide a very good prediction. The proposal of this work is to realize the short term global load forecasting using a precise and reliable technique with low computational costs. The technique used is the Euclidian ARTMAP neural network, which is based on Adaptive Resonance Theory, preserving the plasticity and stability characteristics. The advantage of this version (Euclidian ARTMAP) is that the input data normalization is not necessary, which represents a faster processing when compared to the traditional Fuzzy ARTMAP. Thus, it is adequate to realize short term load forecasting. The data used on the simulations are from a Brazilian electric system. The results are presented comparing the MAPE (mean average perceptual error). Conclusions consider that this tool is adequate for short term load forecasting. Index Terms: Short term load forecasting, euclidean distance, adaptive resonance theory, euclidean ARTMAP neural network. Book of Abstracts 24

The objective of this work is to analyze the private players within the energy integration in South America as a process. Through the gas sector as energy vector, the methodology l the countries located in South America, particularly that nations with natural gas activi- ty. Even if there are already gas trading among some coun- tries of the continent, example the Gasbol (bulk gas pipe- line across two countries like Bolivia e Brazil), the conti- nent keep being very attractive to companies that operate with this hydrocarbon through exploration projects, pro- duction, refining etc. Thus the analysis leads to consider the continent as is rich in energy sources, however, not equally distributed, thus the energy integration process is extremely important in order to keep enough energy sup- ply throw the countries of the continent. Proven, in some sense that the private actors are responsible in supporting the energy integration in South America, due to sharing technologies, planning and knowhow among the compa- nies that work as partnership in different countries. Any- way so to form a transboundary trading market of energy resources between the two or more nations, is extremely complex and cannot depend solely, of actions and initia- tives of the Governments of each country. Index Terms: South America, natural gas industry, corporate integration, energy transboundary manage- ment, hydrocarbon industry, Integrated Resource Planning (PIR).

02.001 Novel Topology Analysis of Synchronous and Induction Generators in Parallel Operation Mode in an Offshore Isolated Electric System V. Zimmermann Silva, Â. J. Junqueira Rezek and R. Di Lorenzo Corrêa Federal University of Itajubá (UNIFEI), MG, Brazil

This paper presents an analysis of a parallel connection of one synchronous generator and one self-excited induction generator, each coupled to its dc machine as well as a capacitor bank with three resistive load banks connected to the system. The circuit was complemented with a voltage control loop, speed control loop, and auto transformer installed in a primary machine armature circuit to vary the applied voltage over its armature circuit as an alternative method of speed control in addition to field flux variation. Using the auto transformer method it is possible to widen the speed and power limits from the induction generator what relieves so much the power supply from synchronous generators. A detailed analysis related to power balance between the two types of generators was conducted. The results enable comparison of the two methods of induction generator speed control, auto- transformer and field flux adjust. The first is more representative of actual conditions in the field, whereas generators in offshore platforms are driven by gas or oil turbines and have a large speed range. An analysis of comparing the power balance for both methods is presented as result for the cited isolated electric system. Index Terms: Induction generator, isolated electric system, generators in parallel, synchronous generator.

02.002 Proyecto Computacional para la Planeación de Sistemas de Transmisión en un Ambiente Centralizado V. H. Reséndiz E., F. Toledo T., R. Mota P. UAM-A - SEPI ESIME-IPN

This work describes the development of computational algorithms of mixed integer linear programming based on deterministic, indicative and economic criteria, this as support for the implementation of expansion planning for transmission systems. Three methodologies are compared: static, dynamic or multiperiod and contingency criterion (N-1). The computational project is implemented in VisualFortran in conjunction with the AMPL (A Mathematical Programming Language) software. In the static methodology the transport and disjunctive models are compared, the first one being the most economical computationally, but it doesn't consider certain aspects of the network. The disjunctive model offers a solution closer to reality. It is shown that the dynamic or multiperiod planning model is the cheapest methodology, since the investment is made only if necessary in the indicated period of time, in turn this model is more complex numerically. The N-1 model is the most efficient considering the safety of the network, it determines the most severe contingency and proceeds to plan the expansion of the network under this criterion, it turns out to be the least economic model, but the most reliable. The computational program is applied with satisfactory results to the Garver system. Index Terms: Mixed-integer linear programming (MILP), Transmission expansión planning, Static planning, Dynamic planning, Contingency planning (N-1).

In many engineering applications it is needed to find the ideal solution for non-linear, multimodal and highly complex constraints problems. Conventional optimization techniques, based on derivate and gradients, generally do not work well for problems like that, especially for the bigger ones. Recently, bio- inspired metaheuristic algorithms have been used to solve complex problems, and they have been surprisingly efficient at that. This paper presents a hybrid version between Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) and Clonal Selection Algorithm (CLONALG) to solve the transmission expansion planning problem. The goal of this problem is to find the electrical circuits that should be built to minimize the investments and operation costs while supplying the expected demand for a given planning horizon. Based on flower reproduction, FPA simulates the pollination process that happens in nature. The clonal selection operator, giving by CLONALG, is incorporated in the standard FPA to improve the local search process by cloning the most attractive solutions. The proposed methodology was verified in the Garver and South Brazilian systems and the results show that the hybridized version proposed can find better solutions when compared with original FPA, and therefore is a promising technique. Index Terms: Heuristic algorithms, power system planning, power transmission.

02.006 Optimization of Wind Farms Layout Through Artificial Immune System L. L. Gomes, L. W. Oliveira, I. C. Silva Jr and J. A. Passos Filho Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF), Juiz de Fora, MG, Brasil

The penetration of wind energy into electrical power systems has been increased due to technical, availability and environmental aspects. This leads to the problem of optimizing the wind farms layout aiming at minimizing investments and maximizing the wind energy. In this sense, the present work proposes a novel application of metaheuristic to the wind farms optimization. In particular, the bioinspired technique known as Artificial Immune System (AIS) is proposed to determine the number, optimal placement and layout of wind turbines in a predefined land of a wind farm. The objectives are to maximize the power from wind turbines subjected to minimal investment and operational costs. The proposed approach considers important aspects as the wake effect, the ground roughness and the limits for the number of turbines and land. The innovative aspect consists of an application of an unexplored technique to the wind farms optimization. A test case is presented to assess the proposed approach. Index Terms: Artificial immune system, layout, wake effect, wind turbines.

Nowadays there is a trend to use Photovoltaic Generation to replace the conventional one which involves fossil fuels. This obliges to carry out studies to analyze different aspects of the operation of these parks where both technologies either conventional or nonconventional ones coexists. One of the aspects to be studied is the analysis of dynamic behavior of the electric system called Analysis of Transient Stability. Photovoltaic generation systems, in contrast with conventional ones, are static, i.e. they do not have mobile parts, and nevertheless, changes in solar radiation, produced by the presence of low and isolated clouds, modify the power delivered by the photovoltaic park. These changes of active power generated by photovoltaic parks are seen as a constraint by the electric system producing frequency variations in the electric system and the consequent speed variation in conventional generators in operation. Therefore, the impact of solar radiation changes under the presence of traveling trains of clouds over the Transient Stability, considering not only concentrated but also disperse Photovoltaic Generation, is analyzed in this work. Besides, it is presented a methodology to determine a Penetration Index of Disperse Photovoltaic Generation which allows the definition of the maximum power coming from photovoltaic generation in relation to the maximum power demanded as well as the Spinning Reserve Power that guarantee the Transient Stability of the Power System, taking into account the geographical distribution of photovoltaic generators. Index Terms: Frequency control, photovoltaic system, solar panels, solar power generation, power system stability.

In this paper a new algorithm for application in the expansion planning to medium voltage overhead distribution networks is presented. This new algorithm is based on the PRIM algorithm, but was implemented with the concept of dynamic computational programming, using the aid of data structure to model the problem. The input data for the algorithm were modeled in a double-chained list format to ensure the movement and quick access of the information. Thus, the algorithm has the ability to establish a new radial topology for the network, seeking to meet future demand by building new lines that are successively selected at a lower possible construction cost. For the evaluation of the performance of the algorithm, computational tests using data from systems available in the specialized literature: the 23 and 33 node systems. The results were of quality and were obtained in an excellent processing time and the new algorithm was efficient and robust in the solution search process.

This document optimizes a commissioning problem, minimizing the cost of dispatching thermoelectric generators to a time horizon of the electric power system, with the presence of solar, hydroelectric and thermoelectric power generation. In order to define the temporal order of thermoelectric generation, the problem takes into account a history of flow in the hydropower plants of the system and the uncertainties inherent in the production of solar energy. Thus, shortterm energy planning will be defined taking into account the estimation of solar irradiance through the concept of uncertainties. As a proposal of resolution, we use linear programming coupled to a mathematical technique called Robust Optimization (RO) that will be solved by the algorithm of generation of columns and restrictions (C&CG), applied to decompose the global problem among the uncertainties of the given Operation By Solar irradiation achievements. Index Terms: Energy planning, robust optimization, C&CG, optimization in electrical systems.

This paper aims to present a new algorithm to the application about the reconfiguration problem of electric power distribution systems with the objective of establishing the best configuration for the distribution network minimizing electrical losses and improving voltage levels. The new algorithm was implemented using the Dev-C++ and based on the Greedy Algorithm, but it was built through intelligent programming with double chained lists and dynamic memory to ensure a good performance. Thus the algorithm has the capacity of establishing a radial topology for the network, seeking to minimize losses by opening or closing switches that are successively selected. To evaluate the performance of the algorithm, computational tests were performed on systems that are available in the specialized literature. The results obtained with the simulations showed quality solutions obtained with an excellent processing time, attesting the efficiency of the new algorithm.

In order to maintain the operation of the electric power system under normal operating conditions, possible control actions may be taken. In this study, an optimization process is employed to determine the amount of reactive power compensation that should be installed in buses groups previously defined. Thus, three objectives functions are adopted, to reduce the active power losses, in system and in critical areas, and to maximize the load margin. For this sake, it is employed the evolutionary optimization technique, particle swarm optimization (PSO), and the coherence areas determination is performed with the aid of the tangent vector. As the reactive power problem is local, for the control of voltage levels, the most appropriate buses for installation of reactive compensation are also determined by tangent vector sensibility. Thus, two groups with eight buses are identified: sensitive to losses and critical to the voltage collapse. The tests were performed using IEEE 118 and 300 buses system. The results show how the losses reduction in determined areas impact on the system total loss and the load margin. Furthermore, the sensitivity information provided by the tangent vector as initial data for optimization help the PSO to find its solution. Index Terms: Critical areas, particle swarm optimization, active power losses, reactive power compensation.

The growing penetration of renewable resources, as the wind power, in the energy matrix of several countries increases the uncertainties related to the continuity of supply due to intermittences of such sources. Therefore, ancillary services are important to improve the reliability and security of a power system. This paper presents an approach to evaluate the spinning generation reserve that considers uncertainties over load demand by using an AC power flow model. The constraints referred to the power flow limits of lines and to a simplified capability curve of hydraulic generators are observed. The objective is to support the system operator in the supply of energy with continuity and the lower possible spinning reserve cost. Index Terms: Capability generation curve, load scenarios, optimal power flow, power system, spinning reserve.

de Buenos Aires (UBA), Argentina Northwest National Laboratory, EEUU

Under extreme operational conditions, it could be difficult to assure power system stability against severe contingencies only by means of normal system schemes. The so-called System Protection Schemes (SPS) are implemented in many utilities to guarantee stability of the power system under extreme contingencies and they are also used to increase operational power transfer limits in order to maximize grid utilization. SPS monitor the magnitudes over a wide area and perform automatic actions based on the detection of system contingencies and the actual power system conditions. Synchrophasor technology uses Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) to measure grid voltage and current and to calculate frequency and phase angle over an area. These measurements are time-synchronized to references such as GPS satellites. Synchrophasor data is reported at rates of 25 to 50 records per second. This work performs a literature exploration of PMU-based SPS, prioritizing implementations in real power systems, which will be taken into account in a future reformulation of the current SPS of the 500kV transmission network of the Argentine Power System. Basic principles and fundamentals of each reported case will be described. Index Terms: System protection schemes, transmission system, PMU, synchrophasors.

This paper presents a new algorithm to medium voltage overhead distribution lines expansion planning. Such algorithm is able to establish a strategy for the connection of distributed generation units into distribution power system. In the first step the algorithm establishes a new topology for the network, meeting the future demand and the necessary technical criteria to deliver electricity to consumers. The problem is represented by a nonlinear mathematical model and the solution is obtained iteratively. In each iteration, a specialized sensitivity indicator using information from the solution of the mathematical model supports the decision making. In the second step, looking for the best benefit to the network operation, the algorithm evaluates the established topology to indicate the capacity and candidate buses for connection of the distributed generation. Computational tests were carried out to evaluate the algorithm performance. The results obtained through the simulations showed that the algorithm converges rapidly and finds feasible solutions. Index Terms: Distributed power generation, power distribution lines, power system analysis computing, power system management, power system planning.

Hydraulic models have been extensively used in engineering since the XIXth century, when many hydroelectric power plants were under design and numerical models were not available. Building a hydraulic model was faster and cheaper than solving differential equations of fluid dynamics over large model domains. Development of numerical tools in the last decades have drawn most of the research focus on fluid mechanics, leading hydraulic models to a secondary plane. In fact, numerical models quickly evolved, and nowadays they are able to solve three-dimensional problems, producing stable and consistent results. However, numerical models still need calibration and parameters estimation, and hydraulic models are needed on that ever since no field data is available, which is quite frequent. Considering that computer science development stressed project schedules, hydraulic models need to be built and commissioned in a few months. This article presents the experience acquired on the Hydraulics Research Center (Centro de Pesquisas Hidráulicas - CPH) in this regard, which made possible building two hydraulic models in 6 months. These models were built to study reservoir silting of the Salto Paraopeba Hydropower, owned by CEMIG. Materials and techniques used are described, and some of the obtained results are shown.

This paper presents a case study about a real power system, operating as an isolated system (delta-delta network) in a 69kV transmission line, focused on the changes in the protection adjustments. The line under analysis makes part of a transmission/distribution system that, under normal operational conditions is connected in 69kV level until the substation a small city in the end of the circuit. However, when maintenance is necessary in one of the 69kV line, it is necessary an alternative to feed the small city. To overcome this problem and operational minimize costs, an 11,4kV distribution line is used to feed a 69kV substation, that is the origin of the 69kV transmission line that transports energy to the small city. In maintenance conditions, there is an isolated system established around the line under analysis. In this sense, a study using RTDS (Real Time Digital Simulator) is made, by the analysis of the behavior of voltages and currents seen by the protection. The results show that the system conditions vary significantly when the 69kV line is removed from operation and the system starts operating with the 11.4kV line, which demands important changes in the protection, to guarantee its performance in case of contingency. Index Terms: Distribution system, power system protection, RTDS, system operation.

02.020 Performance of Metaheuristics Applied to Wind-Hydrothermal Dispatch Problem R. A. de Moraes, T. S. P. Fernandes, M.R. Bessa and K. Geus Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR), Curitiba, PR, Brasil

The growing of alternative forms of generation coordinated with conventional types of generations (as hydraulic and thermal generation) requires the developing of new formulations of power and energy dispatches for different horizons of study. For the horizon of one year, which is the object of this study, there are many works that formulate hydrothermal dispatch problems which are difficult to be solve because these problems are nonlinear, stochastics and intertemporal. They are solved via various traditional techniques and artificial intelligence. Although many papers apply the classical formulation of the GAs to solve the dispatch problem of energy, there is another metaheuristic technique called Differential Evolution (DE) that presents good performance to this kind of problem. So, the main objective of the work is to carry out a comparison of metaheuristic techniques to solve a wind- hydrothermal dispatch that incorporates the transmission constraints of the electric network for the horizon of one year. The techniques analyzed are DE and GA, tested on a 34-bus system. Index Terms: Wind-hydrothermal scheduling, genetic algorithm, transmission restrictions, differential evolution, short-term horizon.

The Reactive Optimal Power Flow (ROPF) problem is mathematically modeled as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem, and plays an important role in the power systems planning and operation. The main goal of solving a ROPF problem is to optimize a power system performance measure, while satisfying its physical and operating constraints. This paper proposes a trust region nonlinear rescaling approach to solve ROPF problems for transmission active power loss minimization. A penalty function is employed to handle the discrete variables, so that the problem becomes continuous and differentiable. The nonlinear rescaling method is applied to the inequality constraints, leading to an equivalent problem with only equality constraints, which is solved by a trust region sequential quadratic programming method. Each trial step of the trust region method is decomposed into two components: a normal step, that tries to achieve feasibility, and a tangential step, which tries to achieve optimality while preserving the feasibility attained by the normal step. Numerical experiments with the IEEE benchmark test-systems are carried out to show the performance of the proposed algorithm. Index Terms: Discrete variables, modified logarithmic barrier, nonlinear rescaling, reactive optimal power flow, trust region.

02.024 Avaliação da Capacidade de Máxima Transferência de Potência em Sistemas Elétricos Interligados via Programação Linear Sequencial T. G. Moreira, K. R. Barbosa, J. A. Passos Filho e J. L. R. Pereira Due to the increasing complexity of Electrical Power Systems, economical analysis related to their planning and operation are extremely important. In this context, the evaluation of the maximum active power transfer between different regions is an important task in order to allow a better use of energy resources.This paper proposes the use of the Linear Programming (LP) based Optimal Power Flow, which consists of the intercalated solution of the conventional AC power flow and the linear programming problem through linearized constraint sensitivity coefficients. The new set of the control variables is obtained from the LP problem and a new operation point is calculated. The results are achieved by successive generation redispatch, whose objective function is the minimization of the active power generation cost. Initially, the power system is divided in two regions: exporter and importer. In the exporting region the active power generation is increased, while the other region is decreased, in order to make the transfer of active power among the regions. As a consequence, the maximum active power transfer capacity is also achieved. The proposed approach was implemented using MatLab environment and the obtained results were validated through the comparison with FLUPOT program. Index Terms: Available transfer capability, optimal power flow, linear programming, maximum active power transfer, power transmission.

In this paper the non-ideal Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) model, applied to the control of voltage in the power flow, was solved by Newton's method. The flow results are used to evaluate STATCOM interference in stability to small perturbations of two power test systems. In order to improve the transient characteristic of the system, additional damping controllers are inserted, in the generators Power System Stabilizer - PSS and Power Oscillation Damping - POD in the STATCOM, both adjusted simultaneously by the technique Particle Swarm Optimization - PSO. The Power Sensitivity Model is applied to represent the electric system, resulting in the representation of state space. Stability is analyzed by the Lyapunov method and curves in time.

This paper investigates the coordination between medium-term generation planning and short-term operation in electricity markets for hydropower systems. Traditional central- ized short-term models have been replaced by decentralized dispatch models such as the auction models used by market operators. Most of the day-ahead auction models proposed are formulated for thermal systems. Such models neglect any sort of coordination strategy. However, coordination is essential in hydropower systems in order to enforce security and reliability now and in the future. This work proposes a hydrothermal coordination approach for day-ahead energy markets where short- and medium-term decisions are taken into account in a single model. In this approach, hydrothermal coordination is formulated as a two-stage stochastic linear programming problem, where the water inflow uncertainty is represented by a set of scenarios. The first-stage consists in solving a network- constrained multi-period energy auction model and obtain the generation power scheduling for each hour of the day-ahead. The second-stage decisions are made by solving a medium-term gener- ation planning problem. To evaluate the impact of the proposed coordination approach, computational tests are performed. By evaluating the generation dispatch and the daily nodal prices, it is possible to observe the impact of the hydrothermal coordination in the energy market. Index Terms: Auction energy, energy markets, hydrothermal coordination, medium-term, stochastic programming.

This paper proposes the use of a constructive metaheuristic algorithm to solve the generating unit maintenance scheduling problem. A reliability based maintenance methodology is considered to provide a quantitative basis for allocation of maintenance efforts and budgets. The proposed tool makes the gradual construction of maintenance plans through local and global search engines, commonly used by optimization techniques. At the constructive process four mechanisms are used: addition, crossover, mutation and depuration. These mechanisms are responsible for ensuring a parsimonious construction process, towards good quality solutions. Sensitivity indices, based on generation system reliability information, are used in the constructive process, both in the identification of generating units for the addition mechanism and in the definition of generating units that will be removed from the maintenance plan, by the depuration process. The IEEE-RTS system is used for performance analysis of the constructive metaheuristic algorithm, when employed to solve the problem of planning the maintenance of generating unit. Index Terms: Constructive metaheuristic, interruption costs, maintenance scheduling, reliability.

In the electricity markets with oligopolistic competition, generation companies carry out strategies or games to exert market power in order to increase their profits above competitive levels to prevent the entry of new agents to the market. To minimize the risks in capital intensive projects (investments in capacity), generation companies must invest timely (anticipate or react). For this, the investors seek tools that allow quantify the value of flexibility considering the strategic movements of its competitors. This paper develops an evaluation tool, called Options Game, which combines Real Options with Game Theory. To validate the model, an application of the Options Game approach has been represented, which quantifies the effect of a duopolistic market in decision making. The results indicate a considerable reduction of risk by postponing the investment, which is related to the arrival of new information before making the decision. Index Terms: Flexibility, game theory, generation capacity, investment, real options, strategic behaviour, uncertainty.

In this article we propose the resolution of the problem of economic dispatch in the electric power system with the integration of the photovoltaic plants with the objective of optimizing the dispatch using the internal points method using MatPower software and analyzing the influence that a renewable source would have on the total cost of operation of the thermal units. The proposal considers the variation of the generation of the photovoltaic plant of São João do Piauí as well as of the demand of load of the state of Piauí along the horizon of operation in studies dividing it in intervals of one hour. For each interval, a dispatch will be made considering the value of the photovoltaic plant generation and the load demand of the system for this moment. In the results, we have the determination of the most suitable value of power injection of the photovoltaic plant for the minimum cost of operation of the thermal units as well as the time interval that this will occur. In addition, it was determined in which cases the highest operational cost of the thermal units occurs. Index Terms: Economic dispatch, power generation control, power system operations, solar power generation, unit commitment, variable generation.

This paper presents the application of a method to estimates the structural reliability of the Subtransmission systems, directed to the planning of the expansion and operation of the Electric Power System (EPS). This method is innovative in the sense of evaluating reliability not only by the historical records of EPS performance, which are influenced by variables such as the climate and quantity of programmed interventions, but mainly by the constructive characteristics of their structures. The stochastic behavior of EPS is represented by connection trees, the reliability is evaluated probabilistically using the method of minimal cut-sets, and the total durations of interruptions for 1st and 2st order cuts are evaluated in the period of one year, depending on the failure rates of the lines and transformers, the average maneuvering times and the carrying capacity of the remaining elements, that gives the percentage of load transfer. An existed Subtransmission system is evaluated and a reliability ranking of its structures is established, then alternatives works are defined in order to improve its worst structures. The planned system is assessed and only the alternatives which reached the balance between the prudent investment and relia ility s targets it will included at works portfolio. Index Terms: Connection trees; minimal cut-sets; power system reliability; prudent investment; structural reliability; subtransmission systems.

02.032 Static Planning of Power Transmission System Expansion through Bioinspired Optimization Technique C. A. Moraes, E. J. De Oliveira, L. W. Oliveira and I. C. Silva Junior Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora, Juiz de Fora (UFJF), MG, Brasil

This work proposes a two-step resolution strategy to solve the static transmission expansion planning problem: (a) Initially, a constructive heuristic algorithm is used to serve two purposes: firstly, to finds an improved initial set of candidate solutions for the bioinspired metaheuristic, aiming at improving the performance of the optimization algorithm; secondly, to generate only a good initial solution that will be inserted into the set of random initial solutions. For that, four sensitivity indexes are used in this constructive heuristic algorithm; (b) Since this improved initial set of candidate solutions and initial solution are known, they are transferred to the multimodal optimization process, based on the echolocation phenomenon considering the doppler effect. The obtained results indicate that the proposed solution strategy provides increased efficiency for the multimodal optimization process by the search for optimality, since competitive solutions to the proposals in the literature were obtained. Index Terms: Static transmission networking expansion planning, constructive heuristic, sensitivity indexes, bat algorithm, Doppler effect.

In the liberalized markets, generation companies evaluate investment alternatives considering high committed capital, risk and profitability expectations. These expectations are difficult to anticipate because they depend on several factors that are highly uncertain, including both exogenous uncertainties - such as variations in demand and endogenous uncertainties -such as the behavior of competing generating agents. This paper proposes a methodology that adapts and clarifies the long-term data through a novel technique of experiential learning. This methodology is based on the Agent-based Computational Economics approach and similarity techniques. The results indicate a reduction of the extreme values of the profitability expectations of the alternatives Therefore, this implies a considerable reduction of the risk exposure of the investment alternatives.

To ensure proper functioning of power systems it is essential that the spinning reserve levels be carefully dimen- sioned. This paper presents a new methodology to determine the ideal amounts of spinning reserve in function of different load levels and weather seasons of the year, considering long-term planning horizons. The central idea is to size the reserve levels for each load profile, taking into account the fluctuation of power from renewable sources of energy. To reach the proposed objec- tives, the costs associated with the energy not supplied and the spinning reserve costs required to maintain acceptable reliability indices are estimated through sequential Monte Carlo simulation (SMCS), which is incorporated into the genetic algorithm (GA) to provide the necessary information for the evaluation of each possible solution. The methodology is applied in three test sys- tems: IEEE RTS96, IEEE RTS96H and IEEE RTS96HW. Index Terms: Generating reliability, genetic algorithm, monte carlo simulation, renewable sources, spinning reserve.

The multi-objective economic and environmental dispatch problem with valve-point loading effect and losses is concerned with the minimization of generation costs and the emission of pollutants while accounting for systems operational constraints. The problem is formulated as a multi-objective, nonlinear, non-convex, non-differentiable problem and due to such numerical complexities, this problem has been solved mainly by heuristic approaches. The objective of this paperis to investigate and solve the multi-objective dispatch problem by a deterministic approach. The deterministic approach pro- posed involves the method of progressive bounded constraints, smoothing functions and nonlinear rescaling method with inertia correction techniques. The multi-objective nature of the problem is handled by the method of Progressive Bounded Constraints; a smoothing technique is used to handle non-differentiability issues; the nonlinear rescaling method is used to solve the subproblems resulting from the Progressive Bounded Constraints method and the inertia correction strategy is used so that only descent directions are generated. The methodology will be applied to generation systems and the results obtained will be compared to others optimization approaches. Index Terms: Multi-objective problem, economic/environmental dispatch, valve point loading effect, losses, deterministic approach.

This work presents a hybrid method based on Harmony Search (HS) and Branch & Bound (B&B) to solve the problem of Static (PEEST) and Dynamic (PDEST) Transmission Network Expansion Planning in electrical power systems. The result of this formulation is mixed-integer nonlinear programming, where the difficulties are intensified in the PDEST by the temporal coupling. Therefore, a methodology was developed to reach the solution in three different stages: The first one is responsible for obtaining an efficient set of best candidate routes for the expansion; the metaheuristic optimization process uses Harmony Search to find PEEST’s optimal solution and its neighborhood that provides a PDEST candidate zone; lastly, a hybrid algorithm that mixes the HS and B&B concepts is adapted to provide the optimal PDEST. In this study, the lossless linearized modeling for load flow is used as a representation of the transmission network. Tests with the Garver, Two Valleys, and southern Brazilian systems were carried out to verify the performance method. The computational time saving for the PEEST and PDEST prove the efficacy of the proposed method. Index Terms: Branch & bound, constructive heuristic algorithms, dynamic transmission expansion planning, harmony search, power systems planning.

The paper proposes to apply the sensitivity analysis technique to estimate the electric losses of active and reactive power. From the Jacobian Matrix, it is possible to identify which points in the system are most sensitive to an adjustment of a control variable in order to minimize losses. The control variables considered in this work were: the voltage in the generation bus, the active power injection in all the bus of the system (except the slack bus), and the reactive power injection in the load bus. Thus, the main objective is to determine corrective measures that lead to a new operation point of the system where losses are reduced.

02.046 Model for the Self-Scheduling of a Hydrothermal Company in a PoolBased Electricity Market T. Gomes Cabana and L. Nepomuceno Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Bauru, SP, Brasil

In the day-ahead electricity market, generation companies need to solve some problems with the ultimate goal of maximizing their profits. One of those problems consists in determining, in the short-term, the optimal self-scheduling of the units belonging to the company so that the profit from selling energy is maximized disregarding the power balance in the system. In this paper we propose a 0/1 mixed-integer linear programming model for self-scheduling problem of a generation company owing hydro and thermal plants. We assume a price- maker generating company, which means that it has the ability the market-clearing prices by means of altering its offers in the market. The main tool of this model is the price-quota curve, which models the ability of company price-maker to altering market-clearing prices. As result, we present a computation tool of economic analysis for companies in the day ahead market. Index Terms: Hydrothermal systems, self-scheduling model, price quota curve, electricity pool market, market clearing procedure, mixed integer linear programming.

02.047 Improving Special Protection Schemes with Operations Research Analysis A. Hoese EEConsulting, San Juan, Argentina

The paper describes the fundamentals of Special Protection Systems (SPS) and their strength relationship with mathematical models of the transmission network. New technical, social and environmental restrictions are demanding SPS to deal with real-time assessment, intelligent decision- making models, state estimators, optimization algorithms and heuristics among other techniques of Operations Research (OR). State of the art in communication, acquisition, control and monitoring devices together with real-time automation controllers allow building these models as the core of a SPS, leaving behind the traditional concept of precalculated "state tables" and the use of "ladder-logic" programming languages. Two recent applications at the Central Interconnected System in Chile designed by the author are shown as examples of this synergy between OR and hardware technology, to build successful SPS currently in operation. The paper intends to emphasize the need of incorporating advanced OR techniques in the design of core control algorithms for modern SPS in transmission power systems, and to depict the advantages and challenges that it entails. Index Terms: Power system analysis computing, power system modeling, system security and reliability, special protection systems.

02.048 Optimal Involvement in the Futures Market for a Hydro Power Producer T. Forti da Silva and L. Nepomuceno Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Bauru, SP, Brasil

A power producer can use the futures market as a hedging tool against the volatility of pool market prices, seeking a tradeoff between higher profits and lower risks. However, a hydroelectric power producer must coordinate its participation in these markets with the management of its reservoir levels in the medium term, transferring water from the rainy season to the dry season. To solve this problem, this work proposes a two-stage stochastic programming model that considers the uncertainties associated with the pool market prices and the water inflows, using the conditional value at risk (CVaR) measure. The proposed model can be effitiently solved via commercial available solvers and it is evaluated in a test system consisting of 13 hydroelectric power plants over a period of one year. Index Terms: Power portfolio optimization, electricity market, hydrothermal systems, conditional value at risk, stochastic programming.

Additions of power generation capacity usually commit significant amounts of capital resources. In the long-term, returns of power investments are vulnerable to the occurrence of unfavorable market conditions. Volatility of electricity and fuel prices, transmission constraints and technical unavailability of the own installations introduce significant uncertainty on the financial performance of the investment generation project actual. Decisions on capital investments are typically ased on deterministic profita ility metrics such the project’s net present value (NPV) and/or the internal rate of return (IRR). Nevertheless, because of the uncertain factors realized returns may dramatically differ from projections at time of decision. In fact, some unanticipated adverse scenarios can even endanger the survival of the generating firms. For this reason, generation companies consider not only profitability expectations, but also the involved risks. The objective of this article is to demonstrate the feasibility of applying stochastic simulation for appraising generation investment projects under consideration of exogenous and endogenous project uncertainty and its associated risks. A gas-fired open cycle and a combined cycle power plant are used as exemplary investment projects. Expected profitability and risk metrics, such as VaR (Value-at-Risk) and loss probability, are derived from these distributions. Sensitivity analysis of return and risk metrics upon some driving variables is performed.

Considering the context of the Brazilian Energy Planning, it is reiterated the great importance of the thermoelectricity in order to guarantee an optimum operation of the reservoirs in a given planning period. In other words, it can be affirmed through results obtained by computational simulations that thermoelectricity plays a fundamental role in meeting the demand for electric power in a Hydrothermal Power System. Evident that the thermoelectricity, when used efficiently, shows a strategic and operational value of great importance in the Brazilian electricity matrix. Based on this scenario, the present work will analyze hydroelectricity and thermoelectricity in the context of Operation Planning of Hydrothermal Power Systems. Considering that there is no cost of fuel related to hydroelectricity, this paper will analyze the present forms of planning and it will discuss alternatives to optimize the electric power generation complemented by thermoelectric, especially nuclear thermoelectric, which presents itself as a base complementary source and constant throughout the planning period, given its lower cost of fuel compared to other sources, and of course, it will discuss the strategic aspect and the energy security, given the fact that this is a technology in the domain of our nation.

The reduction of the storage capacity and the regularization in the reservoirs generates a gradual decrease in the capacity of generation of energy and has a strong impact on the national electricity system. The reduction of the capacity of regularization is study by means of reduced models of moving bottom, the sediments used in the models will be representative in the relation of the geometric and dynamic similarities of the transport process of the sediment in the prototype (real scale). Various types of sediments are used such as high density wood forest residues, but these materials are difficult to obtain and decompose over time. Thus, the use of artificial (synthetic) and low-cost materials should be compared as an alternative to this type of application. The article presents the development of a methodology and preliminary results of the study of the physical and hydrodynamic characteristics of tire rubber grain for its use in reduced models that allow to represent the behavior of the original material (sand grain) present in the sediment transport process (involving the drag, suspension and deposition) in the reservoir.

In the Francis turbine rotors fluid leakage can be seen at the periphery between the rotor inlet and the suction pipe and between the rotor and the top cap, these leakage locations are called labyrinths. The labyrinths are the interstices formed by the pairs of fixed and movable wear rings which are positioned so that they have the function of non-contact sealing and are strategically constructed with the function of minimizing the leakage of fluid from a system, the rings have the shortest distance between the rotating and fixed part of the rotor of the turbine, which consequently generates a greater use of the available energy. In this system, as the rotation increases the pressure difference (ΔP) tends to decrease. As the flow through the labyrinth respects the relation of load versus internal loss of charge there will be a reduction in the flow outflow. To verify this assertion, it was developed based on the studies of Idelcik (1960) and Pfleider and Petermann (1979), an equation for the calculation of the head loss and the other calculations necessary in labyrinths of the simple type that is a model of labyrinth in Cylindrical ring used in rotors manufactured for available falls of up to 60 meters. The equation found results in the head loss in a function of pressure variation, friction coefficient and labyrinth width.

Measurement and analysis of partial discharges (PD) is one of the most effective methods for analyzing the statistical isolation of the generator. However, despite having well-defined patterns, it is not trivial to fitting the signals in these patterns, due principally to the variations of PD of the same type of the problem. The use of a tool that streamlines this process is suggested in this work, as it is a solution for analyzing large amounts of information. A hybrid (unsupervised / supervised) approach was applied to identify patterns and then will make the classification in the known forms of PD. This paper proposes the use of data mining techniques based on clustering to group the characteristic patterns of PD DP into hydro generators, defined in standards. Then, decision trees are trained to classify cases from new measurements. A comparative analysis will be performed between clustering algorithms and decision trees to for choose what is the superior combination to made the better classification to the diagnosis of machine. Index Terms: Clustering, data mining, decision tree, partial discharges.

05.004 Guidelines for the Hydraulic Potential Studies of Mining Plants for Electricity Generation I. E. V. Passos and E. M. Leal Federal University of Ouro Preto (UFPO), Campus Morro do Cruzeiro, Ouro Preto, MG, Brazil

Currently, the Brazilian mining sector is recovering from a crisis due to the recent events that have raised doubts about the conditions of tailings dams and their structural efficiency. It is known that one of the great problems of the mining companies is the use of water resources in the ore transportation and storage of waste and one of the great expenses of their plants is the high consumption of electric energy to feed the engines. This paper aims to discuss and seek the possible ways to take advantage of the available water resources in the exploration regions. The objective is to show the guidelines for the establishment of hydroelectric power plants in mining plants. It will also be discussed the possibility of reducing the demand for electric power purchased from concessionaires and the sale of surplus electricity to other companies, which makes it attractive for mining companies to generate energy through the reject dam, since the water resources available in the region are used in the ore extraction and enrichment.

Energy is the key element in the human society development. It is the driving force of most services destined to benefit people. As one of the energy production sources, the fossil fuels are pointed out as the main cause of climate changes suffered by the planet. In that context, alternative ways of clean energy production are necessary. Brazil is known for its energy generation potential due to its huge land extension and water resources. This work presents a possible solution for energy production to different applications, aiming sustainability and ease of deployment, the hydrokinetic turbine. The hydrokinetic turbine studied was the Gorlov turbine. The QBlade software was used to evaluate the airfoils used in such turbines, showing advantages for the NACA 0018 profile. A profile in such turbine must present a stronger geometry in order to be more impact resistant. Finally, the hydrokinetic turbine reappears as an alternative of clean energy source with low environmental impacts. The hydrokinetic turbines can produce energy to small companies, communities, and to places far from the public network, where there are problems involving electrical network lines. Index Terms: Energy generation, hydrokinetic turbine, isolated regions, sustainability.

05.006 Study of the Effect of the Complementary Use of Wind Energy on the Load Recovery Capacity of Henry Borden Hydropower Plant in Brazil P. M. de Arruda, J. C. Teixeira and P. T. L. Asano Universidade Federal do ABC (UFABC), Santo André, SP, Brasil

The Henry Borden hydropower plant in Brazil is supplied by the Pinheiros waterway, which is elevated 31 m by Traição and Pedreira pumping plants to Billings reservoir, then falls 720 m towards the turbines. This height difference implies 5.654 MW/m3/s of energy gain. The hydropower plant can also perform load recovery (black start) during a blackout. However, since 1992, it delivers 75% less power than its nominal 889 MW, due to water transfer restrictions. To increase its generation, in normal operation and during blackouts, the water available at its reservoir should increase. Feeding the pumping plants with wind energy could enable sending all of Henry Borden's electricity to the grid. The proximity of Billings reservoir has reasonable wind speeds and enough area to host a wind farm to generate the annual power the pumps demand. Four different scenarios of wind energy use in a complementary way to Henry Borden were investigated, before and during a long-lasting blackout, and the energy delivery to the grid was compared. Different water levels at the reservoir were considered. The best scenario was the one in which, in normal operation, wind energy is injected into the grid, and, during a blackout, it powers the pumps. Index Terms: Hydroelectric power generation, load management, power system planning, pumps, wind energy.

The installations of a hydroelectric’s implantation causes the interruption of the natural flow of the rivers and with this we have an obstruction of the traffic of fish. This becomes more sensitive when these buses stops the migration of the species during the reproductive period, forcing them to find another forms of migration or simply preventing them from that. In many cases, individuals migrants seek to overcome the rails by entering the suction tubes of the hydraulic turbines and moving to near the rotors of the machines. The entry of fish into the hydraulic turbines can cause death events with severe environmental and legal repercussions. To try to minimize this impact, Fish Transposition Mechanisms (MTP's) are installed, in charge of connecting the downstream region to the reservoir, allowing the species to access upstream to continue the natural reproduction process. In order for the design of these mechanisms to be effectively, it is necessary to know the swimming characteristics of the species to be transposed. Thus it is necessary to identify the speeds developed by the fish in order to design devices that allow the species to be able to perform the transposition. The identification of the swimming capacity of the fish is done through the determination of the critical velocity. For this are used the methodology and apparatus based on Brett's (1964) breathalyzer. This work presents a study on the reduction of increment of the time of changing speeds during the test of 10 to 05 and 04 minutes for the the critical’s speed calculations. This reduction of the time increment directly impacts the working capacity of the research groups regarding the survey of the critical speeds of Neotropical fish species. The target species in this study is Pimelodus maculatus, better known as mandi-amarelo. The statistical differences obtained with the tests are analyzed in order to verify the possibility of carrying out the tests with increments of speed with intervals of time less than 10 minutes. Index Terms: Neotropical fishes especies, pimelodus maculatus, fish transposition mechanisms, fish swimming, critical velocity.

The Hydroelectric Power Plants are the most important source of energy in Brazil. At the beginning of the XX Century, the Electric Sector has passed the environmental problems witch was gradually surpassed or mitigated. Among the questions that were open, stand out those subjects about aquatic fauna, in special the icthyofauna. The literature list that the main anthropic factor is a loss of biodiversity and the change of the habitats. The dealerships has been striving to mitigate the negative impacts of its reservoirs on fish community. One of the most discussed impacts among the specialists is an interception of migratory fish routes through out the dam, which leads to interference of the fish community. Attention towards this impact is extremely relevant when consider the diversity of fish species in Brazilian rivers and their Book of Abstracts 53

The synchronous generator is an important component of the electrical power systems and it is subjected to various risks, especially in its excitation. For this reason, the use of protection devices to safeguard the generators is essential. In this sense, this paper presents the results of a numerical protection relay behavior in response to various events which the generators may be subjected. For this, loss of excitation and overexcitation caused by load shedding in a synchronous generator of salient poles were simulated in a test power system simulated in Simulink/Matlab environment.

An important part of the synchronous generator is the excitation system. Any failures in the excitation system can cause several consequences for the generator and power system connected to it. The loss of excitation is worst event that can happen in the generator excitation system. This disturbance can cause the machine to lose synchronism with the power system. In additional, these events can cause the overexcitation of the neighboring generators. To minimize these effects, it is necessary to isolate the synchronous machine quickly using protection relays with the following ANSI functions: loss of excitation (ANSI 40), loss of Book of Abstracts 54

synchronism (ANSI 78) and overexcitation (ANSI 24) protections. So, this paper presents an evaluation of these protections functions of a numerical relay for loss of excitation and loss of synchronism events. Computational simulations using a Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS) and closed loop tests are performed for this purpose. The results and conclusions are presented and analyzed from the oscillograms, based on the time relay responses and based on the main gaps observed in the literature. Index Terms: Loss of excitation, loss of synchronism, overexcitation, real time digital simulator, synchronous generator.

One of the important aspects when analyzing the generators protection is the grounding type of the stator neutral, which will define the protection philosophy to be used. The type of generator grounding depends of the machine size. For large machines, a high value of grounding impedance is generally used to limit the fault current. The use of this type of grounding can cause problems related to overvoltage and insensitivity of the differential protection against stator-toground faults. Once phase-to-ground faults occur, a careful analysis of the stator protection philosophy (ANSI 64) of the synchronous generator is necessary. So, this paper presents a set of tests to evaluate the 100% protection of the stator of synchronous generators for phase-to-ground faults. For this, computational simulations are performed using a synchronous machine model of the Real Time Digital Simulator (RTDS). In additional, the real-time performance of a commercial relay using a hardware-in-the-loop scheme is analyzed. The main results are presented and discussed observing the gaps of the literature. Index Terms: 100% stator protection, RTDS, synchronous generator, phase-ground faults, third harmonic voltage.

Hydro-generator equipment has a lifetime that is related to several factors. Living organisms can negatively impact the shelf life of equipment, such as mollusks that can adhere to equipment surfaces by increasing surface roughness and causing increased pressure drop. In Brazil, some of the most representative bio- invasion occurrences are related to the introduction of the "Limnoperna fortunei" mussel, originating in Southeast Asia, introduced by the water of ship star and has a new distribution, not Brazil, Argentina Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia. From the incrustation in the pipes and condoms of the hydroelectric installations, this organism causes an occlusion in the pipes, generating an increase of loss of load and losses of efficiency in the Book of Abstracts 55

systems. This work presents an investigation about the influence of the rate of infestation of the Limnoperna fortunei in the increase of the internal losses of small hydraulic turbines of type Francis taking into account the temporal evolution of the same one. For this, a case study of a turbine that equips a Hydroelectric Generating Station (CGH) that is submitted to the infestation of Limnoperna fortunei is presented. As it is an infestation advances it causes increased internal losses, especially inside the spiral box.

In oil exploration activities there is a special type of platform with the capacity to drill and prepare the wells for production. These units are called drilling rigs. Most of these vessels uses dynamic positioning systems in order to maintain its position. A dynamic positioning unit has its power system typically powered by diesel generator sets connected to medium voltage busbars and are responsible for feeding the entire electrical plant including the thrusters, providing thrust against the resultant weather conditions applied on the platform. In this context, this work will obtain the consumption of the diesel generator sets for a typical platform based in two different electrical configurations for the medium voltage switchboards: with them connected (single busbar) and for segregated (three split). To achieve this objective the diesel consumption curve of the engine will be used and real propulsion load data were obtained in different scenarios: with the unit keeping position at a desirable location and during sailing. This analysis is relevant because will bring the fuel consumption levels at these different scenarios and which one it is possible to reduce the consumption, obtaining greater economy and also allowing the decrease of the greenhouse gases emission.

The rivers of the Amazon region present a high sediment load, which pass through the hydraulic machines causing abrasive wear, reducing the useful life of the equipment. The wear resistance due to abrasion and erosion of the rotors, depends on the characteristics of the materials used in its manufacture, however this wear is almost impossible to be totally avoided. This work presents a study of wear caused under a metal surface of the rotor blades of a small hydraulic turbine. In this analysis, the pellet samples collected at Acre River near the city of Rio Branco (AC) with different grain particles having D50 of 0,097mm, 73% of the sample of sand. Such wear can interfere with the profile of the equipment, reducing the efficiency of the equipment. The micro abrasion tests carried out on the AISI 8620 steel showed that as semirounded forms of the sediments, they can cause micro- grooving and deformation of the surface, as well as erosion by flow of the mixture. Index Terms: Abrasives, impellers, sediments.

The erosive wear on hydraulic turbines occurs due to the presence of solid particles immersed in the working fluid and causes the loss of rotor material reducing its efficiency and in some cases rendering it unusable. Methods of coating hydraulic machines blades to reduce erosion, have as consequence an increase in blade thickness which in turn modifies the velocity triangle and the forces acting on the rotor. This article describes the design of a Francis rotor and elaboration of the velocity triangle for three hypotheses considering variation in blade thickness and an ideal situation considering it infinitesimal, in order to correlate the velocities found in each condition with the drag force acting on the rotor surface, to verify that the advantages of the coating process are greatly reduced with the increase of forces. The difference in pressure over the same area and assumptions with different blade thicknesses can be neglected according to the analysis, given the advantages of the coating process. Index Terms: Francis turbine, erosion, velocity triangle, drag force.

The Golden Mussel is a freshwater bivalve mollusk that has caused several environmental and economic problems in some hydroelectric plants in Brazil. The first detection of this mollusk in Brazil occurred in the late 1990s. The infestation of the penstocks by this mollusk has special influence on systems with small diameters, typical of low power hydroelectric plants. When Golden Mussel infestation occurs in the penstocks of these developments, a significant increase in relative roughness (e/D) is observed. This work aims to evaluate the influence of Golden Mussel infestation on hydraulic transient in penstocks of these systems that operate with 1.000 kW machines, evaluating three penstocks separeted of different lengths during a load rejection with 100% of nominal flow. To obtain the desired results, the method of characteristics was used to calculate the hydraulic transients, in a simple system composed of a penstock with an upstream reservoir and a valve downstream. The closing time of the valve was adopted as slow, that is, greater than the critical time. First, the method of characteristics was applied to the penstocks without incrustation by the Golden Mussel. Then, a simulation of infestation was performed with the Golden Mussel, according to the roughness detected by Souza et al. (2016) of the uniform type, throughout the length of the penstocks, and a load rejection was simulated to evaluate the effects of this infestation. The results showed a difference between the values of the maximum overpressure in the penstocks without and with infestation by the Golden Mussel. Within this context, it was verified the need to change the closing law of the maneuver equipment, when the penstocks are under infestation by the Golden Mussel. Index Terms: Hydraulic transients, load shedding, Golden Mussel.

Typically, electric power distribution systems were not designed for the massive connection of generators. Therefore, technical problems can happen due to the growth in the number of generators connected to distribution systems. To ensure that the system operates within the quality standards imposed by regulatory agencies, utilities must evaluate the connection requests prior to the installation of a new photovoltaic generator (PV). Conducting case-by-case studies requires a large number of man-hours and processing time due to the need of repetitive power flow and short-circuit calculations. Thus, the development of metrics and procedures that allow the utility engineers to assess the connection requests faster should be adopted. This paper presents a sensitivity study of hosting capacity with respect to local network parameters. From the results provided by the sensitivity study, a graphic approach is proposed to check if a rooftop PV can be connected to the low voltage distribution system without any steadystate overvoltage problem. Index Terms: Capacidade de acomodação, sistemas de distribuição de energia elétrica, sistemas solares fotovoltaicos, sobretensão.

07.002 Optimal Investment Allocation for Supplying Isolated Systems by Renewable Energy Plants M. H. Balan, D. S. Ramos, E. Guarnier and L. A. S. Camargo Escola Politécnica da USP, SP, Brasil

In Brazil, the Isolated Systems represent those unconnected to the National Interconnected System. They are geographically distributed in 234 systems (representing a load of approximately 482,7 MWavg), mainly located in the Northern States, where the environmental preservation and great distances make the connection with the National System unfeasible. As consequence and given the favorable logistics for fuel supply, they are characterized by the strong dependence of small diesel power generation, an expensive fuel source and environmentally unfriendly. Then, the replacement of diesel per renewables power generation systems can bring benefits for the Isolated Systems. In this context, we propose a general methodology that aims to: (i) minimize the overall costs of electric power generation in Isolated Systems and (ii) to evaluate the technical and economic attractiveness of renewable generation systems implantation in such locations. The considered portfolio is composed by solar, wind and small hydroelectric power plants, which stand out for being environmentally suitable and be operated in an integrated way at minimal global cost.

Researches conducted in the northern coast of Brazil reported significant potential indicators of tidal energy (tides and tidal currents) especially at the coast of the states of Amapá, Pará and Maranhão. Those regions are characterized by the strong influence of large rivers, especially of the Amazon river, with an enormous volume of sediments. The performance of a submerged hydrokinetic turbine considering a marine environment with high sediment content is yet unknown. In this paper, the study of the impact of the sedimentation level on the performance of hydrokinetic turbines in oceanic estuaries is presented. Studies and simulations were performed using the ANSYS platform. As case study, a site located in the Bay of São Marcos (State of Maranhão) was considered. The data of ocean currents was collected in March of 2017 and used to elaborate a mathematical model to analyze the behavior of a marine hydrokinetic turbine in environments with high sediment content. Results of performance of the turbine are reported, including sensitivity analysis in relation to sediment concentration and ocean depth as well.

For this, an optimum power flow algorithm is applied with the inclusion of the power supplied or absorbed by banks of batteries as an optimization variable in the developed model. The objective is to minimize technical losses with minimum investment cost in storage systems, observing network constraints, such as voltage limits and load curves, as well as the variation of power from the renewable energy sources present in the system. A contribution of this work is analysis of the best places of the network for the allocation of batteries through sensitivity indexes from Lagrange multipliers. Another contribution is the assessment of the impact of representing the battery efficiency variation with its state of charge and current. A case study using a known system in the literature is performed to evaluate the proposed application. Index Terms: Storage system, distribution network, optimal planning, optimization.

Storage devices, as batteries, super capacitors and flywheel systems are being introduced or investigated to be added to modern electric distribution systems (EDS) for many reasons. Among them, it can be highlighted the increased growth of the distributed generation (DG) in an electrical network due to technical and environmental issues. The battery energy storage systems (BESS) aid the operation of renewable resource based DG within the concepts of smart grids, since such generation presents an intermittent behaviour over a planning period. The connection of a BESS into the electrical grid comprises some power electronic devices as power converters with relevant impact over some network requirements as the energy quality, the voltage and frequency levels, the power factor and the total harmonic distortion. Therefore, the output must be properly handled before being injected into the system. Moreover, there charging behaviour of a BESS is non-linear and the evaluation of such parameter is important for preserving the life time of the battery as well as too obtain a good quality signal at its output. Finally, some constraints of a dynamic model for a BESS are significant, as its output current, internal impedance and voltage between poles. A proper parameter setting of a BESS dynamic model can enable an efficient control strategy to improve the system operation. In the described scenario, the application of optimization approaches is potential to find a good setting for a BESS control in face of the EDS requirements. For instance, an optimization method is applied in [1] that seeks to obtain the optimum value of the Proportional-Integral-Derivative gains which reduce the steady state error. In the same line of research, the present paper proposes an optimization approach based on the metaheuristic known as Artificial Immune System (AIS). The objective is to obtain good parameters setting for a BESS that optimizes the voltage behaviour of the system output for improving the energy quality at the connection point with the grid. Constraints as the minimum and maximum SOC and recharging rate, as well as maximum output voltage overshooting are observed. [1] Hsiao, Y.-T., Chuang, C.-L. and Chien, C.-C. (2004).

In 2014, the average Price for Settling Differences (PLD) started January at R$ 378/MWh and was in February and March at the upper regulatory limit (R$ 822/MWh). During the same period, biomass generation increased by more than 70% in relation to the same quarter of 2013. In April 2017, the weekly PLD exceeded the level of R$ 300/MWh and this is indicating that it should remain higher than in 2016. Considering that the supply of biomass generation is not so inelastic in the short-term, this conjuncture could stimulate biomass generation. However, the regulatory scenario had the following changes that inhibit this extra generation: (i) the process of judicializing/default in financial settlements in the spot market (MCP); (ii) a large part of the biomass plants had no physical guarantee defined in a regulatory act in 2014/15 and started to have in 2017; (iii) even for the plants that had physical guarantees granted, a new methodology to review the ballast was instituted in 2017, also making it difficult to sell additional generation in contracts. The article presents the following proposal: allow that the monthly biomass generation can be sold in the form physical guarantee or contracts, avoiding positive exposure in the MCP.

Wind and hydro power plants are classified into renewable energy because they contribute to decrease the greenhouse effect. However, the power production by these sources depends on the climate variables like precipitation and wind which can be affected by climate changes. Most of expansion and operation studies carried out by the National Interconnected System (SIN) in Brazil use historical data of these variables and do not take into consideration the dynamics associated with climate changes. Thus, it is recommended to analyze such changes into the current operational planning, mainly because almost 90% of the power generation in Brazil comes from hydro and wind sources. Some studies prove the existence of the complementarity between wind and water sources in several regions of Brazil, through the analysis of historical wind and precipitation series. This paper analyses the wind and precipitation time series behavior and their correlation using both the historical and future data. The future data are the results from the Global Climate Models (GCM), based on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) with the current update of the last meeting in 2014. These are further transformed by downscaling to obtain a better resolution using the ETA regional model. The regional model ETA has been the main tool to produce weather and climate forecasts over South America since 1996 by the National Institute for Spatial Research (INPE).

The Human Development Index (HDI) is a benchmark used to rank countries through their "human development" degree. This index is also aided in the indication of countries as developed (very high human development), developing (medium and high human development) and underdeveloped (low human development). It is an important indicator of the benchmark for measuring the quality of life of people between countries. The level of energy consumption per capita is one of the components of the parameter list used, without calculating the HDI, being linked to people's energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary that the person has a condition of electric power, having a shower with heating through the electrical resistance, has a television set, among other resources that depend directly and indirectly on electricity. All countries with high HDI rates are consumers of large amounts of electricity. The per capita consumption of electricity, measured in kilowatt-hours per inhabitant per year (kWh/hab/year) in developed countries, as some variations, is considered as the minimum desirable parameter consumption 6,000 kWh/hab/ year. In Brazil, this figure is much lower and it is without a plateau of 2,200kWh/hab/year, that is, it is approximately one third of the minimum value necessary to achieve a good waste of HDI. In this way, to provide electric energy at affordable costs and visibly home environments. They are present in the agenda of the government plans of the Brazilian municipalities. In remote localities where low-income communities are located, local electricity generation based on the conversion of renewable primary energy sources, such as solar and wind, has become a key factor in favor of improving the regional HDI, therefore, incentives to should be implemented by the public power in partnership with the private sector. In this sense, the paper proposes to demonstrate that there is an opportunity to improve the HDI, with the application of the electrification of regions not served by the local energy matrix distribution system, which analyzes the feasibility of applying mixed structures through distributed systems microgeneration Photovoltaic and wind power plants. The researchers carried out a mapping of the regions that do not have energetic electrical within the Brazilian territory, as well as their climatic conditions, with the intention of proposing combined solutions that meet each region.

This work investigates the behavior of the topology of the wind turbine based on Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) when simulating faults in the stator and rotor machine terminations. A DFIG model was simulated in the Matlab / Simulink software using a voltage source with Thévenin equivalent to simulate an electrical network, an interface transformer, a 2MVA induction machine and two-level VSC voltage source converters connected in the back-toback topology. The control of the converters was conceived from the vector control strategy using PI controllers designed from the Symmetric Optimum Method. The crowbar protection and current protection of the inverters were also implemented in the simulation and then validated to simulate the approximate behavior of the real DFIG system and then to verify the transient behavior of the DFIG at the moment of single-phase, two-phase and three-phase faults at the machine terminals. The objective of this investigation is to discover information still scarce in the literature on the transient behavior of the DFIG topology, including the generating unit, cc link and converters at the moment of internal faults to the system. Index Terms: AC machines, circuit faults, simulation, transient behavior.

The proposed paper is concerned with protection schemes of wind turbines, mainly for protect the turbine from internal faults. The faults were applied in the converters’ terminals, i.e., in the stator and rotor side terminals. The paper begins with a control validation of an DFIG topology with back-to-back converter and MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking). Then, some protection devices, such as over-current, differential-current, over- and sub-voltage, power flow and crowbar protection are included in the model and tested over different machine operations mode, as well as fault conditions. The simulated system was modeled in Simulink and the protection algorithms in Matlab software. After the validation of the protection algorithms, they were co-simulated by PIL (Processor in the loop) with ARM Cortex M4 microcontroller. The objective of this investigation is to discover information, still scarce in the literature, on the transient behavior of the DFIG topology, including the generating unit, cc link and converters in the moment of internal faults, as well as discuss about the protection scheme algorithms.

Wind energy has been considered an attractive alternative for electricity generation. There are several studies in the literature on faults in wind farms. There is, however, a lack of research that includes internal faults in wind turbines. In this work the transient behaviour of a variable speed wind turbine with a synchronous generator is investigated. A computational model for the wind turbine was developed, using vector control techniques for back-to-back converter. The PI controller gains were adjusted using the symmetric optimum method. The DC chopper overvoltage protection and built-in over-current protec- tion of the converters were incorporated to the system, in order to obtain the closest possible behaviour of the real system in the simulation. Fault events were simulated at several points of the electrical system, varying the fault resistance and fault type, and also considering different wind incidences. This research aims to provide information on the transient behaviour of the wind turbine with synchronous machine, covering the internal components such as the electric generator, direct current link and power converters at the moment of internal faults to the system. Index Terms: Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG), simulation, internal faults, transient behavior.

Due wind intermittence, the wind turbine annual energy generation is far from theoretical one that arises from considering the nominal power of the turbine in the same period. That situation is quantified by the so called Capacity Factor (CF). It depends of wind and turbine characteristics. The CF is determinant for studies on feasibility and long term scenarios. Calculation programs use the CF as an exogenous datum and, in some cases, as a constant in wide regions. That induces –in some measure- rudimentary results. On the other hand, nowadays there is some registered evidence about changes in wind velocity, around the world and also in Patagonia. Then, the necessity of an accurate calculus for the CF over every specific region emerges for reducing errors in mentioned studies of feasibility and long term scenarios. Another problem is that –for CF calculus- it is necessary to use mean wind velocity at turbine height. That data is of very difficult obtaining. At present work we propose to calculate the CF for two regions in Argentina using wind data obtained from private individuals and for various power curves of wind turbines. Results will be compared with others from regional data in use. We also propose to compare the results with others calculated based on wind data at 10 m (supplied by national weather service). That will permit quantify errors originated in turbulences and ground roughness. Index Terms: Capacity factor, wind turbine, wind data, scenarios, Argentina.

07.017 Option Valuation of Solar Power Investments in an Office Building F. Penizzotto, R. Pringles, J. P. Martinez and F. Olsina Universidad Nacional de San Juan (UNSJ) y CONICET, San Juan, Argentina

Distributed renewable generation, such as rooftop solar photovoltaic, has grown exponentially in the past few years. Despite its benefits, investments in solar energy need to be encouraged in underdeveloped countries. More than 50% of Argentinian population lives and works in cities, which actually represent more than 80% of the energy demanded all over the country. In addition, 30% of this energy is consumed by buildings, where exist substantial saving opportunities through the use of photovoltaic panels and small wind turbines. The recent Argentinian Law 27.191 about the use of renewable energy, states that for the year 2025, 20% of electrical consumption must be provided by clean energy sources. One of the challenges, among many others more technical, that face self-generation decisions is about the economic benefits that this technology can provide, since uncertainty about important variables like feed-in tariffs, technology costs, and government policies is high. In this work, we have applied a modern economic method to evaluate a rooftop solar photovoltaic project investment in a government building in San Juan, Argentina (Civic Center of San Juan), in order to aid decision making. To consider uncertainties, we apply Monte Carlo simulation to achieve an stochastic option valuation. The option of “differing” the investment was taken into account. Therefore, the decision of “when” is the right moment to exercise the option of investing is answered after a real option analysis. Index Terms: Photovoltaic systems, power generation economics, forecast uncertainty, decision making, cost benefit analysis.

The objective of the project is to study and characterize the ocean wave energy resource in the southeast coastal area of the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. The incipient development in the country of this type of energy, the limited available information from official organisms and the complexity of the thematic, lead to the necessity of working with qualitative information derived from secondary sources. The study was restricted to the coastal area of the Buenos Aires province ounded y the parallels 35°00’S and 41°00’S where 10 years of o servations were carried out between the years 2000 and 2009. The information, provided by the Service of Naval Hydrography of the Ministry of Defense, was processed and validated according to a defined methodology for this case. This data was used to estimate the Significant Wave Height, the Mean Wave Period and the Annual Mean Power, for the analyzed decade. From the results obtained in the present work and considering the specific technical aspects it can be concluded that there is a potential wave energy resource in the studied region, and it would be technically feasible to use it for energy generation.

This paper presents an economic feasibility study of a possible implementation of a photovoltaic system at a Brazilian University, which is a consumer connected to medium voltage level. In this study, it is considered current electricity and equipment prices, as well as, applied taxes. A sensitivity analysis is performed to find the best size of the solar power generation to the university campus. Also, an additional study considering annual readjustment on electricity prices is performed to evaluate the sizing and investment return with a different economic perspective. This study considers net present value (VPL), internal rate of return (TIR) and payback period to evaluate the investment. Finally, a tax incentive program is proposed to lower prices of equipment, which boosts the investment return. The simulations results are promising and show clearly that the current legislation and incentives are having good effect. However, more incentive from the government would be considerably great to encourage even more consumers to invest in distributed small/medium scale renewable energy. Index Terms: Distributed power generation, photovoltaic systems, renewable energy sources, solar power generation, economic feasibility study, public university.

In recent years, photovoltaic energy use has been raising on the entire world, appearing among the largest sources of renewable energy generation, behind only of wind energy and hydroelectric power. In Brazil, even with all the favorable natural characteristics, this energy does not have much participation in the energy matrix. With measures to promote the use of the sun as a source of renewable energy generation, Brazil begins to see an increase in the exploitation of photovoltaic energy. This study sought to analyze the best moment to invest in a residential photovoltaic system, applying the Real Option Theory (ROT). The analysis were carried out through the estimated cash flow during the useful life of the photovoltaic system and the value of the project was calculated considering two premises, the immediate implantation of the system, or using the option to wait to invest in the following year, searching the best scenario for the investor. Traditional valuation methods such as net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR) and payback, as well as, the real options theory were used in this study as project evaluation methods. Index Terms: Real options, photovoltaic system, investment analysis, renewable energy, investment value.

In Brazil, crises in the water sector have been recurrent, and, taking into account that the generation of energy in Brazil is largely from generation in Hydropower Plants, and that the main function of water, according to the Agência Nacional das Águas - ANA is the human supply and the watering of animals, not the generation of energy, generation is a scenario where more than ever, incentives and investments in the diversification of the energy matrix are needed. Associated with this, we have the real insertion of the need to study and use alternative sources of energy, and of energy use from the industrial sector. Thus, this study aims to analyze and present solutions to improve the energy matrix in a proposal of distributed generation using the spaces and potential energy potential located in the industrial, rural and municipal sectors. For this, this work presents a possibility of building solar plants in degraded areas and the use of energy, coming from the water supply network, using pumps functioning as turbines to recover energy in the supply system. And present the results in order to try to classify them as to their environmental, energy and economic impacts, aiming to understand the implementation of these sources, and their importance for society as a whole.

In Brazil, in the next few years it is expected a great growth of the wind and photovoltaic solar on grid and off-grid generation as well. This diversification also begins to become a reality in the distribution, in the form of micro-generation, mainly solar photovoltaic. Among the various technologies available and emerging batteries, those using acid lead adapted for deep discharge still prevail competitively. However, these types of batteries have their performance affected by the sulfating process. This process reduces the useful life and can impact the viability of using this type of battery banks in the presence of intermittent sources. Sulfation also influences the state of charge of the battery, making it difficult to predict which energy can be stored and reused at a certain stage of battery life. Currently, the models used to represent the batteries are very simple and inaccurate. In this paper, we propose a solution using neural network to estimate the state of charge of lead acid battery banks, to have a more reliable estimation of the current stored energy available to take operational decisions in microgrids operation. As a case study, real data from an isolated microgrid from the north of Brazil is considered. Index Terms: Batteries, neural network, state of charge, microgrid. Book of Abstracts 74

The most favorable sites for the exploitation of oceanic energy are characterized by high current intensities and high average tide height, as well as adequate bathymetry and tide data. In Brazil, the greatest amplitudes and speeds of tide are in the north and northeast, in the states of Amapá, Pará and Maranhão. For example, the energy potential available on the coast of the State of Maranhão was estimated at 22 TWh / year. In terms of tidal currents, the São Marcos Bay in Maranhão and the channel of Varador in Amapá should be highlighted. However, Brazil does not yet have an inventory with the potential of tidal currents. This article deals with the optimal design of a micro power plant based on tidal current energies. In order to ensure reliable power supply to the isolated system, a storage system must be taken into account. Considering the variation of the sea currents as well as the energy demand curve, the problem is formulated as a multi-period nonlinear optimization problem. As a case study, it is considered a place located in the Bay of São Marcos (Maranhão), more specifically in the channel of the island of Medo. Through the in-situ data the available energy potential curve is obtained. The physical, environmental and economic constraints of the problem to be optimized are identified and formalized. Index Terms: Oceanic energy, tidal currents, insulated system, optimal design, storage system.

The present study had as objective to carry out the quantitative survey of the residues in the municipality of Lages-SC, and to evaluate the economic viability of slow pyrolysis with rotary drum in the municipality to generate electricity, since the health services wastes are now transported to the West of the State and after the sterilization of these in autoclave, is available in Class I and II landfills. By means of an economic analysis, it was verified that there is the impossibility due to the costs of the Group A residue being very low, reducing the time of return of the investment of the pyrolysis unit, in which it would take 25 years for the recovery, making it unfeasible due to the Long-term return to investors. It is analyzed that with the treatment capacity of 2 tons/day which would generate 50 kWe, and is similar to the production of the municipality, it would be necessary to raise the waste treatment price to twice the current price, which is 0,83R$/liter and would have to be 1.86R$/liter to occur viability in 2 years.

The provision of frequency and voltage reference on isolated microgrids is realized through diesel generators, which have some disadvantages, such as loud noise generation, emission of harmful gases, fossil fuel consumption, etc. The proposal of this article is an alternative to the use of these generators, using a energy storage system, a frequency inverter, and a DC-DC bidirectional buck-boost quadratic converter and an appropriate control. The inverter control strategy proposed in this paper to establish reference to a microgrid is based on the virtual synchronous generator control for inverters to mimic the behavior of traditional synchronous machines. This article presents a modeling made on EMTDC/PSCAD of a microgrid including local loads, battery system, DC-DC converters, power inverters, wind turbine and solar array located at Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo - BR. The results prove the efficiency of the adopted control, maintaining the voltage and frequency of the microgrid constant during load changes, as well as providing active and reactive power balance to the isolated system.

07.031 Assessment of Flexible Investments in Solar-Photovoltaic Generation R. Pringles, F. Penizzotto and F. Olsina Instituto de Energía Eléctrica, UNSJ-CONICET, Argentina

Risk management is a key concept when deciding investments in electricity markets. Power investment projects are capital-intensive, largely irreversible and subject to high uncertainties on future returns. Fortunately, most projects have strategic flexibilities embedded to manage uncertainties and mitigate risks under unfavorable market scenarios. Modern corporate finance recognizes Real Option analysis (ROA) as the correct approach for valuing investment projects with these features. Because of environmental concerns and fuel price escalations, power generation based on renewable sources has shown a dramatic global growth in the last decade. Argentina has recently established aggressive support policies for meeting ambitious renewable targets. Renewable investment projects share many of the mentioned characteristics. Hence, option valuation methods can be applied for appraising the monetary worth of managerial flexibility embedded in renewable power investments. In this work, a methodology for assessing the economic value of a photovoltaic power plant under uncertainty is presented. ROA is applied to determine the monetary value of delaying the investment decision in order to wait for better market information and for cost abatements due to technological development. In addition, the economic value of relocating the solar power plant in the future to a more attractive site in terms of costs, grid access and/or regulatory policies is also considered. The option valuation problem is solved by means of stochastic simulation combined with recursive approximate dynamic programing techniques. The developed methodology can be used by investors for efficient decision making and by regulatory agencies for designing proper support policies to encourage investments in renewable generation.

This paper proposes a methodology to identify the repetition of the wind series over the years. The approach is based on the portfolio selection of wind power generation projects proposed in Miguel's thesis. The main contribution of the work is the use of windows of short time, which avoids the need for an old data history, ie, the historical data of the wind do not affect the result of the portfolios when applying the proposed method. Thus, it is possible to provide subsidies to the generator to decide future investments from energy generation data and the latest wind maps. The methodology takes into account limited financial resources and is based on the use of Markowitz's theory. A relevant contribution of this proposal is its ability to minimize costs, thanks to the use of more recent measures that allow the analysis of geographical areas, which were not considered previously because they do not have an old data history. The paper presents relevant results that show the feasibility and effectiveness of the present proposal.

The increase of solid waste generation is a concern for modern society because its incorrect disposal can lead to risks to public health and pollution of the environment. Landfills are the most used method for Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) disposal in Brazil, and they generate by-products such as biogas that can be exploited and used to produce bioelectricity. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the use of fossil fuels by generating equivalent amount of electricity and reducing emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG). This work aimed to study the use of biogas generated in landfills located in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, as a source of renewable energy, analyzing the technical aspects and economic viability of bioelectricity generation using an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) and a Gas Turbine (GT). This study showed that the three landfills can generate about 41 MW of bioelectricity with ICE or 39.3 MW with GT. It also proved the use of biogas from landfills to be an economically viable approach to generate bioelectricity.

This paper presents the results of an investigation about the photovoltaic (PV) generation effects on the protection of distribution power systems. For this, a distribution test system is implemented in a computational environment, where all the components of the power system and PVs under analysis are modeled. The PVs models are included in different points of the grid and three-phase and single-phase faults are simulated. Thus, it is possible to analyze the contribution of DG to the short-circuit currents and how much it impacted in the relay's response. In addition, the voltage levels at the DGs coupling bus is also monitored to verify the voltage minimum requirements defined by power distribution companies for the connection into the grid. The signals obtained in the simulations are converted to COMTRADE format and loaded into a current and voltage injection test equipment, thus allowing the analysis of the performance of a protective relay with and without DG. Index Terms: Distribution power system, distributed generation, photovoltaic, protection relay, overcurrent, undervoltage.

Increasing installation of grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) energy systems demand more accurate prediction of their operational performance. Argentina has prompted the research that aims to establish the relationships between output efficiencies and weather parameters. The direct use of efficiency figures quoted y PV manufacturers, normally based on measurements taken in clean laboratory environments of 25°C and at standard air density, is often not appropriate as field studies have demonstrated the actual outputs could be reduced by as much as 60% in dusty or polluted climate without regular cleaning. The experimental investigations and case study took place in the city of Mar del Plata in the southeast of Argentina. First, outdoor field measurements were taken and then a statistical evaluation of weather parameters and system outputs from the actual PV installation was produced for a whole year. The results obtained are then compared with irradiation data provided by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and deviations between those estimations and experimental data is presented.

This paper is focused on the study of fluid dynamic behavior of mixtures of the sugarcane bagasse particles and quartz sand in a transparent fluidized bed column. The minimum fluidization velocity (Vmf) was determined through different means particles diameter and different mass fractions in the mixtures compositions. The values of (Vmf) of the mixture increased while increasing the size and quantity of biomass particles in the binary mixture in the range of diameter of 9.5 mm < dpb < 0.225 mm. Binary mixtures with diameter ratios iomass/sand ≤ 1 had a (Vmf) almost constant as a function of mass fraction of biomass. It is suggested a practical upper limit of biomass fraction in the mixtures less than 5% of the overall bed mass to obtain a good mixing and uniform distribution in the bed. New correlations were developed to predict the values of (Vmf). It was found that the present proposed correlation predicted the (Vmf) for binary mixtures of sugarcane bagasse and sand particles in a more accurate form than other correlations reported in the literature.

The accuracy of the line parameters are importance for the setting of line protection relays and for accurate systems studies. Assessment line parameters by measurements is usual part of the commissioning tests. These parameters are calculated from electrical magnitudes which are measured in tests. In both, measurement and calculation stages the procedure raises some difficulties. An important issue is the electromagnetic coupling with other lines that operate the power frequency. These interferences affect the measurement when the tests is in the same frequency. There are on the market test equipment that avoid this error by estimating the impedances from measurements made at different, but near, frequencies. They are based on power electronics and digital processing to filter the interference. The IEE-UNSJ-CONICET institute has undertaken a development based on this approach. The main concepts, as well as the first results, are shown in the paper. The paper also addresses the procedure for calculating line parameters from the measurement. There is currently no well- established procedure for this task. The methodology usually applied is based on the simplification that result in errors, especially for long lines. An iterative procedure has been developed to avoid this source of error. Index Terms: High voltage line, parameters, measurement, electrical environment.

Backflashovers (BFs) are one of the main causes of faults leading to outages in power systems. In this context, the tower-footing impedance plays a key role in overvoltages caused by lightning stricking at the towers. Then a low tower-footing impedance is desirable for reducing BFs. Typically, tower-footing impedance is made by long electrodes in different shapes and orientation buried in soil. Grounding impedance has been evaluated by many models and numeric methods in frequency and time domain, which the electrode is represented by its lumped or distri uted parameter models. It has een also used numerical methods for solving Maxwell’s equations applied in the electrode geometry. In this paper, the impedances of two electrodes, buried vertically and horizontally at different soils, are calculated in frequency domain by Distributed Parameter Transmission Line Theory (DPTLM) and by numerical Method of Moments (MoM). These impedances are represented by an electric circuit, obtained by Vector Fitting technique, directly in time domain. Finally, a lightning strike is applied at each electrode and the Grounding Potential Rise is calculated and compared by DPTLM and MoM. Index Terms: Backflashover, electromagnetic transients, grounding impedance, lightning, overvoltages.

09.006 Power Swing Detection to the Distance Relay Blocking based on Mean Error of Periodic Functions C. Lazaro, C. V. Dias, L. Zapata and G. Cardoso Jr. Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM), Santa Maria, RS, Brasil

It’s proposed a new methodology to lock distance relays under power swing. The method is based on the comparison of the voltage signal with periodic signals, requiring simple adjustments which doesn’t need intensive studies over power electrical system. It is used the Mean Square Error concept of time periodic signals in relation to the sampled voltage signal with the objective of block in power swing e unblock in fault during power swing. In other words, the voltage signal is compared to signals generated by a periodic function, usually used in the electric engineering field, such as sinusoidal, triangular and sawtooth. The proposed methodology presents as main advantage in relation to the conventional methods its capacity to identify faults during power swing events. The method was tested in several scenarios, varying the oscillation frequency, the loading angle and the fault distance, verifying its efficiency when compared to the other methods used to the same purpose. As differential, it was verified the good performance under any range of swing frequencies, fault applied distance and response time about 2 cycles of 60Hz.

09.007 Studies of Electrical Interference of High-Voltage Power-Lines Over Pipelines A. Chavarro Consultoría Colombiana S.A, Bogotá, Colombia

This article presents the application of models that identify and analyze the effect of the movement of electrical currents of a high voltage transmission line, that operates under normal conditions or under regimen of failure, which generates an electromagnetic field on parallel buried pipes which are located in its proximity, inducing voltages and currents whose magnitude depends on several factors , which include: the conditions of the approach, the magnitude and gap of currents in the line, the electrical characteristics of the pipe and its coating. The model considers that phases are not equidistant to the pipeline, which in normal regime arises a small induced voltage (tens of volts) which can generate electromagnetic compatibility problems on computers connected to the pipeline system, and electrical shock to staff in contact with it; while in fault regime, where high currents and at the same time the maximum imbalance arise the voltages induced in this situation may be high (in the kV range) and may cause damage to equipment (cathodic protection), perforation of the coating, breakdowns in the line and staff security issues eventually this in contact with the pipe.

09.008 Método Intervalar de Fluxo de Potência baseado na Expansão Completa em Série de Taylor L. M. Quintanilha e V. M. da Costa Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF), Juiz de Fora, MG, Brasil

The growth of intermittent sources participation, such as wind and solar, into power grids has increased the need of power flow studies that deal with the considerable uncertainties associated to them. The Taylor inclusion function, which transform the power flow nonlinear equations with interval variables into the solution of three equations, can be efficiently used. This come only because when using rectangular coordinate system to express the set of variables, there is no higher order term than the second one in Taylor series expansion. In this sense, this paper investigates a method that it is not necessary to include interval numbers and operations into Newton iterative method, what leads to accurate results. It is proved by several tests comparing results from the proposed method, regular interval power flow and Monte Carlo simulation. The results are also compared to the ones from a system with larger loads. Index Terms: Interval mathematics, electrical power systems, interval power flow, taylor inclusion function, uncertainties.

09.011 A Comparative Analysis of Differential Protection Methods for UHV Transmission Lines L. Zapata, A. C. Marchesan, G. Cardoso, A. P. de Morais and C. Lazaro Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM), Santa Maria, RS, Brasil

The capacitance of the transmission lines arises a current, which appears mainly due to the increase of the voltage and the size of the lines. The problem is that being non-physical cannot be measured and estimation methods are needed to compensate it in protection systems. This work intends to compare some methods that exist to calculate and to compensate the effect of the capacitance of the Ultra High Voltage lines in the line differential protections. This comparison is performed in the alpha plane, which presents significant advantages compared to the traditional differential plane. These algorithms are evaluated in a system with two and three terminals, under different operating conditions that can be presented in the network as internal, external faults and energizations. The results showed that the four analyzed methods presented adequate responses to the conditions evaluated, and the best method was that based on the product of the capacitance by the voltage at the terminals of the line. Index Terms: Alpha plane, charging current, line differential protection, UHV transmission lines.

The loss of electrical and mechanical strength of polymeric insulators start as soon as they are put in operation in the electrical field of high voltage transmission lines due to the aging caused by thestrong electric field, mechanical load of the weight of electrical conductor cables, vibrations, weathering, accumulation of pollutants containing salts, Corona discharge, acid generation. The two main critical failures of the polymeric insulators are the mechanical failure of GFRP by the brittle fracture and/or electric breakdown known as flashover due to the loss essentially of the hydrophobicity and build-up of pollutants. Among the new technologies for inspection of internal and hidden defects in polymeric insulators related to the brittle fracture, is the radiography with ionizing radiation, but in the high and the extra-high voltage transmission lines, X-rays or γ-rays can drastically reduce the voltage breakdown voltage due to the combined effects of air ionization and the Townsend discharge mechanisms. At present work, experimental results of testing aiming to evaluate the combined effect of air ionization around polymeric insulators of 500 kV induced by X-ray at different distance and up to 640 kV are presented and discussed.

10.001 Analysis of the implementation of new HVDC links in the Argentine Interconnection System (SADI) L. Casterás and F. Muiño Universidad Tecnológica Nacional - Facultad Regional Buenos Aires (UTN-FRBA), Buenos Aires, Argentina

The Argentine territory and therefore the Argentine Interconnection System (SADI) has the peculiarity of having a large extension and the demand for energy is mainly concentrated in a small portion. The generation is installed where there are primary sources of energy and in regions of Low demand, so these usually have the characteristics of being highly exporting areas such as Comahue, NEA and NOA and be at a great distance from the centers of consumption. As for SADI demand, two- thirds of it is concentrated in the GBA area, the Province of Buenos Aires and the south of the Coastal area. At the same time it is studied that the growth of the total demand of the country is at 4% per annum, which will require an incipient analysis and execution of new generation projects to supply it. There are studies of exploitation of hydraulic resources and of renewable energies that must be taken into account for the growth of the generating park, which have identical characteristics of remoteness with the centers of consumption. Along with the growth of the installed power will be necessary the expansion of the transmission and distribution network to link the generation with the consumption fulfilling parameters of quality and continuity of the supply. This motivates to think of the HVDC transmission as a viable alternative for such a connection because it has technical and economic advantages compared to the conventional transmission in alternating current, when trying to transmit large levels of power over great distances. In the following work we analyze different possibilities considering this advantage: 1) Energy export from the Comahue area to GBA, 2) Energy exports from the NEA area to GBA and 3) Export of energy from the Patagonian area to GBA. Then taking into account additional advantages of the HVDC transmission, since this type of link does not increase the short-circuit power at the nodes between which it is connected and the property of having lower losses because there is no reactance in the busway, they are analyzed Two possible projects: 4) Exportation of the GBA area to the Ezeiza node of Central Costanera and 5) Interconnection of the SADI with Tierra del Fuego through an HVDC submarine link crossing the Strait of Magellan. A description of the generation projects considered in each case is made and a methodology is developed to determine a ranking that allows to distinguish the projects that are more convenient to build with their due justification and conclusions.

The dimensioning of a modular multilevel converter’s electrical components is an important stage of its project. Besides affecting the converter’s performance, under- or overdimensioned elements could cause higher operation or construction expenditure. Thus, this article presents a comparison between three particular methods for determining the arm inductance and the submodule capacitance of a Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) in terms of circulating current magnitude, su module voltage ripple, and controller’s performance. The three design approaches are applied to a High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) transmission system consisting in two terminals linked by a long-distance transmission line, simulated through the software PLECS R . The results showed that the dimensioning method did not significantly influence the converter’s controller’s per- formance, except that of the DC voltage control; on the other hand, there were differences concerning circulating currents and su modules’ voltage ripples. Index Terms: HVDC transmission, modular multilevel converters, power conversion.

The world is presently facing an energy crisis, which leads to a paradigm change in the traditional electric systems: the distribution of the energy sources. These sources, being the photovoltaic (PV) one of them, are in general of much smaller size, their behavior in front of faults is different, behavior influenced by temperature and its dispatchability depends on weather conditions. PV cells have special characteristics that require protective devices specifically designed for this application, among which the fuse presents optimum features. Due to the high number of PV cell combined, the terminals rated voltage is of the order of kilovolts, with fault currents that are significantly increased. The electrical energy obtained from the conversion should be transformed into 50 or 60 Hz a.c., requiring of an inverter. The equipment can includes storage batteries, for what important values of inverse current can be presented. The gPV class fuse represents a fuse specially designed to protect photovoltaic cells. The main differences, requirements and challenges for fuses to be applied in distribution systems with PV generation are analysed. The need for more coordinated work between PV cells and fuses manufacturers is stressed, indicating the areas where this work is required.

The world is presently facing a deep energy crisis, and the electric energy is one of the affected types. The conflicting situation in which more electric power is required everywhere leads to a paradigm change in the traditional electric systems. The energy sources are connected where the energy is available. During the last 50 years the installation sizes are dramatically changing, significantly increasing the fault currents, thus fault currents are already beginning to overcome the breaking capacities of the involved equipment, for what becomes necessary to control such a current y using “current limiters”. Here, the limiters history is descri ed explaining mainly their operation principles and significant characteristics. Technological advances allow adding new types of limiters with very innovative operation principles, which have today diverse development states from pilot stage until equipment already established in the market. It is concluded that the peculiar characteristics of the actual distribution systems with high DG penetration level, demand the use of fault current limiters designed especially for this protection, showing that even more research and development work on limiters seems to be necessary. It is indicated the necessity of a bigger joint work of the distribution systems operators and limiters manufacturers.

This paper presents an analysis of the magnetic coupling influence between different feeders that share the same pole or run parallel paths together on different poles in a unbalanced distribution network. For this, an algorithm based on the Backward/Forward Sweep Method capable of handling this magnetic coupling is developed and presented. The influence of the magnetic coupling is analyzed for some different constructional characteristics, such as the length of the sections of the distribution feeders that have mutual coupling, the separation distance between the conductors and their phase sequences and geometry in the poles. Two modified IEEE test feeders are used to simulate and comparisons are made considering and not considering the magnetic coupling representation. The results show the need to represent this mutual coupling in power flow analyzes, especially under certain conditions.

The use of distributed generation (DG) has become a promising solution to the challenges inherent in modern energy distribution systems (EDSs). This type of generation can be obtained from several renewable sources for environmental sustainability, such as solar, wind and biomass. Another factor that encourages DG penetration is a conversion and injection of energy into an electric grid close to its load, which reduces the technical losses. The present work proposes an application of a method to solve the problem of optimal allocation of solar and wind based DG in EDS through the Harmony Search (HS) meta- heuristic. The optimization model is proposed to determine the locations and types of DGs that minimize the total investment and operational costs, which include costs of technical loss and gas emission. A case study with a wellknow system is performed to assess the proposed application. Index Terms: Distributed generation, harmony search, optimization, planning, renewable generation.

Microgrids are changing the perception of the traditional distribution power systems. This concept allows the creation of systems islands able to operate regardless of the main grid, with some sort of controls required, when circumstances lead to the network failure. In this sight, this paper presents a static-dynamic analysis of the islanding, islanded operation and reconnection processes of microgrids with different levels of control. Therefore, an IEEE 34 bus modified system presenting local distributed generation sources was considered and the islanding, operation and reconnection processes analyzed. In addition, to ensure consistency of results, simulations were performed for a variety of microgrid scenarios considering different levels of control. The results shown that microgrids possessing only primary control are able to perform the islanding and reconnection processes within satisfactory conditions for slight variations of generation/demand. This scenario is enhanced when a secondary control methodology is presented, maintaining the system operation at desirable conditions for higher rates of generation/demand variations.

Diesel generating systems are used in remote areas due to uncertain or non-existent supply and in locals where no power outage can occur due to priority costumers. However, the operation of diesel generators has a high cost and is responsible for the emission of polluting gases. One of the solutions capable of mitigating the impacts of this electric energy generation is the implementation of hybrid systems with the inclusion of photovoltaic (PV) panels. A PV/diesel hybrid system has great complexity and an optimal solution must be found for balancing the generation of these two sources. In face of the several options for the decision about the generation from different energy resources, the application of optimization methods is attractive to establish a suitable trade-off between objectives and constraints, leading to an operation with efficiency and economic sustainability. Therefore, the paper proposes an approach for the optimization of the design for a PV/diesel power generation system. The objective is reduce the cost of a microgrid implementation through the optimal sizing of the hybrid generation system with a focus on reliability. Moreover, in order to verify the real cost of the microgrid, the commercial HOMER® software is used for simulating the test system.

This work presents the development of a computer tool for locating short-circuit fault in rural electricity distribution systems. The calculation is based on the analysis of the fault impedance assuming that it is purely resistive. The implemented methodology proposes to determine mathematically the impedance of failure as a function of a variable distance knowing the measures of voltage and current of pre-failure and fault taken in the head of the distributor. The tool is validated by modeling a distributor belonging to an electric power cooperative in a power system simulation program. In the same program different types of short-circuits are simulated to extract the necessary data of entry to the developed algorithm, which estimates the possible points of failure. The presentation of the results in a graphical network environment offers operators a quick interpretation of the possible locations of the fault, which results in a reduction in repair times and an improvement in the quality of the electric service. The results show errors of the order of 5% in the actual location distance of the fault.

Load balancing implies avoiding overloads and leads to greater reliability for system operation. A mixed binary nonlinear mathematical programming model is used in conjunction with the applied decomposition technique. A test system is used to verify the proposed technique, this system being well known in the literature.

12.017 Adjustment and Operation of Banks Capacitors Using Three-phase Representation A. R. Baran Junior, R. A. Borba and T. S. Piazza Fernandes Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR), Curitiba, PR, Brasil

Given the complexity of the distribution networks, there is a tendency to no longer use the simplified monophasic representation of the system (the erroneous consideration that the network is symmetrical and balanced), but to use the three-phase representation, which is more consistent with the realities of distribution networks of 13,8 kV and 34,5 kV. This work focuses on the influence that the three-phase representation has on the capacitor bank (CB) adjustments and its operation. For this, this paper uses a Three-Phase OPF that allows the dimension of the CB for the three phases or for each one of the three phases individually. This additional scaling can ensure the satisfaction of voltage limits when the load unbalance is accentuated. Besides, as the load varies throughout the day, this work also proposes to analyze the operation of automatic CB using three-phase networks. The parameterization of load and operation of automatic CBs was extended to three-phase networks. Thus, this work also parameterizes unbalanced threephase loads throughout a day, to establish switching of three-phase CBs. The results show that the operation of the CBs differ using single-phase and three-phase representation when severe load unbalance is simulated. The simulations and analysis will be presented using IEEE- 34 and IEEE-123 buses. Index Terms: Three-phase optimal power flow, operation of banks capacitors, three-phase representation, monophasic representation, load unbalance.

12.018 Eventos que Impactam nas Perdas não Técnicas de um Sistema de Distribuição de Energia Elétrica P. A. Brasil Vieira dos Santos, R. E. Lopes e C. B. Martinez Electricity Distri ution Networks have energy losses classified as “technical” and “nontechnical” losses. Technical losses are related to electric energy dissipation in several parts in the system such as in the distribution, transforming and points of supply, and are inherent to the process, i.e. cannot be prevented by the Distribution Network Operators. The so called nontechnical losses are caused by events such as metering errors, billing errors and energy theft. The sum of those losses may significantly impact the technical / commercial system and constantly concerns the Distribution Network Operators. Technical losses are regularly tracked and monitored to be maintained within acceptable standards, i.e. they are variables that can be controlled and can be fixed as soon as detected. Nevertheless, non-technical losses are difficult to resolve ecause they are caused y deli erate actions of consumers or mistakes of the Operators’ employees. Losses due to energy theft cannot be predicted by the Operators. However, they can be mapped and resolved per administrative or legal actions. The grave difficulty to identify frauds in those cases is related to preventive measures done by the consumers, as they are aware of their illegal action. This paper presents accounts e discovered facts about energy metering frauds that ended up in legal suits filed after frustrated attempts of resolution in the administrative level. The Study is embodied by data captured in judicial investigation executed in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais State (Brazil), focused in the main fraud strategies, recorded across one decade. The reported events are classified according to the amount of diverted energy, per industry and residences. The most significant employees’ errors in fraud identification Book of Abstracts 102

The high level of connection of photovoltaic panels in the distribution network causes voltage problems, such as bus overvoltage, voltage deviations and unbalances. These variations are observed in two situations, in the period in which the panels are in the maximum generation but with low load demand and when the battery unload the energy to the system. As the majority panels are installed on residential roofs, connected directly to the system, will be analyzed the maximum penetration levels of panels that can be connected to a residential distribution system without compromising the power quality, this indicator is known as hosting capacity of photovoltaic panels. The studies will be conducted using OpenDSS software. This paper presents the results of battery association simulations to minimize the problems due to the voltage deviations in a balanced system of 70 buses and how much is possible increase the hosting capacity with association of battery.

Demand Side Management (DSM) has been traditionally seen as a mean of reducing peak electricity demand. In this article, we will verify if these programs based on DSM are beneficial for the electric power distribution companies in accordance with the Brazilian legislation in force. In addition, we propose a methodology to evaluate DSM in electric distribution systems, analyzing the benefits and limitations of the implementation of DSM programs through differentiated tariffs, identifying which would be the impacts generated to the electric power systems, in particular to the electric power distribution systems. In particular, the analysis will e focused on a differentiated tariff modality recently implemented on Brazil, called the “white tariff”, which delimits hourly (off-peak, off-peak and intermediate) times for consumers served at low voltage. Index Terms: Demand side management, electricity distribution, energy efficiency, power efficiency, power system.

The increase in network monitoring have raised the complexity of the power distribution system restoration problem, demanding higher efforts to find good-quality solutions. This paper presents results of a new self-healing methodology developed in an R&D Brazilian project, in which the objective is to minimize an objective function constructed with several criteria (detailed in the paper). The developed methodology is being tested using real distribution networks and has presented appropriate performance on real-time applications. The switching operation sequence must be carried out avoiding energizing maintenance sections and fault areas and, also, it must comply with operational constraints in accordance with the utility operating policy. All the needed data is prepared in off-line mode, prior to possible faults, using a feeder neighborhood concept, and one have as many files as there are target feeders. These data are kept up-to-date so that if a fault occurs, the target feeder is identified and the self-healing process is started at once. The proposed self-healing methodology is also used as a function within a switch allocation program that is also part of the R&D project. Therefore, this paper also presents details of these developments, including tests carried out in real distribution networks.

Electric Power Distribution Systems (EPDS) has been evolving rapidly due to the requirements of meeting quality standards and the advent of new technologies within the Smart Grid concepts. Distributed generation and resilient operation in the form of microgrids pose new challenges for technology and analytical tools, forcing to abandon some simplifying assumptions. A fundamental analysis tool of EPDS is the load flow, which has traditionally been solved using algorithms derived from Newton-Raphson method and in simpler cases using sweep based methods. In this article, the methodologies currently in use are analyzed and discussed, identifying aspects that can increase the efficiency and reliability of the load flow methods when applied to modern distribution networks. An adaptive strategy for the fast-decoupled algorithm is suggested and tested to better deal with the particularities of the new distribution networks, such as distributed generation, closed loop operation, among others. The proposed algorithm was validated using two test networks of 6 and 19-bus, showing good performance when compared to conventional approaches.

12.027 Voltage Unbalance Reduction in Large Distribution Consumers by Coordinated Charging of Electrical Vehicles G. I. M. Silva, P. A. Guaracy, G. S. Gomes, B. H. Dias, L. W. Oliveira and T. T. Borges Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora (UFJF), Juiz de Fora, MG, Brasil

One of the main characteristics of Low Voltage (LV) distribution systems is the voltage unbalance in distribution feeders due to typical unbalanced loads. The massive presence of electrical vehicles (EV) connected in a single phase can increase this problem. The main drawbacks of the voltage unbalance are related to losses, voltage sags and energy quality. Moreover, unbalance might occur significantly in large consumers especially considering that a set of electric vehicles could be connected uncoordinated in the same region. Shopping malls, supermarkets industries and condominiums could be among those consumers, especially if a recharge station is offered, paid or free of charge. This paper proposes the evaluation of large consumers phase balancing through a coordinated charging of EVs. In order to achieve this purpose, a simulation is held with a system that measures the current unbalance in a fixed time interval. Then, it can define the phase which the next EV that arrives at the shopping center should be connected and assist the system balance. Index Terms: Electric vehicles, distribution systems, phase unbalance, charge coordination, energy quality.

This article proposes a model to analyze the non- technical energy losses of a distribution system in order to evaluate the INFRACTOR’S POTENCIALITY INDEX -IPI- for different types of clients, by the implementation of a set of procedures and analysis to the users’ invoicing of homogenous groups, based on probabilistic methodologies, specifically, on the Bayesian decision theory; using the historic commercial data base of consumption of all types of users, separating those who have had fraud historically and who haven’t had. The index lets us define an indicator of the level of potentiality for each user has been infractor, therefore, it lets us set a procedure to identify infractors. The selected users with this methodology can have physical fraud by energy counter or electrical connection intervention; or bad invoiced users as well, due to issues in the invoicing process. The IPI model determinates four big groups of users with different features: Users with High IPI - Fraudulent, Users with very low consumption in relation to the average of the group – Caused possibly by invoicing issues, Users with no consumption – Invoicing issues, Users with very high consumption in relation to the average of the group - Invoicing issues.

The future and inevitable depletion of non- renewable energy has boosted research in optimization for other energy sources, such as electrical energy from renewable sources. Electrical distribution systems have amounts of disconnecting device switches sufficient to entail problems of combinatorial explosion when wants to modify the system topology to optimize it or eliminate contingencies. Reconfiguration of switches is more attractive optimization technique when compared to other expensive optimization methods, such as capacitive bank, rewiring, distributed generation or installation of voltage transformers. A heuristic computational method based on equation of motion of the firefly is introduced in order to optimize the distribution of electric energy, minimizing waste by Joule effect. By discretization, the positions of the insects in space are related to switches positions in the electrical system, reducing the search space. A real electrical system with 110 buses and 114 lines was employed in computer simulation. Due to your size, it becomes practically infeasible your reconfiguration by means of exhaustive search methods. The proposed algorithm, by means of a reduced search space containing 8000 vectors of switch states, located in the solutions which the losses are 53,5% smaller than in the original configuration of the system employed.

Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are a new type of load connected to the distribution networks, at medium and low voltage levels. As the number of PEVs increase, the utilities may be required to perform reinforcements to adapt the networks to the new demand. In this paper, a model is proposed to estimate the investments required for adapting the Brazilian networks and the associated economic impacts. This model considers the rate of adhesion of PEVs in the coming years, the increasing efficiency, and projection of the electric energy demanded by the recharges. The estimations are calculated in investment stages and oriented according to utilities’ tariffreview cycles, resulting in an investment schedule for the adequacy of the networks. It is done by utility or in an aggregated way for utilities responsible for the Brazilian main cities. In the basic scenario of PEV adhesion, the investment amount for the sector up to 2030 is estimated in US$ 9.3 to 23 million. In a relative way, the amount of investment means only US$ 0.29 to US$ 0.72 per consumer. If a Time-of-Use tariff is applied, the investment per customer can be reduced to US$ 0.11 to US$ 0.31.

This paper proposes an approach to solve the load balance (LB) problem which is typical at the low voltage side of a three-phase electrical installation. The approach is based on the application of the metaheuristic optimization algorithm named as Harmony Search (HS) to deal with the combinatorial and integer programming related to LB. A practical constraint established by the Brazilian Standard - NBR5410 of the Brazilian Technical Standard Association - ABNT is considered. The load balance by harmony search (LBHS) is applied to a real case of a residential building. The experiments and results by applying the LBHS method demonstrate its promising use for correction of possible unbalance of loads at the low voltage side of the electric network.

New insulating oils were developed by fermenting sugarcane juice and obtaining a base oil made up of β-farnasene (C15H24). One of the two types of such oils (Evoshield XFo3), and a reference mineral insulating oil (Ergon Hyvolt II) were aged in the laboratory during 21 days at 120 ºC both with air bubbling through the oils at a flow speed of 0.15 l/h, and with no air bubbling. Evoshield XFo3 performed better as compared with Ergon Hyvolt II taking into consideration all the tests conducted. To confirm such preliminary results, transformer prototypes were built to assess the performance of Evoshield XFo3 under another laboratory accelerated aging condition. Regular Kraft, thermally upgraded Kraft, and Nomex were used as paper insulation. Transformer prototypes were aged during 21 days at 130 ºC. Evoshield XFo3 presented a compatible performance as compared with that observed for Ergon Hyvolt II. Index Terms: Accelerated aging, insulating paper, sugarcane based insulating oil, transformer.

For protection applications, which are the subject of this paper, the specification of the characteristics of an adequate CT must consider the transient behavior and the possibility of saturation of it's magnetic core during a short-circuit event. This paper presents a graphical interface developed by the authors, which makes use of ATP (Alternative Transient Program) to model the current transformer considering it's transformation ratio, connected burden, voltage level, system X/R, precision class and, when available, the saturation characteristic curve. To account for the cases where the saturation curve has not been experimentally determined, an approximative saturation curve was developed, based on the CT precision class or on it's knee voltage. In a practical and agile way, the proposed interface allows visualizing the currents on the primary and on the secondary (reflected on the primary), aiding the technical team with the determination of the most adequate transforming ratio and precision class to be used in a given CT application, in order to assure correct measuring by protection equipment and, therefore, safer decision making by protection relays.

The Voltage Regulator (RT) is widely used in the distribution grid and, as its name suggests, it regulates the mains voltage by means of a tap change with the function of maintaining the supply voltage to the consumers within the levels established by the Agency National Electric Power of Brazil. There are other methods of voltage regulation, through static compensators, load balancing in the feeders, primary voltage elevation, but the electromechanical RT has a good regulation performance and has been used since the 1940s, being known worldwide. Although there is RT technology with electronic tap, and its operation is faster and more accurate, its representativeness in the distribution system is still small. During the tap change process, there are electrical arcs in the main contacts and because they are costly and wearing components proportional to the number of maneuvers, these equipments are often already designed with a reactor in parallel with the main contact. The present article proposes an improvement project in the RTs with electromechanical taps, already existing in the distribution system, applying resistors for an additional protection of the main contacts in order to extend its useful life.

The supply of electricity by an electrical energy distribution system (EDS) must be evaluated from some aspects that include the continuity and security, which is a challenge for the utilities. In this sense, maintenance programs are developed for EDS and are periodically performed aiming at improving the system reliability and avoiding outages. Moreover, corrective procedures are planned in case of unexpected failures. The present paper proposes an optimization approach to determine preventive and corrective maintenance plans for EDS by applying the metaheuristic optimization method known as Artificial Immune System (AIS) to the problem. The objective is to maximize the reliability with a minimal total cost of maintenance. The approach considers constraints for different reliability indexes, the number of plans by equipment, the time required by crews and the type of consumer to calculate the reliability cost. The contributions of the paper are to apply a still unexplored technique to the problem of maintenance planning and to assess the reliability through different indexes. Data from a test case are used to evaluate the proposed approach. Index Terms: Artificial immune system, distribution system, preventive maintenance, reliability.

Increasingly, there are studies related to the diagnosis of failures in power transformers, and the techniques used for this purpose increase and improve progressively. Many researchers are concerned with developing predictive methods that can evaluate a power transformer in real time and without disconnecting it from its distribution network in order to increase its efficiency and avoid unnecessary energy losses. This work seeks to develop a standard operating procedure for the identification of failures in power transformers through thermographic tests that allow the evaluation of system loading, finding hot spots, sub-sizing of the electrical system, equipment overloading, as well as imbalances between the phases. The heat generated by the losses in a transformer is directly related to the life of the insulation, which decreases due to these thermal, mechanical and electrical stresses that interfere in its dielectric properties. The aging of the transformer insulation system is accelerated from 75 ° C, a value established by regulatory standards. The present work is applied in the transformers that make up the entire energy distribution network of the Federal University of Piauí. The FLIR thermographic camera was used to capture thermographs of the study object. The methodology defined that for data collection the frontal image and the lower profile of the transformer would serve as main models for this work, having other perspectives as auxiliaries. With the defined standards, the data collection for the thermographic analysis of the transformers was followed, observing the factors that can influence the results obtained for a more accurate diagnosis. The materials obtained in the field were analyzed and classified, observing also other variables collected, such as ambient air temperature, wind speed and load power, when it was possible to measure it.

Transformers are electrical machines of major importance for distributors. Their operation is subject to conditions that degrade their insulation system, such as: excessive temperature, presence of humidity combined with electrical and mechanical stress, among others. The technical life expectancy of a transformer is determined by several factors: equipment design, historical and future events, present and future working conditions. The objective proposed was to design and develop an algorithm with the definition of tools associated with the problem of the life of the distribution transformer, applying the use of normal load guides in the framework of the IEC 60076-7 standard, to manage their life history in scenaries of uncertainty (based on weather forecasts). Using an annual database of a typical SET of the EPEC Distributor of the Province of Córdoba, Argentina, a possible tuple scenary of values defined as K1, K2 and TK2 was analyzed and developed, which describes the daily load state of the transformers. For this, a function of correspondence between the historical values of these variables and the present value was defined. Then, through the prediction algorithm, the future values of the tuples were generated with their respective variances. Based on the results obtained in the case study developed, a technique has been defined and used to obtain precise indicators that helps, in advance, to program and manage the loadability of the distribution transformers accurately.

15.004 A Small Linearized Signal Model Developed to Evaluate the Stability of Power Control Circuit When the Photovoltaic Generator Provides Frequency Response V. R. Ramos and M. V. A. Nunes Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA), Belém, PA, Brasil

By integrating more and more intermittent renewable sources, such as solar and wind power, in the generation scenario, the result is a drop in the inertial constant of the system, causing implications for the frequency dynamics and stability and operation of the power system. Thus, the search to provide new control strategies for such inertial systems, as well as to include "virtual inertia" in the control of inverter-fed renewable energy sources connected to the power system becomes important. Therefore, this paper presents a small-linearized signal model developed to evaluate the stability of the proposed power control circuit when the photovoltaic generator provides frequency response and discusses the emulated inertial response with photovoltaic systems through the synthetic inertia and the control strategy of slope in the time domain. The simulations, using MATLAB / Simulink, were performed under different speeds and irradiation curves, with a frequency drop caused by the insertion of large loads. Comparative results were presented to verify the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method. Index Terms: Control droop, photovoltaic system, renewable energies, power system stability, syntactic inertia.

The two methodologies are formulated as an optimization problem in order to: 1) maximize the minimum damping coefficient of the closed-loop system; 2) maximize the sum of all closed-loop system damping coefficients; and 3) to shift the undamped or poorly damped electromechanical modes to a prescribed zone in the s-plane. The two methodologies compared in this article consider a set of pre- specified operational conditions. The two methodologies compared in this paper consider a set of pre-specified operational conditions. Also for the two methodologies, the electrical system is represented by the state-space equations. The methodologies are applied to the well-known New England test system. In the comparison, the results obtained by each method are assessed, such as poles and zeros maps, damping factors and the time domain response. Index Terms: Coordinated control, genetic algorithms, power system stability.

16.001 Oportunidades para Expansão da Cogeração de Eletricidade para o Sistema Interligado Nacional em Plantas Sucroalcooleiras É. R. Savazzi e P. Magalhães Sobrinho Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Guaratinguetá, SP, Brasil

Until the past decade, sugar mills unit produced only sugar and ethanol for commercialization and only enough energy for their own consumption. With the federal government's incentives through programs such as PROINFA (Incentive Program for Alternative Energy Sources) and the energetic crisis in Brazil in 1999, the sugar mills were motivated to market their surplus energy to the National Integrated System, enabling an important increase in the renewable energy generated in the in the country and consequently the increase of its financial gain. Due to produced own energy through the burning of the bagasse, there was practically no concern with the low energy efficiency equipment that operated in these plants, from the possibility of the commercialization of surplus energy, a work was needed to improve the energy performance of the equipment consumption. In this way, the proposal of this work consists of the comparative analysis of the substitution of equipment of low energy efficiency by modern equipment, focusing both on the technical, productive and financial results of the investment. The proposed solution has a high efficiency motor driven by regenerative frequency inverter, which allows the generation of energy by the machine itself during the deceleration stage and as it is a cyclic process the return of energy to the network is done repeatedly every cycle. The optimization model to be proposed in this work was validated from data of applications in existing projects, with results compatible with what was effectively implemented. The three hundred and seventyone sugar mills unit in operation in Brazil, the half part of these units still operated with low efficiency equipment. This work shows that if the solution is adopted for units that still operate with low efficiency equipment, the energy increase is made available to the national integrated system equivalent to the construction of 12 small hydropower plants or three wind farms or the result shows yet that the energy saved per harvest in each sugar mills plant is equivalent to the annual generation of a medium sized wind generator.

16.002 Cogeneration within the New Regulations on Distributed Generation M. I. Sosa Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP), La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Cogeneration or combined heat and power (CHP) refers to simultaneous generation of electricity and useful heating generation, being a more thermodynamically efficient use of fuel. Distributed generation (DG) systems are decentralized, modular and more flexible technologies, which are located close to the load, end users of power. Argentine generates the majority of electrical power needs in large centralized facilities with capacity for large electrical power output. Distributed energies can mediate these issues. Some provinces of Argentine have changed regulatory aspects in order to incorporate GD. Benefits are diversification of energy matrix to promote inclusion of distributed generation , reduction of costly fuel imports, stimulus for new investments in the power sector, development of local suppliers of equipment and devices and greater energy efficiency. The development of smart grids in the country will help the creation of new capacities and technological developments at the local level. In this context, cogeneration plays an important role. This paper discusses the relevant issues and aims of DG with CHP, looking forward to install such systems according to the new regulations of some provinces of Argentine. Index Terms: Cogeneration, distributed generation, legislation, rational use of energy.

The main goal of this paper is to analyze the viability of implementing the white tariff, from consumers and companies viewpoint, in the context of a distribution company located in the northeast of Brazil, Eletrobras Piaui Distribution. To achieve this, electricity load curves were analyzed, including Group B consumers from the state of Piaui for commercial, residential and rural classes, from which it can be created a more general profile of energy consumption. To support this analysis, the required investments for implementing white tariff were characterized considering the load curve of a, typically low voltage and residential, energy distribution feeder. The results of this evaluation show that adopting this new pricing model might not always be advantageous for the consumers in question. With regard to the supplier company, it is possible to show that the investments under the actual regulatory structure will be very high and on the other hand, the advantages of the peak demand may not be satisfactory. It also warns about the impact that the sum of the costs of implantation by the concessionaire will be reverted to the consumer in form of tariff in the periodic tariff review of the distributor. Index Terms: Distribution feeder, energy consumer, electricity distribution companies, load curve, white tariff.

18.001 Desafios da Regulação e Fiscalização dos Serviços de Distribuição no Setor Elétrico Brasileiro T. Pedroso e T. Sousa Universidade Federal do ABC (UFABC), Santo André, SP, Brasil

The National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL), created in 1996, is responsible for regulating and supervising the Brazilian electricity sector. In case of non-compliance with the current regulation, the regulatory body initiates the instruction of punitive process and may apply a punishment to the regulated agent. The Normative Resolution of ANEEL no. 63/2004 approves procedures to regulate the imposition of penalties distributors having as main penalties applied warnings and fines. In this context, from a data survey, the concepts of regulation and supervision of the Brazilian electric sector with focus on the electric energy distribution area and the calculation methodology used to apply penalties are presented. In order to improve the current regulation, a different form of penalty is proposed, which takes into account the amount of sanctions applied in the inspections of continuity indicators in the last four years, when defining the new limits of continuity indicators. In this way, Distributor "A" analyzed showed a decrease of 10% in the limits of the indicators, having for the year 2016 a reduction from 9 to 8.1 in the DEC indicator of the set "1" and from 11 to 9.9 on the FEC display of set "2".

In order to stimulate the technological innovations of the electricity sector in Brazil, on July 24 2000, the Law No. 9.991 was sanctioned. This law obliges the companies of this sector to annually apply a minimum percentage of its Net Operating Revenue in Research and Technological Development projects, according to regulations established by the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL). In this paper, initially it will present the entire legal framework of ANEEL’s R&D Program, as well as its directives and guidelines that regulate the elaboration and execution of projects. Will be shown the whole program, its elaboration format, the innovation chain phases and emphasis on project evaluation criteria. This has been the biggest problem faced y sector’s companies, which suffer from the high disapproval of invested resources, i.e., investments that are not considered as R&D resources, but as company expense and, consequently, as a loss to shareholders. Thus, the focus of this paper will be to present a proposition for a reformulation or implementation of the regulation that governs the R&D project evaluation process, based on a research carried out with the main roles involved in this process, making it possible to make the evaluation methodology more adequate to the objectives of the program, which is to provide more innovation in the operations of the companies in the electricity sector.

One of the main variables of interest in the manufacture and operation of transformers is the temperature, since it interferes in the useful life of the transformer. In this sense, the present work proposes a thermal study for the temperature estimate of a dry-type transformer. Thus, initially a thermal analysis was performed from experimental measurements of temperatures of a dry-type three-phase transformer of 500kVA for different conditions of load. Then, a thermal simulation was proposed using Finite Element Method. Therefore, the heat diffusion equation was used, with the boundary conditions: convection and radiation equations; jointly with the characteristics of the materials used, the transformer dimensions and the data collected experimentally. FEMM 2D software was used for this simulation. Finally, in order to validate the proposed analyzes, the experimental measurements were compared with the values obtained in the thermal simulation. The results obtained have demonstrated efficacy regarding the proposed analysis and simulation. Index Terms: Computer simulation, finite element analysis, power transformers, temperature measurement, thermal analysis.

19.003 Voltage Stability Analysis of Power Systems using the Continuation Method A. D. Vasquez and T. Sousa Universidade Federal do ABC (UFABC), Santo André – SP, Brasil

Due to the increasing demand for electricity, the quest for cleaner sources of electrical power generation has grown too. Therefore, the study of electrical power systems with renewable energy sources included in transmission and distribution networks is a common interest. The increased penetration of these intermittent sources in the power system requires detailed studies, which access its impacts in the normal functioning of electrical grids. In addition, these integrated systems required improvements in operations and control techniques because the electrical demand satisfaction entails the systems to its load limits. This paper presents a research of voltage stability studies based in the determination of the maximum loading of the electrical power system. The continuation method is applied to the power flow problem to improve the simulations performance. The objective is modeling the system using the continuation power flow and computing the algorithm by parallel technology to decrease the simulation time. Index Terms: Continuation power flow, maximum loading point, parallel processing, power system analysis computing, voltage stability.

Lightning strikes on transmission lines are a major cause of sudden outages in the power transmission system. When an atmospheric discharge reaches the earth wires or directly the top of tower, a backflashover may occur. This phenomenon consists of an electric arc between the insulators chain and the phase conductors of the line. This paper presents several simulations developed using the Alternative Transients Program (ATP) software to evaluate the insulation chain tolerance in a 138kV line when struck by a direct lightning at the top of the tower. From the results of the overvoltages involved, was made the evaluation of the efficiency and the dimensioning of several arrangements of the grounding system, in several scenarios of lightning strikes currents and ground resistivity, in order to reduce the occurrences of interruption of the electric power supply by backflashover. Index Terms: Alternative transients program (ATP), backflashover, descargas atmosféricas, desempenho de linhas de transmissão, sobretensões.

The study of transmission lines is fundamental, but it is unviable to realize measurements onto the real line, that is why it is necessary to applied numerical models based on the state varia les and the numerical methods of integration. In the case of this project, π circuits are used to represent transmission lines. Then, this model can be used to numerically simulate electromagnetic transients. But the results are influenced by numerical oscillations, known as Gi s’ phenomenon. Consequently, it is necessary to add damping resistances to the π circuits minimizing these numerical oscillations. The tests were realized to verify the effectiveness of the cascade of π circuits without the damping resistance in half of the total of circuits, eing this half placed in the center block of the cascade. At last, we compare the results obtained with and without the damping resistance in the central block. Index Terms: Power system transients, eigenvalues and eigenfuctions, linear systems, numerical analysis, simulation, state space methods, time-domain analysis, transmission line modeling.

This article presents a multiobjective model for the location of protection and maneuvering equipment in electricity distribution networks considering alternative sources of supply such as distributed generation (DG). The model implemented aims to optimize different reliability indicators, as well as the costs associated with protection equipment and energy not supplied. As an optimization tool, an algorithm called Micro Multiobjective Particle Swarm Optimization (Micro-MOPSO) is used in conjunction with a specialized algorithm that allows to evaluate the reliability of the system with DG sources, also considering permanent and temporary failures. He algorithm was tested in a network of 52 nodes in medium voltage. Finally, the results show the performance and efficiency of the proposed method for an adequate location of the equipment.

One way to model the transmission lines is applying π circuit cascades. In practice, it is impossible to carry out tests in actual lines that transmit large blocks of electrical power. Thus, a simple physical model can be important for undergraduate students to familiarize themselves with concepts of electromagnetic waves, electrical length, reflection and refraction of waves. This model may consist of resistors, inductors and capacitors. In the first part of the research work, the longitudinal part of a π circuit, composed of five locks of resistors and inductors in parallel, was assembled and studied, and the voltages, currents, lags between the two waves and the FFT signal varying from 10 Hz to 1 MHz were analyzed. Su sequently, the cross section of the π circuit, composed of commercial resistors and capacitors, was added, and its transfer function and delay angles were analyzed at the same frequency range. The inductance and capacitance values were adequately adapted to maintain the propagation velocity similar to general transmission lines. According to the data obtained, it was possible to construct graphs of the resistance, inductance, transfer function and delay angles of the complete π circuit y the frequency to e compared with the results that should e o tained theoretically. After the analysis of one π circuit, one more unit will be added in cascade so that its behavior is analyzed. The main idea is to o tain a cascade with several units of π circuits for a simple model of transmission lines. The physical model can be used by undergraduate students to assimilate various concepts related to power transmission and signals. The numerical model can be improved based on results obtained from the physical model. Index Terms: Power system transients, eigenvalues and eigenfuctions, linear systems, numerical analysis, simulation, state space methods, time-domain analysis, transmission line modeling.

19.009 Introduction of Damping Resistances in Simulations of Electromagnetic Transients Using Alternate Structures M. O. Santos, L. H. Jús, T. G. Pereira, A. C. Moreira and A. J. Prado São Paulo State University (UNESP), São João da Boa Vista, SP, Brazil

For modeling the transmission lines, it is necessary to use a large amount of π circuits in cascade. In case, there are three different types of π circuits: the initial unit, the intermediate and the last one. The numerical model is ased on these three types of π circuits. Using this model, numerical simulations include errors that cause numerical oscillations. Thus, a damping resistor is inserted to dampen oscillations and reduce errors. Currently, tests are performed with different π circuit structures. In this work, it is presented and discussed alternate structures where one type contains the damping resistance and the other does not contain the mentioned resistance. The both structures are applied alternately in the cascade that represents the analyzed transmission line. For the simulations with alternate structures, an odd number of circuits has been used to ensure that the model has the initial and the last units with the damping resistance. The application of alternate structures for the electromagnetic transient simulation was implemented in order to reduce the computational simulation time maintaining the accuracy obtained previously with the application of the damping resistance for whole π circuits of the model. Index Terms: Power system transients, eigenvalues and eigenfuctions, numerical analysis, state space methods, transmission line modeling.

This project presents the construction and analysis of a physical model of transmission lines. These lines can e represented y a cascade of π circuits. Each π circuit consists of commercial availa le electrical components (resistors, capacitors and inductors). The classical π circuit structure does not consider the influence of frequency on the line parameters. In the classical circuit structure π, parallel RL locks were inserted to simulate the influence of the frequency on the transmission line parameters. The physical model was based on a mathematical model solved by state variables applying the trapezoidal integration. The impedance and inductance values of one π circuit were o tained for a wide frequency range, as well as, the resistance and inductance values of the longitudinal branch as a function of frequency. The transfer function, considering input and output voltages, was obtained as a function of the frequency. The physical model will be adapted to represent PLC (Power Line Communication) systems, a technology in which the transmission of signals and electrical power is done using the same conductor of electrical energy. Using different frequencies, the both signals can be transmitted through the same physical conductor. Index Terms: Power system transients, eigenvalues and eigenfuctions, numerical analysis, state space methods, transmission line modeling.

In many applications, like connecting rod crank such as displacements pumps, heavy rolling mill, wind generation connected directly on grid, the asynchronous machines (AM) are exposed to torques with periodic variations, which produces cyclical variations of speed and absorbed current, with consequent risk of inadmissible voltage oscillations, consider flicker limits. Generally, it dynamic phenomenon is evaluated using the machine stationary external characteristics, even applying a torque-speed characteristic linearization at the working point. However, as the torque variation is more severe, higher his frequency variation, or lower the system inertia, the speed and current transient variations affect the torque-speed characteristic, losing validity the approach to quasi-stationary behaviour, resulting necessary to study dynamic and electromagnetic phenomenon jointly. This paper presents an analysis of this problem based on a quasi-stationary model, and on the AM circuit (or unified) theory. Then, for a real case, is developed an simulation using ATP, studying the AM behaviour with sudden or oscillating torque. Finally is presented an AM experimental behaviour evaluation to oscillating and sudden torques generated by Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine, fed by an electronic converter with programmable torque control, corroborating with the predicted by the model and simulations, establishing the applicability of different studied models. Index Terms: Induction motor, dynamic behavior, sudden torque, torque oscillations.

The synchronous generator is a machine with constant frequency, which supplies power to a given load. A generator operating under partial excitation loss conditions is subject to a number of problems, such as overheating, loss of synchronism, and loss of system stability. Therefore, it is necessary to develop synchronous generator protection methodologies that eliminate undesired situations such as those caused by partial and total machine excitation losses. In this context, the present work presents the problems caused by partial and total loss of excitation in synchronous generators, through simulations of situations where excitation losses occur. Furthermore, a methodology for the detection of partial and total excitation losses, capable of differentiating these phenomena from a stable power swing, is presented. This technique is based on the extraction of the current and voltage signal envelopes at the generator terminals, which have specific characteristics in both excitation loss and power swing events. Thus, the proposed technique showed to be fast and with good performance in the detection and classification of stable power swings and excitation losses, when compared to the traditional methodologies applied for this task. Index Terms: Electrical power systems, partial loss of excitation, protection, synchronous generator.

The R&D of the National Electric Energy Agency of Brazil currently undergo an evaluation only after its conclusion. Thus, poorly evaluated projects can have the financial charges relating to their debts disallowed, which represent financial losses to companies in the electricity sector. More than 14% of the R&Ds suffer total disallowance because they are evaluated as inadequate. The proposed system, called the R&D Evaluation and Management (RDEM or AGPeD in Portuguese), has the main objective of reducing disapproval through automated evaluations. These evaluations can be carried out in the initial proposal of the R&D project, that is, before the beginning, during the development and at the end of R&D, and can generate a final report in a coherent and standardized way. Moreover, with the proposed system, the evaluation process can be faster, once the originality search becomes automated. This search can occur in several different sources, having the flexibility to include new sources, and reduce the time spent by the evaluator when compared to a manual search. Once the search is carried out in several different sources it is possible to also increase the possibility to evaluate more precisely. The RDEM system, in addition to automating the search for originality and report generation, still provides questionnaires that can indicate the aspects of costs, reasonableness, applicability and relevance of the evaluated research. Both electric sector companies can use the system in relation to project proposals, as well as auditors and consultants in relation to the final evaluation of various R&Ds. In the latter case, the system still has the advantage of using the same criteria for several works, reducing a possible error of human interpretation. This system is still being developed and new functionalities are being included, but with the part already developed it is possible to realize that the evaluation process can be improved with the use of this tool. Using prior evaluations of consultants and comparing with the previous results generated by the system, it was possible to determine a standard that the system should operate and this is already partially implemented. Index Terms: R&D automated evaluation, R&D disallowance, R&D management, reduce disapproval, reduce financial losses.

In the Electric Power System the protection is made by relays, the operation of the relays takes place from the voltage and current signals. These signals are transmitted to the relays through Potential Transformers (PTs) and Current Transformers (CTs). The CTs are subject to the saturation of their core, a phenomenon in which the current waveform is distorted at the secondary terminals, damaging the performance of the protection relays, which are based on root mean square values of the quantity in question to determine its performance or not in the protection scheme. The present work demonstrates the performance of differential relays under the effect of saturation of current transformers, in order to identify possible undue performances for defects outside the protected zone. Cases were analyzed for different fault types and according to the results obtained through the simulations, it can be concluded that the current signal distortions in the secondary of the saturated CT directly influence the operation of the differential protection relays. Also, it was possible to verify that such distortions become more severe according to the magnitude of the short-circuit current.

This paper presents a methodology for automatic allocation of reactors on medium voltage distribution systems in order to mitigate energy loss. In Brazil, some feeders are distinguished by their long lengths (over 100 km) and very light load, which results in a high influence of the capacitance of the line on the circuit’s performance, requiring compensation through the installation of reactors. The automatic allocation is accomplished using and optimization heuristic called Global Neighborhood Algorithm. Given a set of reactor models, it outputs an optimal solution for a certain feeder in terms of reduction of energy loss. The algorithm is also able to verify if the voltage limits determined by the user are not being violated besides checking for energy quality. The methodology was implemented in a software tool and can show the allocation graphically. It was tested for four real feeders and the results obtained were able to diminish the losses significantly, from 50.56%, in the worst case, to 93.10%, in the best case. Index Terms: Optimization methods, power distribution, reactive power control.

In Brazil, some feeders are distinguished by their long lengths (over 100 km) and very light load, which results in a high influence of the capacitance of the line on the circuit’s performance, requiring compensation through the installation of reactors. The automatic allocation is accomplished using and optimization meta-heuristic. Given a set of reactor models, it outputs an optimal solution for a certain feeder in terms of reduction of energy loss. The algorithm is also able to verify if the voltage limits determined by the user are not being violated besides checking for energy quality through resonance analysis. The last condition is the main subject of this paper. The resonance frequency is obtained by the calculation of the impedance seen from the bar in which the reactor will be installed and comparing it to the reactor’s inductance. If the resonance frequency is near to any harmonic of the main frequency of the system, the solution that suggested this allocation must be dismissed. Some simulations are presented in order to show the possible results concerning the resonance analysis. Index Terms: Power distribution, power system harmonics, reactive power control.

19.034 A Firefly Algorithm Applied to Coordinated Tuning of Power Systems Controllers A. L. M. Takahashi and P. B. Araujo São Paulo State University (UNESP), Ilha Solteira, SP, Brazil

Firefly Algorithm (FA) is a swarm intelligence algorithm inspired by the flashing behavior of fireflies, which uses their flashing lights as a warning for potential prey and for reproduction attractiveness. In this paper, FA is applied to find the optimal parameters for both Power System Stabilizer and Power Oscillation Damping controller. Several parameters are evaluated. The o jective is to analyze how they impact over algorithms’ performance on the enhancement of damping power systems electromechanical oscillations. To achieve the paper’s o jective, a series of numerical simulations of the Symmetrical Two-Area Power System are carried out. Simulations data show that for lower loading conditions, FA convergence is increased. For small populations searching capacity is reduced, while large populations result in lower processing speed due to the increase in the computational effort. The step factor controls the neighborhood search; big values enlarges the search area but impair the intensification process of the FA. The attractiveness coefficient controls the diversity of the solutions by adjusting how the fireflies update their position towards the brightest firefly. Results allows to conclude that FA can be applied to coordinate PSS and POD controllers and hence increase the damping of power systems oscillations. Index Terms: Evolutionary computation, firefly algorithm, power system analysis, power system stability.

The maximum amount of energy that a hydroelec- tric power plant can commercialize in a year is named as Assured Energy. Some conditions are unknown at the moment this energy is contracted, such as its power plant generation, which is dis- patched by the Brazilian Independent System Operator (ONS) in a centralized way, the energy demand of the system and the price of the energy on the market. Therefore, the strategy employed to seasonalize this assured energy, or physical guarantee, has fun- damental importance to the power generation agent, once a cor- rect strategy implies to maximize the average of its revenues or minimize its risks. This work aims to apply the Flower Pollination Algorithm metaheuristic (FPA) in order to obtain an optimal strategy of assured energy's seasonalization. Ultimately, a com- parison between two different methods is proposed, FPA and Adaptive Coordinate Descent search heuristic (ACiD). Both methodologies are compared and a series of analyzes were per- formed based on the processing time, optimality of the solutions and best revenues obtained. In order to deal with the uncertain- ties of the problem at the moment of contract, synthetic scenarios are generated by the Hydrothermal Dispatch Model (MDDH), which contemplates the uncertainties on generation, energy de- mand and price of the energy.

20.002 PWM Inverter Fed Induction Motors Bearing Failures Identification C. H. B. Souza, M. M. Pereira Cunha, H. Rachid, L. Gonçalves Jr. and R. C. Creppe Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Bauru, SP, Brasil

Bearing are an important part in three-phase induction motors (MITs) and are made from rollers or spheres, internal and external rings and cage. Defects can happen in any part of a bearing, and those defects will generate vibrations in different frequencies. Early failure identification is very important for MITs’ maintenance. Thus, the utilization of accelerometers (sensors) is an traditional alternative to non- invasive MIT monitoring. Another important aspect is the efficiency. In MITs, bearing failures power and supply harmonics are factors that contributes to efficiency reduction. The use of frequency converters is also an important characteristic in those disturbances, with the presence of various harmonic distortions. PWM inverters promotes additional vibration in MITs and difficult the data acquisition by introducing noise in signals acquisition and processed signals. Then, some careful is needed used to study how those factors influence a MIT’s overall performance. This work aims to esta lish differences and similarities between main vibration frequencies components in operations with defective bearings and powered by frequency converters. With the observations of those frequency components, it would be possible to do predictive maintenance in MITs and, consequently, increase their lifespan. The results show some specific frequencies components that indicates bearing failures in MITs powered y PWM inverters. Also, when it’s an external ring earing failure fifth harmonic component is highlighted. Laboratory results obtained from industrial motor tests are discussed and future workings should address different switching frequencies and other types of failures. Index Terms: AC motors, data analysis, frequency conversion, maintenance, vibration measurement.

The electric motor is a type of electric machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy and its development had started some centuries ago arising from the study about electromagnetic phenomena. Nowadays, the electric motors, mainly the three phase induction motor, are fundamentals in industrial activity, allowing faster and versatile production. Nowadays, the goal is to avoid emergency and unscheduled maintenance. It is in such context that the monitoring motors working under an unbalanced voltage condition is studied. To acquire the vibration signals emitted by the motor, it was used a low cost easy installation and handling transducer piezoelectric sensor, which can measure the acoustic emission, quantity related to the motor vibration spectrum. This current work studies the effects caused by the unbalanced voltage, as well as the possibility of using a low cost piezoelectric sensor to collect the emitted signals of the motor that, through a data acquisition board, that are mathematically treated by software for further analysis and processing. An industrial induction motor was tested with distinct levels of power supply unbalance and the vibration signals were mathematically treated and analyzed with the LabVIEW suite. According to the partial results of the research, it is possible to conclude that the unbalanced voltage produces many changes in the motor vibration behavior that could be identified through the low cost piezoelectric sensor.

20.004 Early Bearing Fault Detection Using Hilbert Transform M. M. Pereira da Cunha, H. Rachid, C. H. B. Souza, L. Gonçalves Jr and R. C. Creppe Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Bauru, SP, Brasil

Due to the larger number of induction motors in the industrial plants, studies about early fault detection are an important issue. During the life cycle of the motors, they are subjected to several conditions that can generate electrical or mechanic failure and the most responsible for these failures are the bearings with about up to 40%. The bearings are fundamental mechanical elements to the motor operation composed by internal and external ring, besides that, they are developed according to the application requirement. The most frequency cause of these failures are excessive or inadequate lubrication, excess load, contamination, misalignment, machine component defects, improper application, among others. Regardless of their origin, failures produce abnormal vibrations which can be small at first and intensify over time. Currently, the observation of vibration in induction motors is an important technic to identify faults prevent them from taking on large proportions. In addition, it is a non-invasive method by using a low cost sensor and easy installation coupled to the motor. This work aims to analyze vibrations of electric induction motors with healthy bearings and bearings with deliberately inserted defects. The vibration signals were analyzed with the aid of the LabVIEW software through specific signal processing techniques such as FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) and Hilbert Transform. A 2-hp induction motor with triaxial vibration sensor and CompactRio data acquisition system was used. The vibration bearings were acquired with healthy bearings and later with bearings with artificially inserted defects. After the mathematical treatment using the Hilbert transform the results were compared and discussed. Index Terms: Induction motors, bearing faults, hilbert transform, fault detection, motor failure.

The monitoring of partial discharges in high voltage devices, such as in power transformers, have an importance for prevent functional problems associated of insulation material deterioration. In transformers, the insulation materials could be early degraded if the device is stressed by some critical factors like as: excessive overloads, heat, atmospheric discharges, nonlinear charges, maneuvers that causes a transient response in electric system, water inlet in oil insulation, etc. These factors could change the physical and chemical properties in insulation materials and generated partial discharges (PD) at the transformers. The acoustic emission method is based on mechanic waves detection of ultrasound emitted from partial discharges by acoustic emission (AE) sensors installed on the transformer wall.

21.006 A Cooperative Games Approach for Demand Side Management in Smart Grids L. S. M. Arnoux and W. Uturbey Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG), Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil

Demand-Side Management (DSM) programs con- sider the energy consumers as intelligent agents and as key players for system management, gaining importance on the Smart Grid era. In this context, we propose a cooperative approach for the decision-making process of an aggregator that represents a group of residential consumers in a DSM program. The aggregator participates in a day-ahead market and has to decide the best load curves for their consumers in terms of energy costs. Our framework is divided in 3 steps: data submission, scheduling model and cost sharing. In the first one, consumers send to the aggregator their consumption preferences. With that information, the aggregator schedules consumers’ appliances, respecting their preferences and minimizing the total DSM cost, using a mixed- integer scheduling model. In the last step, the aggregator attempts to allocate total program cost to the participants in a fair manner, using the Shapley Value. We test our framework in two random instances, with different appliances, preferences and number of consumers and verify that more flexible participants contribute more to the coalition value, and so forth pay less. Moreover, the peak pricing and inclining block rates models have the capacity to reduce peak-to-average ratio of the system.

Leme Nowadays, the expansion of electric systems in traditional way faces difficult barriers to meet the growing demand, driven mainly by environmental concerns and fossil fuel depletion. In this context, the microgrids present a safe and reliable option to integrate Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in distribution networks. In order to obtain the maximum benefit of DERs it is necessary the use of optimization tools that allow to supply demand efficiently. Thus, this paper presents a cost optimization model for DERs investment and operation, including CHP and renewable generation. The uncertainty of renewable sources is represented by a scenario tree. Potential benefits and drawbacks of DERs installation were explored through simulations for several case studies. The results show that the developed tool can provide support in the decisionmaking process. As a feature to highlight, the model allows to perform analyzes respect to the impact of DERs integration in a medium- term uncertain horizon.

22.001 Behavior Analysis of Exact and Approximate Techniques on Distribution Systems Reconfiguration C. Gerez and E. A. Belati Universidade Federal do ABC (UFABC), Santo André, SP, Brasil

For increasing distribution systems reliability and optimize its operation, a diverse amount of studies and researches are developed with the goal to find solutions for its problems. One of the greatest challenges faced, specifically on distribution systems, is to find ways to minimize its active losses values and improve its voltage levels. To achieve this objective, there are some techniques that can be used to solve this problem, being these systems reconfiguration, one of the most viable option from both economic and technical point of view. In face of the nature proposed by the reconfiguration solution, where opening and closing of disconnect switches is needed to determine new topologies that present better results, computational techniques are usually the best option to find these new configurations, since the search space is of a 2n order, where n is the number of maneuverable switches. These techniques can be basically divided in exact and approximate, the last being normally based on evolutionary algorithms and artificial intelligence. This paper presents a comparative study that initially considers the application of an exact technique, based on Branch and Bound (B&B) algorithm to solve the problem for the studied systems, and after that, applies a bioinspired metaheuristic, the firefly algorithm, based on these insect behaviors and its social and environmental interaction, for the same systems. Being this an optimization problem searching the minimum value, it is subject to the following constraints: 1) radiality; 2) load islanding; 3) admissible bus voltage levels; 4) bus power balance. The methods were initially applied to a 5 buses and 7 branches system and after on a 16 buses and 21 branches and 33 buses and 37 branches systems. Through the obtained results, it is possible to analyze the distribution network performance improvement after its reconfiguration and compare each methodology behavior, pointing out the pros and cons of each one of them.

22.002 FACTS Allocation via CROW Search Algorithm S. C. Reis, O. L. Tortelli and L. S. Coelho Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR), Curitiba, PR, Brasil

This article proposes an allocation methodology of the so-called second generation of Flexible Alternate Current Transmission System (FACTS) Controllers, more specifically, the STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator), SSSC (Static Synchronous Series Compensator), and UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller). The proposed allocation strategy associates the steady-state analysis of the electrical network, with the location and adjustment of controllers parameters determined by a novel and very promising optimization technique called CROW Search Algorithm (CSA). CSA is a rather simple population-based metaheuristic method with only two adjustable parameters, which makes it very attractive for applications in large scale problems as device allocation.

22.003 Multinodal Load Forecasting Based on Fuzzy- ARTMAP Neural Network A. J. Amorim, T. Abreu and C. R. Minussi Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Ilha Solteira, SP, Brasil

This work proposes to develop a predictor system (multinodal forecasting) considering several points of the electrical network, such as: substations, transformers, feeders, etc. based on an ART (Adaptive Resonance Theory) neural network family. It is a problem similar to the global forecasting. The difference corresponds to use a strategy to construct the input and output of the data with several parallel neural modules to the global prediction system. Considering that the multinodal prediction is more complex, if compared to the global prediction, the multinodal prediction will use the Fuzzy-ARTMAP Neural Network and the Global Load Participation Factor, which are two important resources. The advantages of this approach are: (1) processing time is equivalent to the processing of the global forecasting, i.e., the additional time processing is quite low; and (2) Fuzzy-ARTMAP Neural Network converges faster (hundreds times) than backpropagation neural network (benchmark in precision). The preference for neural networks of the ART family is due to the fact that such architectures have the characteristic of stability and plasticity that provide the results in a fast and precise way. In order to test proposed forecast system, results are presented for three substations from a database of New Zealand Electrical Company. Index Terms: Global load participation factor, load forecasting, electrical system distribution, artificial neural network, fuzzy-ARTMAP.

This paper presents a strategy for solving the allocation problem of sectionalizing switches in a Brazilian electrical distribution system. The method used considers the fault history of the system during one year and the optimization of two contrasting objective functions: the reliability index Equivalent Duration of Interruption per Consumer Unit (DEC) and the total cost related to the sectionalizing equipments, such as: manual and automatic switches and automatic reclosers. The problem's optimal solutions acquisition is accomplished through the application of a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm, the NSGA-II (Elitist Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm II), which works very well with the optimization of two objectives. The efficiency of the proposed strategy is tested in a Radial Distribution System of Companhia Paulista de Força e Luz utility which has 2257 bars and 25521 consumers and seeks to minimize the number of switches Book of Abstracts 161

The PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) is an optimization technique that stands out from the others for its simplicity of programming and processing speed, due to its short algorithm and parameterization, this article aims to use a modification of the PSO (MPSO) algorithm so that this technique can be used for dynamic control of a DC Motor. It was parameterized and conditioned so that it can operate a plant with second order system characteristics to be verified the behavior of this algorithm on the response characteristics. The PSO is used as a proportional controller in which the particles represent the gain of that controller and the program acts in order to modify that gain so that it maintains the motor speed constant in relation to modifications in its feeding and external disturbances. It is observed in simulations performed in the MATLAB software, using a parameterization that allows its use for the dynamic control, so it converge to the ideal response in a steady state and several transient properties are obtained through parametrization, thus, introducing the PSO as a possible technique to be used for dynamic process control. Index Terms: Modified PSO, motor DC, dynamic control.

Smart-grid is in expansion in transmission and distribution systems due to many advantages compared to the traditional systems. Moreover, this model facilitates the renewable sources insertion, such as wind energy, in the consumer units. However, one of the barriers to a greater participation of the wind power source in the electric matrix is related to the uncertainty of the power generation due to wind speed variations. This paper evaluated the artificial neural network performance for wind speed prediction in a city located in Bahia state, Brazil, using historic data with steps ahead from thirty minutes to six hours. The delays quantity was determined by autocorrelation function (ACF) and the number of neurons in the hidden layer was chosen by tests for different predictions. The results comparison allowed to conclude that the artificial neural network presented better predictions for steps ahead until two hours with MAPE error lower than 20%. Consequently, the proposed system permits a prior knowledge of the wind power to the system operator, as well as the network efficiency improvement.

This paper presents a methodology for the allocation of capacitor banks in radial distribution systems with binary differential evolution algorithm. The allocation of capacitor bank aims to reduce the electric losses from reactive power present in the network, aiming at the optimization of system operation and cost reduction. In this paper eight types of capacitor banks were used, among them four fixed types and four automatic types, where the algorithm is able to select possible combinations of capacitor bank installation, in order to minimize electrical losses, and consequently improve voltage and power factor in the bus feeder, without transgressing the standards imposed by regulatory agencies, and minimize the cost of installing capacitor banks. The methodology is tested in a real system of a Brazilian electricity distribution utility, considering two levels of demand. The results obtained demonstrate that the proposed algorithm was able to minimize conflicting objectives such as reduction of losses and cost, respecting the operational restrictions as well as, guaranteeing solutions that do not cause harmonic resonance, pointing to the applicability of the proposal of this work. Index Terms: Differential evolution algorithm, distribution systems, genetic algorithms, harmonic resonance, power capacitors.

Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) aims to determine the individual consumption of each load inside a building from the detailed analysis of voltage and/or current measurements made at central location in the electrical system. Thus, the individual consumption of each appliance is disaggregated from the overall measurement, without entry into the installation and consequently, without physical access to the appliances. A disaggregation of loads can be summarized in three steps: event detection, recognition and consumption estimation. Event detection consists of determining when a load changes its state, that is, detecting an event is determining when a load is turn on/off or made a transition to another operating stage. An adequate performance of detection methods is fundamental to the good performance of the other steps, recognition and estimation of consumption. Tuning the detection methods parameters is very important, however, some methods of event detection have a complex interdependence between the parameters. Therefore, the main contribution of this work is the use of genetic algorithms to determine an optimal fit of parameters, since genetic algorithms are good solutions Book of Abstracts 163

Power Quality is the property of the electric power that the customer receives, in what refers to the voltage waveform, amplitude and frequency. In Argentina, several regulations exist regarding the Quality of the Electric Supply where the acceptable maximum values are specified in the harmonic content of as well the voltage supplied by the utility as of the content of the current that the customer absorbs from the grid. Today, it is frequent the detection of problems of overloaded equipment and elements due to harmonic pollution as well of the utility distribution system as of the customer installation, such as transformers, neutral conductors, capacitors, motors, etc. Indeterminations and errors exist by the presence of harmonics in the measurement of power and energy, due to the lack of a definition of universal acceptance of the reactive magnitudes. The incorporation of customer equipment with new technologies should be carefully studied by their possible increment of the harmonic contamination, It is concluded in the urgent necessity to establish new limits of strict implementation in the levels of harmonic distortion of the voltages and currents, before levels are reached that make unmanageable the distribution system.

A methodology for optimal allocation of passive filters in an electrical distribution system is proposed in this study. Harmonic distortions are reduced using filters, however their location in the system requires attention. Depending on the choice of the installation’s place(s) of filter(s) there is the possibility of worsening the Power Quality by increasing harmonic distortion at other points. Thus, this research aims to find the optimal installation place using a minimum number of filters. Cases were simulated to observe the behavior of harmonic distortions according to the filters allocation. Initially filters were designed for certain buses and allocated in the proposed buses, so also at different points. It was observed that the best results to mitigate system average harmonic distortion did not occur with the installation of the filter for which proposed buses but in another which is more distant. The harmonic distortion mitigation was observed not only in the nearby buses, but also in the distant ones, while the initially proposed allocation was only good in mitigating harmonic distortion of nearby buses. This occurred as a consequence of the change of the harmonic current flow, and this highlighted the need for attention in choosing the buses for filters installation.

23.006 Estudio de un Banco de Pruebas para la Determinación de la Eficiencia Energética de Motores Asincrónicos Trifásicos J. M. Trepat y P. A. Massa Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP), La Plata, Bs As, Argentina

In our country and in many countries of the world, three-phase asynchronous motors require the order of sixty percent or more of the annual electricity consumption in the industry. Three-phase asynchronous motors play a significant role in industrial processes and energy efficiency is closely associated with the costs of production processes. For these reasons, many efforts are made, scientific and technical, to know in detail the efficiency of three-phase asynchronous motors. The changes that introduce technological improvements in this electric motors, from new designs and the use of new materials in their construction, are validated commercially through the so-called "energy efficiency labeling" that the legislation of each country considers mandatory. This process of labeling is ultimately a process of Product Certification by one of the systems that characterize it (brand, type, etc.) and that always require the carrying out of tests following standard procedures at national and international level. Given the importance of having means for the testing of these motors, a test bench with the following characteristics are performed: versatile, easy to operate and low power consumption during testing (regenerative). The latter compensates for a possible higher initial cost of the bank and over time is highly beneficial economically. The proposed bank uses a three-phase asynchronous motors, twin to the motor to be evaluated, operating as a generator, the load of the engine to be tested and completed with a primary electronic power supply, a back-to-back inverter or inverter with regenerative brake and the necessary protection and control devices. The use of a motor, identical to the machine to be evaluated, such as load and versatility provided by the power Book of Abstracts 167

electronics, allows the possibility of returning the energy to the grid so that in the process only the losses of the component elements of the test bank are consumed. A brief description of the standard methods of testing asynchronous electric motors are carried out, the operation of the asynchronous machine is analyzed as a generator, the components of the proposed test bench are presented and a typical case of bank operation is described for the determination of the energy efficiency of a three-phase asynchronous motors.

Brazil has in its energy matrix a large portion of hydroelectric generation, a portion that has been suffering for some time from the impacts caused by the infestation of Limnoperna fortunei, popularly known as golden mussel. This mollusk is an invasive species from South Asia, detected in South America in 1991 in the Rio de La Plata and since then its remains are found along all coast as well as ports and rivers throughout the Brazilian territory. This type of mussel, in addition to affecting the local fauna and flora has been causing problems through its incrustation in the pipes and conduits of all the hydroelectric network and also domestic. Its Book of Abstracts 168

fixation often causes the clogging of pipes with smaller diameters and in other cases the reduction of the internal diameter of the pipes, which causes an increase of load loss. There are several studies on how to control the infestation of the species, however, so far no reports have been made of any process that has eradicated or contained such infestation. This work presents an evaluation of the effect of scale in pipes of several diameters, being possible to determine the evolution of the factor of loss of load as a function of the infestation, varying it according to the number of layers of incrustation. The results show that the smaller the pipes, the greater the impacts related to the losses and the efficiency, both, when compared to systems without any type of incrustation. In many cases there may be a problem of occlusion of the pipes, causing system clogging. For larger diameters, the impact is proportionately smaller. However, as the number of scale layers increases there is an increase in the loss of charge in the system. It is important to emphasize that the mollusc in study, presents high proportions of infestation and is able to survive, develop and grow under different conditions, requiring new and constant observations regarding its progress on the hydrographic basins in Brazil.

As energy is the basis of society's development and way of life, it is necessary to research new sources of energy that are not based on fossil fuels, which are the main cause of emissions of pollutants into the environment. Pyrolysis stands out for its flexibility in terms of product yield and composition. The most common and usual ways of providing energy to the pyrolysis process are fuel oil, natural gas or electricity, which can be replaced by a renewable source, in this work, solar energy will be used as a thermal source. The objective of this work was designed an energy use system for the pyrolysis process based on solar thermal energy and an auxiliary system. The system has working flexibility, since pyrolysis depends on certain parameters, such as pyrolyzer type, temperature, heating rate, residence time and type of sample. Thus, in order to achieve different temperature ranges, a parameter that influences the yields of the products obtained (gas, liquid and coal), the proposal aims at dimensioning the parabolic solar concentrator, this system should reach a minimum temperature and should include an auxiliary system if the solar radiation is not sufficient at certain times throughout the day.

1Federal University of Juiz de Fora (UFJF), MG, Brazil Institute of Southeast of Minas Gerais (IFSUDESTEMG), MG, Brazil

This paper presents the principle of a Modular Multilevel Converter operating as Static Synchronous Compensator. The Modular Multilevel Converter has been proposed as an alternative topology to overcome limitations of conventional Voltage-Sourced Converters in high voltage networks, since it is possible to increase the converter capacity by adding more submodules per converter arm. Additionally, the modular structure permits the synthesis of multilevel voltage waveforms which simplify the design of harmonic filters and magnetic structures required to connect the converter to the mains. The submodules of each converter leg should have its dc voltages regulated and equalized. Digital simulation results are used to validate the control strategy of the Static Synchronous Compensator and to demonstrate the performance of the balancing algorithms used to regulate the submodules dc capacitors voltages. Finally, experimental results obtained with a small-scale prototype with three submodules per arm are presented to validate the digital time simulation results.

The objective of this work is to obtain an evaluation of the harmonic generation at different states of load of three-phase 250 kVA power transformers, with Amorphous and Fe-Si cores by means of simulations. The nonlinear behavior is based on the magnetic saturation curves obtained from the characteristics of the materials. This is a case of analysis that constitutes a methodological example, since it is part of the calculation or design of the transformer and based on it, the electrical parameters for the simulation were calculated. The harmonic components of phase and line currents were obtained by using the Fast Fourier Transforman (FFT). The simulations clearly show the influence of the magnetic circuit asymmetry, and the saturation of the laminations, as well as the differences in their harmonic content for the different loading conditions.

The reactive energy must be compensated or neutralized, because it does not produce useful work, and in its movement from the generation to the load generates technical losses that not be eliminated but can diminished. There are also overloads in all elements of the system for this effect. This paper study arbitrary number of capacitor banks, randomly installed in the standardized 33-node distribution network for validate results, and seeks capacitive reactive power configuration injected by each bank to counteract the undesired effects of the phenomenon, minimizing losses and respecting imposed voltage limits. To do this, an algorithm used that explores the possible solutions and is inspired by the behavior of the ant colony (ACS) when it moves to find food. The simulations were done in object oriented C ++ programming language, of great versatility and as result, reactive power configuration is obtained that minimizes losses and improves the voltage profile. The execution time of the program is acceptable (close to minute using standard computing resources) and provides reports of voltage profile and losses.

The purpose of this article is to introduce the challenges faced by a Brazilian electricity company during the process of environmental regulation of a small hydropower plant from which it holds the concession and whose operations start in 1962. Until 2011, given its historic value as well as the still incipient application of a greater rigidity of environmental legislation, this small hydropower plant whose installed capacity is 30 MW had the term of its environmental license expired. The concessionaire of the hydroelectric exploitation in question, which has contractual obligations established in the concession contract no 65/1999 with the National Electricity Agency - ANEEL, with emphasis on compliance with the current environmental legislation, saw the almost 50 years of operation with provisional environmental permits and based on the lack of environmental legislation. The central challenge: the modernization and updating of production methods that were still linked to the beginning of the operation of the small hydroelectric plant in 1962 so that the negative environmental impacts could be solved and consequently the environmental regularization of said plant could be achieved according to the current environmental legislation. The study aims to contribute to other entrepreneurs who find themselves in similar situations.

24.003 Slope Influence on Variation of Reynolds Stream Inside a Tank of Fishway F. L. F. O. Tomé, M. C. Sampaio, E. M de F. Viana, R. S. Alonso e J. L. Z. Tarqui Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG), Belo Horizonte, MG, Brasil

The growing demand for electric power promotes the increase of hydroelectric plant construction in Brazil. However, the impacts of this type of system should be mitigated. Among them there are systems to allow the free movement of fish. The success of a fishway design depends both on the study of the swimming ability of fish as the analysis of the most appropriate hydraulic and structural parameters of the mechanism for passing migrant fish during the spawning season. The study of the fish increase efficiency by fishway depends on the monitoring of speed, energy dissipation and Reynolds shear stress along the path. Turbulence can increase the energy cost of locomotion of fish to extremely high levels, causing bodily harm or even the death of these organisms. The Reynolds shear stress is related to the continuous transfer of moments between masses of water with adjacent viscosities, these masses of water having different speeds. This tension exerts a force parallel to the body of the fish, which can cause a strong interference in its swimming performance and stability. The impact of shear stress depends on its direction in relation to the body of the organism. reports that the longitudinal component of the Reynolds shear stress (τxy) is the one that mainly affects the fish, where the x direction corresponds to longitudinal, and y the transversal to the channel. The Reynolds shear stress found in nature is low, more often less than 100 Pa. This stress value can be easily supported by fish, but values greater than 500 Pa can cause damage. With respect to Reynolds shear stress in all flow and slope conditions, the fish find possible areas of passage so that the values do not reach the defined limit that was 500 N / m2. However, there is a need to verify the influence of the exposure time on the different voltage magnitudes and, therefore, to verify a real limitation of this system. Index Terms: Fishway design, fish passages, swimming capacity, Reynolds.

In Brazil most of the electricity generation is from hydroelectric plants. In 2014 hydroelectric generation contributed by 65.2% of the total generated in the country. In that same year the installed capacity reached 133,914 MW (EPE, 2015). These plants have as characteristic the installation of dam along the cascade of the rivers with the consequent interruption of the fish passage and other organisms. One of the solutions that can be adopted to mitigate this interruption is the restoration of the ecological continuity, promoting the longitudinal connectivity of the rivers. This type of action is considered as the main factor in the restoration of watercourses regulated by dams. For the restoration of the ecological continuity one can choose the construction of Fish Passage that will allow the upward flow of migratory fish to the dam area. The ability of the fish to pass through the Fish Passage depends on the velocity of the flow, the energy dissipation inside the tanks, the Reynolds shear stress along the course and the swimming capacity of the individuals. The evaluation of the velocity field of the flow in the tanks is of fundamental importance to allow the passage of fish since they have limited capacity of swimming. The time and speed with which fish undergo fatigue are used to calculate their Book of Abstracts 175

swimming speed. The value of the flow velocity in the structure should not exceed the limit supported by the animal. The speed of swimming of the mandi (Pimelodus maculatus), a common fish in Brazil, and which can be considered as representative for the southeast region, is adopted in this work. The swim velocity for this species of fish is 1.3 m/s which is the mean critical velocity at first spawning. This work presents a study of the hydraulic behavior of a vertically slit MTP that can be considered as an appropriate structure for most Hydroelectric plant in the Southeastern Region of Brazil. This Fish Passage has the following characteristics: a) discharge of 55 m³ / h (reduced model) or 2.35 m³ / s (prototype); B) slopes of 6; 8; 10 and 12%. The results observed by the velocity field analysis show that the variation of the slope does not result in great interference in the possible area for the passage of the fish. As the declivity increases there is an increase in velocity in the main stream, but areas with velocities of less than 1.3 m / s that allow passage of individuals of this species (Pimelodus maculatus) by fish passage remain. Index Terms: Hydroeletric plants; Fish Passages; Swimming Capacity; Velocity Field; Declivity Increases.

The golden mussel (MD) is invasive in the American continent, observed for the first time in 1991, Rio La Plata, Argentina, presenting high reproductivity, fast growth and ability to adhere to solid substrates, forming agglomerates with up to 150,000 individuals / m2. Their larvae are microscopic, free, living under water effects for their dispersal. Its incrustations have caused damages in all places where contaminated water circulates. Studies are being developed to know the invader and control its spread. Despite the latest scientific advances, there is still no universal theory that models complex systems considering aspects such as constituents heterogeneity and interactions with other systems. Physical models are considered appropriate for some studies. For example, the influence of MD on hydraulic systems is worked with colonies of dead and stabilized individuals, eliminating risks of contamination and mortality. However, the carcasses are fragile to handle and suffer dimensional variations due to breakage and compromise the results. This work presents procedures to generate colonies of similar appearance to the real aggregates and resistant to water flow high velocities. The proposed technique was used by researchers for UFMG Hydraulic and Water Resources Research Center presenting satisfactory results with possibility of reuse of the colonies. Index Terms: Animal behavior, environmental monitoring, modeling, pest control.

Since the 1940s, sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) has been widely used in the electrical sector, mainly as an insulating medium and for the extinction of the electric arc in power circuit breakers, and its emissions are practically all of anthropogenic origin. Its deliberate release to the environment should be avoided as it is a greenhouse gas more potent than carbon dioxide at 20,000 times. In the electrical sector the release of SF6 into the environment is associated to the manufacturing and operation phases of the equipment. In the operation of the circuit breaker there is the leakage of larger proportions caused by a fault followed by pole explosion, in other cases it is associated to the small leaks caused by wear of a seal due to the time. Considering that the explosion of a circuit breaker are atypical cases, resulting from a manufacturing failure or lack of preventive maintenance, the article will estimate the contribution of the small leaks to the environment. Then, from the history of the occurrences registered for maintenance related to the complementation of SF6 gas in the circuit breakers, it was possible to quantify the volume of gas that was released in the period from 2009 to 2016. Index Terms: Electrical, equipments, maintenance, substation, volume.

Among the greatest challenges related to the implantation of hydroelectric plant is important to consider environmental impacts. One of the biggest trouble is related to the upstream path and downstream of fish. Those migrations are essential to the animals population, justifying the existence of efficient system fish path which avoid the mortality of them own during their way through the hydroelectric barrage. In many places all around the world, electric barriers are used to drive off and/or contain fishes into a limited area. To electric barrier building it is necessary to have knowledge about shock absorption limits by part of the fishes involved, your answer levels to tension levels, amplitude, frequency, electric barrier geometry (distribution way of electric camp in the water), water parameters like conductivity and temperature. After a detail analysis of these parameters, a barrier could be determined inside the acceptable limits or not. The acceptable limits are the fish expulsion from a determinate dangerous area without putting your life in danger purposeful. Thus, this project aims to present the problems of the current electric barriers and to present a new configuration for Brazilian species that suffer directly from the problem of power plant dams. Index Terms: Electric barrier, electro sensitivity, fish mortality, hydroelectric.

25.002 Identificação e Classificação de Cargas Através do Conteúdo Harmônico Via Redes Neurais Artificiais Fazendo Uso de um Sistema de Aquisição de Dados Baseado em Arduino C. A. Gomes de Souza, E. Biasotto Universidade Federal da Grande Dourados (UFGD), Dourados, MS, Brasil

This paper presents the study of the current harmonics content as a feature for load disaggregation and classification. The setup developed for data acquisition was based on Arduino, in order to be simple and inexpensive, that way it can be easily reproduced and improved. The system consists of a current transformer (CT), a voltage transformer (VT), a signal conditioning circuit, and the Arduino UNO R3 as the analog-to-digital converter and communication hub with the computer. Data were obtained from a set of three different pairs of lamps: incandescent, compact fluorescent and LEDs. A script created in Matlab was in charge of storing the data obtained and input it in a fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm in order to extract the harmonics content. It was observed that the first five odd harmonics (1a, 3a, 5a, 7a e 9a) were quite distinct among the loads. From this data set, the use of harmonics as a way for load classification was investigated by employing the Neural Network Pattern Recognition tool on Matlab, a classification neural network. The results obtained were excellent, with a precision around 90%, showing that indeed the current harmonics are a source of reliable data that can be used to identify different types of loads. Index Terms: Desagregação de cargas, harmônicos, redes neurais artificiais.

27.002 Power Factor Concepts with Nonsinusoidal Current Through LabVIEW: a Learning Tool Y. Q. Marinho and P. J. A. Serni Universidade Estadual de São Paulo (UNESP), Sorocaba, SP, Brasil

Although various definitions of power quality can be stated, it can be generically understood as voltage, current or frequency deviations that result in an equipment malfunction. The power quality concepts can be of complicated understanding because they involve nonsinusoidal currents and voltages, diverging from the traditional power theory, allowing diverse interpretations and confusing many professionals of the area. In this work, a virtual instrument (VI) for the study of the power factor with nonsinusoidal current in an interactive and real time platform was developed using LabVIEW software from National Instruments. For the simulation, a phase-controlled single-phase AC voltage controller was chosen, resulting in widely nonsinusoidal load current with non-zero shooting angle. The VI front panel presents the option of controlling the load current peak amplitude, as well as the shooting angle. There is also the option of selecting the compensation of the reactive power or current harmonic components. In addition to the nonsinusoidal powers – apparent, active, reactive and distortion – and the power factor and current harmonic distortion, according to IEEE Std 1459 (2010), the VI shows the voltage and current waveforms in the circuit, as well as their root mean square values and harmonic components. Index Terms: Computerized instrumentation, distortion measurement, electrical engineering education, power quality, reactive power.

An unregulated voltage from photovoltaic panel (PV) feeds the DC-DC converter and its output suffers variations due external factors. These output variations can be converted to an adjustable voltage value with maximum of stability, efficiency and can extract maximum power PV panels can generate using MPPT to control the static converter. In this paper, a didactic kit, focused on DC-DC converters for PV generators is developed. First, a general overview about some existing static converters is done and the more suitable topologies for the PV applications according to literature are detailed. The selected DC-DC converters presented in literature are modeled in PSCAD and simulated with PV panels. Then, prototypes of the DC-DC converters are assembled and field tests are developed with them. So, it is proposed a learning methodology based on comparisons with the simulated results and test fields, as much as the behavior between the different types of converters. Results show a kit with DC-DC converters available for computational simulations and to be applied in field tests, with practical experiments where it is possible to observe the differences between the converters, in terms of modeling and operation, reinforcing the learning related to this type of converter and its application. Index Terms: DC-DC boost converter, didactic kit, interleaved, multilevel, PV application.

In order to obtain fair tariffs, energy came to be traded through systematic auctions composed by two or more stages and with different market clearing price methodologies. Since then, teaching how electricity is traded has become a big challenge for professors due to the complexity involved in the auctions’ design. This paper presents a teaching approach that combines a mixture of traditional and active learning experiment done through a simulator that reproduces the auction of electricity from existing capacity in Brazil’s market. During the simulation, undergraduate students at Fluminense Federal University were separate into groups to play the role of generation companies. Afterwards, they had to take economic decisions and to compete among themselves for selling energy in the regulated wholesale market or signing bilateral contracts in a deregulated environment. At the end of the experiment, an evaluation of the learning activity was done by the students through a research survey. Index Terms: Active based learning, auction, contracts, education, game-based learning, group work, power market, power system economics, simulator, training.

Results from laboratory surveys with different sources for lighting are presented and considered. Electrical characteristics as luminous flux, chromaticity coordinates, correlated color temperatures, color reproduction index among other parameters considered relevant, were obtained using routine procedures of photometry and radiometry. The luminous flux was determined from the Ulbricht sphere (integrator) and also with computer aided goniometer. The results allowed access to important references in the context of interlaboratory comparison and proficiency testing for incandescent light sources, HPS and SSL (LED). Among the deviations from parameters and estimated quantities, we highlight that the luminous flux variability found was very low. Data accumulated during an extensive period of time was considered, in addition to interactions with important local institutions the work considers interfaces with institutions from Argentina and Colombia. In the case of HPS lamp type, the determination performed by the IEE / USP revealed result, in absolute value, higher than the value assigned by the laboratory that coordinated the national effort. Sampling and tabulations performed during national interlaboratorial activity with public lighting luminaires were started, and the larger dispersion of relative values observed (13%) occurred for correlated color temperature parameter. Index Terms: Comparação interlaboratorial, ensaio de proficiência, fluxo luminoso, eficiência luminosa (lm/W), LED.
