The terminations and the joints are the basic accessories of the power cables. Power cables require electrical stress control when terminated. Since there are different types of terminations, the analysis should be done to choose the proper method for electric field control problem at the terminations. Throughout this study two different types of termination methods are investigated by using the finite element analysis program (ANSYS): Stress Controlled Termination Model with Deflector and Stress Control Tube (SCT). The results are compared with those obtained for a cable without stress control model termination. The numerical calculations are also compared with the measurements obtained by an experimental model: the electrolytic tank model.

IVoltage transformers are commonly used in medium voltage systems for both protection and measurement purposes. These transformers are designed to satisfy the mandatory IEC requirements at the lowest possible cost. The average life expectancy of such transformer is about 20 years, reliability and robustness are of the utmost importance. The main cause of failure during rated operation is the deterioration of the solid insulation by partial discharges. Partial discharges, unless there is a manufacturing erro...

Among most severe power system disturbances those degrading power quality are voltage sags and transient interruptions. Even voltage sags lasting only a few tens of milliseconds are enough to bring entire production lines to standstill, causing considerable economic damage as well as endangering the production equipment. Therefore necessary measures have to be taken to protect sensitive loads which are susceptible to these voltage disturbances. Among the solution candidates such as, Uninterruptible Power Su...

Insulation coordination is defined as the selection of the dielectric strength of equipment in relation to the voltages which can appear on the system for which the equipment is intended and taking into account the service environment and the characteristics of the available protective devices. In an insulation coordination study, the voltage levels of power system equipment are determined in order to ensure the protection of equipment against overvoltages. This proper design in terms of the insulation coor...
Calculation of core losses of a six-phase induction motor with third harmonic current injection
Büyükbaş, Afşin; Ertan, Hulusi Bülent; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2004)
The advantages of using a six-phase induction motor for industrial drives, over the conventional three-phase drive can be summarized as improved reliability, reduction on the power ratings for the static converters and harmonic reduction. A technique of injecting third harmonic zero sequence current components in the phase currents to improve the machine torque density was presented recently by another research study. However, to meaninigfully evaluate the performnce of such machines and/or to be able to ma...
Repetitive control of a three-phase uninterruptible power supply with isolation transformer
Çetinkaya, Süleyman; Hava, Ahmet Masum; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006)
A repetitive control method for output voltage control of a three phase uninterruptible power supply (UPS) with isolation transformer is investigated. In the method voltage control loop is employed in the stationary dq frame. The controller eliminates the periodic errors on the output voltages due to inverter voltage nonlinearity and load disturbances. The controller design and implementation details are given. The controller is implemented on a 5-kVA UPS prototype which is constructed in laboratory. Linear...
