This thesis aims the design and the realization of a radio noise meter which can be used to measure radio interference of a high-voltage transmission line due to partial discharges like conductor corona. The radio noise meter is the common equipment for radio noise and radio interference voltage measurements. The corona of transmission lines, its characteristics, its effects on radio interference and measurement of corona caused radio noise in the scope of relevant international standards are investigated. A radio noise meter fed by a monopole antenna, centered to 1 MHz with a bandwidth of 4.5 KHz and using a Quasi-Peak detector having 1 ms charge time and 600 ms discharge time is realized. The conductor corona from the radio interference point of view is observed, measured and analyzed with the help of the realized radio noise meter.

Calibration of conventional measurement transformers against harmonic components by using field measurements of optical transducers and resistive-capacitive voltage transformers
Türkmen, Coşkun Aziz; Ermiş, Muammer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010)
It is known from the literature that conventional voltage and current transformers measure inaccurate values for voltage and current harmonics which are parts of power quality. Maximum bandwidth of conventional current transformers, which are used in electricity transmission and distribution systems, is 1.5-2 kHz and it is lower for conventional voltage transformers. Also, it is known that; voltages in some frequency spectrum are measured higher and voltages in another frequency spectrum are measured lower ...

n this thesis, RF sections of a multi tier instantaneous frequency measurement (IFM) receiver which can operate in 2 – 18 GHz frequency band is designed, simulated and partially realized. The designed structure uses one coarse tier, three medium tiers and one fine tier for frequency discrimination. A novel reflective phase shifting technique is developed which enables the design of very wideband phase shifters using stepped cascaded transmission lines. Compared to the classical phase shifters using coupled ...

Karaca, Haldun; Ermiş, Muammer; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2007)
In this thesis, the effects of Harmonics on the Top Oil and Hot Spot Temperatures of Power Transformers used in Turkish Electricity Transmission System have been investigated. Due to the solid state equipment, the harmonic levels increase. This effect raises the losses and temperatures in the transformer windings. None of the power transformers currently used in Turkey has measuring equipment suitable for measuring the Hot-Spot temperatures. In this study, a computer program is written in LABVIEW which meas...
