Power systems do not always operate under fully balanced conditions because of unbalanced loads and untransposed transmission lines. Under such conditions, commonly used positive sequence equivalent will no longer be valid. On the other hand, use of full three-phase model will add significant computational burden for the considered application. This paper describes a simple approach to address this issue for the specific application of state estimation. The main idea is to exploit the linearity of the estimation problem when the system is measured solely by phasor measurements. The linear problem lends itself to decoupling via modal transformation unlike the nonlinear formulation with SCADA measurements. A further improvement is introduced via the use of the least absolute value (LAV) estimator, which has the desirable property of automatic bad-data rejection. The paper illustrates how a robust LAV estimator designed for a positive sequence model can be efficiently used for the solution of an unbalanced three-phase state estimation problem.

A Robust Parameter Estimation Method Based on LAV Estimator Özdemir, Volkan; Göl, Murat (2015-07-09) In a power system, it is known that parameters may carry small errors due to the weather conditions, such as temperature and humidity changes, as well as gross errors due to the miscommunication between the control center and circuit breakers and tap changers. Those incorrect parameters may cause biased state estimates, which may have serious results. Therefore, those parameter errors should be identified and corrected. Considering the increasing number of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs), in this paper it i...
Synchro-phasor based three phase state estimation using modal components Göl, Murat (null; 2013-02-21) Power systems may not always operate under fully balanced conditions due to unbalanced loads. Such cases will necessitate full three-phase monitoring of the system state. Thus, positive sequence network model and associated state estimation formulation will not be valid for such operating conditions. It is clearly possible to use a simple extension of the least squares (WLS) estimator to formulate a full three-phase state estimation problem. However, this may require significant changes to existing state es...
A Novel Noise Reduction Technology for Switched Reluctance Motors Bizkevelci, Erdal; Özlü Ertan, Hatice Gülçin; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal (2008-07-24) The conditions are sought at which an SIR motor can be operated with highest efficiency, while producing a desired torque output at low shaft torque ripple. The investigation is based on the simulation software that uses measured flux-linkage (V, 0, 1) and static torque (T, 0, 1) characteristics of a given motor. The variation of the shaft torque, torque ripple and efficiency of the motor Is investigated, while the control variables "advance angle" and "conduction angle" are swept over their range with a co...
A Fast Decoupled State Estimator for Systems Measured by PMUs Göl, Murat (2015-09-01) Given the rapid increase in the number of phasor measurement units (PMU) installed in substations in recent years, it is not unrealistic to assume that most transmission systems will be fully observable by only PMU measurements in the not so distant future. Such a scenario will enable faster and numerically easier state estimation solution which will be non-iterative due to the linearity of the PMU measurement equations. However, as will be shown in this paper, the benefits do not end there and a closer loo...
A Novel Parameter Error Identification Method for Power Plant Dynamic Models Açılan, Etki; Göl, Murat (2023-01-01) Incorrect parameters in a power plant dynamic model affect the analysis results and control decisions in a power system, which may have serious consequences. The online calibration techniques in the literature utilize sensitivity analysis to determine the identifiable parameters before the calibration, and treat the majority of sensitive parameters as potentially erroneous. Hence, the candidate parameter subset for calibration mostly consists of “distractors,” i.e. highly sensitive but already...
