STATIC DRIVES

OBJECTIVE

The area of electric motor drives is a dependant discipline. It is an applied and multi disciplinary subject comprising electronics, machines, control, processors / computers, software, electromagnetic and engineering applications. With the advent of power electronics the control of machines was made easy and wide. As every industry aims at production with less economy and environmentally free from pollution, this power semi conductor control of drives is one which could satisfy the foresaid. So this subject really puts the thinking rails as the current trend of motor control is involved with both power electronics and micro controllers.


COMPUTER METHODS IN POWER SYSTEMS

OBJECTIVE

The increasing demand for electric power coupled with resource and environmental constraints creates several challenges to system planners. The need for computational aids in power system engineering led to the design of special purpose analog computers. The process of applying a computer to the solution of engineering problems involves a number of distinct steps such as problem definition, mathematical formulation, selection of a solution technique, programme design, programming etc. The relative importance of each of these steps varies from problem to problem. Moreover, all steps are closely related and play an important role in the decisions that must be made.

The objective of power system analysis and study is to plan, design and implement a power system which provides a reliable power of rated voltage and frequency at affordable cost to the customers. The power system problems are modelled as mathematical problems and solved by analytical / conventional and numerical methods. The invention of fast processing computer with the ability to deal with large databases made a revolution in this field.

FUNDAMENTALS OF HVDC AND FACTS

OBJECTIVE

The industrial growth of a nation requires increased consumption of energy, particularly electrical energy. This has to led to increase in the generation and transmission facilities to meet the increasing demand. The imperative of supplying energy at reasonable costs coupled with the developing reserves of non-renewable energy sources has led to the establishment of remote generating stations-predominantly fossil-fuel fired thermal station at pit head. Environmental considerations also sometimes dictate the sitting of power stations at remote locations. The need to economize on costly investments in generation reserves, sharing of benefits in utilizing variability in generation mixes and load patterns have given rise to interconnection of neighboring systems and development of large power grids.

The HVDC transmission made a modest beginning in 1954 when a 100kv, 20 MW DC link was established between Swedish mainland and the island of Gotland. Until 1970, the converter stations utilized mercury arc valves for rectification.
