Most faults that occur on transmission lines are caused by extreme weather with lightning storms in the distance. These are not only prolongs the time of removing and recovering, but also increases economical damages. If faults can be precisely located, maintenance crews can reach them quickly, and remove the faults in time. So, the precise locating of the faulted point on a transmission line is very important to improve the system reliability, and decreases economic damages as an inherent consequence of long term outages. Also, fault location methods are becoming of much importance for utilities and research. In this paper, two single-terminal impedance-based fault location techniques will be investigated to show the reliability and evaluated the performance of reactance and Takagi method by using MATHCAD program simulations.

Dynamic thermal rating (DTR) system is an effective method to improve the capacity of existing overhead line. According to the methodology based on CIGRE (International Council on Large Electric systems) standard, ampacity values under steady-state heating balance can be calculated from ambient environmental conditions. In this study, simulation analysis of relations between parameters and ampacity is described as functional dependence, which can provide an effective basis for the design and research of overhead transmission lines. The simulation of ampacity variation in different rating scales is described in this paper, which are determined from real-time meteorological data and conductor state parameters. To test the performance of DTR in different rating scales, capacity improvement and risk level are presented. And the experimental results show that the capacity of transmission line by using DTR has significant improvement, with low probability of risk. The information of this study has an important reference value to the operation management of power grid.

This paper describes a fault location algorithm in real combined transmission systems with underground power cable. The algorithm to calculate the fault location was developed using DWT wavelet transform and travelling wave occurred at fault point. And the proposed algorithm is also used the transient signal of one end in stead of the signal information of two ends. On the other hand, in this papers, the method to discriminate fault point between overhead line and cable section is also Proposed. Variety simulations were carried out to verify the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm using EMTP/ATFDraw and Matlab. Simulation results show that the proposed method has the excellent ability for discrimination of fault section and fault location in combined transmission systems with power cables.

In this paper, the leaky wave readiation characteristics of a microstrip rectangular patch array is presented. The reflection and transmission characteristics are analyzed using the equivalent transmission line method. Since the leaky wave is generated from the periodic array, using the Floquet'theorem, leaky wave frequency range is predicted and confirmed by the measured reflection and transmission characterstics of the array. A 17 element microstrip patch array at X-Band is designed and tested. Teh scattering Characteristics show good agreement woth those obtained from the equivalent transmission line analysis. The radiatio characteristics at 10GHz using this method show about 3${\circ}$ shift in main lobe angle compared with measured results.

This paper proposes a new method to handle transmission line losses using loss distribution factors (LDF) rather than marginal loss factors (MLF) in electricity market operation. Under a competitive electricity market, the bidding data are adjusted to reflect transmission line losses. To date the most proposed approach is using MLFs. The MLFs are reflected to bidding prices and market clearing price during the trading and settlement of the electricity market. In the proposed algorithm, the LDFs are reflected to bidding quantities and actual generations/ loads. Computer simulations on a 9-bus sample system will verify the effectiveness of the algorithm proposed. Moreover, the proposed approach using LDFs does not make any payments residual while the approach using MLFs induces payments residual.

가공송전 도체는 정상 동작조건 하에서 전력회사의 선로 설계지침에 규정된 지상고를 안정범위 내에서 항상 유지할 수 있어야 한다. 따라서 새로운 선로를 건설하거나 노화도체의 장력을 다시 조정하거나 또는 전력용량을 최대화하기 위해 동적송전용량을 모니터링하는 경우에, 도체 이도를 측정/또는 모니터링하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 도체의 카테너리 각도로 이도 및 장력을 추정하기 위한 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 가공송전선로의 대부분의 도체들은 전형적인 카테너리 곡선을 나타내므로 철탑 측의 카테너리 각도로부터 도체의 카테너리 곡선을 유일하게 결정할 수 있다. 이 카테너리 곡선을 토대로 도체의 이도나 수평장력을 쉽게 추정할 수 있다. 몇 가지 시뮬레이션과 간단한 실험 결과를 통하여 제안된 방법이 가공송전선의 도체 이도와 장력을 측정/또는 모니터링하는데 효과적으로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

MIS(도체-부도체-반도체) 구조로된 전송선로를 해석하기 위하여 기본적으로 특성임피던스와 전파상수의 추출에 기초한 일반적인 특성화 절차가 사용된다. 본논문에서는 Si와 Si02층 사이에 0전위를 가진 도체를 일정한 간격의 주기적인 배열로 고안된 새로운 모델의 MIS구조에 대한 유한차분법을 이용한 해석방법을 제안한다. 특히 전송선로에 대한 유전체의 영향을 줄이기 위하여 0전위를 가진 주기적인 결합의 도체로 이루어진 구조가 시간영역의 신호를 통해 시험된다. Quality factor 뿐만아니라 주파수 의존적인 추출된 전송선로 파라미터와 등가회로 파라미터가 주파수 및 0전위 도체 간격의 함수로서 나타내진다. 특히 전송선로의 Quality factor가 특성임피던스 및 유효유전 상수의 큰 변화없이 개선될수 있음을 볼 수 있다.

According to the records, approximately 50 percent of power failure were caused by lightning. Conventional fault preventive measures against lightning include reduction of the footing resistance of the tower, multiplication of overhead ground wires and unbalanced insulation of the double circuit transmission tower. In addition to these, transmission line arresters have been recently appeared as an alternatives. In this paper an unbalanced insulation method with transmission line arrester was assumed as another countermeasure against simultaneous double circuit trip of 154 kV transmission line by lightning strike. The lightning performance of line arrester was compared with conventional insulation concept using different numbers of porcelain and glass insulator. Larger numbers of insulator simply increase flashover current level by lightning but the lightning performance doesn't proportional to it. EMTP simulation and predictive calculation of lightning failure rate were carried out to evaluate the performance.

In designing System Protection Schemes (SPSs) in power systems, protecting transmission network against extreme undesired conditions becomes a significant challenge in mitigating the transmission line overloading. This paper presents an intelligent Special Protection and Control Scheme (SPCS) using of Differential Evolution with Adaptive Mutation (DEAM) approach to obtain the optimum generation rescheduling to solve the transmission line overloading problem in system contingency conditions. DEAM algorithm employs the attraction-repulsion idea that is applied in the electromagnetism-like algorithm to support the mutation process of the conventional Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. Different N-1 contingency conditions under base and increase load demand are considered in this paper. Simulation results have been compared with those acquired from Genetic Algorithm (GA) application. Minimum severity index has been considered as the objective function. The final results show that the presented DEAM method offers better performance than GA in terms of faster convergence and less generation fuel cost. IEEE 30-bus test system has been used to prove the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm.

Dynamic thermal rating technology can effectively improve the thermal load capacity of transmission lines. However, its availability is limited by the quantity and high cost of the hardware facilities. This paper proposes a new dynamic thermal rating technology based on global/regional assimilation and prediction system (GRAPES) and geographic information system (GIS). The paper will also explore the method of obtaining any point meteorological data along the transmission line by using GRAPES and GIS, and provide the strategy of extracting and decoding meteorological data. In this paper, the accuracy of numerical weather prediction was verified from the perspective of time and space. Also, the 750-kV transmission line in Shaanxi Province is considered as an example to analyze. The results of the study indicate that dynamic thermal rating based on GRAPES and GIS can fully excavate the line power potential without additional cost on hardware, which saves a lot of investment.
