Fault Analysis Using Superconducting Fault Current Limiters
Journal Title: International Journal of Innovative Research in Advanced Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 0
Abstract
Smart grid is an advancement of the existing electrical grid. The key feature of the future smart grid is the decentralization of the main power grid into number of smaller grids (known as micro grids). Interconnection of the distributed generating (DG) sources is required with the existing electrical grid to enhance the reliability of the power system. Extensive integration of DG sources within a smart grid causes failure of a successful implementation of smart grid due to the presence of enormous fault current. Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) has the capability to reduce the fault current level within the first cycle of the fault current resulting in an increased transient stability of the power system. In this paper an application of a resistive type SFCL, designed in Simulink / SimPower System has been proposed to limit the fault current that occurs in an interconnected power system. A resistive type SFCL model has been developed in Simulink and the performance of SFCL at different locations has been analysed in the proposed system considering wind farm (10 MVA) as a distributed generating (DG) source with the conventional power plant, to reduce the fault current in micro grids. The feasible location of the SFCL having no negative effect on the DG source has been evaluated in three phase and single line to ground faults at various positions in the smart grid.
