Integration Of Reactive Power Compensation In A Distribution Network Case Study: Rumuola Injection And Distribution Network Port Harcourt, Nigeria

Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering and Science Invention - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 10

Abstract

This paper will considers the analysis of the voltage regulation techniques to investigate the activities of the system behaviour, voltage profile, power-injected, power received and mismatches. However, the existing data of the case study. Rumuola distribution network were used to compute a load flow with the aid of the electrical transient analyzer tool (E-tap-tool) to verify those areas in the feeder that have critical or marginal problem to be compensated. The automatic capacitor bank was integrated, coupled with the power factor correction controller to preset the existing current for the power factor correction. Thus, the voltage drop techniques was use to verify the existing state of the system, where power losses and mismatches are enormous. Furthermore, the results were obtained via simulation of the excel software programme. And the analysis were also simulated using electrical transient analysis tool (E-tap) to verify the existing state of the system, voltage magnitude, voltage drop and power flows etc. The result obtained via the excel software programme were used to plot graphs showing the voltage drop with respect to substations, power distribution for different stations, power distribution with respect to distances, voltage drop versus percentage voltage regulation for substations, voltage drop, power distribution with respect to load current (IL).
