The detailed syllabus for Reactive Power Compensation and Management M.Tech 2017-2018 (R17) first year second sem is as follows.
M.Tech. I Year II Sem.
Prerequisite: Power Systems – II
Course Objectives:
- To identify the necessity of reactive power compensation
- To describe load compensation
- To select various types of reactive power compensation in transmission systems
- To contrast reactive power coordination system
- To characterize distribution side and utility side reactive power management.
Course Outcomes: Upon the completion of the subject, the student will be able to
- Distinguish the importance of load compensation in symmetrical as well as un symmetrical loads
- Observe various compensation methods in transmission lines
- Construct model for reactive power coordination
- Distinguish demand side reactive power management & user side reactive power management
UNIT-I: Load Compensation: Objectives and specifications – reactive power characteristics – inductive and capacitive approximate biasing – Load compensator as a voltage regulator – phase balancing and power factor correction of unsymmetrical loads- examples.
UNIT-II: Steady – State Reactive Power Compensation in Transmission System: Uncompensated line – types of compensation – Passive shunt and series and dynamic shunt compensation –examples Transient state reactive power compensation in transmission systems: Characteristic time periods – passive shunt compensation – static compensations- series capacitor compensation – compensation using synchronous condensers – examples
UNIT-III: Reactive Power Coordination: Objective – Mathematical modeling – Operation planning – transmission benefits – Basic concepts of quality of power supply – disturbances- steady –state variations – effects of under voltages – frequency –Harmonics, radio frequency and electromagnetic interferences
UNIT-IV: Demand Side Management: Load patterns – basic methods load shaping – power tariffs- KVAR based tariffs penalties for voltage flickers and Harmonic voltage levels Distribution side Reactive power Management:: System losses –loss reduction methods – examples – Reactive power planning – objectives – Economics Planning capacitor placement – retrofitting of capacitor banks
