  1. Mladen Kezunovic New Pserc Projects

  2. Newly approved projects • "...Enhanced Reliability..." Kezunovic • "...Automated Integration..." McCalley • “… Smart Sensors..." Simoes • “…Microgrid.." Lasseter • “…Detection..." Vittal • “…Parameter Tracking…” Heydt

  3. Enhanced Reliability of Power System Operation (Kezunovic) • Wireless communications • Circuit breaker monitoring • Gathering and processing substation data • Using substation data for state estimation, fault location, switching sequences, etc. • Comparing simulated data to the data recorded of in the field

  4. Automated Integration of Condition Monitoring ( McCalley) • Integrate substation condition-based monitoring for transmission-level transformers and circuit breakers with system-wide RCM-based maintenance allocation and optimal scheduling system (developed in another PSerc-funded project) • Use condition monitoring info in estimating equipment failure rates • Relate maintenance tasks to failure rate reduction for circuit breakers • Use multiagent system software design approach to integrate substation data

  5. Smart sensor development (Shoureshi) • Development of an optical-based sensor for health assessment of high voltage oil-filled T&D equipment. • Applications of light absorption spectroscopy in conditioning of transformer oil, thereby identifying potential causes of failures. • Fuzzy-based pattern matching for predictive failure detection & identification.

  6. Detection, Prevention and Mitigation of Cascading Events (Vittal) • Detection of major disturbances and protective relay operations leading to cascading events. • Wide area measurement based remedial action. • Adaptive islanding with selective underfrequency load shedding.

  7. Microgrid Protection and Control (Lasseter) • Create a simulation test bed using the EMTP • Investigate the effects of power electronic sources on short circuit currents in the Microgrid • Develop and test protection and control strategies using the test bed simulator • Implement protection systems on Wisconsin Electric Machines and Power Electronics Consortium’s hardware MicroGrida test bed

  8. Identification and Tracking of Parameters for Generator(Heydt) • identify the transient and subtransient parameters of the field winding of a large synchronous generator from operating data • develop a visual GUI-driven software package as a support tool. • identify shorted field turns and incipient failures of the field of a large synchronous generator • track selected parameters in time and with respect to operation.
