Since the discovery of the high-temperature superconductors, many researches have been performed for the practical applications of superconductivity technologies in various fields. As results, significant progress has been achieved. Especially, Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) offers an attractive means to limit fault current in power systems. In order to verify the effectiveness of the SFCL, in this paper, the analysis of fault current and voltage stability assessment in a distribution system are studied using the EMTDC based simulation method in which a novel component for a resistive type of SFCL is presented. Through the simulation, the most suitable SFCL's application point is selected and the assessment method for the parameters of the SFCL is also recommended.

We have performed an EMTDC simulation for the current limiting effects of a superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) for the 154 kV transmission line between the Gaepo and Sungnam substations. The fault current increased up to 39 kA during an artificial ground fault. The SFCL with 100 ${\Omega}$ impedance after quench limited the current to 15 kA within a half cycle. This limited current is well below the upper limit of a circuit breaker, suggesting that the impedance of the SFCL in the transmission line is sufficient.

This paper proposes a finite element method (FEM)-based model of an interior permanent magnet (IPM) type BLDC motor having stator inter-turn faults. For more realistic simulation studies, the magnetic non-linearity is also considered in proposed model. And the simulation data are verified through experiment. By integrating the developed model with a current-controlled voltage source inverter (CCVSI) model, the characteristics of an inter-turn fault operated by six-switched inverter are investigated considering the speed control. And the circulating current, which is induced by magnetic linkage flux originated from PM, was analyzed from the view point of distortion of air-gap magnetic flux distribution caused deterioration of their torque.

In the case of HTS Resistive type Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(SFCL), its possibility has been discussed due to its theory and a simple structure. The Resistive type SFCL can be useful for the protection of the power delivery systems from fault current. Effective simulation scheme that can be applied to the utility network readily and cheaply under various conditions considering the sort of faults, the capacity of systems as well are strongly expected and emphasized among researchers. This paper proposes a simulation skill of resistive type SFCL using PSCAD/EMTDC.

A novel approach based on WaveARX neural network observer is proposed far the fault detect of a class of nonlinear systems which consist of known linear part and unknown nonlinear part. A linear observer is first designed, then a nonlinear compensation term in the nonlinear observer is estimated by using a deconvolution method. The WaveARX network is used to model the obtained compensation term. At last, the residual fur fault detection is generated based on the analysis of the upper bound approximate error. Simulation results have shown the feasibility and effectiveness of the method.

This paper presents a modeling and simulation of a grid-connected wind turbine generation system with respect to wind variations, starting of large induction motor and three-phase fault in the system, and investigates voltage variations of the system for disturbances. It describes the modeling of the wind turbine system including the drive train model, induction generator model, and grid-interface model on MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results show the variation of the generator torque, the generator rotor speed, the pitch angle, terminal voltage, system voltage, fault current, and real/reactive power output, etc. Case studies demonstrate that the pitch angle control is carried out to achieve maximum power extraction for wind speed variations, starting of a large induction motor causes a voltage sag due to a large starting current, and a fault on the system influences on the output of the wind turbine generator.

This paper presents a simulation model to analyze effects of electrical faults for the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(PMSM) drive system. The major fault modes of system are investigated and an intuitive system model is developed using MATLAB/Simulink. The developed model provides useful environments to inject and remove the various faults. Simulation results show the dynamic performances of system during the transient state from normal to fault, and those will be a great help to make a system more reliable.

An improved principal component analysis (PCA) method is applied for sensor fault detection and isolation (FDI) in a nuclear power plant (NPP) in this paper. Data pre-processing and false alarm reducing methods are combined with general PCA method to improve the model performance in practice. In data pre-processing, singular points and random fluctuations in the original data are eliminated with various techniques respectively. In fault detecting, a statistics-based method is proposed to reduce the false alarms of $T^2$ and Q statistics. Finally, the effects of the proposed data pre-processing and false alarm reducing techniques are evaluated with sensor measurements from a real NPP. They are proved to be greatly beneficial to the improvement on the reliability and stability of PCA model. Meanwhile various sensor faults are imposed to normal measurements to test the FDI ability of the PCA model. Simulation results show that the proposed PCA model presents favorable performance on the FDI of sensors no matter with major or small failures.

This paper analyses the characteristics of incomplete-journey double-circuit transmission lines on the same tower formed by single-circuit lines and double-circuit lines, and then presents a fault location algorithm based on identification of fault branch. With the relationship between the three-phase system and the double-circuit line system, a phase-mode transformation matrix for double-circuit lines can be derived. Based on the derived matrix, the double-circuit lines with faults can be decoupled, and then the fault location for an incomplete-journey double-circuit line is achieved by using modal components in the mode domain. The algorithm is divided into two steps. Firstly, the fault branch is identified by comparing the relationships of voltage amplitudes at the bonding point. Then the fault location, on the basis of the identification result, is calculated by using a two-terminal method, and only the fault distance of the actual fault branch can be obtained. There is no limit on synchronization of each terminal sampling data. The results of ATP-EMTP simulation show that the proposed algorithm can be applied within the entire line and can accurately locate faults in different fault types, fault resistances, and fault distances.
