Otimização multiobjetivo da compensação de potência reativa em redes de distribuição considerando restrições de distorção harmônica

A localização de bancos de capacitores nas redes de distribuição de energia elétrica, corretamente dimensionados, busca compensar eventuais excessos de circulação de potência reativa pelas linhas, o que implica a redução de custos operacionais pela redução das perdas de energia e um aumento da capacidade de transmissão de potência ativa assegurando os níveis estabelecidos de tensão e fator de potência simultaneamente. A proliferação das cargas não lineares provocou uma mudança nos cenários de estudo dos sistemas elétricos de potência devido aos efeitos nocivos que os harmônicos gerados por elas ocasionam sobre a qualidade da energia elétrica. Considerando este novo cenário, esta tese tem como objetivo geral desenvolver uma ferramenta computacional utilizando técnicas de inteligência computacional apoiada em algoritmos genéticos (AG), para a otimização multiobjetivo da compensação da potência reativa em redes elétricas de distribuição capaz de localizar e dimensionar de forma ótima as unidades de compensação necessárias para obter os melhores benefícios econômicos e a manutenção dos índices de qualidade da energia estabelecidos pelas normas brasileiras. Como Inovação Tecnológica do trabalho a ferramenta computacional desenvolvida permite otimizar a compensação da potência reativa para melhorar do fator de potência em redes de distribuição contaminadas com harmônicos que, diferentemente de métodos anteriores, não só emprega bancos de capacitores, mas também filtros de harmônicos com esse objetivo. Utiliza-se o algoritmo NSGA-II, que determina as soluções ótimas de Pareto para o problema e permite ao especialista determinar as soluções mais efetivas. A proposta para a solução do problema apresenta várias inovações podendo-se destacar que a solução obtida permite determinar a compensação de potência reativa com capacitores em sistemas com certa penetração harmônica, atendendo a normas de qualidade de energia pertinentes, com relação aos níveis de distorção harmônica tolerados.

Eficiência energética em uma indústria madeireira

In wood processing industries, which use electrical equipment in the production process, in most cases these are badly scaled or operate under inadequate conditions, resulting directly in industrial energy efficiency, which proves important because besides having technological innovation, also with practices and policies, aims to decrease power consumption. So in a wiring project should take into account the variables that influence energy efficiency. Thus this work has been reviewed and subsequently calculated some of these variables, such as active power, power factor and demand for the entire industry (global) and also for specific equipment, the chipper. The network analysis was performed in a wood processing industry in the city of Taquarivaí - SP, and evaluated these variables with a network analyzer and also by analysis on energy bills, which were found in both analysis levels below those found in literature. These factors are due to poor design, improper use, storage of equipment or even by characteristic of the production process, ie, the equipment running on empty because of the volatility of production

Well intended to supervision, protection and control of major electrical and thermal quantities involved in a substation, such as voltage levels, current, temperature, power factor, loads of transformers and circuit feeders, status of interlocking devices, switching equipment maneuvers, etc

Bancos de capacitores se corrente de Inrush

This work discusses about the effects and methods of control and elimination of the currents transients generated by switching capacitor banks, this currents are called inrush currents. Capacitor banks are widely used to compensate a low power factor generated by the widespread use of inductive loads. Currently many of these banks are automatic and therefore the capacitive cells are connected and disconnected according to the inductive loads on the network. However when connecting a capacitor bank to a bus can generate currents transients generated by electromagnetic transients. Aspects of the network, for example, the existence of a bank already connected to the bus, can influence the intensity of this phenomenon. This paper discusses some characteristics of the capacitors and the network to justify and explain the appearance of these transients and discusses its effects on the network and to other equipment. It is concluded that the main cause of this phenomenon is the voltage difference between the capacitor to be connected to the network and the bus, the results of the study were the bases to discuss the traditional methods to mitigate these currents and therefore its negative effects. Although in this paper is yet developed a method of electronic switching that can greatly reduce these transients

Análise do consumo de energia elétrica e da eficiência energética em uma indústria de processamento de madeira

In the industries of wood processing (sawmills), where timber is sawn in equipment such as band saws, circular saws, trowel, thicknessers, among others, that mechanically transform this resource and use of electric motors, which are not unusually poorly scaled working or overloaded, often a factor that is not found in these industries and has fundamental importance in the production process is energy efficiency that is achieved by both technological innovation and through all the practices and policies that aim to lower energy consumption, lowering energy costs and increasing the amount of energy offered no change in generation. For both during the design of an electrical installation, both overall and in various sectors of the installation, investigations are necessary, considerations and uses of variables and factors that put into practice the theme of energy efficiency. Therefore, in this paper, these factors were calculated and analyzed for a wood processing industry (sawmill) in the municipality of Taquarivaí - SP, namely: active power, power factor, demand factor and load factor. Where they were small in relation to the literature, these events that occur when devices are connected at the same time and due to the conditions of processing the wood, where the engines have large variations in electricity consumption during the unfolding of the same, due to efforts with the load and idle moments between each machining operation in the equipment

Estudo sobre iluminação e banco de capacitores de uma típica indústria metalúrgica

The use of electricity for obtaining light has been quite an issue currently discussed, either through new technologies that are emerging, the quest for greater efficiency, reduced waste and rational use. This work comprises a lighting design applied to a metallurgical based Brazilian Standard 5413 which mentions levels of luminance for interior and, in the case of this work, for a sandblasting booth. Ways to improve the workplace and luminosity presented before the project and also after its implementation are discussed. Technologies are chosen guided by technical calculations according to the illuminance values they want to reach for the environment studied. All pertinent design features are critically analyzed and discussed, and at the end proposals are presented, relating to each other in a comparative framework, so the best solution is applied in a practical way in the enclosure. Results are also presented concerning the maintenance of a bank of capacitors to correct the power factor for the metals studied company

A new family of zero-current-switching PWM converters and a novel HPF-ZCS-PWM boost rectifier

A new family of direct current (DC) to DC converters based on a zero current switching pulse width modulated (ZCS-PWM) soft commutation cell is presented. This ZCS-PWM cell is consists of two transistors, two diodes, two inductors and one capacitor; and provides zero voltage turn-on to the diodes, a zero-current turn-on and a zero-current zero-voltage turn-off to the transistors. In addition, a new commutation cell in a new ZCS-PWM boost rectifier is developed, obtaining a structure with power factor near the unity, high efficiency at wide load range and low total harmonic distortion in the input current.
