A influência da temperatura nas impedâncias de sequência de condutores utilizados na rede primária de distribuição

Distribution networks are formed by long lines that carry electricity substations to homes and industries. These lines have associated impedance and depending on operating conditions of the network these impedances may vary. This paper provides a detailed analysis of the effects observed in studies of voltage drop, short circuit and electrical losses, when considered the drivers sequence impedances used in primary distribution network at different temperatures. Therefore, it is initially presented a calculation methodology and details the factors that influence the final values. The methodology presented tackles in a practical way the main factors that directly or indirectly influence the values of the impedances as an emblematic example and will be properly dealt with throughout the paper is the effect of temperature on the values of the sequence impedances. More specifically is dealt with the case of XLPE cables protected, by having a higher maximum operating temperature than the operating temperature of the network. The effects observed in the power flow generated when considering the impedance values at both temperatures were analyzed. The impedance drivers tend to increase with increasing temperature. Thus the impedance of the conductor XLPE protected will tend to be greater for the maximum operating temperature for which the operating temperature of the network, resulting in greater voltage drop and higher electrical losses

Teaching general concepts about sensors and transfer functions with a voltage divider

This work proposes the use of a simple voltage divider circuit composed by one potentiometer and one resistor to simulate the behavior of the electrical output signal of linear and nonlinear sensors. It is a low cost way to implement practical experiments in classroom and it also enables the analysis of interesting topics of electricity. This work induces naturally to a class guide where students can build and characterize a voltage divider to explore several concepts about sensors output signal. As the result of this teaching activity it is expected that students understand fundamentals of voltage divider, potentiometer operation, fundamental sensor characteristics, transfer function, and, besides, associate directly concepts of physics and mathematics with a practical approach.

Análise da viabilidade do uso de biogás gerado a partir de dejetos bovinos em microturbinas para fins de geração, cogeração e trigeração de energia

The use of digesters has become an important alternative for the proper disposal of organic agricultural wastes, serving as a solution to some environmental and health problems. Furthermore, the process of digestion provides commercially valuable by products such as biogas and bio fertilizer. The generation of biogas from agricultural waste, and its use in power generation systems has aroused great interest in rural areas because it enables supply in whole or in large part the energy demand of ownership by reducing production costs. The advent of technology has brought new forms of energy conversion of biogas, as the use of micro turbines specifies to be fuelled with biogas derived from the decomposition of organic matter in digesters, since it has a low level of methane in its composition, and high degree of impurities such as hydrogen sulphide, which are harmful to equipment and reduce the calorific value of biogas. The use of micro turbines behind other advantages like low emissions, great fuel flexibility and low maintenance. This paper presents an analysis of the feasibility of using biogas generated from cattle manure in micro turbines to generate electricity. Behind also an assessment of the energy potential that each animal has on various uses of biogas, and forms of energy recovery from the exhaust gases of the micro turbine. Also conducts an evaluation of the energy savings that the use of biogas aggregates properties.

Localizador de faltas por ondas viajantes em linhas de transmissão

It is important to ensure smoothly operation of a transmission line, sending energy to the consumption centers with minimal interruptions and safer. With this necessity, the fault location techniques have grown, in order to mitigate the impact of the fault and its correction can be more quickly and accurately. This paper presents a comparison between two different techniques of fault location, the fault location by impedance method, which uses the line parameters, the impedance per distance, voltage and current signals, and the other is the traveling wave method, which uses only a very fast analysis of time, synchronization and length between the line ends, do not using voltage and current values, but the temporal perception of the fault. Using travelling waves fault detection makes the previous knowledge of line parameters obsolete, which helps a lot network technicians and engineers with a quick and easy analysis. The methods are simulated in ATP Draw software, so both algorithms can be evaluated for their effectively and accuracy

Estudio de la corrosión atmosférica del acero al carbono y sus productos de corrosión mediante el empleo de técnicas electroquímicas, difracción de rayos x y microscopía electrónica

[ES] El problema de la corrosión en Canarias es un tema muy importante que no ha sido abordado hasta la actualidad. Dada la naturaleza de los ensayos necesarios para caracterizar el nivel de corrosividad de una atmósfera, ensayos muy costosos tanto en tiempo como en materiales, se pone énfasis en determinar la velocidad de corrosión mediante técnicas electroquímicas. En el presente artículo se desarrollan dichas técnicas, determinando el efecto relativo de los contaminantes en la velocidad de corrosión y caracterizando los productos de corrosión formados, concluyendo que el SO2 ejerce un efecto más acusado que los iones cloruros en la velocidad de corrosión del acero al carbono. La técnica de Espectroscopia de Impedancia electroquímica (EIE) se presenta como una herramienta válida para caracterizar la capa de productos de corrosión formados sobre el acero al carbono.

La optimización mediante algoritmos genéticos del proceso de deslastre y reposición de carga

[ES] La satisfacción de los consumidores de electricidad está muy correlacionada con las frecuencias de las interrupciones del suministro de energía eléctrica y con la duración de las mismas. Actualmente los deslastres de potencia, entendiendo éstos como el conjunto de cortes de suministro de energía eléctrica en ciertas zonas por causa de fallos imprevistos en el sistema eléctrico, se realizan con relés de subfrecuencia mediante criterios de cortes fijos. Este proyecto de investigación propone nuevas pautas de actuación para deslastrar y reponer, enmarcadas de forma no tan rígida y acorde al estado del sistema en cada momento.

Estudio de una metodología mixta presencial-en línea de aprendizaje activo : empleo del dual-lerning en ingenierías

[ES] Las experiencias aquí mostradas comienzan en el curso 2002/03. Las asignaturas incialmente elegidas para tal estudio han sido Calidad Industrial, Luminotecnia y Anteproyecto. Posteriormente, se extendió parte de la metodología, el dual learning, a Máquinas Eléctricas I y II, Accionamientos Eléctricos y Seguridad Laboral y Medio Ambiente, asignaturas todas ellas incluidas en las currículas de Ingeniería Técnica Industrial en Electricidad y en Electrónica Industrial. Los objetivos perseguidos en esta experiencia son: disminuir el fracaso académico en las ingenierías, reducir el absentismo, adaptar la metodología docente a las exigencias del EEES, incorporar la metodología de forma progresiva, comparar la nueva metodología con la empleada en el pasado, desarrollar nuevas herramientas evaluadoras, elaborar una herramienta para medir la satisfacción del estudiante. Dichos objetivos fueron abordados de forma secuencial, dada las dependencias entre ellos. Con este trabajo demostramos que es posible cumplir, en gran parte, los objetivos iniciales propuestos, y validar la viabilidad de las modificaciones introducidas, creando expectativas de transferencia de las metodologías usadas hacia otras asignaturas e, incluso, currículas. Esperamos que esta tesis sirva para solventar las necesidades de un alumno dual, que se debate entre asistir a clase y ver el mundo desde algún medio electrónico.
