Abstract:
Techniques and apparatus presented herein are directed toward monitoring an electric power delivery system to detect and locate a power generation event. A power generation event may include a tripped generator, a loss of a transmission line, or other loss of power generation. To detect the event, an analysis engine may receive and monitor input data. A detection signal may be generated based on the input data. Upon detecting the event, the analysis engine may determine a source and propagation of the event through the delivery system. Based on the source and propagation of the event, the analysis engine may determine the location of the event. The analysis engine may generate an overlay with the input data to provide the location and other information about the event to a user such that remedial action can be taken to resolve the event and restore the lost power generation.

Abstract:
Electric power system voltage control and voltage stability may be calculated using energy packets. Sets of negative energy packet sets normalized by a set of positive and negative energy packet sets may be used for voltage control by adding or removing capacitive units. Energy packet voltage indicators may be calculated using energy packets, and used to determine voltage stability. Control actions may be taken depending on the determined voltage stability.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods of sag in a power line. In an embodiment, a monitoring device may include a distance sensor and an operating parameter sensor. A processor of the monitoring device may acquire, via the distance sensor, a first distance measurement. The processor may acquire, via the operating parameter sensor, a first operating parameter measurement. The processor may provide an output signal indicating that the power line is sagging when a combination of the first distance measurement and the first operating parameter measurement exceed a first combined distance-operating parameter threshold.
Abstract:
A controller may use energy packets to control a prime mover of a machine. The controller may include an energy packet measurement control to calculate energy packets and convert the energy packets into a fuel valve reference. Further, a frequency control may receive system feedback associated with the monitored machine and generate a frequency correction based on the system feedback. The controller may add the energy packet value and the frequency correction to determine a prime mover power reference and provide the prime mover power reference to a fuel valve control of the machine.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to systems and methods of detecting discharge events on power lines. For example, a system may include an acoustic sensor that detects a sound wave emitted from a power line. The system may include a radio frequency (RF) sensor that detects a radio wave emitted from the power line. The system may include electrical sensor circuitry that detects an electrical parameter of power being delivered on the power line. The system may include a processor that determines that a discharge event has occurred based on the sound wave, the radio wave, and the electrical characteristic. The system may provide an output signal indicating that the partial discharge event has occurred.
Abstract:
Electrical power machines are monitored and a loss-of-field event is determined thereof using time stamped mechanical conditions and electrical conditions. The mechanical conditions may include rotational position, calculated and time stamped rotational frequency, valve position, temperature, or vibration. The time stamped electrical conditions may include electrical power system frequency, electrical power machine field data, electrical power machine terminal information such as voltage and current, and the like. Electrical and mechanical time-stamped electrical power machine data from different machines that may be local or remote from each other may be compared for monitoring the machines.
Abstract:
Disclosed is state trajectory prediction in an electric power delivery system. Electric power delivery system information is calculated from measurements by intelligent electronic devices (IEDs), and communicated to a state trajectory prediction system. The state trajectory prediction system may be configured to generate a load prediction profile. The load prediction profile may provide a predicted response of a load at a future time. Further, the state trajectory prediction system may be configured to generate a generator prediction profile that provides a predicted response of a generator at a future time. The state trajectory prediction system may generate a state trajectory prediction based, at least in part, on the load prediction profile and the generator prediction profile. The state trajectory prediction may represent a future state of the electric power delivery system.

The controller may include an energy packet measurement control to calculate energy packets, perform post-processing actions on the energy packets to generate processed energy packets, and convert the processed energy packets into a fuel valve reference. Post-processing may include a calibration correction to remove measurement artifacts.
