Abstract: This paper addresses the steady state, the frequency characteristics and the transient response ofpower lines in the presence of longitudinally varying ambient temperature. This variation willlead to location-dependent line circuit parameters and to a changing equivalent circuit. Thederived models, which are based on the exact long line theory, can incorporate the impact of thedifferent patterns of the temperature distribution in terms of location and magnitude. Severalcase studies of the resulting …

Harmonic Estimation and its Compensation using D-STATCOM for a Steel Manufacturing Plant
Abstract: Electrical power system having distorted voltage and current waveform generates harmonics. The compensation of the harmonics is greatly required for better performance of the power system. Harmonic is of major concern for the power system containing electric arc furnace (EAF). Since the nature of the arc is highly non-linear and time varying and therefore harmonic analysis becomes important to know the behavior of the power system. This paper presents the …
