XLPE cables are widely used in urban distribution systems because of their excellent mechanical, heat and electrical properties. However, water tree, formed due to the existence of water and intense electric field, is one of the primary causes of aging breakdown. There used to be several methods, such as insulation impedance method and DC leakage current method for the detection of bridged water tree, which are non-effective for the diagnosis of non-bridged one. Residual Charge Method is known for its effectiveness in the diagnosis of non-bridged one. In this paper, pulse voltage is applied to the DC voltage charged XLPE cable after grounding. It is called 'Pulsed-type Residual Charge Method' which is found to be more effective for the diagnosis of non-bridged water tree. The effects of DC voltage, grounding time and pulse voltage on the amount of residual charge are studied. Also, the releasing mechanism of residual charge by pulse is discussed. Accumulated results show that the improved method has a high resolution for the diagnosis of water tree degradation degree.

A new methodology for obtaining the optimal power flow with transient stability constraints is proposed in this paper. The main algorithm decomposes the problem into conventional optimal power flow and optimal control sub-problems, which are solved independently. In the process of optimal control, the transient stability index expressed by semi-infinite dimension constraints is converted into two dimensional inequality constraints by integration of angle and voltage, respectively. The optimal control direction is formed by the gradient of control variables, which is obtained by solving the system trajectory expressed by the differential algebraic equations and trajectory sensitivity expressed by the linear time-dependent dynamic system. Test results on the New England 39-bus power system have verified the effectiveness and reliability of the proposed methodology.

This paper investigates the concerns associated with the previously proposed optimal coordinated voltage emergency control (OCVEC) model. The issues in concern include the influence of control delay on the performance of OCVEC, the effects of parameter errors of load model on the OCVEC performance, and the methodology to select the vulnerable buses being included in the voltage stability performance index. In addition, the computational complexity of OCVEC model is assessed.

A genetic learning scheme is proposed for coordinated voltage control (CVC). This leaning control combines GA with a long term memory. The optimal search of GA can refine the knowledge in memory. At the same time, stored knowledge can be exploited to improve the search of GA. This learning strategy provides a fast voltage control and the control performance can be improved gradually.

A micro-grid can increase the reliability of energy supplies by disconnecting from the grid in the case of network faults or reduced power quality. The techniques that have been investigated to control micro-grids in both modes are summarized as well as those proposed to maintain stability during the transitions from one mode to the other. This paper first introduces the micro-grid planning structure in Shandong Electric Power Research Institute (SEPRI) and discusses the various feasible control approaches used and presents for micro-grid. Then, based on modeling different types of distributed generations and energy storage equipment, the SEPRI Micro-Grid model was simulated with several operating modes under peer to peer control strategy. The importance of an energy storage to assist stability during transition between the operating modes is emphasized.

This paper presents a novel combined algorithm based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) and simulated annealing algorithm(SA) for power system reactive optimization. According to the characteristics of PSO and SA, the proposed method which combined PSO and SA efficiently makes good use of easily implementing performance and fast convergence performance of PSO and global convergence performance of SA, and makes them search in phase. This paper detailed explains coding of control variables, selecting of parameters and material steps of combined algorithm for optimizing reactive power. Taking the IEEE 14-bus system, IEEE 57-bus system and IEEE 118-bus system for example, the simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method is simple and easy to implement, and has high computing efficiency and comparing with conventional PSO it can obtain higher quality solutions.

A good black-start scheme is important and necessary to resume power supply fast and efficiently after black out, and how to choose black-start power is the first thing to consider in the scheme. In this paper, the advantages of VSC-HVDC as black start power are analyzed with contrast to traditional black start power. The ability of VSC-HVDC to soft energize major power system equipment is proved through simulation by software PSCAD/EMTDC. Simulation waveforms during soft energization are illustrated. These plots have described the good voltage and frequency characteristics of VSC-HVDC. The transition from one control mode of VSC to another is also discussed. Simulation results indicate that by using soft energization, VSC-HVDC is an ideal black start power.

Home automation systems based on wireless sensor/actuator networks are characterized by diversity of node power sources, limited computational power, and mobility. We propose a routing protocol that fully uses the location of static nodes to limit the search for a route to a small zone based on the analysis of characteristics and requirements. The calculation of two different kinds of zone and the route discovery procedure are described in this paper. According to the environment of home automation, we compared the performance of our routing protocols with the ad-hoc on-demand distance-vector protocol using simulation and gave suggestions for zone selection. Simulation results showed that our routing protocol dramatically reduced the routing overhead and increased the reliability.

We address robust stabilization problem for networked controlsystems with nonlinear uncertainties and packet losses by modelling such systems as a class of uncertain switched systems. Based on theories on switched Lyapunov functions, we derive the robustly stabilizing conditions for state feedback stabilization and design packet-loss dependent controllers by solving some matrix inequalities. A numerical example and some simulations are worked out to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.

An assembly line balancing method based on Genetic algorithm (GA) and visual simulation is proposed for the assembly line dynamic balancing in order to take into account more factors in addition to the implicit factors. Firstly, the assembly line virtual digital model is created based on systematic layout planning (SLP). Secondly, the GA for solving assembly line dynamic balancing is presented on the conditions that minimize the number of stations and the tasks assigned to a set of workstations with the same cycle time. In the view of assembly line visual modelling and simulation, the visual simulation based on eM-plant is adopted. This system framework and simulation process is discussed. The assembly line balancing system is developed based on the object-oriented language VC++6.0 with the access database. The gear-box assembly line case is studied by using this system. The results showed the method is valid and effective. It can be used to provide the technology support for improving the production efficiency and redesigning the assembly line for the manufacturing plant.
