Verification of the Vdip method on the physical model of the MV network
Krčál, Vít ; Drápela, Jiří (referee) ; Topolánek, David (advisor)
This Master's thesis is focused on creating of an algorithm which calculates changes of negative-sequence voltages and currents from their instantaneous values. That allows to conduct localization of asymmetrical faults in MV network in line with the Vdip method, which is based on monitoring the changes of negative-sequence components at distribution substations and at a sub-transmission station. The algorithm is being developed in Matlab environment with continuous implementation of partial procedures which are being assessed and compared with each other. A study of phasor estimating methods is carried out with pointing out related problems which are mainly caused by Ripple control and deviation of system frequency from its nominal value. Optimization precautions are designed to mitigate these problems. For elimination of the Ripple control effects a method based on averaging is presented. The deviation of system frequency is dealt with by resampling the original data recordings. The analysis processes are tested by both simulation signals and real measured data. The optimized algorithm enables precise calculation of negative-sequence components changes which is the main contribution of this thesis. The constructed algorithm is used in verification of the Vdip method on physical model of MV network. For these purposes a simple distribution network is created within which ground faults on different places and with different resistances are realised. The results of localization are not convincing which is mainly caused by specific features of laboratory power line models which are constructed with heterogenous parameters.

Protection for Generator Unbalance
Kuba, Petr ; Paar, Martin (referee) ; Orságová, Jaroslava (advisor)
The thesis deals with the problem of unbalance in generators and discusses various means of generator protection against the effects caused by this abnormal working condition. The general importance of the problem is described in the introductory part of this work. The theoretical section of the thesis contains an analysis of procedures applied to solve different types of unbalance by the help of the method of symmetrical components. As a central aspect of the topic, the causes of unbalance are examined. This investigation is realized together with a close insight into the diverse possibilities of unbalance reduction and, importantly, in respect the effects of negative sequence current on a generator and its components. The principles of generator protection against unbalance are described at the end of this section. In its practical part, this work deals with the procedure of protection setting and testing. The applied protection is an actual component of the REM 543 machine terminal as made by the ABB company. In order to facilitate the testing of the protection, we used the TZO3 electrical protection testing device provided by the EGÚ Brno, a. s. company. A summary of the most important information and measurement results can be found in the final part of the thesis.

Short-circuit Calculation of Local Distribution Network
Byrtus, Jiří ; Paar, Martin (referee) ; Topolánek, David (advisor)
This thesis deals with transient phenomena in the electricity grid - especially with short-circuits. First part describes short-circuit types, reasons for their commencement and also consequences of their functioning. The thesis further shows waveforms of short-circuit currents and its components. A method of calculating short-circuits currents, using the constituent systems and the basic equations for calculating short-circuit impedances are also mentioned here. Relations and methods are based on valid standards of IEC 60909 – 0. The second part indicates the calculation of two-phase and three-phase short-circuit currents for specific network of industrial building. This calculation aims to verify the dimensioning of substations for short-circuit currents after connecting a synchronous generator with given power to the main substation.
