Power Quality Analysis at Murdoch University 71 Appendix Part C: Calculation of Voltage Unbalance Based on the following equations: UBF = √ 1 − √3 − 6β 1 + √3 − 6β ∗ 100 (37) Where: β = |V ry | 4 + |V yb | 4 + |V br | 4 (|V ry | 2 + |V yb | 2 + |V br | 2 ) 2 (38) The IEC 61000 voltage unbalance was calculated as Taking data 12:00:30 am, where V A−B = 416.90, V B−C = 418.10, and V C−A = 417.50 Each of the phase to phase voltages above were raised to power 4 and to power 2 as detailed by Table 4 below. Table 4: Voltage Unbalance Using IEC 61000 Standard Phase to Phase Voltage Voltage (x) (x) 2 (x) 4 V A-B 416.90 173,805.6100 30,208,390,067.4721 V B-C 418.10 174,807.6100 30,557,700,513.9121 V C-A 417.50 174,306.25 30,382,668,789.0625 From the values of Table 4, therefore using the equations in (37) and (38): β = |V A−B | 4 + |V B−C | 4 + |V C−A | 4 (|V A−B | 2 + |V B−C | 2 + |V C−A | 2 ) 2 = 30,208,390,067.4721 + 30,557,700,513.9121 + 30,382,668,789.0625 (173,805.6100 + 174,807.6100 + 174,306.25) 2 = 0.999994 Power Quality Analysis at Murdoch University 72 Voltage unbalance thus is: UBF = √ 1 − √3 − 6β 1 + √3 − 6β ∗ 100 = √ 1 − √3 − 6(0.999994) 1 + √3 − 6(0.999994) ∗ 100 = 0.165984523 % This was repeated for all the values of voltages collected every half second between 12:00:30 am up to 1:45:30 pm. Due to the huge amount of data, excel spreadsheet was used to compute the voltage unbalance and to plot the voltage unbalance variation with time. A large amount of data from the spreadsheet could also not be included in this section. Appendix Part D: Risk Assessment Various risks are associated with conducting this research. The major risk when conducting this project is the risk of electric shock. Indeed, during the data collection stage, when measuring the current, voltage, or frequency. There will be direct exposure to electricity thus the risk of electrocution. Considerable care must therefore be taken and appropriate personal protective equipment used throughout the measurement of the different electrical parameters. Damaged and exposed live parts of the circuits must also be repaired. Other risks related to the project include the use of computers during research and writing of reports where there is a risk of losing data, illness, eye, and back strains because of the computer glare and bad sitting posture. Treatment for these risks includes having a back up of the research on external drives and cloud storage, using a portable computer when ill to minimize movement to the laboratories and library and decreasing the computer brightness in order to reduce eye strain cases due to computer glare. Taking frequent breaks and using adjustable chairs is a solution to back strains caused by bad sitting posture. Download 1.28 Mb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
