Ferramenta trifásica para síntese e análise da proteção em sistemas desequilibrados

Abstract

This thesis proposes a computacional tool for synthesis and analysis of protection in electricity subtransmission and distribution systems in presence of imbalances. Such systems, in particular distribution, are generally unbalanced, and can contain mono-, bi- or triphasic sections, and operate with asymmetrically distributed loads, which makes electrical quantities observed different for each phase analyzed. In this work were developed two methods, which have been implemented in the proposed tool: (i) automatic procedures for optimal settings of protection devices in unbalanced distribution systems; (ii) method for graphical analysis of protection’s performance applied to unbalanced systems. The proposed tool was developed in MatLab and also allows the synthesis of overcurrent (using a Genetic Algorithm) and distance settings and calculates the transformation ratios to PTs and CTs. The tool is calibrated by comparing the results obtained by the same with those obtained by actual equipment protection, has also been made tests with different systems in the literature.
