Assessment of the Effect of Corona Discharge on Synchronous Generator Self-Excitation

The method of operative determination of active power losses (both loading and crown) in alternating current lines has been improved. The proposed technique allows monitoring of active power losses in lines. Based on the comparative analysis of different approximation methods, the most effective method of analytical representation of regression dependences of active power losses on the corona on voltage for different weather conditions is proposed. The validity and reliability of scientific statements, conclusions, and recommendations given in the dissertation are confirmed by the analysis of the results of comparative calculations performed for different models. The efficiency of the developed algorithms and programs was tested on control examples with reference source data, where the results of the calculations were compared with the results obtained by standard programs. The developed technique of operative determination of losses of active power (loading and on a crown) allows one to carry out current monitoring of losses and passive parameters of high-voltage power lines of alternating current. The phenomena of self-excitation of generators connected to unloaded power lines are considered at great length. A physical analysis of the ongoing processes is given, and calculation methods are proposed that have been experimentally tested on a dynamic model. The paper takes into account the effect of the wire corona on the conditions of self-excitation of generators with the necessary developments to prevent this negative phenomenon in the main electrical network. Models and methods have been developed for evaluating the effect of the wire corona on the conditions for the occurrence of self-excitation in ultra-high voltage transmission lines.
