Grid Code Frequency Response Working Group System Inertia Antony Johnson, System Technical Performance Overview Grid Code Frequency Response Working Group System Inertia Antony Johnson, System Technical Performance Overview Background to System Inertia Transmission System need Future Generation Scenarios Initial Study Work International Experience and Manufacturer Capability Transmission System Issues Conclusions Frequency Change Under steady state the mechanical and electrical energy must be balanced When the electrical load exceeds the mechanical energy supplied, the system frequency will fall. The rate of change of frequency fall will be dependant upon the initial Power mismatch and System inertia The speed change will continue until the mechanical power supplied to the transmission system is equal to the electrical demand. Why is Inertia Important Inertia is the stored rotating energy in the system Following a System loss, the higher the System Inertia (assuming no frequency response) the longer it takes to reach a new steady state operating frequency. Directly connected synchronous generators and Induction Generators will contribute directly to System Inertia. Modern Generator technologies such as Wind Turbines or wave and tidal generators which decouple the prime mover from the electrical generator will not necessarily contribute directly to System Inertia Under the NGET Gone Green Scenario, significant volumes of new generation are unlikely to contribute to System Inertia What is inertia? The stored energy is proportional to the speed of rotation squared 3 types of event cause a change in frequency Loss of generation (generator, importing HVDC link etc) Loss of load Normal variations in load and generator output Loss of Generator on the system Frequency Falls as demand > generation Stored energy delivered to grid as MW The maths behind inertia 2 H = Inertia constant in MWs / MVA ½Jω J = Moment of inertia in kgm2 of the rotating mass H = ω = nominal speed of rotation in rad/s MVA MVA = MVA rating of the machine Typical H for a synchronous generator can range from 2 to 9 seconds (MWs/MVA) ∂f ∆P ∂f/∂t = Rate of change of frequency = ∆P = MW of load or generation lost ∂t 2H 2H = Two times the system inertia in MWs / MVA Strategic Reinforcements An NGET Future Scenario TRANSMISSION SYSTEM REINFORCEMENTS Dounreay Thurso REINFORCED NETWORK Mybster Stornoway Cassley Dunbeath 400kV Substations Lairg 275kV Substations THE SHETLAND ISLANDS Brora 400kV CIRCUITS Shin 275kV CIRCUITS Mossford Grudie Bridge Major Generating Sites Including Pumped Storage Alness Conon Orrin Elgin Fraserburgh Luichart Ardmore Macduff St. Fergus Connected at 400kV Dingwall Deanie Culligran Keith Strichen Connected at 275kV Inverness Nairn Aigas Blackhillock Dunvegan Kilmorack Peterhead Hydro Generation ‘Gone Green 2020’ Beauly Fasnakyle Dyce Glen Kintore Persley Broadford Morrison Woodhill Willowdale Foyers Ceannacroc Boat of Fort Augustus Garten Clayhills Under Construction or ready to start Tarland Craigiebuckler Redmoss Invergarry Construction subject to consents Quoich Fiddes Fort William Errochty Errochty Power Station Rannoch Plant closures Clunie Bridge of Dun Very strong need case Tummel Lunanhead Bridge Tealing Cashlie Dudhope Arbroath Lochay Lyndhurst Milton of Craigie Killin Charleston Taynuilt Finlarig Cruachan Dalmally Burghmuir Dudhope 12GW Coal & oil LCPD Glenagnes Strong need case St. Fillans Nant Clachan SCOTTISH HYDRO-ELECTRIC Cupar TRANSMISSION Inveraray Glenrothes Sloy Leven Devonside Westfield Redhouse Whistlefield Stirling Kincardine Glenniston 7.5GW nuclear Port Mossmorran Future requirement, but no strong Dunfermline Ann Longannet Bonnybridge Iverkeithing Grangemouth Dunoon Helensburgh Shrubhill Cockenzie need case to commence Dunbar Spango Devol Strathleven Telford Rd.

  • Kinematics, Kinetics, Dynamics, Inertia Kinematics Is a Branch of Classical
    Course: PGPathshala-Biophysics Paper 1:Foundations of Bio-Physics Module 22: Kinematics, kinetics, dynamics, inertia Kinematics is a branch of classical mechanics in physics in which one learns about the properties of motion such as position, velocity, acceleration, etc. of bodies or particles without considering the causes or the driving forces behindthem. Since in kinematics, we are interested in study of pure motion only, we generally ignore the dimensions, shapes or sizes of objects under study and hence treat them like point objects. On the other hand, kinetics deals with physics of the states of the system, causes of motion or the driving forces and reactions of the system. In a particular state, namely, the equilibrium state of the system under study, the systems can either be at rest or moving with a time-dependent velocity. The kinetics of the prior, i.e., of a system at rest is studied in statics. Similarly, the kinetics of the later, i.e., of a body moving with a velocity is called dynamics. Introduction Classical mechanics describes the area of physics most familiar to us that of the motion of macroscopic objects, from football to planets and car race to falling from space. NASCAR engineers are great fanatics of this branch of physics because they have to determine performance of cars before races. Geologists use kinematics, a subarea of classical mechanics, to study ‘tectonic-plate’ motion. Even medical researchers require this physics to map the blood flow through a patient when diagnosing partially closed artery. And so on. These are just a few of the examples which are more than enough to tell us about the importance of the science of motion.

  • Basement Flood Mitigation
    1 Mitigation refers to measures taken now to reduce losses in the future. How can homeowners and renters protect themselves and their property from a devastating loss? 2 There are a range of possible causes for basement flooding and some potential remedies. Many of these low-cost options can be factored into a family’s budget and accomplished over the several months that precede storm season. 3 There are four ways water gets into your basement: Through the drainage system, known as the sump. Backing up through the sewer lines under the house. Seeping through cracks in the walls and floor. Through windows and doors, called overland flooding. 4 Gutters can play a huge role in keeping basements dry and foundations stable. Water damage caused by clogged gutters can be severe. Install gutters and downspouts. Repair them as the need arises. Keep them free of debris. 5 Channel and disperse water away from the home by lengthening the run of downspouts with rigid or flexible extensions. Prevent interior intrusion through windows and replace weather stripping as needed. 6 Many varieties of sturdy window well covers are available, simple to install and hinged for easy access. Wells should be constructed with gravel bottoms to promote drainage. Remove organic growth to permit sunlight and ventilation. 7 Berms and barriers can help water slope away from the home. The berm’s slope should be about 1 inch per foot and extend for at least 10 feet. It is important to note permits are required any time a homeowner alters the elevation of the property.

  • Rotational Motion of Electric Machines
    Rotational Motion of Electric Machines • An electric machine rotates about a fixed axis, called the shaft, so its rotation is restricted to one angular dimension. • Relative to a given end of the machine’s shaft, the direction of counterclockwise (CCW) rotation is often assumed to be positive. • Therefore, for rotation about a fixed shaft, all the concepts are scalars. 17 Angular Position, Velocity and Acceleration • Angular position – The angle at which an object is oriented, measured from some arbitrary reference point – Unit: rad or deg – Analogy of the linear concept • Angular acceleration =d/dt of distance along a line. – The rate of change in angular • Angular velocity =d/dt velocity with respect to time – The rate of change in angular – Unit: rad/s2 position with respect to time • and >0 if the rotation is CCW – Unit: rad/s or r/min (revolutions • >0 if the absolute angular per minute or rpm for short) velocity is increasing in the CCW – Analogy of the concept of direction or decreasing in the velocity on a straight line. CW direction 18 Moment of Inertia (or Inertia) • Inertia depends on the mass and shape of the object (unit: kgm2) • A complex shape can be broken up into 2 or more of simple shapes Definition Two useful formulas mL2 m J J() RRRR22 12 3 1212 m 22 JRR()12 2 19 Torque and Change in Speed • Torque is equal to the product of the force and the perpendicular distance between the axis of rotation and the point of application of the force. T=Fr (Nm) T=0 T T=Fr • Newton’s Law of Rotation: Describes the relationship between the total torque applied to an object and its resulting angular acceleration.

  • PHYS 211 Lecture 5 - Oscillations: Simple Harmonic Motion 5 - 1
    PHYS 211 Lecture 5 - Oscillations: simple harmonic motion 5 - 1 Lecture 5 - Oscillations: simple harmonic motion Text: Fowles and Cassiday, Chap. 3 Consider a power series expansion for the potential energy of an object 2 V(x) = Vo + V1x + V2x + ..., where x is the displacement of an object from its equilibrium position, and Vi, i = 0,1,2... are fixed coefficients. The leading order term in this series is unimportant to the dynamics of the object, since F = -dV/dx and the derivative of a constant vanishes. Further, if we require the equilibrium position x = 0 to be a true minimum in the energy, then V1 = 0. This doesn’t mean that potentials with odd powers in x must vanish, but just says that their minimum is not at x = 0. Thus, the simplest function that one can write is quadratic: 2 V = V2x [A slightly more complicated variant is |x| = (x2)1/2, which is not smooth at x = 0]. For small excursions from equilibrium, the quadratic term is often the leading-order piece of more complex functions such as the Morse or Lennard-Jones potentials. Quadratic potentials correspond to the familiar Hooke’s Law of ideal springs V(x) = kx 2/2 => F(x) = -dV/dx = -(2/2)kx = -kx, where k is the spring constant. Objects subject to Hooke’s Law exhibit oscillatory motion, as can be seen by solving the differential equation arising from Newton’s 2nd law: F = ma => -kx = m(d 2x/dt 2) or d 2x /dt 2 + (k/m)x = 0. We solved this equation in PHYS 120: x(t) = A sin( ot + o) Other functional forms such as cosine can be changed into this form using a suitable choice of the phase angle o.

    A Short History of Physics Bernd A. Berg Florida State University PHY 1090 FSU August 28, 2012. References: Most of the following is copied from Wikepedia. Bernd Berg () History Physics FSU August 28, 2012. 1 / 25 Introduction Philosophy and Religion aim at Fundamental Truths. It is my believe that the secured part of this is in Physics. This happend by Trial and Error over more than 2,500 years and became systematic Theory and Observation only in the last 500 years. This talk collects important events of this time period and attaches them to the names of some people. I can only give an inadequate presentation of the complex process of scientific progress. The hope is that the flavor get over. Bernd Berg () History Physics FSU August 28, 2012. 2 / 25 Physics From Acient Greek: \Nature". Broadly, it is the general analysis of nature, conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves. The universe is commonly defined as the totality of everything that exists or is known to exist. In many ways, physics stems from acient greek philosophy and was known as \natural philosophy" until the late 18th century. Bernd Berg () History Physics FSU August 28, 2012. 3 / 25 Ancient Physics: Remarkable people and ideas. Pythagoras (ca. 570{490 BC): a2 + b2 = c2 for rectangular triangle: Leucippus (early 5th century BC) opposed the idea of direct devine intervention in the universe. He and his student Democritus were the first to develop a theory of atomism. Plato (424/424{348/347) is said that to have disliked Democritus so much, that he wished his books burned.
