Hello everyone, I am Monika.
2
I am here to present back -to -back stations.
3
Let's see.
4
What is back -to -back?
5
Generally, in electronics and power electronics, if two bipolar components are connected in series with opposite polarity, then this pair is known as back -to -back system.
6
As same as in electrical, rectifiers and inverters are identical
7
and connected in series is known as back -to -back system from this diagram here rectifier
8
and the inverter are connected in series via a hvdc link
9
and it is also a hvdc back -to -back link a back -to -back hvdc link the hvdc system
10
which transfers energy between two ac buses at the same location is called as back -to -back system
11
or an hvdc coupling system in other words the converters
12
and rectifiers are installed and operates on high voltage DC in the same stations.
13
Hence there is no DC transmission line.
14
So it reduces the overall conversion cost and improve the reliability of the DC system.
15
Such type of system is designed for bipolar operation.
16
This picture shows the bipolar link of a back -to -back link.
17
A bipolar link has two conductors.
18
One is positive and the other one is negative.
19
This link has two converter stations at each end.
20
The midpoint of the converter station is connected to the air through the electrodes.
21
Next, we are going to see about the construction of back -to -back HPDC link.
22
The main components are converter station, converter unit, converter vaults, converter transformer,
23
filters, high frequency filter, reactive power source, smoothening reactors and then system port.
24
What do you mean by converter walls?
25
There are two types of converter walls.
26
One is the sending end converter and then receiving end converter.
27
The sending end converter act as a rectifier which converts AC into DC.
28
The receiving end converter act as a inverter which converts DC into AC.
29
What are converter transformers?
30
These are transformers
31
which are used before the rectification of ac in the hvdc system filters filters may be ac
32
or dc what is the use of high frequency filters these
33
are provided to suppress the high frequency currents what do you mean by smoothening reactors smoothening reactors are those
34
which is used on the dc side to smoothen the dc current as well as the production purposes
35
This shows the simple block diagram of back -to -back HPDC link.
36
From the system 1, AC current is converted into DC by means of rectifier
37
and current DC is supplied via DC link
38
and it is converted back again to AC by means of inverter and then distributed to the different grids.
39
It shows the simple block diagram.
40
Working principle of back -to -back link.
41
Two independent neighboring transmission systems with incompatible electrical parameters such as frequency
42
or voltage level or short -circuit power level are connected via a DC link.
43
The basic principle operation of HPDC linking system is based on the conversion of AC to DC
44
and vice versa by means of converter volts power from two
45
or more system is first converted into dc by means of power rectifier system
46
and then summed up after summing of the resultant power is
47
again converted into ac with the help of power inverter
48
and then supplied to different grids the process involved in here is simple only by theoretical
49
but in practical it is very much complex as it involves high voltages
50
and power semiconductor devices what are the needs for back -to -back stations we all know
51
that high voltage ac is used to transmit the electrical power for reducing power transmission losses
52
in a transmission system different grids are interconnected but sometime it might happen
53
that one or more grids or power systems may not be in synchronization with other grids
54
or there exist a weak link between different power systems due
55
to various factors to overcome these problems hvdc back -to -back system is created it also can be used
56
when two asynchronous ac system need to be interconnected for a bulk power transmission
57
and also for the stabilization processes these are the some examples of back -to -back stations mcnell hvdc back -to -back station,
58
HVDC back -to -back link commissioned between India and Bangladesh, Chandrapur HVDC back -to -back station, Vaisak back -to -back station, Windyashal back -to -back station.
59
We will see them one by one in the following slides.
60
McNeil HVDC Back -to -Back Station A back -to -back station
61
is a series of HVDC interconnectors between the unsynchronized eastern and western AC systems of United States and Canada.
62
It connects the power grids of Canadian provinces at Alberta and Saskatchewan.
63
The station was built by Geck -Alstom,
64
was commissioned in 1989, with the power capacity about 150 megawatt at a DC voltage of 42 kilovolt.
65
This picture shows the back -to -back station at Alberta.
66
Mechanical station was notable for operating with low short -circuit ratio.
67
What do you mean by short -circuit ratio?
68
Short -circuit ratio is a measure of how strong or weak the connected AC system is.
69
Most of the HVDC schemes uses line commutated converters with SCR about 3,
70
but McNeill's scheme was designed to operate with an effective SCR which is even less than 1 .0 on the SASCAT7 side.
71
So hence it was the only SCR with the lowest value
72
ever achieved with the line commutated hvdc converter it is also
73
considered as the first hvdc station to use three phase four winding converter transformer the transformer
74
which are connected at the 138 glow volt at alberta side
75
and 230 glow volt on the saskatchi one side the number of poles used in this link is about only one Next,
76
we are going to see about Indo -Bangladesh link, a SVDC back -to -back link commissioned between India and Bangladesh.
77
This Indo -Bangladesh link was commissioned by Siemens.
78
Here, two back -to -back links are installed.
79
The block one is in operation since 2013 with a capacity of 500 megawatts.
80
Siemens recently announced that in June 2020, it fully commissioned the second block of hvdc back -to -back
81
line in barhamara at bangladesh to connect the electricity supply network to india
82
and bangladesh with the transmission capacity of 500 megawatts hence a total capacity is up to 1000 megawatt
83
which is the highest reliable power capacity in bangladesh Siemens is a world leader in HVDC technology,
84
which has installed more than 55 projects worldwide with an overall capacity of 94 GW.
85
This picture shows the back -to -back stations at Biramara at Bangladesh.
86
This is the map which shows the back -to -back HVDC link between India and Bangladesh.
87
Here, from Biramara, at the western border of Bangladesh,
88
a 230 kV grid of the country will be connected via substation and OH lines to India's 400 kV grid,
89
which is located at Baharampur.
90
Next, we are going to see about Chandrapur back -to -back HVDC station.
91
It is a back -to -back HVDC connection between western and southern regions in India located close to the city of Chandrapur.
92
Its main purpose is to export power from the Chandrapur Super Thermal Power Station to the southern regions of Indian National Grid.
93
This picture shows the power station at Chandrapur.
94
It was owned by Power Grid Corporation of India and the installer for the substation is Gek Alstom and commissioned in 1997.
95
7 with a power capacity of 500 megawatts at a dc
96
voltage of 205 kilo volt at each pole next we are
97
going to see about why is a back -to -back hvdc
98
station why is a back -to -back hvdc station is a back -to -back hvdc station connection between the eastern
99
and southern regions in india located close to the city of Viswagapatnam in the state of Andhra Pradesh.
100
It was owned by Power Grid Corporation of India.
101
It has two substations namely VISAG -1
102
and VISAG -2 commissioned in 1999 by Alstom
103
and the latter in 2005 by ABB
104
which has a power capacity of 500 megawatts
105
and a DC voltage of 205 kilovolt at ysac 1 and 176 kilovolt at ysac 2.
106
It consists of two independent poles.
107
The station is no longer required for its original purpose of linking eastern and southern grids,
108
although it can be still used as an embedded power flow device to help control power flow within the AC system.
109
Next, we can see recent developments.
110
Power Grid Corporation of India has chosen Siemens to upgrade India's oldest HVDC link,
111
which is the India's oldest HPDC link.
112
Any guess, Vintiachal back -to -back HPDC link is the India's oldest link.
113
And Siemens has been chosen by Power Grid of India to modernize it.
114
Next, we can see some of the advantages of back -to -back HPDC link.
115
Power can be upgraded to desired frequency then two asynchronous systems can be joined successfully without loss of stability
116
stability of the system is increased as well as power flow can be maintained within the limits
117
more active power can be added where the ac system is
118
already at the limit of short circuit capability then it also
119
helps in the stabilization of weak ac signals weak ac links thank you

シャドーイングとは?英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング(Shadowing)は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的:ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影(shadow)」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
