  • Diakoptics Method for Calculating Generalized Parameters of Large Power Systems
    Laura Yesmakhanova, Assemgul Zhantlessova, Bibigul Issabekova, Zhanat Issabekov, Dauren Akhmetbaev, et al.
    Eng, 2026
    The growing number of electricity consumers and unstable generation by renewable energy sources (RESs) decrease the efficiency of traditional techniques for modeling large power systems. The diakoptics method is based on structuring a system into subsystems and enables reducing the amount of computation by 2.9 times. However, its classical implementations require successive (iterative) expansion of a scheme, which increases computational time for scaling. This method decomposes a complex system into interacting subsystems with different generation and load characteristics. Generalized parameters are independently calculated for each subsystem and then integrated into the total solution. This significantly reduces the amount of computation, simplifies simulation, optimizes control with allowance for local characteristics, and analyzes intersystem connections to minimize losses and improve stability. This paper suggests not just another Kron calculation but a modification of the diakoptics method, which enables avoiding multiple step-by-step redesigns of a grid by generating generalized parameters based on the complete graph of a system, which significantly reduces computational costs when analyzing large power systems. The method simultaneously considers the entire grid topology. This eliminates successive iterations: if a classical approach requires 13 iterations for a network with 11 nodes and 21 branches, the suggested method performs computation in a single computational cycle. The results show high computational efficiency and practical applicability of the method for large power systems. The suggested approach opens up possibilities for reliability analysis, including redundancy assessment and identification of vulnerable elements, which contributes to an increase in the power system stability under conditions of RES integration.
  • Absolutely Selective Single-Phase Ground-Fault Protection Systems for Bunched Cable Lines
    Aleksandr Novozhilov, Zhanat Issabekov, Timofey Novozhilov, Bibigul Issabekova, Lyazzat Tyulyugenova
    Electricity, 2026
    Electrical energy in urban and industrial power supply networks is mainly transmitted through 6–10-kV cable networks with an isolated neutral, where most lines are made as bunches of cables. Up to 75–90% of electrical faults in these cable networks belong to single-phase ground faults (SGFs), which can cause more severe accidents accompanied by significant economic damage. Widely known simple and directional protections against SGFs are relatively selective and, hence, often incapable of properly responding to SGFs in a network with such lines and detecting a cable with SGFs in the bunch of a damaged line. These disadvantages can be eliminated by using new, simple, and inexpensive, absolutely selective protections capable of detecting a cable with SGFs in a damaged line. We suggest the techniques and devices based on zero-sequence current transformers and ring measuring converters for building up such protection systems. The methods for calculating zero-sequence currents in cables of a bunched cable line, depending on the SGF point and the currents in the responding elements, are developed, as well as a procedure for determining a damaged cable and methods for estimating the responding element thresholds and the length of the protection dead zone.
  • Improving the energy efficiency of two-speed motors through the use of new pole-switched windings

    This article addresses the design and manufacturing of two-speed asynchronous motors with pole-changing windings. The need for developing two-speed motors with a single pole-changing winding is justified from the standpoint of energy and resource efficiency, as well as improved starting performance of high-power electric drives. An analysis of existing pole-changing winding designs is presented, highlighting their practical limitations in industrial applications. A new pole-changing winding with a 4/2 pole ratio and 48 stator slots was developed using the discrete spatial functions method based on star–delta–double star configurations. The electromagnetic characteristics of the proposed winding were analyzed. Based on this design, a new 4A200L8/4U3 two-speed motor was manufactured and tested under production conditions at the energy motors plant. Experimental results show that at p1 = 4 pole pairs the motor delivers P2 = 20 kW with efficiency η = 87%, cos φ = 0.82, I1 = 43 A at slip s = 2.35%, while at p2 = 2 pole pairs it develops P2 = 36 kW with efficiency η = 91.5%, cos φ = 0.906, I1 = 66 A at slip s = 1.5%. The results confirm more efficient utilization of the active magnetic core at lower polarity and demonstrate the feasibility of implementing such motors for energy-saving applications in heavy-duty drives requiring two equivalent operating speeds.
  • Single-Phase Earth-Fault Protection of Power Cable of a Salt-Producing Floating Platform
    Aleksandr Novozhilov, Zhanat Issabekov, Timofey Novozhilov, Bibigul Issabekova, Lyazzat Tyulyugenova
    Energies, 2025
    In this paper, a method to improve the protection of a four-core power cable of a salt-producing floating platform equipped with an automatic breaker with an independent tripping mechanism is suggested. The use of this automatic breaker in combination with a suggested protection device ensures reliable protection of not only the power cables of the platform against all faults but also the personnel of the platform and animals on the reservoir banks against electric shock in the event of a single-phase ground fault in reservoir water. This would be possible due to a voltage sensor made in the form of a metal ring on the power cable and a relay; one terminal of the relay winding is connected to the voltage sensor by a single-core control cable, and the other to the neutral of a power source on the platform. The typically open contacts of this relay are connected to an electric circuit which includes a power source and a coil for an independent tripping mechanism of the automatic breaker. This design ensures reliable operation of the suggested protection device in the event of a single-phase ground fault in the power cable of the platform when underwater cable insulation is damaged.

    In this paper, the object of the research is 110 kV power grids of three regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan: Astana city, Turkestan region and Shymkent city, as well as West Kazakhstan region. Operators of the studied power grids have no idea about the real levels of voltage and current sinusoidality distortion coefficients, as well as about their relationship with other regime and system parameters of power grids. Similar problems may be faced by other grid companies that do not have the appropriate information and measurement infrastructure to monitor the modes of power grids in terms of voltage and current sinusoidality distortion. In the course of the present study, using portable three-phase power quantity and quality analyzers, it was possible to make daily measurements of mode parameters in 41 110 kV transmission lines with a length of 5 to 120 km. The results of measurements showed that in Astana city, the voltage quality is at a satisfactory level, but the distortion coefficient of sinusoidality of current reaches 39 % (the average level for 15 studied lines is 13.3 %) due to the high concentration of non-linear load of consumers. In the South of Kazakhstan, the voltage and current sinusoidality distortion coefficients are relatively moderate, but voltage drops are frequent (sometimes up to 10 % or more) due to the large distance between load centers and relatively high population density. In the power grids of Western Kazakhstan, voltage and current sinusoidality distortion coefficients have high levels (reach 14 % and 70 %, respectively) due to low network load with a large length of transmission lines. The analysis makes it possible to trace the relationship of voltage and current sinusoidality distortion coefficients with such regional characteristics as population density, nature of loads, power losses, voltage and current levels

    Aip Conference Proceedings, 2021
    The article discusses the principles of electrical circuits formation and includes analysis, which showed that two-way feed ring and trunk networks are the most promising and efficient in technical and economic terms. It has also been found that, currently, in a closed configuration network in the normal operating mode of a network with two power sources, one of the lines must be disconnected. This is due to the impossibility to selectively trip a damaged line, in particular, with single phase-to-earth fault (SEF). It describes that the SEF is the main type of electrical damage in 6-10 kV cable networks.
