Induced voltages in metallic pipelines due to lightning strikes to nearby power lines (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Installing pipelines in energy utility corridors containing high-voltage AC transmission lines subjects the pipelines to induced AC voltages which is a real and serious problem which can place both operator safety and pipeline integrity at risk. In c... Read More about Induced voltages in metallic pipelines due to lightning strikes to nearby power lines.

New studies on network frequency responses considering dynamic loads (2019)
Journal Article

The dynamic model construction of transmission network components that include generator buses, load buses and power branches, within MATLAB-Simulink environment is presented. The degree of frequency deviation of buses when the power of motor loads a... Read More about New studies on network frequency responses considering dynamic loads.

Optimal distribution power system reconfiguration using Genetics Algorithms and Branch exchange method (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper uses Genetic Algorithms (GAs) and the branch exchange method to solve the optimal reconfiguration in radial distribution systems subject to power loss reduction that determine the optimal switches. The GA is a relatively powerful intellige... Read More about Optimal distribution power system reconfiguration using Genetics Algorithms and Branch exchange method.

Modeling dynamic frequency control with power reserve limitations (2018)
Journal Article

The frequency variation of a power system depends on the relationship between power generation and consumption. Increase in loads, losses or inclusion of renewable energies will lead to inaccurate controllability of the network frequency, which is th...

Improved water pumping station supply systems (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The electrical grid experiences high demand during peak energy times (Triads) and so financial penalty charges are applied to discourage large industrial consumers. Onsite power generation through employment of gas engines mitigated during ‘Triad’ pe... Read More about Improved water pumping station supply systems.
