A novel dynamic equivalence method for grid-connected wind farm

Dynamic equivalence of the wind farm is a fundamental problem in the simulation of a power system connected with wind farms because it is unpractical to model every generator in a wind farm in detail. In this paper, an Equivalence Method based on the Output Characteristics (EMOC) is proposed, with which the wind farm composed of Squirrel-Cage Induction Generators (SCIGs) can be equivalent to one generator. By considering the diversity of wind generators and special operating characteristics of a wind farm, the equivalent generator based on EMOC responds accurately in various faults. No matter whether the wind farm is integrated in grid or just programmed, EMOC can be used to acquire an accurate equivalent generator. Simulation of the dynamic equivalence of an SCIG wind farm validated the method.

Dynamic Equivalence Theory and Advertisement Translation

With the fast globalization of the whole world and the intimate international cooperation of enterprises, translation is playing a more and more essential role, espeically in advertisemnts where enterprises want to establish a positive and healthy image in the competitive world market to promote their products and make more profits. Since Nida proposed his famous theory of dynamic equivalence, the English-Chinese advertisemnts translation has no longer been so mechanic and achieved more beauties. The translation of advertisement and trademark tends towards simplicity and visualization in association with the theory of dynamic equivalence, the objective criterion of translation proposed by Nida, emphasizing the inside connotation. Information is transformed during the process by analyzing carefully, distinguishing accurately, and processing flexibly in different situations so that translators can keep the information in high fidelity and gain dynamic equivalence.

Fast emergency control strategy calculation based on dynamic equivalence and integral sensitivity

To simplify the transient stability analysis of a large-scale power system and realize real-time emergency control,a fast transient stability simulation algorithm based on real-time dynamic equivalence is proposed.Generator models are grouped and aggregated according to a fast numerical integration.A fast calculation method of the admittance matrix is then proposed to calculate the parameters of an equivalent system,and numerical integration is performed using the obtained equivalent system.Then,based on integral sensitivity,a new fast emergency control strategy is proposed for the equivalent system.The final emergency control strategy is obtained by mapping the control strategy for the equivalent system back to the original system.The results of a simulation on an East China Power System that includes 496 generators and 5075 buses show that the suggested algorithm can output an accurate transient stability simulation result and form an effective emergency control strategy.The proposed algorithm is much faster than the existing solutions and has the potential to be used for online pre-decision.

Dynamic Equivalent Modeling for Black-box Microgrids Under Multi-operating-point by Using LSTM

Since the high penetration of distributed energy sources complicates the dynamics of electrical power systems,accurate dynamic models are indispensable for study on the transient behavior of the microgrid(MG).In some practices,the lack of full detailed information results in failure of dif-ferential equation based dynamic modeling,which leads to a demand for a black-box MG modeling method.It is a critical challenge to maintain the effectiveness of the black-box model under a wide operating range and various fault conditions.In this paper,inspired by the mathematical equivalence between the recurrent neural network(RNN)and differential-algebraic equations(DAEs),a dynamic equivalent modeling method,using long short-term memory(LSTM),is presented to tackle this challenge.At first,the modeling equivalence and advantages of our basic idea are explained.Then,modeling procedures,including data preparation and design guidelines,are presented.Finally,the proposed method is applied to a multi-microgrid testing system for performance evaluation.The results,under various scenarios,reveal that the proposed modeling method has an adequate capability for representing the dynamic behaviors of a black-box MG under grid fault and operating point changing conditions.Index Terms-Deep learning,dynamic behavior,dynamic equivalent model,microgrid,neural network.

Sub-synchronous frequency domain-equivalent modeling for wind farms based on rotor equivalent resistance characteristics

The equivalent simplification of large wind farms is essential for evaluating the safety of power systems.However,sub-synchronous oscillations can significantly affect the stability of power systems.Although detailed mathematical models of wind farms can help accurately analyze the oscillation mechanism,the solution process is complicated and may lead to problems such as the“dimensional disaster.”Therefore,this paper proposes a sub-synchronous frequency domain-equivalent modeling method for wind farms based on the nature of the equivalent resistance of the rotor,in order to analyze sub-synchronous oscillations accurately.To this end,Matlab/Simulink is used to simulate a detailed model,a single-unit model,and an equivalent model,considering a wind farm as an example.A simulation analysis is then performed under the sub-synchronous frequency to prove that the model is effective and that the wind farm equivalence model method is valid.

Laszlo Marton＇s Three Short Novels as a Translational Challenge

This paper deals with the problems encountered while translating the book of short novels M. L., a gyilkos （The Murderer L. M.）, written by the contemporary Hungarian author Lazlo Marton （b. 1959）. One of the most important reasons why the translator of this book （who also happens to be the author of this paper） has chosen to translate into Serbian this particular book, and not some other, more famous work of Marton, lies in the thematic, geocultural, and historical parallels with the Serbian context, which form the main fabular line of these short stories. The other, from the perspective of this paper, even more relevant reason for this translational choice can be found in the non-everyday challenge that Marton＇s hardly translatable style and language pose to the translator. This kind of a situation almost requires that the translator sacrifices formal fidelity to the original text and tries to find more creative solutions; in other words, it suggests choosing the principle of the so-called dynamic equivalence over the formal equivalence principle. In this respect, a special problem is the need to translate the so-called ＂talking names＂, a narrative trick with a great tradition in Hungarian literature. The aim of this paper is to try to answer, with the use of a representative corpus of examples, the following question： Is it possible and where can we draw limits in this author-translation related field of play, and what should be the level of consistency allowed to the translator, i.e., to what extent can he/she become the ＂coauthor＂of the translated work？

Ways to Translate a Newly-Introduced Concept

Translation is a complicated thinking and a practicing process,which involves many theories and skills.According to the theory of dynamic equivalence and based on literature studies as well as personal practical experiences,three viewpoints have been proposed in this article to discuss on how to translate a newly-introduced concept;namely,giving full consideration to the meaning of newly-introduced concepts,paying attention to the evolution of the concepts,and seeking for a similar meaning in the traditional classics of a nation,each of which is exemplified in order to facilitate understanding.

Comments on Eugene A. Nida＇s Translation Theory

This paper attempts to illustrate Nida's Dynamic Equivalence in translation from culture. Because of different cultural and historical settings, it's not easy to achieve absolute equivalent in translation. As a translator, one should have the knowledge of both the source language and the receptor language. Meanwhile one should respect different customs and traditions so as to provide a better version for the readers.

Attenuation-type and failure-type curve models on accumulated pore water pressure in saturated normal consolidated clay

Based on dynamic triaxial test results of saturated soft clay, similarities of variations between accumulated pore water pressure and accumulated deformation were analyzed. The Parr＇s equation on accumulated deformation was modified to create an attenuation-type curve model on accumulated pore water pressure in saturated normal consolidation clay. In this model, dynamic strength was introduced and a new parameter called equivalent dynamic stress level was added. Besides, based on comparative analysis on variations between failure-type and attenuatiun-type curves, a failure-type curve model was created on accumulated pore water pressure in saturated normal consolidation clay. Two models can take cycle number, coupling of static and dynamic deviator stress, and consolidation way into consideration. The models are verified by test results. The correlation coefficients are more than 0.98 for optimization of test results based on the two models, and there is good agreement between the optimized and test curves, which shows that the two models are suitable to predict variations of accumulated pore water pressure under different loading cases and consolidation ways. In order to improve prediction accuracy, it is suggested that loading cases and consolidation ways should be consistent with in-situ conditions when dynamic triaxial tests are used to determine the constants in the models.
