The changes concern all stages of interaction with electricity: production, distribution, and con-
sumption. Most items of Ukraine’s energy strategy until 2030 (Law No. 605… 2017) are aimed
at increasing generating capacity and improving electricity quality, but not much attention is paid
to electricity transmission and distribution, and especially new means of increasing transmission
capacity.
Currently, increasing the capacity transmitted over the network requires large investments.
As electricity consumption increases, grid companies have to renovate existing networks with

for higher loads, or the construction of new transmission lines. The latter can be complicated,
especially when the route of the overhead line (OHL) is located in densely populated areas and
sparsely populated areas of private lands, such as national parks, reserves, and other areas where
construction is prohibited (Deepak Selvakumar et al. 2023). Despite the extensive experience

systems and transmission lines are crucial for several reasons. Power systems and transmission
lines are critical infrastructure components. Reliable operation is essential to prevent blackouts,

ensure continuous power supply, and maintain public safety. Clear recommendations help in
the designing of systems that meet these reliability requirements. The optimal design of power
systems and transmission lines can result in cost savings, reduced energy losses, and increased

the late twentieth century. After all, the proposed solutions can often be aimed at solving a single
problem, rather than solving the problem comprehensively. A striking example is the attempt to
use new types of wires in combination with old support structures, or the use of simple methods

AC Transmission Systems), such as SVC, SVC Light, TCSC. An example of such tasks could
be to increase the capacity of any power line. An attractive solution is to install in the corridor
of the power transmission line additional capacitors included in the series compensation circuit
(Hrechko et al. 2023). The series-connected capacitor reduces the reactance of the power line at

not exceed the level at which a dangerous loss of phase stability is possible.

Capacitors connected in series are fully integrated into the power system and use its control,
protection and control mechanisms (Bondarenko et al. 2012). Additionally, they are completely
isolated from the ground. SVC Light technology is the brand name of ABB’s static synchronous
compensator based on insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBT). This technology, based on the
use of voltage converters (VSC), also provides the necessary means to maintain the required

-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission line with a counter-parallel circuit in which priority
is given to voltage support using dual SVC Light systems. Of particular importance in this regard
is the fact that the ability to transmit active power using HVDC Light inserts or in certain areas,
or included in the counter-parallel scheme provides both bidirectional transmission of the active
power component and the dynamic reactive power component. This not only maintains the stabi-
lity of the power transmission regime, but also opens up great opportunities to maintain voltage
at the expense of reserve capacity (Gritsyuk et al. 2022).

The constructed dependences of the calculated characteristics on the magnitude of the split-

is a slight increase in the value of the maximum voltage on the wire. In addition, with incre-

dependences, it can be stated that reducing the maximum value of voltage on the wire and in-
creasing the line power can be done by providing the maximum number of components in the
phase, the maximum value of the splitting step, and the minimum distance between phases. At
the same time, under conditions of actual operation, there are a number of objective limitations
that provide these conditions. In particular, increasing the number of components in the phase
will complicate the design of the phase, which will necessitate an increase in the mechanical

When the phases converge, it is obligatory to consider the possibility of wire collisions,
which is a limiting factor regarding the variation of the value of the splitting step, when the
wires converge in phase. However, the presence of an insulating layer will allow the phases to
converge to much shorter distances than uninsulated, which will completely change the picture

currents and induced EMF from one circuit change the magnitude of the current and voltage of

When determining the cost of compensation for electricity losses in the KSPL considers the

Savings in electricity losses are thus achieved by regulating the phase shift between the cir-
cuits of the SCOHL and thereby, reducing losses on the crown. The cost of SCOHL is assumed
to be equal to 70–80% of the cost of a two-chain traditional OHL. Thus, for SCOHL, the cost is

Latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) devices aid in efficient utilization of alternate energy systems and improve their ability to handle supply–demand fluctuations. A numerical analysis of melting performance in a shell-and-tube LHTES unit in the presence of a direct current (DC) electric field has been performed. The governing equations of fluid flow, heat transfer, electric potential and charge conservation are solved using a customized finite-volume solver built in the open-source framework of OpenFOAM. Enthalpy-porosity method based fixed grid approach is used to track the melt interface. Primary objective of the study is to highlight the interface and flow morphology evolution in the presence of electric field induced flow and to evaluate the melting performance of the LHTES unit. The transient evolution of the melting process in the presence of electric field has been mapped in terms of total liquid fraction, kinetic energy density and mean Nusselt number. The charge injection from the tube surface generates multiple electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow vortices in the liquid region. Thus, the inherent uni-cellular flow structure of the natural convection driven melting is disrupted. The multi-cellular flow structure with stronger velocity distribution enhances mixing and heat transfer. Melting performance at various levels of applied voltages (0≤V≤10kV) in both vertical and horizontal orientations of the LHTES unit has been quantified in terms of charging time and total power storage. The charging time gets shorter and total power storage gets higher with increasing applied voltages. In the vertical orientation, a maximum 82.52% reduction in charging time and 80.85% increase in net power storage is achieved. In the horizontal orientation, weaker buoyancy force leads to stronger influence of the electric field. A maximum of 89.61% reduction in charging time and 88.35% increase in power storage is achieved in the horizontal orientation. The results of this study aid in understanding the mechanism of EHD flow assisted melting and provide a reference for design of a shell-and-tube LHTES unit with improved performance.

The strategy for the development of local low-power systems involves the use of several sources. The efficiency of functioning such systems depends on the purposeful reliability management and it is based on the rational hierarchical connections of their structural components. Coordination of the structure of diversified sources and their participation in the formation of energy balance of micro-energy systems in the conditions of dynamic development of renewable energy is an actual research task. The purpose of research was to develop a method of reliability-cost optimization of structure of micro-energy systems with dissimilar sources, which is based on the use of reliability indicators and cost of electricity. The studies conducted are based on the modern methods of applied statistical analysis, the theory of reliability, the synthesis of complex multi-aggregate systems. Through the implementation of the Markov model and simulation modeling of the functioning of sources, it has been obtained the conditions for optimal formation of the energy balance of micro-energy system with the lowest cost of electricity, considering the reliability indicators. Computational experiments made it possible to obtain the regularities of cost evolution of electricity and to show its dependence on the structure and algorithms of the sources’ functioning. Using a probabilistic modeling method, it has been proved for the first time that the cost of electricity is sensitive to the ratio availability of renewable sources of primary energy. The practical application of results lies in the increase in efficiency of energy islands through the structural and algorithmic optimization of diversified sources (traditional and renewable) based on determining the cost of electricity

Relevance. The most modern and widely applied phenomenological theory, which well describes an entire range of physical characteristics of such processes as elastic and inelastic proton-proton and antiproton-proton scattering at high energies, is the Regge poles method in relativistic theory. Based on a simple amplitude, such as the dipole pomeron, where the pomeron is the Regge pole, the researchers add different terms to it. Using such more complex amplitudes, it is possible to explain well or satisfactorily together not only the experimental data for these reactions obtained at the end of the last century, but also the latest ones obtained at the Large Hadron Collider. Purpose. The purpose of this study is to find numerical values of the amplitude parameters at which the circumferences of the differential cross-sections of elastic proton scattering on protons at high energies are satisfactorily described, and to answer whether the parameters satisfy the obtained constraints. Methods. To find the amplitude parameters, the least squares method is used and minima equations are obtained for the squares of differences between the experimental and theoretical values of these cross-sections. These equations are transcendental, and therefore, they are solved by approximation. Within the framework of successive approximations, a method is selected that ensures fast convergence of the process, namely: the faster descent method or the gradient method. Parameter errors are calculated using a covariance matrix. The statistical acceptability of the model is determined according to the Fischer criterion. Results. Numerical calculations from experimental data of differential cross-sections of elastic pp-scattering were used to find the values of the parameters and the scale multiplier of the amplitude. Differential cross-sections are calculated from the amplitude near the minima. The corresponding graphs of these cross-sections are presented. The coincidence with the experiment is satisfactory in most cases, and in some cases, it is of high quality. A covariance matrix is obtained, from which the errors of the model parameters are found. Under general conditions, restrictions on the found approximate values of parameters are derived. It is shown that they satisfy the constraint. According to the Fischer criterion, the statistical acceptability of the model was verified, which turned out to be positive. Conclusions. The proposed simple amplitude ensures that the Froissard constraint and unitarity are met. It will serve as a seed for constructing more complex amplitudes that will describe a wide range of experiments on proton-proton and antiproton-proton scattering at high energies.

With rapid development of HVDC transmission system, the coupling relationship between the AC and DC power grid has become increasingly stronger. Especially, the problem of voltage instability is prominent in HVDC receiving-end system, the dynamic reactive power performance of the receiving-end power grid is inadequate. Therefore, the new-generation synchronous condenser (NGSC) as ‘a strong reactive power support device” is widely applied to high-capacity DC transmission system. However, there is a lack of coordination control strategy between the NGSCs and AC/DC power grid, so it is difficult to give full play to the reactive power supporting capacity of the NGSCs. In this paper, a coordinated multi-objective reactive control strategy between the NGSCs and the AC/DC power grid is proposed . In steady state, the initial reactive power optimization method of a NGSC is proposed. In transient state, a commutation failure suppression scheme of DC system based on the NGSCs and the DC control system is proposed. In transition process, the coordinated control strategy of the NGSCs with capacitance and reactance is studied. The research results provide theoretical basis for subsequent study on the safety and stability of AC/DC power grid.

In the event of grid faults, the disconnection of a large capacity distributed generation (DG) may compromise grid stability. To address this challenge, grid codes in many countries have incorporated fault ride-through capability that requires the DG to remain connected to the grid for a stipulated time and regulate the voltage at the point of common coupling (PCC). A voltage support scheme (VSS) aims at restoring the PCC voltage within stipulated limits by injecting suitable currents. To restore the voltage under asymmetrical faults, a conventional VSS requires unequal current injection. As the phase current of the highest amplitude hits the rating of the inverter, the voltage support capability of the DG is compromised. The VSS proposed in this article aims to minimize the highest phase current while maintaining the same voltage support at PCC. The reduction in the highest phase current, in turn, provides reserve voltage support capability. The proposed scheme works well for all types of grid impedances, and the optimum points are found to be independent of the grid impedance. This independence of the optimum points simplifies the implementation of the proposed VSS. The simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed VSS.

3D printing technologies for large-scale structures allow architects and builders to considerably expand the design boundaries of structures and increase the efficiency of their construction. Mobile robotic platforms for 3D printing are increasingly being implemented in the construction sector, as well as in the production of road surfaces, allowing to solve the problem of limited working space. The typical design of the extruder assembly of a robotic platform for 3D printing large-scale structures can be improved by combining an electric motor, an auger extruder, and a heater in one housing. The proposed auger-type electrothermomechanical converter uses an external auger rotor, which simultaneously performs the functions of an asynchronous motor rotor, a heating element, an actuator, and a protective housing. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of using an auger converter as part of a mobile robotic platform for additive manufacturing. For converters operating in difficult conditions, the use of field calculation methods is relevant. In this study, a field calculation was performed using the finite element method and the spatial distribution of eddy currents in the section of the hollow ferromagnetic rotor was found. Pictures of the three-dimensional distribution of the z-component, the normal component of the density of eddy currents, as well as the distribution of the dissipated power density, which considers all types of losses in the rotor, were obtained using the Comsol Multiphysics software and computing complex. The practical value of the obtained results lies in the possibility of predicting optimal indicators of the influence of the thermal regime on the material, as well as the speed of rotation of the converter rotor. This will determine the mechanical properties of the material at the output of the device.
