overhead line with 24 Km length. Two exit lines from GIS substation are connected to
Boushehr power plant generator transformers and other two lines connected to two
400/230kV auto transformers. Auto transformers with 230kV XLPE cables are
connected to 12Km two circuit over head line that energize from Boushehr substation.
At the 230kV side of substation is not any circuit breaker and all of the changing
operational modes are handled with the circuit breakers that are in Boushehr
substation. So, the overhead line capacitor and cables increase the equivalents
capacitor that is challenge to nonlinear reactor of transformers. For investigating the
ferroresonance study in this substation the nonlinear characteristic of autotransformer
considered to analyze the various switching scenarios. In this way the parameters that
influence on ferroresonance are modeled with detail.
2 System Modeling
Elements modeling in power system are main aspect of investigating the case study.
The case study contains the effective elements in ferroresonance study like auto
transformers, three windings transformers, GIS busbars, XLP cables, overhead lines,
surge arresters, circuit breakers, Disconnectors, VTs, CTs. The system topology is
shown at Figure 1.
This equation is of the saame shape as the saturation equation. The first two parts of
this quadratic equation defin
ne 2 asymptotes. The vertical asymptote is defined by Eq.. 2:
(2)
It is a straight line wiith slope Shv and x-axis intercept Xhv. The horizonntal
asymptote is defined by Eq. 4:
(4)
It is a straight line with slope Shh and y-axis intercept Yhh. Chys is the curvatture
of the curve. The smaller iss Chys the closer is the curve to its asymptotes. When the
main shape of the hysteressis curve is defined, the convex branch will be chosen for
upward trajectory and the concave branch for downward trajectory. But these ttwo
branches cannot define a cllosed shape. A translation of this hysteresis curve will ggive
the width of the loop. To translate
t the curve it is needed to translate the asymptootes.
The slopes of the asymptottes do not change, but the axis intercepts will change thheir
sign. As a consequence thee translated curve is being defined by equation (1).Figurre 2
shows the initial curve (u upward trajectory) and the translated curves (downw ward
trajectory).

For modeling the various type of transformer the primary and secondary resistor and
reactance, the nonlinear characteristic and the capacitor between HV-LV, HV-earth,
and LV-earth should be considered (Fig.4). For fitting the measuring data at Flux-
Current characteristic the least square method is used. The raw data and fitting data
are shown on figure 3. With inputting the Fig.3 characteristic to hysteresis model the
hysteresis characteristic parameters calculated on the base of equation (1-5) that are
shown in table 1. Shv/ Ssv is slope of hysteresis/ saturation vertical asymptote, Shh /
Ssh is slope of hysteresis/ saturation horizontal asymptote, Chyst / Csat is Curvature
of the hysteresis/saturation curve.

The PI modeled is used for modeling the XLPE cables and GIS busbar. The various
types are examined like frequency depended (FD) and constant parameters (CP)
model for modeling these elements. In this way, not only the results are more
accuracy than the PI models but also the simulation time increase severely. It should
be considered the reason of selecting this type, is low length of cables. The cable and
GIS busbar lengths are shown on Figure 1.
The 230kV overhead line is 12Km two circuit lines. For modeling this element the
frequency depended model is used that responses appropriate to various range of
frequency appear in system cause of the various ferroresonance modes. One of the
main parameters that have the great affect on ferroresonance overvoltage is the
switching angle. Previous studied believe that worst condition occur at voltage peak
angle but in later studies this subject focused to analyze. In this paper, in order to
verify the influence of switching angle, 50 shots of uniform distribution are used for
the switch using EMTP-RV statistical approach. For the 50 operation study, the
opening angle of the circuit breaker contact has normal distribution and its standard
deviation is 3[ms], the open mean time is at voltage peak time. First, second and third
switching mean time set at 10, 210 and 410 [ms] respectively. The circuit breaker
model accommodates variations in the pole opening speed according to a normal
distribution with a specified standard variation and limited ±3. For every circuit
breaker the grading capacitor equal to 1400 pF is considered as modeled parallel to
statistical switch.

As it concludes, the worst condition occurs when the switching scenarios operate
from Boushehr substation and some GIS busbars are in circuit configuration. In these
scenarios the equivalent capacitor resonance with autotransformers nonlinear
inductance contains the 12Km overhead line capacitor. For evaluating the affective
parameters the scenario 5 is selected and various hysteresis parameters are changing
to observing the effective gain to autotransformer terminals overvoltage. At figure 8
only 4 parameters that various range of them have the high effect to overvoltage value
are reported. In contrast, Changing the various value of the Chys,Shh,Coer,Ssv have
negligible effect on overvoltage.
With decreasing the slope of hysteresis vertical asymptote (Shv) the X-axis
intercept of hysteresis characteristic at positive side of X-axis is increasing and so the
area of hysteresis characteristic becomes more. This process is repeated when the Ssh
is decreasing. This two parameters have the more influences on overvoltage between
four reported parameters.

4 Conclusion
In this paper the ferroresonance study at Iran nuclear energy GIS substation is
investigated with all components detailed modeling and simulation the 19 common
operational scenarios. In this way, 6 critical scenarios are known and at the worst
condition the 8 hysteresis parameters are changed to evaluating the gain of them to
autotransformer terminal overvoltage. First suggestion for preventing the element
distortion at the substation cause of the critical scenarios is isolating the 230KV cable
from overhead line with the circuit breaker. The switching scenarios from Boushehr
substation with this circuit breaker are omitted and all of the critical operational
scenarios can act without dienergize the 12 Km overhead line. Another suggestion is
avoiding acting the critical switching scenarios and uses the 400 KV GIS switches to
handle the common operational scenarios. With changing the hysteresis characteristic
at scenario 5, changing four hysteresis parameters Shv,Ssh,Csat,Ysh have the more
effect on overvoltage value and other parameters have the very low effect.
