  • Patent number: 11894181
    Abstract: A method determines the overload capacity of a high-voltage device. The method includes creating a load forecast request for a predefined time period, determining an operational state of the high-voltage device by obtaining state parameters, transmitting the load forecast request and the state parameters at a request time to a load-forecasting model, and determining the maximum utilization in the predefined time period by the load-forecasting model, with which the overload capacity of a high-voltage device can be fully exploited. A lifetime consumption of the high-voltage device before the request time is derived from measured values by obtaining an actually consumed lifetime and the actually consumed lifetime is fed to the load-forecasting model as a state parameter. The load-forecasting model then determines the maximum overload capacity depending on the actually consumed lifetime.

  • Publication number: 20230273270
    Abstract: A method determines an overload capacity of at least one high-voltage device. In which method, measurement values are continuously recorded by sensors located in or on the high-voltage device. The measurement values and/or values derived therefrom are transmitted via a near field communication connection from the sensors to a communication unit of the high-voltage device. The communication unit is connected to a data processing cloud. For high-voltage devices, a load forecast request is created for a predetermined time-period and is transmitted to a data processing cloud. For each high-voltage device, a state parameter is determined in part based on the measurement values. The load forecast request and each state parameter are transmitted at a request time to a load forecasting model; and the load forecasting model determines the maximum load in the predetermined time period.

  • Patent number: 11489340
    Abstract: In order to create a full variable shunt reactor having two magnetically controllable high-voltage throttles which is compact and at the same time can also provide capacitive reactive power, auxiliary windings are used which are inductively coupled to the high-voltage throttles. The auxiliary windings are connected to at least one capacitively acting component.

  • Patent number: 11289911
    Abstract: A device is for reactive power compensation in a high-voltage network having a phase conductor. The device has a first high-voltage terminal, which is configured to be connected to the phase conductor. For each first high-voltage terminal, a first and a second core section, which are part of a magnetic circuit, a first high-voltage winding, which encloses the first core section, and a second high-voltage winding are provided. Moreover, the device has a saturation switching branch, which saturates the core sections and has controllable power semiconductor switches. A control unit is used to control the power semiconductor switches. The first and the second high-voltage windings are connected by the high-voltage end to the associated first high-voltage terminal and on the low-voltage side can be connected to one or the saturation switching branch. To be able to be connected in series into the high-voltage network, a second high-voltage terminal is provided.

  • Publication number: 20220085732
    Abstract: An apparatus for dynamic load flow control in high-voltage networks has at least one phase conductor and first high-voltage connection for connection to each phase conductor. Each first high-voltage connection has first and second core sections of a closed magnetic circuit and first and second high-voltage windings surrounding respective core portions and connected in parallel. The core portions and windings are in a tank filled with ester fluids. At least one saturation switching branch outside the tank saturates the core sections and has controllable power semiconductor switches. A control unit controls the power semiconductor switches. The first and second high-voltage windings are connected at high-voltage ends to associated first high-voltage connections and at low-voltage ends to respective saturation switching branches. The device is connectable in series into the high-voltage network, with the saturation switching branches electrically insulated from ground potential.
