Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

As the proportion of renewable power sources increases and the capacity of the grid continues to expand, the modern power system is now experiencing a more flexible and efficient development. In this regard, traditional electromagnetic equipment such as transformers, reactors, etc., require performance upgrades in terms of their calculation, detection and design in order to fully suit the modern environment. Understanding these challenges and developing appropriate technological improvements will be beneficial to achieving a more flexible and efficient power system.

This Special Issue aims to enhance the performance of the electromagnetic equipment operating in modern power systems. The objective of this research topic is to explore and analyse methods that possess the potential to build highly efficient and reliable modern power systems via the construction of advanced electromagnetic equipment. Such findings will help the industry to better solve issues related to the high volatility and strong nonlinearity of renewable power sources in the system and accelerate the research and development of high-end electrical equipment.

This Special Issue welcomes the submission of papers presenting multi-disciplinary approaches to developing advanced electromagnetic equipment in modern power systems. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

(1) Computational electromagnetics in modern power systems, the physical properties of magnetic materials and their application in power engineering.
(2) Innovative sensing methods in signal and image processing, electronic instrumentation and measurement.
(3) Topological design methods for advanced electromagnetic equipment.
(4) Multi-physics simulation and analysis of advanced electromagnetic equipment.
(5) Intelligent monitoring and diagnosis of advanced electromagnetic equipment.
(6) New generator topologies for renewable energy generation.

In the context of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals, the integration of a large number of renewable energy sources may trigger significant tidal changes, leading to transmission congestion, wind and light abandonment, power oscillation, voltage and frequency fluctuations, etc. A phase-shifting transformer is a cost-effective and reliable power flow control equipment, but its key parameters lack systematic design methods. Based on the equivalent model of phase-shifting transformers, detailed design principles and methods have been proposed, and the configuration method of winding turns has been improved to facilitate calculation and control strategy formulation. The regulation effect of the phase-shifting transformer designed through simulation of power flow regulation in a typical 500 kV network is simulated. By adjusting the phase-shifting transformer, the power flow of heavy load lines can be transferred to light load lines, optimizing the power flow distribution and improving the transmission capacity of the cross-section.
