Estudo de perdas no sistema elétrico de potência com presença de geração distribuída usando o ATPDraw®.

Abstract

In this work will be addressed the study of hum Electric Power System in the presence of a distributed generation. In order to have the interconnection of a GD without causing impacts to the system, we must analyze the best location and thus generating operational condition. This requires a study of the systems power flow , that is , one must understand the system behavior by each change. Using the ATP Draw software - which is an example of a reliable application in studies to monitor, know and thus to be able to control the implemented power systems, therefore minimizing economical, human and time losses - a typical distribution system was evaluated in order to find the best location of DG unit so as to minimize losses in the distribution system. The results show that the use of distributed generation to assist the centralized generation behind many benefits to the system, including the reduction of active power losses and improving the supplied voltage level.
