Design of a transmission line monitoring solution for an unmanned quadcopter
Van Rooyen, T.; Gouws, R. (2014)Eskom owns thousands of kilometres of transmission lines that need to be inspected in order to plan maintenance. Current methods of inspection are costly and ineffective and could pose safety risks. Systems already developed ... -
Field performance of ambient modal estimation in small signal stability
Van Rooyen, Tian; Rens, Johan; Desmet, Jan (IEEE, 2015)Small signal stability is one focus of Wide Area Measurement Systems (WAMS). WAMS systems are becoming more widespread, driven by availability of synchrophasor data from Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs). In this paper, two ... -
Ontwerp van ’n transmissielyn-monteringsoplossing vir ’n onbemande vier-rotor helikopter
Van Rooyen, T.; Gouws, R. (AOSIS, 2014)A need exists for a transmission line monitoring system for use by Eskom to inspect transmission lines. A solution which uses a single board computer, visual and infrared cameras and a GPS module is described. Real-time ... -
Real-time power system oscillation monitoring using synchrophasor measurements
Van Rooyen, Tian; Rens, Johan (IEEE, 2015)Inter-area oscillations impact negatively on power system stability and power transfer capability. Monitoring oscillations in real time can improve control of the power system. Synchrophasor data from Phasor Measurement ... -
Where is the power of the IEEE 1459-2010?
Rens, Johan; Van Rooyen, Tian; De Jager, Francois (IEEE, 2014)The integration of the IEEE 1459-2010 power definitions with the IEC 61000-4-30 PQ standard is investigated. A Class A PQ instrument, which record network coherent data with an absolute time uncertainty of less than 100 ...
