Low Voltage Shore Connection, Induction Motor Starting, Voltage Drop, Digsilent Power FactoryAbstract
This paper is based on an ongoing project to evaluate the voltage stability from shore to ship during connection which is currently a concern for ship operators. The voltage drops produced by the ship motor load during connection affect the anomalies of the electronic equipment on board. Stability Analysis Function (RMS) and Power Flow Analysis are studied for possible operating conditions at low voltage shore connection (LVSC) using Digsilent Power Factory. This study compares Upsize Converter, Transformer On Load Tap Changer (OLTC), Uprate Voltage Setpoint at Substation, and Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) methods for voltage drop mitigation. Simulations shows that STATCOM has the capability to maintain reactive power compensation and Upsize Converter has current limits for balancing voltage during normal and dynamic operation as well as when voltage drops appear
