Interference Analysis of Very Fast Transient Overvoltages in Gas-Insulated Substations Using a Hybrid Algorithm

Abstract

The reliable and efficient computational approach for the cable interference in gas insulated substations (GIS) is presented. The hybrid domain decomposition method-multilevel fast multi-pole algorithm (DDM-MLFMA) is presented herein. This technique determines the specifications of GIS cables for RG58 and AWG23. Self and mutual interference are identified utilizing the very fast transient overvoltage (VFTO) transient interference signal. The hybrid technique offers a numerical simulation to replicate the impact of the VFTO interference signal. Utilizing the matrix-vector multiplication product (MVX) to address compression and approximation challenges, the hybrid approach proves reliable and pragmatic. Because of its computational nature and explicit factorization reduction, this strategy reduces computation time and memory requirements. Consequently, the system's complexity follows a linear trend under this proposed approach. The computed results are juxtaposed with traditional methodologies to validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
