Development of Hebron Medium Voltage Electrical Network by Using the Simulator Program

Abstract

This project is studying of the medium voltage electric power network of Hebron city by using the Power World Simulator (Simulator) program and making the essential developments and improvements on the network such as reducing the losses, improving the Power Factor, achieving the network stability and increasing its efficiency. The core of the project is the using of the Power World Simulator program which has the simulation property, which allows us to analyze and study the status of the network more accurately. After making the studying to the network, we found that it suffers from many problems such as high losses 16%, Power Factor less than 0.92, voltage drop, overloaded conductors and transformers. To solve the previous problems we performed five developing scenarios, which are re-conductoring, voltage upgrading, power factor correction, adding new substation and over loaded transformers rehabilation.
