Abstract

The article analyzes the electrical power system of a machine construction workshop where optimal positioning of power sources (power substation, distribution points) has to be determined so as to lower the metal consumption. The goal of the work is to develop a model of an efficient electrical power system at an industrial unit employing the method of distributed power density, developed by the authors. This method will help to determine the position of power sources. The amount of energy losses per power transmission and the metal consumption of the system were used as optimization criteria. The suggested method is based on the presentation of each surface load in the form of solids of revolution, limited by planes produced by the multiple of the basic function and the load power. The results were analyzed by means of substituting the group of consumers by an equivalent consumer and determining the radius of diffusion. The method of distributed power density allows to design the system of power supply with better characteristics in terms of minimal losses per power transmission and minimal metal consumption. The suggested method can be used in designing the power systems of industrial units and larger geographical areas. This method will help to determine the best position for reactive power compensators, the installation of which will help to minimize the losses in the system, increase the quality of the power supplied to the consumer unit.
