Item Compensating the impact of residual energy on time domain dielectric response using time-varying model /(IEEE, 2025-01-01) Mishra, DeepakItem New approach to design D-flip flop and two bit down counter using optical micro-ring resonator for high speed data processing(Springer Nature, 2020-03-03) Verma, Nidhi; Mishra, DeepakOptical switches play a key role in the field of high-speed optical fiber communication and signal processing. Present work shows the design and implementation of D-flip flop and a two-bit optical counter using optical micro ring resonator (OMRR). The design of the proposed model is developed by considering nonlinear material-based resonators. Here, three OMRR based optical switches are used to design the D-flip flop circuit thereafter two-bit optical counter is implemented using the modeled D-flip flop. The mathematical model of the D-flip flop circuit is provided in the Z-domain by unit delay signal processing approach. The effectiveness of the proposed D flip flop and two-bit down counter circuit is described in the present work. The accuracy and feasibility of the circuits are determined by estimating various performance parameters during simulation.Item Importance of depolarization current in the diagnosis of oil-paper insulation of power transformer(IEEE, 2023-06-07) Kumar, Alok; Mishra, Deepak; Baral, ArijitRecently, Polarization Depolarization current (PDC) measurement is widely accepted time domain spectroscopy-based method for assessing the insulation condition. Various performance parameters like Dissipation factor (%tan δ ), Paper Moisture (%pm), Dielectric Adsorption Ratio (DAR), Polarization index (PI) etc. can be estimated by analyzing the PDC data. During field measurement various factors influences the recorded PDC data. As per existing literature, presence of low frequency noise, effect of temperature variation and influence of residual charge are common during field measurement. These factors significantly affect recorded polarization current and hence estimated performance parameters. Hence, analysis using recorded polarization current data may provide misleading information regarding insulation condition. Under such practical situation where polarization current is affected by above mentioned factors that generally observed during field measurement, depolarization current should be used for analysis of insulation condition. The depolarization current does not influence by such external factors. The present work shows the importance of depolarization current where polarization current is influenced by external low frequency noise and residual charge. The analysis firstly applied on sample prepared in the laboratory and then on data collected from real life in-situ transformers. The results obtained from the analysis shows that the data obtained from depolarization current is more reliable.Item Influence of temperature on interfacial charge of power transformer insulation(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2019-06-21) Dutta, Saurabh; Mishra, Deepak; Haque, Nasirul; Pradhan, Arpan Kumar; Baral, Arijit; Chakravorti, SivajiOne of the popular methods for insulation diagnosis is measurement and analysis of polarisation–depolarisation current (PDC). During normal operation, charges get confined at the interface of oil–paper insulation. A part of these accumulated charges get absorbed in depolarisation current and contribute to the overall PDC data. The process through which charges are released from their confinement is known as charge de-trapping, which is highly influenced by thermal energy content of the insulation and hence by measurement temperature. In the current work, an effort has been made to investigate the effect of measurement temperature on de-trapped charge. Two samples are prepared and analysed in the laboratory at different temperatures for this purpose. This is followed by analysis of data collected from several real-life power transformers. Related analysis presented here suggests that measurement temperature of the system plays an important role in determining the amount of de-trapped interfacial charge during PDC measurement.Item Estimation of de-trapped charge for diagnosis of transformer insulation using short-duration polarisation current employing detrended fluctuation analysis(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2020-10-01) Dutta, Saurabh; Mishra, Deepak; Baral, Arijit; Chakravorti, SivajiResearchers have shown that the value of charge carriers, de-trapped from the oil–paper interface of power transformer insulation, is useful in carrying out the diagnosis. However, the evaluation of the de-trapped charge requires the analysis of polarisation–depolarisation currents. Being an off-line time-consuming process, the measurement and analysis of polarisation and depolarisation current (PDC) data are not practically advantageous. The study presents a detrended fluctuation analysis-based technique to estimate the magnitude of normalised de-trapped charge using the polarisation current measured for a short duration. Using the proposed technique, the requirement of measuring the complete PDC data, for diagnosis purposes, can be eliminated. Further, the technique also eliminates the requirement of depolarisation current which in turn facilitates a reduction in equipment shutdown time. The applicability of the proposed technique is tested on the data obtained from several real-life power transformers.Item Compensating the effect of residual dipole energy on dielectric response for effective diagnosis of power transformer insulation(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2017-11-28) Mishra, Deepak; Baral, Arijit; Chakravorti, SivajiAnalysis of relaxation current is a widely accepted method for diagnosis of power transformer insulation. The accuracy of such diagnostic tool is dependent on insulation model parameters which are formulated using relaxation current. This implies that the accuracy and hence the reliability of existing insulation diagnosis methods indirectly depends on the accuracy of the recorded polarisation depolarisation current. Sometimes during field measurement relaxation current measurement equipment fails to record proper current, even after application of dc charging voltage. As per utilities, this primarily happens due to improper/loose connections (this cannot be avoided entirely due to the involvement of human factors) and such situation is usually followed by checking and rectifying improper connection. The analysis presented in this study shows that the polarisation current recorded immediately after rectifying the correction is inaccurate and leads to the erroneous diagnosis. Furthermore, it is observed that in these cases, the measured and calculated (using insulation model) values of performance parameters like dissipation factor, polarisation index, and paper-moisture differ by a large extent. This work is aimed at removing the effect of this residual dipole energy introduced during the improper connection phase.Item Effect of charge accumulated at oil–paper interface on parameters considered for power transformer insulation diagnosis(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2018-01-02) Mishra, Deepak; Haque, Nasirul; Baral, Arijit; Chakravorti, SivajiPolarisation and depolarisation current (PDC) measurement and analysis is one of the popular tools for effective diagnosis of power transformer insulation. Normally, it is assumed that polarisation current is the combination of the current due to dipole movement and conduction current. Similarly, the depolarisation current is only due to the relaxation of dipoles. However, it is found that after eliminating the effect of dc conduction from polarisation current the resulting current is not similar to that of measured depolarisation current. This shows some non-linearity is present in the system. This non-linearity occurs due to movement of trapped charge that resides in the interfacial region of oil–paper insulation. This study shows the effect of de-trapping charge on various performance parameters that are used for insulation diagnosis like paper moisture and dielectric dissipation factor (tanδ).Item Estimation of paper conductivity from short duration polarisation–depolarisation current for diagnosis of power transformer(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2019-07-12) Mishra, Deepak; Haque, Nasirul; Baral, Arijit; Chakravorti, SivajiThe value of paper conductivity provides quantitative evaluation of transformer insulation health. However, proper identification of paper conductivity requires complete profile of polarisation–depolarisation current (PDC). PDC measurement being a time-consuming offline process generally takes several hours to complete. Furthermore, magnitude of PDC becomes very low at larger value of time, which makes it sensitive to changes in environmental conditions and field noise. Hence, accuracy of paper conductivity identification can be ensured by conducting multiple measurements. This in-turn prolongs shutdown time of equipment and become less advantageous to utilities. Here, a method is proposed which is capable of estimating paper conductivity using PDC data recorded for only 800 s. The proposed technique is tested on data collected from several real-life in-service transformers. In order to illustrate the accuracy of the proposed technique, paper conductivities (calculated from short duration PDC) were compared with those computed using PDC measured for 10,000 s.Item De-noising of time-domain spectroscopy data for reliable assessment of power transformer insulation(The Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2020-04-24) Mishra, Deepak; Baral, Arijit; Chakravorti, SivajiPolarisation–depolarisation current (PDC) measurement and its analysis is a popular technique for assessing the condition of transformer insulation. Owing to the low magnitude of PDC, recording noise-free PDC data from in-situ power transformers is a challenge. Once the relaxation current data get affected by noise, it becomes difficult to formulate insulation model (as recorded data loses its characteristic shape). This further makes the data difficult to analyse and predict insulation condition. In this study, two de-noising techniques are discussed (one is based on Wavelet Transform while the other is based on Stockwell Transform) for eliminating low-frequency non-stationary noise from recorded PDC data. Comparison between these two techniques suggests de-noising using Stockwell Transform is advantageous over wavelet analysis. The proposed methodology is first tested on data recorded from the sample prepared in the laboratory and then on data measured from real-life in-service power transformer.
