Speakers
Prof. Ramakrishna Gokaraju of Dept. of Electrical & Computer Engineering, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Canada.
“Advancements in Power Systems Relaying for HV/EHV Transmission Lines & Simulation of Renewable Energy Systems”
Abstract of the lecture:
The talk/lecture will discuss the research work carried out by Dr. Ramakrishna Gokaraju on High Speed Digital Relaying, Out-of-Step Protection of Generators and Transmission Lines, Modeling of Wind Generators for Power System Protection Studies, Fault Location in DC Grids (PV Systems), etc, in the Real-Time Power Systems Simulation Laboratory at the University of Saskatchewan, Canada.
High speed relaying using traveling waves has gained significant attention of late in the industry. A high speed distance relay using FPGAs and IEC 61850 protocols (SV & GOOSE) for HV/EHV transmission lines will be discussed. It can make a secure trip decision in 0.6~0.8 cycles. The presentation would also discuss industry based methods and new methods for out-of-step protection of generators and transmission lines, generic models for modeling wind generators, fault location in DC systems (PV farms) using the analysis of the converter switching frequencies.
Biography:
Dr.Ramakrishna Gokaraju, is Presently working as Professor, Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Canada.
Also, he is a member of the J-5 Working Group (“Application of Out-of-Step Protection Schemes for Generators”) of the IEEE Power System Relaying Committee (PSRC), IEEE WG 1110 (“Guide for Synchronous Generator Modeling Practices & Applications in Power System Stability Analyses”).
Ramakrishna Gokaraju is a BTech (EEE)/ 1992 graduate from the REC (NIT), Trichy. He obtained M.Sc. (in 1996) and Ph.D (in 2000) degrees in Electrical & Computer Engineering from the University of Calgary, Calgary, Canada. He joined the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Saskatchewan as an Assistant Professor in 2003, received tenure/Associate Professorship in 2009, and became a professor in 2015.
In 1999-2002, he worked at the Alberta Research Council, Calgary, Canada as a Research Scientist and IBM Toronto Lab, Toronto, Canada as a Staff Software Engineer. During 2009-2010 academic year (on sabbatical leave) Dr. Ramakrishna worked as Visiting Professor in the Dept. of Electrical & Computer Engineering, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada. During Jan-June, 2014 (on sabbatical leave), he was a visiting professor with Power R&D Consultants (PRDC), Bangalore, India and the University of Queensland, Brisbane, Australia. From Jan to May-2018, he is a Visiting Professor in the Dept. of Electrical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, India.
Dr. Ramakrishna’s current areas of research are in High Speed Relaying, PMU based solutions for Wide Area Protection, Control & Transient Stability Protection, Modeling & Integration of Renewable Energy. He has graduated 6 PhD students and about 25 Master’s students.
