IEEE PES Kerala Chapter - DLP on AC and DC Gas Insulated Transmission Lines
IEEE Kerala Section
Power & Energy Society Chapter
IEEE PES Kerala Chapter in association with IEEE PES Student Branch NIT Calicut is organizing a Distinguished Lecture Program(DLP) in the Department of Electrical Engineering, NIT Calicut.
Title: AC and DC Gas Insulated Transmission Lines
Date: 6th February 2018
Venue: Chanakya Hall, National Institute of Technology, Calicut
Time: 11.00 AM – 01.00 PM
Lecture Synopsis
Gas-insulated transmission lines (GIL) are in operation worldwide in AC technology in many projects with a total installed phase length of more than 500 km overall voltage levels. The AC technology of GIL has been proven as a reliable and high power transmission technology installed in a tunnel, above ground and directly buried. The development of the GIL technology in the future is reaching now the third generation with the focus of further cost reductions. The new DC gas-insulated transmission line technology enters new fields of applications for DC high power transmission lines and DC gas-insulated switchgear (DC GIS). The DC gas-insulated systems basic principles have been developed and principle theory of this technology will be explained in the lecture.
Guest Speaker
Dr. Hermann Koch
Dr. Hermann Koch received his academic education at Technical University Darmstadt and New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark, NJ in 1986 in Electrical Engineering. His research work in the field of high voltages was concluded in 1990 with his doctoral thesis on partial discharge measurements for non-destructive testing.
In 1991, he started his business career with Siemens in Erlangen Germany at the headquarters of the power transmission division. In several responsibilities, he was engaged in gas insulated technologies for HV circuit breaker, gas-insulated substations, and transmission lines. Responsible for technical support in sales, development of gas-mixture technologies like GIL, business development for GIS and GIL and for coordination of Siemens standardization activities on Energy Transmission Division.
Currently, he is Principle Expert of Standardization and gas-insulated high voltage system in Energy Transmission of Siemens. He is IEEE Fellow and Chairman of IEEE PES Substations Committee Working Group of the GIS Book. In IEC he is Secretary of SC 17C High Voltage Switchgear Assemblies. In CIGRE he is the member of the Strategic Advisory Group of SC B3 Substations.
He has published 150 technical papers and holds 31 patents in the field of gas insulated technology.
