Modelación matemática de ondas viajeras generadas por descargas atmosféricas en sistemas de distribución desarrollado en el laboratorio de alta tensión de la UPS-Sede Guayaquil.

Abstract

The goal of this study was to develop a mathematical model of traveling waves, for observing the effects of reflection and refraction that occur when a lightning impacts the electrical distribution lines, taking into account the different transition points or derivations that exist in network. Due to the complexity that the study on traveling waves has, different techniques and research methods were applied to implement experimentally circuits in the high voltage laboratory of the Universidad Politécnica Salesiana - Guayaquil and also to represent them mathematically. It was use as simulation tool the program Matlab which allowed to solve the equations and the given circuits, due to its high degree of sophistication. In addition, to provide theoretical and experimental in order to facilitate the understanding of the whole community on this electrical phenomenon, and strengthen scientific research in various areas of study Electrical Engineering; generating knowledge, science and technology, as outlined in the "Plan Nacional para el buen Vivir" and the change of “La Matríz Energética” of the country.
