With the fast developing on distributed generations (DGs) integrating into distribution system, it changes power flow direction in tree-topology, as a result of which traditional power flow method is not effective for this new scene. It is necessary to make improvement on traditional method in order to accelerate the speed of power flow calculation. Since fast decoupled method is not suitable for system with a high R/X ratio, its need to make compensation for the branches to increase R/X ratio. DGs are integrated into power gird normally by inverter interfaced mode or direct grid-connected mode. In this paper, a new fast decoupled power flow method is proposed which could solve various DGs integrated into distribution network, as well as loop topology of distribution system. The utility of proposed method is tested by simulations of IEEE 69-bus system.

AbstractThis paper proposes a decoupled AC/DC power flow approach for multi-terminal HVDC systems. The proposed method simplifies the power flow computation of multi-terminal HVDC systems while accurately reflecting the operation and control characteristics of VSC (voltage source converter) stations in a HVDC network. In the DC network, the power flow calculation is conducted based on a slack DC bus VSC station and power commends issued to other VSC stations from the power system control center. Then, in the AC power flow calculation, VSC stations are treated as special AC generators that can generate and absorb power from the AC grid in active and reactive power or active power and bus voltage control mode. For validation purpose, the conventional unified power flow method for multi-terminal HVDC systems is built. The paper compares the proposed method with the unified power flow method for an 8-bus multi-terminal HVDC system based on MATPOWER. Then, more case studies for different VSC control modes are conducted and evaluated for the 8-bus system. Afterwards, the proposed method is applied to the power flow study of a more practical and complicated multi-terminal HVDC system based on the IEEE 118-bus system.

Large-scale integration of Wind Generators (WGs) with distribution systems is underway right across the globe in a drive to harness green energy. The Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) is an important type of WG due to its robustness and versatility. Its accurate and efficient modeling is very important in distribution systems planning and analysis studies, as the older approximate representation method (the constant PQ model) is no longer sufficient given the scale of integration of WGs. This thesis proposes a new three-phase model for the DFIG, compatible with unbalanced three-phase distribution systems, by deriving an analytical representation of its three major components, namely the wind turbine, the voltage source converter, and the wound-rotor induction machine. The proposed model has a set of nonlinear equations that yields the total three-phase active and reactive powers injected into the grid by the DFIG as a function of the grid voltage and wind turbine parameters. This proposed model is integrated with a three-phased unbalanced power flow method and reported in this thesis. The proposed method opens up a new way to conduct power flow studies on unbalanced distribution systems with WGs. The proposed DFIG model is verified using Matlab-Simulink. IEEE 37-bus test system data from the IEEE Distribution System sub-committee is used to benchmark the results of the power flow method.

The aim of this paper is to introduce the demand re-allocation process (demand estimation) in conjunction with feeder input complex power for Unbalanced Radial Distribution System (URDS) with mutual impedances using Iterative Power Flows (IPFS) method. The proposed method in this paper is to compute the individual loads on each phase in conjunction with the feeder telemetered complex power input and with the help of backward forward sweep power flow method calculate iteratively nodal voltages and total losses per phase on the feeder. The practical 8 bus and 55 bus unbalanced radial distribution systems with mutual impedances are used to describe the novelty of the proposed algorithm. The simulation results in terms of new individual demands, bus voltages and total per phase losses are summarized. The bus voltages with iterative power flows method are compared with direct approach power flow method results.
