This paper presents an approach for alleviation of network over loads in the day-to-day operation of power systems. The method used for over load alleviation is real power generation rescheduling based on relative electrical distance (RED) concept. The method estimates the relative location of load nodes with respect to the generator nodes. First congestion is observed, and then each generator’s contribution to the congested line is found out. Based on RED method desired generation rescheduling is obtained to relieve overloaded line. Cost is also a key factor which has to be considered in real power rescheduling. A case studied is carried out for modified IEEE 39-bus New England system, where power flow is found by Newton Rapson’s method and compared with operational load flow method.

This paper presents an efficient geometric parameterization technique for the continuation power flow. It was developed from the observation of the geometrical behavior of load flow solutions. The parameterization technique eliminates the singularity of load flow Jacobian matrix and therefore all the consequent problems of ill-conditioning. This is obtained by adding equations lines passing through the points in the plane determined by the loading factor and the total real power losses that is rewritten as a function of the real power generated by the slack bus. An automatic step size control is also provided, which is used when it is necessary. Thus, the resulting method enables the complete tracing ofP-Vcurves and the computation of maximum loading point of any electric power systems. Intending to reduce the CPU time, the effectiveness caused by updating the Jacobian matrix is investigated only when the system undergoes a significant change. Moreover, the tangent and trivial predictors are compared with each other. The robustness and simplicity as well as the simple interpretation of the proposed technique are the highlights of this method. The results obtained for the IEEE 300-bus system and for real large systems show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Optimal power flow with transient stability constraints (TSCOPF) becomes an effective tool of many problems in power systems since it simultaneously considers economy and dynamic stability of power system. TSC-OPF is a non-linear optimization problem which is not easy to deal directly because of its huge dimension. This paper presents a novel and efficient optimisation approach named the teaching learning based optimisation (TLBO) for solving the TSCOPF problem. The quality and usefulness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through its application to four standard test systems namely, IEEE 30-bus system, IEEE 118-bus system, WSCC 3-generator 9-bus system and New England 10-generator 39-bus system. To demonstrate the applicability and validity of the proposed method, the results obtained from the proposed algorithm are compared with those obtained from other algorithms available in the literature. The experimental results show that the proposed TLBO approach is comparatively capable of obtaining higher quality solution and faster computational time.

This article presents an approach using cubic spline function to study Load Flow with a view to acquiring a reliable convergence in the Bus System. The solution of the power flow is one of the extreme problems in Electrical Power Systems. The prime objective of power flow analysis is to find the magnitude and phase angle of voltage at each bus. Conventional methods for solving the load flow problems are iterative in nature, and are computed using the Newton-Raphson, Gauss-Seidel and Fast Decoupled method. To build this method, this paper used cubic spline function. This approach can be considered as a ‘two stage' iterative method. To accredit the proposed method load flow study is carried out in IEEE-30 bus systems.

Power-flow studies are of great significance in planning and designing the future expansion of power systems as well as in determining the best operation of existing systems. Technologies such as renewables and power electronics are aiding in power conversion and control, thus making the power system massive, complex, and dynamic. HVDC is being preferred due to limitations in HVAC such as reactive power loss, stability, current carrying capacity, operation and control. The HVDC system is being used for bulk power transmission over long distances with minimum losses using overhead transmission lines or submarine cable crossings. Recent years have witnessed an unprecedented growth in the number of the HVDC projects. Due to the vast size and inaccessibility of transmission systems, real time testing can prove to be difficult. Thus analyzing power system stability through computer modeling and simulation proves to be a viable solution in this case. The motivation of this project is to construct and analyze the load flow and short circuit behavior in an IEEE 14 bus power system with DC link using MATLAB software. This involves determining the parameters for converter transformer, rectifier, inverter and DC cable for modelling the DC link. The line chosen for incorporation of DC link is a weak bus. This project gives the results of load flow and along with comparison of reactive power flow, system losses, voltage in an AC and an AC-DC system.

Voltage instabilities and/or collapses have been recognized as one of the major causes of power system blackouts. The main objective of this paper is to provide some solutions to prevent large power systems from voltage collapse. The FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Sys-tems) devices placement gives new opportunities for enhancing voltage stability. The calculation of the loadability point is based on the con-tinuation power flow technique (CPF) to choosing the optimal placement of STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) in order to improve voltage stability by increasing the loading parameter, maintaining bus voltages at desired level and minimizing losses in a power system network.A 39-bus New England power system is chosen as test case in order to illustrate this approach. The obtained results show the efficiency of the proposed method for the planning of the Static Synchronous Compensator optimal placement and the voltage stability enhancement.

New-generation power networks, such as microgrids, are being affected by the proliferationof nonlinear electronic systems, resulting in harmonic disturbances both in voltage and current thataffect the symmetry of the system. This paper presents a method based on the application of geometricalgebra (GA) to the resolution of power flow in nonsinusoidal single-phase electrical systems for thecorrect determination of its components to achieve passive compensation of true quadrature current.It is demonstrated that traditional techniques based on the concepts of Budeanu, Fryze or IEEE1459fail to determine the interaction between voltage and current and therefore, are not suitable for beingused as a basis for the compensation of nonactive power components. An example is included thatdemonstrates the superiority of GA method and is compared to previous work where GA approachesand traditional methods have also been used.

This paper deals with investigating the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) solution of power systems considering Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices and wind power generation under uncertainty. The Krill Herd Algorithm (KHA), as a new meta-heuristic approach, is employed to cope with the OPF problem of power systems, incorporating FACTS devices and stochastic wind power generation. The wind power uncertainty is included in the optimization problem using Weibull probability density function modeling to determine the optimal values of decision variables. Various objective functions, including minimization of fuel cost, active power losses across transmission lines, emission, and Combined Economic and Environmental Costs (CEEC), are separately formulated to solve the OPF considering FACTS devices and stochastic wind power generation. The effectiveness of the KHA approach is investigated on modified IEEE-30 bus and IEEE-57 bus test systems and compared with other conventional methods available in the literature.

This paper summarizes the defects of both OPA model and its improved models and then proposes a new model in order to simulate real power system roundly. There is an inner loop based on DC power flow optimization to minimize the change in generation or load shed and an outer loop based on the risk theory. In the outer loop, whether to improve the line capacity and how to improve are determined by risk index of line improvement (RILI) and line improvement degree function, respectively. A new prevention strategy against cascading failure is proposed by identifying the high-risk lines and determining optimal RILI which minimize line improvement cost and load loss. In the end, simulation based on 39-bus New England System reveals that new model is closer to real power system than the original one by comparing outage probability and load loss between the two models, and risk-based assessment interval and line improvement delay play important roles in prevention against power system outages, and improvement based on risk assessment can reduce outage probability to varying degrees, which illustrates the practical significance of optimal RILI.
