Optimal Power Flow— Basic Requirements for Real-Life Problems and their Solutions
نویسندگان
چکیده
FOREWORD Optimal power flow (OPF) calculations are increasingly critical to modern power systems operationcontrol, markets and planning. However, it is still not easy to obtain reliable OPF solutions that are fully usable in practical power systems engineering. Better methods and software are continually being pursued. This paper discusses some of the calculation and solution requirements from the viewpoints of: (a) Users seeking better OPF tools, and (b) Researchers and developers trying to provide such tools. The paper is based on four decades of experience in developing and supplying the relevant OPF methods and software to industry all over the world. It makes no attempt at being a comprehensive subject review or at providing a compilation of references.

Hydrothermal Optimal Power Flow Using Continuation Method
The problem of optimal economic operation of hydrothermal electric power systems is solved using powerful continuation method. While in conventional approach, fixed generation voltages are used to avoid convergence problems, in the proposed algorithm, they are treated as variables so that better solutions can be obtained. The algorithm is tested for a typical 5-bus and 17-bus New Zealand networ...

متن کاملOptimal PMU Placement Considering with HVDC Links and Their Voltage Stability Requirements
In wide area measurement systems, PMUs are the main component measuring real time synchronized data from different buses. Installation of PMUs at all buses is a primary way to provide full observability of the power network. However, it is not practical in real networks due to the relatively expensive cost of PMUs and other technical limitations. Optimal PMU Placement (OPP) is an optimization p...
متن کاملIntegrating Issues of Power System Scheduling and Optimal Power Flows Problem
This paper presents problem of integration of short-term power generation scheduling problem and optimal power flows. The task of short-term power generation scheduling in the power system is to minimize the total production costs, which should satisfy demand and required reserve in the system as well generation constraints of all units in the system. Generally the requirements for constraints ...
