Harmonic Load Flow for Radial Distribution Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Radial distribution systems (RDS) require special load flow methods to solve power flow equations owing to their high R/X ratio. Increasing use of power electronic devices and effect of magnetic saturation cause harmonics in RDS. This paper proposes a novel algorithm to compute the power flow solution of a RDS accounting for all the harmonic components. It uses a recursive solution technique. The proposed method uses a novel dynamic data structure reported in the paper. The proposed method is tested upon a 33-bus RDS and the results are reported.

Reliability Assessment of Distribution Transformers Considering Load Harmonics
The progressive application of non-linear loads in distribution systems (DS) increases current harmonics flow in DS's apparatuses, especially distribution transformers (DTs). Since DTs' operating temperature rises due to the harmonics flow, their loading should be reduced such that the hot spot temperature (HST) is preserved under its permissible value. This means that DTs' available capacity i...

This paper presents a new direct matrix inversion-less analysis for radial distribution systems (RDSs). The method can successfully deal with weakly meshed distribution systems. (WMDSs). Being easy to implement, direct methods (DMs) provide an excellent performance. Matrix inversion is the mean reason of divergence and low-efficiency in power flow algorithms. In this paper, the performance of t...

Distribution load flow (DLF) calculation is one of the most important tools in distribution networks. DLF tools must be able to perform fast calculations in real-time studies at the presence of distributed generators (DGs) in a smart grid environment even in conditions of change in the network topology. In this paper, a new method for DLF in radial active distribution networks is proposed. The ...

Abstract:Today, one of the important issues of power quality (PQ) in power systems is the current harmonics. Increasing expansion of nonlinear loads at different parts of the electric network makes harmonic distortion flow through the network. This causes the network to have background voltage and current harmonic distortion and even affect on the PQ of linear load performance. Therefore, it is...

Conventional passive distribution networks are changing to modern active distribution networks which are not radial. Conventional load flow methods should be modified for new distribution networks analysis. In modern distribution networks distributed generation (DG) units are embedded with conventional and/or renewable resources. DG units are generally modeled as PV or PQ nodes which inject ...
