Analysis of Failures in the Power Grid via the Pseudo-inverse of the Admittance Matrix

چکیده
Recent large-scale power outages demonstrated the limitations of percolationand epidemic-based tools in modeling failures in power grids. Hence, we study the impact of line failures on the flow changes and cascade in the transmission system of the power grid by using a linearized power flow model. We use the pseudo-inverse of the power grid admittance matrix to obtain upper bounds on the flow changes after a failure, develop an efficient algorithm to identify the cascading failure evolution, and develop a simple heuristic to find a set of line failures with the highest impact. Overall, the results demonstrate that the resistance distance and the pseudo-inverse of admittance matrix provide important insights and can support the development of efficient algorithms.

A New Procedure for Determining Current Harmonic Contribution around an Operation Point at PCC Using Load Modelling Based on Crossed Frequency Admittance Matrix
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...

Most techniques for power system analysis model the grid by exact electrical circuits. For instance, in power flow study, state estimation, and voltage stability assessment, the use of admittance parameters (i.e., the nodal admittance matrix) and hybrid parameters is common. Moreover, network reduction techniques (e.g., Kron reduction) are often applied to decrease the size of large grid models...
