Control Automático de Voltaje en Sistemas Eléctricos de Potencia basado en Sistemas Expertos

Abstract

This paper presents the design of an expert controller applied to voltage level control in a power system. The use of pilot node concept allows to keep stable the list of controllers against topological changes in the network. To achieve the optimal voltage profile, the Alberta Electric System Operator regulations are used. The controller validation is performed by simulating a case library and the solution is compared with results provided by an optimal power flow and a genetic based algorithm. The main advantage of the propose model is the unified treatment of the voltage profile and the reactive dispatch without the need of a two-step algorithm. The proposed controller is suitable for online real-time applications and it is flexible when dealing with problems that present a complex analytical formulation.
