Abstract

As an important tool of transmission system dispatching, the region-based method has just been introduced into distribution area with the ongoing smart distribution grid initiatives. First, a more accurate distribution system security region (DSSR) model is proposed. The proposed model is based on detailed feeder-interconnected topology, and both substation transformer and feeder N-1 contingencies are considered. Second, generic characteristics of DSSR are discussed and mathematically proved. That is, DSSR is a dense set of which boundary has no suspension and can be expressed by several union subsurfaces. Finally, the results from both a test case and a practical case demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed modeling approach; the shape of DSSR is also illustrated by means of 2- and 3-dimensional visualization. Moreover, the DSSR-based assessment and control are preliminary illustrated to show the application of DSSR. The researches in this paper are fundamental work to develop new security region theory for future distribution systems.

Highlights

  • This paper presents a model of power distribution system security region (DSSR) which takes both substation transformer and feeder N-1 contingencies into account

Summary

Introduction

This paper presents a model of power distribution system security region (DSSR) which takes both substation transformer and feeder N-1 contingencies into account. Author of [6,7,8] described the topological characteristics for security region and defined the practical model for engineering application. Total supply capability (TSC) is a newly proposed concept which is defined as the capability that a system can supply the load when the N-1 security for distribution systems is considered [14, 15]. Paper [16] designed an N-1 approximating approach to study the characteristics of DSSR Those characteristics have not been proved by rigorous mathematical method and some of them are inaccurately described. A test case and a practical case are both selected to testify the proposed model
