Abstract

As the scale of the power grid expands and distributed energy sources are integrated, along with the emergence of random loads, topological control of distribution networks has become a novel means of control. Therefore, data-driven power flow calculations must be capable of rapidly and accurately computing power flow results even when there are changes in the network’s topology. In this paper, a data-driven power flow calculation method is proposed to take topological changes into account. Based on initial loop data, we employ an undirected-graph delooping-backtracking method to generate a set of feasible topological samples. Using the Monte Carlo method on this basis, we generate feasible samples for the network’s topology and power injection, thereby establishing a training dataset. By training a deep neural network on these samples and adjusting network parameters, we effectively address power flow calculations in the presence of topological changes. Case study results demonstrate that the data-driven power flow calculation method, considering topological changes, can rapidly and accurately compute power flow results when topology alterations occur.
