The Method of Checking Equations for Energy Resources Flows Data Validating

Abstract

The development of energy resources flows verify- ing methods is aimed primarily at automatic energy accounting systems improvement. Creation of the hi-technology energy resources metering and accounting systems supports the practical application of the total energy efficiency concept and enables the financial mutual settlements between the parties to be improved. The paper presents an advanced mathematical method of check- ing equations (CE) for monitoring the validity of metering data in the energy transportation networks. The analysis of CE mis- matches allows all the measurements of any energy resource flows to be divided into four groups: true, false, uncertain and untestable (critical). The method proposed in the paper gives an opportunity to detect bad data and its source. Also, it provides for a bad data filtering at the stage of data acquisition.
