线间潮流控制器建模及潮流优化方法

线间潮流控制器(interline power flow controller,IPFC)作为第3代柔性交流输电系统(flexible AC transmission system,FACTS)的代表性设备,具有强大的潮流调控能力。而IPFC的引入,会增加潮流优化(optimal power flow,OPF)问题的非凸性,导致其难以被准确、快速求解。为解决传统IPFC模型中等效电压源相角对应约束难以被凸化的问题,该文基于注入功率变量重新构造了IPFC的等效约束,并进一步利用数学变形、近似处理、二进制展开技术,对该模型进行凸化处理,将含IPFC的OPF问题从高度非凸的优化问题转化为混合整数二阶锥规划(mixed integer second-order cone programming,MISOCP)问题。最终,在仿真算例中完成近似误差分析,并利用Matlab/Gurobi求解MISOCP模型。结果表明,所提优化方法计算精度高,求解速度快,显著降低了系统发电成本,可为综合型FACTS的在线优化调控提供理论和技术支撑。

ATC enhancement in electricity markets with GUPFC and IPFC – A comparison

Available transfer capability (ATC) needs to be declared well in advance by the system operator to reserve transactions and avoid any congestion in the network. In this paper, an optimal power flow based approach has been utilized for bilateral/multi-transactions deregulated environment to obtain the ATC. The ATC has been obtained with generalized unified power flow controller (GUPFC) and interline power flow controller (IPFC) for intact and line contingency cases. The impact of ZIP load model has been evaluated on the ATC with both the devices. The main contribution of the paper is the comparison of the ATC obtained with. GUPFC and IPFC for intact and contingency cases with constant P,Q load model and ZIP load model. The results have been determined for intact and line contingency cases taking simultaneous as well as single transaction cases. The results obtained are also compared with DC/AC and PTDFs. The proposed method have been applied for IEEE 24 bus RTS.     

Robust modeling of the interline power flow controller and the generalized unified power flow controller with small impedances in power flow analysis

The interline power flow controller (IPFC) and the generalized unified power flow controller (GUPFC) are two innovative configurations of the convertible static compensator (CSC) of FACTS. In this paper, direct modeling of the practical series or/and shunt operating inequality constraints of the IPFC and the GUPFC in power flow calculations are presented. Special initialization of a solution with the IPFC and GUPFC is also derived. Furthermore, an impedance compensation technique is proposed to deal with the numerical instability or the numerical difficulty of the IPFC and GUPFC models when either their coupling transformer impedances are too small or they are transformer-less controllers. Condition number analysis of the Newton power flow equations is given to get insights of the numerical instability of the voltage sourced models of the IPFC and GUPFC with small impedances. Numerical examples are given based on the IEEE 118-bus system, IEEE 300-bus system and a large scale system with 1000-buses.     

Modeling of the generalized unified power flow controller (GUPFC)in a nonlinear interior point OPF

With the progress of installing the latest generation of FACTS devices, namely, the convertible static compensator (CSC), several innovative operating concepts have been introduced to the historic development and application of FACTS. One of the novel concepts is the generalized unified power flow controller (GUPFC) or multi-line UPFC, which can control bus voltage and power flows of more than one line or even a sub-network. The GUPFC should have stronger control capability than the UPFC. A mathematical model for the GUPFC consisting of one shunt converter and two or more series converters is developed and implemented in a nonlinear interior point OPF algorithm. Numerical results with various GUPFC devices based on the IEEE 30 bus system and IEEE 118 bus system demonstrate the feasibility as well as the effectiveness of the GUPFC model established and the OPF method proposed     

The influence of GUPFC FACTS device on small signal stability of the electrical power systems

In this paper a power injection model is presented for the Generalized Unified Power Flow Controller (GUPFC), which facilitates its representation in the electric power system (EPS). This model of the GUPFC device becomes an attractive option to be implemented in power flow and optimal power flow programs. An efficient structure for the GUPFC control system is also presented in the article. This can be used to represent the dynamics in both stability analysis of small perturbations, which is the focus of this work, and in transient stability analysis (large disturbances) of the EPS. Considering the most basic GUPFC configuration, the proposed structure can control four active and reactive power flows in two lines, the voltage at the common installation bus; addition to these characteristics inherent in the GUPFC, this device can provide damping for the electromechanical oscillations of the EPS, as a POD (Power Oscillation Damping) controller is coupled to the control loop. Simulations are performed on one multimachine test system, whose results are analyzed and discussed in this paper, in order to analyze the performance of the power injection model and its proposed control structure in the damping of oscillations.     

An Advanced IPFC Model to Reuse Newton Power Flow Codes

Complexities of computer program codes for Newton-Raphson load flow (NRLF) analysis are usually enhanced during power flow modeling of an interline power flow controller (IPFC). This is due to the fact that the contributions of the series converters of the IPFC are needed to be accounted for while computing bus power injections and Jacobian matrix elements. Also, the IPFC real power injection term along with its associated Jacobian matrix call for new codes to be written. In this paper an advanced IPFC model is proposed to address this issue, wherein an existing power system installed with IPFC(s) is transformed into an augmented equivalent network without any IPFC. To obtain the solution of the original network containing IPFC(s), the augmented network can easily be solved by reusing the existing NRLF codes, as this network is now devoid of any IPFC. Consequently, the complexities of the computer program codes are reduced substantially. Various practical device limit constraints of the IPFC can also be taken into account by the proposed model.     

Constraints Violation Handling of GUPFC in Newton-Raphson Power Flow

Generalized Unified Power Flow Controller (GUPFC) is one of the newest Flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices based on voltage source converters. This paper presents a developed model of GUPFC based on power injection approach. The series converters of GUPFC is represented by injected complex loads as function of the specified powers flow, while the shunt converter is represented as a synchronous condenser that provides the reactive power compensation to control the bus voltage magnitude. The main advantage of the developed model is that the original structure and symmetry of the admittance and Jacobian matrices can still be kept avoiding the changes of the original Jacobian matrix. Consequently, the complexities of the load flow are reduced. This model includes simple strategies for handling the operating constraints of GUPFC, including the injected series and shunt voltages magnitude, currents of the series and shunt converters, and the real powers exchanged in the converters. The strategies are based on decreasing one or more values of specified values or by modifying the specified values as a function of the required constraint limits. The developed model and proposed strategies for handling violation of GUPFC operating constraints are tested on IEEE test systems such as 57-bus and 118-bus systems.     

A current-based model of an IPFC for Newton–Raphson power flow

In this paper a new approach to modeling an interline power flow controller (IPFC) for power flow calculations by applying the Newton–Raphson method is presented as a continuation of the ideas already applied to static synchronous series compensator (SSSC). The presented approach differs from the methods proposed by other authors in terms of the interpretation of the device's branches. They are considered on the basis of their currents, and so it can, therefore, be denoted as a current-based model of an IPFC. First, the basic features of the IPFC are presented; as this is the basis for the current-based model that is incorporated into the Newton–Raphson load-flow model. Next, the basic equations are derived from the generic IPFC model. Further handling of the constraints is then discussed. The derived model was tested on the IEEE 57, IEEE 118 and IEEE 300 bus systems. The effectiveness of the proposed model's iteration procedure is compared with other models. The comparison is based on data available in the references. We have shown that the proposed model exhibits a faster convergence than other models, and in addition, the number of iterations needed to achieve the prescribed accuracy is almost constant, regardless of the location, a consideration of the constraints or the selection of the controlled variable.
