[0046] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application is further described in detail below in combination with the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and do not limit the present application.

[0047] The UPFC (unified power flow controller) is a new generation of flexible AC power transmission device with powerful functions and superior characteristics, which can simultaneously realize power flow control, AC bus voltage control, low-frequency oscillation damping, and improvement of system transmission capacity, and coordinated optimization control of multiple control objectives. For the problem of uneven power flow distribution in AC-DC power transmission systems, the UPFC can be used to actively control the power flow distribution to solve the bottleneck problem of transmission capacity at the cross section.

[0048] In the related art, the optimization calculation method for the UPFC installation node selection and capacity configuration in the pure AC power grid usually selects the installation node first, and then selects the UPFC capacity at the selected installation node.

[0049] However, the related art does not consider the influence between the installation node selection and the capacity configuration result, so the result obtained is a non-optimal solution. Moreover, the existing optimization configuration method of the UPFC installed in the power grid is only applicable to the AC power transmission system, and there is currently no research on the optimization configuration method of the UPFC installed in the AC-DC hybrid power transmission system. The optimization configuration model of the UPFC is a mixed integer nonlinear programming model, and the existing research usually directly solves it by using an intelligent algorithm, which is easy to fall into a local optimal solution and has low calculation efficiency.

[0050] Therefore, the present application provides a UPFC configuration method, device, equipment, storage medium and computer program product, which can reliably calculate the optimal solution of the UPFC installation node and capacity in the AC-DC power transmission system.

[0051] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 A UPFC configuration method is provided, and the embodiments of the present application are exemplified by the method applied to a terminal. It can be understood that the method can also be applied to a server, and can also be applied to a system including a terminal and a server, and can be realized through the interaction of the terminal and the server. The terminal can be, but is not limited to, various personal computers, notebook computers, smart phones, tablet computers, servers and the like. The server can be realized by an independent server or a server cluster composed of multiple servers. The UPFC configuration method comprises the following steps:

[0052] Step 101, obtaining an AC-DC optimization configuration model, the AC-DC optimization configuration model comprising a target function and a plurality of mixed integer convex programming constraint equations, the decision variables of the target function comprising an installation node and a UPFC capacity.

[0053] The access node and the UPFC capacity are considered to be closely related to the optimal configuration of the UPFC access node and the capacity, and are taken as decision variables of the AC / DC optimal configuration model. The AC / DC power transmission system includes a plurality of existing nodes, each of which is a sending end or a receiving end of a line in the AC / DC power transmission system. The access node refers to a position of the UPFC installed on the line in the AC / DC power transmission system. The configuration capacity of the UPFC refers to the capacity of the series and parallel transformers and the converter. The AC / DC optimal configuration model is used to calculate the position of the access node and the UPFC capacity when the UPFC is installed in the AC / DC power transmission system. The access node and the UPFC capacity obtained based on the AC / DC optimal configuration model are optimal solutions, which can effectively save economic costs and maximize the use of the UPFC. The objective function is to minimize the annual equivalent investment and operation cost of the AC / DC power transmission system.

[0054] In step 102, the known parameters related to the AC / DC power transmission system are input into the AC / DC optimal configuration model, and the objective function is solved based on the plurality of mixed integer convex programming constraint equations to obtain the access node value and the UPFC capacity value.

[0055] The known parameters are reference parameters for calculating the access node and the UPFC configuration capacity, and can include the number of UPFC configurations, the upper and lower limits of the internal parallel voltage source and the series voltage source of the UPFC, the fixed cost of the UPFC installation, the unit capacity installation cost of the UPFC, the configuration margin, the device discount rate, and the device service life, and other conventional known parameters. The AC / DC optimal configuration model can solve the objective function based on the plurality of mixed integer convex programming constraint equations to obtain the access node and the UPFC capacity, so that the UPFC can be accessed at the position of the access node to optimally control the power flow of the AC / DC power transmission system.

[0056] The UPFC configuration method described above first obtains an AC / DC optimal configuration model including an objective function and a plurality of mixed integer convex programming constraint equations. The decision variables of the objective function include the access node and the UPFC capacity. Then, the known parameters related to the AC / DC power transmission system are input into the AC / DC optimal configuration model, and the objective function is solved based on the plurality of mixed integer convex programming constraint equations to obtain the access node value and the UPFC capacity value. Since the AC / DC power transmission system takes the access node and the UPFC capacity as decision variables together for optimization calculation, the configuration result of the UPFC is an optimal solution. At the same time, since the AC / DC optimal configuration model includes a plurality of mixed integer convex programming constraint equations, the calculation efficiency, reliability, and accuracy of the AC / DC optimal configuration model are effectively improved based on the plurality of mixed integer convex programming constraint equations.

[0097] The configuration capacity of UPFC refers to the capacity of series and parallel transformers and converters, wherein the capacity required by series transformer and converter is generally greater than that of parallel transformer and converter, but in order to facilitate standby, the series and parallel transformers and converters of UPFC are configured to the same capacity in practice, that is, the capacity of series transformer is taken. Therefore, only the capacity of series transformer is taken as the decision variable of UPFC configuration capacity. The configuration capacity of UPFC should be greater than the transmission power of the added AC line and leave a certain margin. Therefore, the configuration capacity S i of UPFC is:

[0098] S i ≥u i ·P ij (1+α) (formula 17)

[0099] In the above formula, P ij is the active power at the sending end node i of the candidate configuration UPFC AC line i-j, and α is the margin of UPFC configuration capacity. Among them, P ij The calculation equation is as follows:

[0100] P ij =-V i 2 G ij +V i V j (G ij cosθ ij +Bij sin θ ij ) (Equation 18)

[0101] In order to facilitate actual operation management, it is necessary to add a maximum constraint on the number of UPFCs accessing the power transmission system:

[0102]

[0103] In the above formula, N max is the maximum number of UPFCs accessing the AC-DC power transmission system.

[0104] The upper and lower limit constraints of the variables of the AC-DC power transmission system include the upper and lower limit constraints of the active power and reactive power of the generator of the balance node of the AC system, the upper and lower limit constraints of the bus voltage amplitude, the upper and lower limit constraints of the active power flow of the transmission line, and the upper and lower limit constraints of the voltage amplitudes of the two equivalent voltage sources of the UPFC series and parallel:

[0105] x min ≤ x ≤ x max (Equation 20)

[0106] In the above formula, x = (P Gn , Q Gn , V i , P ij , V E , V B ), x min and x max are the lower limit and upper limit of the variable x, P Gn is the active power of the generator of the balance node, Q Gn is the reactive power of the generator of the balance node, V i is the bus voltage amplitude, P ij is the active power flow of the transmission line, V E is the voltage amplitude of the parallel equivalent voltage source, and V B is the voltage amplitude of the series equivalent voltage source.

[0107] The configuration model is obtained according to Equations 1 to 20. The above configuration model contains a plurality of mixed integer nonlinear constraint equations, which can be solved by using the solver SBB in the commercial software GAMS, but the calculation of the solver is very dependent on the selection of initial values, and it is easy to fall into local optimization, and the solving efficiency is also relatively low. Therefore, in order to improve the reliability and efficiency of model solving, the convex relaxation method is used to optimize the above configuration model, and the AC-DC optimization configuration model in the UPFC configuration method is obtained.

[0108] In one embodiment, the multiple mixed integer convex programming constraint equations in the AC-DC optimal configuration model include: an AC power flow constraint equation, a DC operating characteristic constraint equation, a UPFC configuration constraint equation, and a variable constraint equation; the AC power flow constraint equation is a constraint on the operating characteristics of the AC transmission line of the AC-DC power transmission system; the DC operating characteristic constraint equation is a constraint on the operating characteristics of the DC transmission line of the AC-DC power transmission system; the UPFC configuration constraint equation is a constraint on the configuration capacity of the UPFC accessed by the AC-DC power transmission system; and the variable constraint equation is a constraint on the upper and lower limits of the variables of the AC-DC power transmission system.

The variables in the variable constraint equation include the active power of the AC system balance node, the reactive power of the AC system balance node, the bus voltage, the active power flow of the transmission line, and the voltage amplitude of the two equivalent voltage sources. The variable constraint equation is formula 20.

[0111] Step 301: using a second-order cone relaxation method to perform convex relaxation processing on the original conventional node power balance equation to obtain the conventional node power balance equation, wherein the original conventional node power balance equation is a mixed integer nonlinear constraint equation, and the conventional node power equation is a mixed integer convex programming constraint equation.

[0112] The original conventional node power balance equation is formula 5. In order to improve the calculation efficiency and the reliability and accuracy of the calculation results, the second-order cone relaxation method is used to perform convex relaxation processing on the original conventional node power balance equation to obtain the conventional node power balance equation.

[0113] Specifically, intermediate variables R ij , I ij , and U i are introduced, and the intermediate variables satisfy the constraint of formula 21, and a linear equation of the first-order Taylor series expansion of the equation constraint that the sum of the phase angle differences of the node voltages at both ends of each branch in the loop is 0, so that the original conventional node power balance equation formula 5 and the line active power flow equation formula 18 can be convexly relaxed into formula 22.

[0114]

[0116] In the above formula, C k is the branch set included in the kth independent loop, G ii is the self conductance of node i, B ii is the self admittance of node i, P Gi is the lower limit value of P Gi , is the upper limit value of P Gi , Q Gi is the lower limit value of Q Gi , is the upper limit value of Q Gi , V i is the lower limit value of V i , is the upper limit value of V i , is the upper limit value of P ij , and ||·|| represents the two norm.

[0117] In step 302, the second-order cone relaxation method is used to perform convex relaxation processing on the original UPFC operation characteristic equation to obtain the UPFC operation characteristic equation, wherein the original UPFC operation characteristic equation is a mixed integer nonlinear constraint equation, and the UPFC operation characteristic equation is a mixed integer convex programming constraint equation.

[0118] In the formula 6, the original UPFC operation characteristic equation is obtained by using the second-order cone relaxation method to perform convex relaxation processing on the original UPFC operation characteristic equation, and the equation that the sum of the voltage phase angles of each branch in the UPFC is 0 is added, as shown in the formula 23, to obtain the UPFC operation characteristic equation, as shown in the formula 24.

[0119] θ sB + θ Br + θ rs = tan -1 (I sB / R sB ) + tan -1 (I Br / R Br ) + tan -1 (I rs / R rs ) = 0 (formula 23)

[0120]

[0121] In the formula 23 to 24, U s , R sE , I sE , R sB , I sBand other parameters are intermediate variables, that is, I sB , Bs , sB , Br , rB , Br , rB , rs , sr , rs , sr , sE , Es , sE , Es , s , r , E are intermediate variables, and satisfy equations in the form of formula 21, such as U s = V s 2 , U r and U E are the same; R sE = V s V E cos θ sE , I sE = V s V E sin θ sE , R sB = V s V B cos θ sB , I sB = V s V B sin θ sB , I Bs , I Br , I rB , R Br , R rB , R rs , R sr , I rs , I sr , R Es , I Es are the same.

[0122] In step 303, a second-order cone relaxation method is used to perform convex relaxation processing on the power balance equation of the original AC node of the DC converter station to obtain the power balance equation of the AC node of the DC converter station, wherein the original power balance equation of the AC node of the DC converter station is a mixed integer nonlinear constraint equation, and the power balance equation of the AC node of the DC converter station is a mixed integer convex programming constraint equation.

[0123] The power balance equations for the original AC node of the DC converter station refer to Equations 8 and 9. Similarly, the power balance equations for the original AC node of the DC converter station are obtained by applying a second-order cone relaxation method to perform convex relaxation.

[0124] Step 304: The original UPFC candidate node power balance equation is subjected to convex relaxation processing using a two-step convexization method to obtain the UPFC candidate node power balance equation. The original UPFC candidate node power balance equation is a mixed integer nonlinear constraint equation, and the UPFC candidate node power balance equation is a mixed integer convex programming constraint equation.

[0125] Specifically, a two-step convexity method is used to perform convex relaxation on the original UPFC candidate node power balance equation to obtain the UPFC candidate node power balance equation. This includes: performing convex relaxation on the original UPFC candidate node power balance equation using a second-order cone relaxation method, and then performing linearization using the Big-M method after convex relaxation to obtain the UPFC candidate node power balance equation.

[0126] The original UPFC candidate node power balance equation is Equation 7. Since Equation 7 is a mixed-integer nonlinear equation, a second-order cone relaxation method is first used for convex relaxation, thus transforming Equation 9 into Equation 25. Furthermore, because some equations in Equation 25 contain binary variables u... i Multiplying with continuous variables, we further linearize Equation 25 using the Big-M method. For example, we can introduce an intermediate variable ω into the first equation of Equation 25. i and φ i ,make ω i =φ i (1-u i This can be linearized into Equation 26, which is a part of the power balance equations for the UPFC candidate node. The other equations in Equation 25 are also linearized in the same way, thus transforming the nonlinear, non-convex constraint equations into convex constraint equations, resulting in the power balance equations for the UPFC candidate node.

[0127]

[0128]

[0129] In formulas 25 and 26, U j U r I rm R rmare intermediate variables, and also satisfy equations in the form of formula 21, and the definitions of the intermediate variables in formula 24 are the same, that is, as U r = V r 2 , R rm = V r V m cosθ rm , I rm = V r V m sinθ rm . R ij is the initial value of the first-order Taylor series expansion, I ij is the initial value of the first-order Taylor series expansion, and M is a positive number.

[0130] In the embodiments of the application, based on a second-order convex relaxation method, the mixed integer nonlinear constraint equation is converted into a mixed integer convex programming constraint equation, and the mixed integer nonlinear constraint equation in the configuration model is replaced with the mixed integer convex programming constraint equation, so that more efficient and reliable solving is realized, and an optimal configuration scheme of UPFC access node and UPFC capacity selection that minimizes the total investment operation cost of the AC / DC power transmission system is obtained.

[0131] In one embodiment, the construction process of the DC operation characteristic constraint equation includes: performing convex relaxation processing on an original conventional DC operation characteristic constraint equation by using a convex hull relaxation method to obtain the conventional DC operation characteristic constraint equation; and performing convex relaxation processing on an original flexible DC operation characteristic constraint equation by using a convex envelope method to obtain the flexible DC operation characteristic constraint equation.

[0132] The original conventional DC operation characteristic constraint equation is formula 10 to formula 12. There is a nonlinear term V i cosθ i in formula 12. When cosθ i is regarded as a continuous variable as a whole, the term is the multiplication of two continuous variables, and an intermediate variable w i = V i cosθ i is introduced. The convex hull relaxation method can be used to convert it into the following linear constraint:

[0133]

[0134] In formula 27, V imin is the lower limit value of V i , V imax is the upper limit value of V i , and (cosθ i )min the lower limit value of cos 0 i i the upper limit value of cos 0 max i

[0135] Since U i = V i 2 in the convexification process in formula 21, it is also necessary to add the quadratic equation of this non-convex equation. It can be converted into two convex inequality constraints as follows by using the convex hull relaxation method:

[0136]

[0137] After squaring both sides of formula 11, there is a nonlinear term An intermediate variable is introduced. It can also be converted into two convex inequality constraints by using the convex hull relaxation method, that is, formula 11 can be converted into convex constraints as follows:

[0138]

[0139] In formula 29, is the lower limit value of , is the upper limit value of .

[0140] Formulas 27 to 29 are the conventional DC operating characteristic constraint equations after convex relaxation processing.

[0141] For a VSC DC system, the original flexible DC operating characteristic constraint equation is formula 13 to formula 16. Since the phase angle difference 5 i between the AC node voltage connected to node i and the converter input voltage is a very small angle value, it can be considered that sin 5 i ≈ 5 i , cos 5 i ≈ 1, and then an intermediate variable L vi = M i V i , K vi = M i V i 5 i = L vi 5 i , O i = M i 2 is introduced, and formula 13 to formula 15 are converted into linear and convex inequality constraints by using the convex envelope method as shown in formula 30 to formula 33:

[0147] In one embodiment, the process of constructing the UPFC configuration constraint equation includes: linearizing the original UPFC configuration constraint equation using the Big-M method to obtain the UPFC configuration constraint equation, wherein the original UPFC configuration constraint equation is a mixed integer nonlinear constraint equation, and the UPFC configuration constraint equation is a mixed integer convex programming constraint equation.

[0148] The original UPFC configuration constraint equation is Equation 17. The Big-M method is used to linearize the original UPFC configuration constraint equation, introducing the intermediate variable ζ. i Let ζ i =u i P ij It can be linearized into Equation 34:

[0149]

[0150] In Formula 34, M is a positive number.

[0151] In summary, by performing convex relaxation on the non-convex constraints in the above configuration model, the original mixed-integer nonlinear programming model is transformed into a mixed-integer convex programming model. The mixed-integer nonlinear constraint equations in the configuration model are then replaced with the corresponding mixed-integer convex programming constraint equations, resulting in an AC / DC optimal configuration model. This model can then be solved using the commercial software GAMS by calling the solver GUROBI, and the optimal solution for the optimal configuration model of the AC / DC transmission system with UPFC can be obtained efficiently and reliably.

[0152] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of an improved IEEE39-bus AC / DC transmission system. The line 4-14 of the IEEE39-bus system is changed to access the LCC DC line, and the lines 11-6 and 11-12 are changed to access the three-terminal VSC DC line. The AC / DC transmission system is divided into two areas, and the six tie lines between the two areas, i.e., 9-39, 4-3, 14-15, 19-16, 24-16, and 22-21, are assumed to be candidate branches for configuring UPFC. The upper limit of the number of configured UPFC is given as two, and the feasible region of the internal parameters of UPFC is defined as: the upper and lower limits of the shunt voltage source V E are 1.0 and 0; and the upper and lower limits of the series voltage source V B are 0.5 and 0. The fixed cost of installing UPFC is 100 million yuan, the installation cost of unit capacity of UPFC is 420,000 yuan / MW, the margin a of configured capacity is 10%, the discount rate of equipment is 7%, and the service life is 30 years. The access node and the UPFC capacity are calculated according to the above AC / DC optimal configuration model, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0153]

[0154] (Table 1)

[0155] As shown in Table 1, the access nodes of UPFC calculated by the configuration model and the AC / DC optimal configuration model are the same, and both are at the node 14 in the line 14-15 in the AC / DC transmission system. The UPFC configuration capacities calculated by the two models are close to each other, and the capacity result of the AC / DC optimal configuration model is 4.3975 MW more than that of the original optimal configuration model, with a relative error of 0.96%. However, the annual equivalent investment and operation cost of the objective function is reduced by 15,408.4 yuan compared with the configuration model, with a relative error of 1.84%. It is shown that the proposed AC / DC optimal configuration model has high calculation accuracy, and can obtain a better configuration scheme than the configuration model. In terms of running time, the AC / DC optimal configuration model takes less time to solve than the configuration model, and has higher calculation efficiency. In addition, the solving speed and calculation result quality of the configuration model are highly dependent on the given initial value, and the configuration model is prone to fall into local optimum. The AC / DC optimal configuration model after convex relaxation can quickly and reliably solve the optimal solution under any given initial value, and has higher calculation reliability. Moreover, the obtained solution can save more annual equivalent investment and operation cost although a larger UPFC capacity is configured, i.e., a UPFC optimal configuration scheme with higher quality is obtained.

[0156] As shown in Table 2, compared with the optimal power flow calculation result of the AC-DC power transmission system without UPFC, the feasibility and economy of the UPFC-attached AC-DC power transmission system for actively improving power flow distribution and improving system transmission capacity are great. It can be seen that after the UPFC is attached, an equivalent voltage source with impedance is respectively connected in series and parallel with the transmission line, and by adjusting the voltage amplitude and phase angle of the equivalent voltage source, the power flow distribution of the transmission system can be actively improved. Compared with the optimal power flow calculation result without UPFC, the result of the UPFC configuration model and the result of the AC-DC optimal configuration model respectively make the transmission capacity of the line 14-15 increased by 14.2984 MW and 18.2961 MW, respectively, and make the system loss power decreased by 5.0348 MW and 7.6363 MW, respectively, and make the annual operating loss cost of the system saved by 30,070,880 yuan and 45,621,400 yuan, respectively, and make the annual equivalent total investment operating cost saved by 8,867,000 yuan and 24,275,400 yuan, respectively, which fully shows that the AC-DC power transmission system with the UPFC has high technical feasibility and good economy.

[0157]

[0158] (Table 2)

[0159] In conclusion, the UPFC configuration method proposed in the embodiments of the application adopts the AC-DC optimal configuration model to calculate the attachment node and capacity, the proposed optimal configuration method of the AC-DC power transmission system with the UPFC considers the collaborative operation of the conventional LCC DC and the multi-terminal flexible VSC DC two kinds of DC lines and the UPFC which are widely used in current power grid engineering. Meanwhile, the method considers the close correlation between the UPFC attachment node selection and capacity optimal configuration, and optimizes and calculates the attachment node selection and capacity configuration together. In the optimization model, the UPFC attachment node and configuration capacity are taken as decision variables together, which avoids the problem that the configuration scheme obtained by the method of selecting the point first and then determining the capacity cannot achieve the overall optimal solution. Further, the method is based on the convex relaxation technology, converts the mixed integer nonlinear programming model of the AC-DC power transmission system with the UPFC optimal configuration into a mixed integer convex programming model, can solve the optimal solution with higher quality, and has higher calculation efficiency.
