Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of electromagnetic transient simulation of power systems, and in particular, relates to a network division scheme index evaluation method suitable for parallel simulation of power distribution systems. Background Art
[0002] With the access of a large number of distributed power sources and power electronic devices, the "double high" characteristics of the distribution network are becoming more and more obvious, which increases the computational burden faced by the electromagnetic transient simulation of the system. To deal with this problem, parallel simulation has become an effective solution. This method divides the complex power system into multiple subsystems and distributes them to different CPU cores for parallel solution, thereby improving computational efficiency.
[0003] When performing subnet division for parallel simulation of distribution networks, reasonable load distribution is the key to ensuring simulation efficiency. Different types of new energy equipment and their control parts have significant differences in simulation calculation volume. Therefore, it is of great research value to reasonably introduce this factor into the balance evaluation index of the subnet scheme to improve the overall performance of parallel simulation. Summary of the invention

It fully considers the differences in simulation calculation amounts under different power electronic switch models, quantifies the solution complexity based on the number of states of the control system, and proposes a network division imbalance index, which provides an effective balance evaluation index for network division schemes in distribution network scenarios.

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is described in detail in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation cases described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. The technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments of the specification:
[0028] Embodiment 1:
[0029] An evaluation index for network partitioning schemes suitable for parallel simulation of power distribution systems, such as Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:
[0030] S1, quantify the simulation computing resource distribution of the sub-network according to the electromagnetic transient analysis method and define the sub-network imbalance index;
[0031] S1.1, considering that electromagnetic transient simulation is essentially to solve a set of mathematical equations related to the state variables of the system. Considering the simulation efficiency, most simulation solving programs are currently established under the framework of node analysis method.
[0032] This method uses node voltage as the state variable, discretizes the component-level model to form a differential equation, and combines the differential equations into the following algebraic equations:
[0033] Gu=i
[0034] Where G is the node admittance matrix of the system, u is the node voltage vector, and i is the equivalent injection current source.
[0035] S1.2, since the order of the equations formed by the node voltage method is closely related to the number of nodes in the system, and the distribution system usually also includes a control part, based on this, the quantification of simulation computing resources can be expressed by the following formula:
[0036]
[0037] Wherein, H is the simulation step size of the system, m, n, and d are the total number of branches, the number of conventional nodes, and the number of new nodes of the system respectively, and α i is the complexity value of the i-th branch, is the correction term brought by the cascade of the total branches, and β j is the complexity value of the j-th conventional node, and γ k is the complexity value of the k-th new node, and s is the complexity value of the control system in the new nodes.
[0038] S1.3. Assume that a large power distribution system is divided into 2 sub-networks. To reflect the difference in the calculation resource allocation between the two, define the unbalance index of the sub-networks:
[0039]
[0040] Wherein, is the average value of the simulation calculation amounts R p and R q of the 2 sub-networks.
[0041] S2. Consider the time-consuming difference brought by different power electronic switch models, and propose a method for determining the calculation complexity values of each branch and node;
[0042] S2.1. The complexity values of each branch and node are all based on the number of independent nodes included in the component. However, it should be noted that since the new nodes usually contain a large number of power electronic devices, the power electronic switch models therein will occupy more computing resources. For this reason, taking the single-stage photovoltaic power generation unit as an example, introduce the complexity values under its different switch models.
[0043] The typical topology of a single-stage photovoltaic power generation system is as Figure 2 shown. The common power electronic switch modeling methods mainly include the binary resistance model and the constant admittance model. The main difference between the two is that the binary resistance model needs to frequently update the node admittance matrix during the simulation, while the constant admittance model does not. According to experience, usually set the simulation calculation amount of the binary resistance model to 4 times that of the constant admittance model to reflect this influence. It can be seen from this that under the constant admittance model, the complexity value γ k of the single-stage photovoltaic power generation unit is 8, while under the binary resistance model, its complexity increases to 32.
[0044] S2.2. Since the order of the control system is usually directly related to the number of its state variables, the calculation complexity s of the control part can be determined by the number of states it contains.
[0045] S3. Build an IEEE 34-node test system including a photovoltaic power generation system to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
[0046] S3.1. In the improved IEEE 34 - node system established, calculate the index values at different sub - network points and conduct parallel simulations respectively to verify the effectiveness of the present invention.
[0047] Embodiment 2:
[0048] The distribution network established in this embodiment is an IEEE 34 - node system with a voltage level of 24.9 kV, and a photovoltaic power generation system is connected at node 840. The overall topological structure of the distribution network is as Figure 3 shown. Parallel simulations are respectively conducted for the following three sub - network schemes: 1) Sub - network at nodes 852 - 832; 2) Sub - network at nodes 850 - 816; 3) Sub - network at nodes 834 - 842.
[0049] Set two scenarios with simulation step sizes H = 10 μs and H = 5 μs, and adopt a fixed - step discrete solver. The simulation time is 2 s. The evaluation indicators under the three sub - network schemes and the measured simulation time consumption are shown in Table 1.
[0050] Table 1 Unbalance indicators of sub - network schemes and their parallel simulation time consumption
[0051]
[0052] In this embodiment, the corresponding relationship between the index values and the measured simulation time consumption is as Figure 4 shown. It can be seen that the higher the unbalance index value, the longer the time spent on parallel simulation. This is because the evaluation index proposed by the present invention can reflect the distribution of computing resources among sub - tasks. The higher the index value, the more uneven the load distribution, resulting in an increase in the synchronization waiting time during the parallel simulation process and affecting the simulation efficiency of the system.
[0053] In summary, the present invention provides an effective evaluation index for the sub - network scheme of the parallel simulation of a new - type distribution system, thereby providing a judgment basis for improving the parallel simulation performance of the system.
