Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system steady-state analysis technology, specifically to an engineering calculation method for adapting flexible voltage regulation devices to the steady-state impact on distribution transformer areas. Background Technology

[0002] Conventional AC power flow calculation methods are based on a complete AC circuit model, considering voltage amplitude and phase angle, as well as the interaction between active and reactive power. However, the solution process for the nonlinear equations involved in this method is quite complex, especially in large-scale power grids, where the computational load increases exponentially. In the application scenario of transformer substations, although the scale of the substation is relatively small compared to the overall power grid, as the structure of the substation gradually becomes more complex, it may contain various types of electrical equipment and load characteristics. Some substations may have a large number of single-phase loads, leading to prominent three-phase imbalance problems. When dealing with three-phase imbalance problems, conventional AC power flow calculation methods often require complex transformations and adjustments to the model, increasing the difficulty and uncertainty of the calculation. In addition, there may be some special electrical equipment in the substation, such as power electronic devices. The nonlinear characteristics of these devices make it difficult for traditional AC power flow calculation methods to accurately simulate their impact on the voltage, power, and losses of the substation.

[0003] Flexible voltage regulators (FVRs), a new type of power equipment, offer rapid, flexible, and precise voltage regulation capabilities. They can monitor operating parameters such as voltage and current in the distribution area in real time and quickly adjust the output voltage according to preset control strategies, effectively solving problems such as voltage fluctuations, voltage deviations, and three-phase imbalances. Simultaneously, FVRs can improve the power factor and reduce line losses through flexible control of reactive power. Compared with traditional voltage regulating equipment, FVRs offer advantages such as fast response speed, wide adjustment range, high adjustment accuracy, and the ability to achieve independent three-phase adjustment, making them better suited to the complex and changing operating conditions of distribution areas.

[0004] Traditional AC / DC power flow methods suffer from limitations in terms of technical parameters and algorithm convergence in AC / DC hybrid distribution areas with flexible voltage regulators, failing to meet engineering calculation requirements. To fully leverage the role of flexible voltage regulators in distribution areas and achieve effective control and optimization of steady-state voltage, power, and losses, a suitable engineering calculation method is needed. This method can accurately assess the impact of flexible voltage regulators on various operating indicators of the distribution area under different operating conditions, providing a scientific basis for the selection of flexible voltage regulators, determination of installation locations, and formulation of control strategies. This ultimately improves the operating efficiency and power quality of the distribution area, reduces operating costs, and ensures the safe, stable, and economical operation of the power system.

[0067] At the second iteration, the PV node parameters are adjusted to an active power of and a reactive power adjusted to Qmax or Qmin; in subsequent iterations, the PV node is processed in the conventional PQ node manner, and the voltage difference between two consecutive iterations at the node satisfies |V k -V k-1 |< 0.001, then the power flow is determined to have converged;

[0068] S46. Two-stage power flow calculation, the calculation range is between the node connected to the slave inverter and the backend power supply users, and the voltage of the node connected to the slave inverter is the set voltage V set_low of the device. The node connected to the slave inverter is used as a new power source point, and the voltage is set to V set_low at this time. The backward-forward sweep method is used again to calculate the power flow in the lower section. If the voltage difference between two consecutive iterations at each node satisfies |V k -V k-1 |< 0.001, then the power flow is determined to have converged.

[0069] S47. When the photovoltaic power generation is large, the voltage V 从 at the slave machine end is > the voltage V 主 at the master machine end, the power flow is reversed and flows from the slave machine end to the master machine end. The photovoltaic power generation causes the voltage at the slave machine end to rise.

[0070] When the FVR device switches from voltage boost mode to power feedback mode, the surplus photovoltaic power from the slave end is transmitted to the host end through the internal DC bus and finally fed back to the upstream grid.

[0073] when And the master and slave voltages meet the requirements. When the power flow reverses, the buck mode is activated, at which point the slave node injects power. DC output power is P Fvr_out =S Fvr_out .

[0074] The data information of the distribution transformer area and related equipment in step S1 includes cable topology information, meter box / low-voltage user information, photovoltaic equipment information, time-series acquisition information, and flexible voltage regulation device information.

The flexible voltage regulating device information includes the equipment model, capacity, DC output voltage, rated AC output voltage, voltage regulation range, device loss rate, and standby loss.

[0076] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0077] 1. Fundamentally improves the efficiency and automation level of analysis work. Traditional methods rely on general simulation software or manual calculations, requiring professionals to manually construct data files, a tedious and error-prone process. This invention, through simple data encapsulation and automatic topology identification technology, can directly convert transformer, cable, meter box, and user data of a distribution area into accurate models required for full-phase power flow calculations. It achieves one-click automatic generation from raw data to calculation models, shortening the time required for preliminary preparation and greatly freeing up manpower.

[0078] 2. A two-stage refined calculation framework of "DC steady-state analysis - boundary construction - AC correction" is adopted. Existing AC power flow algorithms cannot effectively assess the impact of flexible voltage regulators on the DC side. The calculation framework of this invention first independently calculates the voltage fluctuations and losses on the DC side of the device, and then feeds them back as precise boundary conditions to the AC power flow correction process. This achieves decoupling and re-integration of AC and DC systems at the algorithm level, ensuring the accuracy and reliability of power flow calculation for new transformer substations that include flexible voltage regulators.

[0079] 3. This invention achieves visualization, intelligentization, and decision support-oriented analysis of the process and results. The core algorithm is encapsulated in a graphical user interface, allowing users to easily complete device access, parameter settings, and scenario simulations through intuitive operations such as clicking and selecting. Analysis results are presented in various formats, including topology coloring diagrams, trend curves, and multi-scheme comparison reports, making key indicators such as voltage exceedances, power flow distribution, and network loss changes readily apparent. This not only significantly lowers the technical barrier but also enables maintenance personnel to quickly assess the mitigation effects of different access locations and device capacities, providing efficient and accurate quantitative decision-making basis for equipment selection and mitigation scheme formulation, thus powerfully promoting the development of intelligent distribution network management and proactive voltage mitigation.
