Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of distribution network voltage over-limit management technology, specifically to a distribution network end voltage over-limit management method that considers the static stability operating domain of flexible on-load tap-changing transformers. Background Technology
[0002] As the penetration rate of distributed photovoltaic (PV) power in distribution networks continues to increase, the operation mode of distribution networks is gradually shifting from traditional unidirectional power supply to bidirectional power flow interaction. Due to the randomness and volatility of PV output and its mismatch with load demand timing, the power flow distribution of distribution networks is becoming increasingly complex, which can easily lead to problems such as local voltage exceeding the upper limit at PV grid-connected nodes, low voltage at feeder end nodes, and aggravated node voltage fluctuations. These issues seriously affect the power supply quality, PV absorption capacity, and equipment operation safety of the distribution network.
[0003] To address the aforementioned voltage exceedance issue, existing technologies primarily employ on-load tap changers (OLTCs), parallel capacitor banks, and reactive / active power regulation of photovoltaic inverters. However, OLTCs rely on mechanical tap switches for discrete tap adjustment, resulting in low adjustment accuracy, slow response speed, and limited tap switch operation frequency due to mechanical lifespan constraints, making it difficult to mitigate frequent voltage fluctuations caused by high-proportion photovoltaic grid connections. Parallel capacitor banks can only perform discrete reactive power compensation through group switching, resulting in coarse-grained adjustment. The reactive power regulation capability of photovoltaic inverters is constrained by the remaining capacity of their converters; while reducing active power output can suppress voltage exceedances, it reduces photovoltaic power generation revenue and grid integration levels.
[0004] Flexible on-load voltage regulating transformers (FOVRTs) are a new type of voltage regulating device that combines the discrete coarse adjustment capability of traditional on-load tap changers with the continuous fine adjustment capability of power electronic converters (PECs). They have advantages such as a large voltage regulation range, fast response speed, and high regulation accuracy, and can, to a certain extent, make up for the shortcomings of the above-mentioned traditional voltage regulation methods and improve the voltage regulation capability of the distribution network. Reference [1] (LEE HJ, YOON SW, YOON Y D. Hybrid distribution transformer based on an existing distribution transformer and a series-connected power converter[J]. IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, 2022, 37(5): 4202-4211.) discloses a hybrid distribution transformer based on an existing distribution transformer and a series-connected power converter, which combines the capacity advantage of mechanical voltage regulation with the continuous regulation advantage of power electronic voltage regulation; Reference [2] (HANL, YIN J, WU L, et al. Research on the novel flexible on-load voltage regulator transformer and voltage stability analysis[J]. Energies, 2022, 15(17): 6189.) further discloses a topology and voltage regulation control strategy of FOVRT, and verifies its effectiveness in improving the voltage level of the distribution network.
[0005] However, existing research on FOVRT still has the following shortcomings: Firstly, existing research mainly focuses on the topology, local control strategies, and basic voltage regulation characteristics of FOVRT, such as the technical solutions disclosed in references [1] and [2]. However, the static stable operating boundary formed by the combined action of OLTC discrete adjustment and PEC continuous compensation is not sufficiently characterized. As can be seen from the characteristics of the PV curve, there is a corresponding maximum transmittable power limit under each operating condition, namely the nose point of the PV curve. After the operating point crosses the nose point, there is no stable voltage solution in the system, and the voltage regulation capability of the voltage regulating device is constrained by the downstream transmittable power level. Although reference [3] (POMPODAKIS EE, KRYONIDIS GC, ALEXIADIS MC. A comprehensive three-phase step voltage regulator model with efficient implementation in the Z-bus power flow[J]. Electric PowerSystems Research, 2021, 199: 107443.) discloses a refined three-phase power flow model for step voltage regulators, which improves the modeling accuracy of voltage regulating equipment in power flow calculation, it only models the discrete tap characteristics of mechanical regulating equipment and does not involve the characterization of the stable operating domain under the coupling effect of discrete taps and continuous power electronic compensation. Therefore, the existing technology cannot accurately define the safe and feasible range of PEC compensation amount under different OLTC taps.
[0006] Secondly, in the process of system-level coordinated voltage regulation, most of the existing voltage management schemes follow the modeling ideas of reference [3], simply equating the voltage regulation equipment with an adjustable voltage source, or only applying upper and lower limits of the turns ratio to it before participating in optimization. They do not include the static stable operating domain of FOVRT, which is jointly determined by the characteristics of the PV curve and the equipment capacity, as a physical constraint in the coordinated voltage regulation optimization. This can easily lead to excessive PEC compensation action or even saturation, unclear division of labor between discrete regulation resources and continuous regulation resources, and even cause the equipment operating point to approach the stable boundary represented by the nose point of the PV curve, affecting the safe and stable operation of the equipment.
[0007] Therefore, how to combine the characterization of the FOVRT static stable operating domain with the collaborative voltage regulation optimization of multiple devices in the distribution network, and rationally allocate the regulation tasks of regulation resources such as OLTC, PEC, capacitor banks and photovoltaic inverters, and achieve voltage over-limit management at the end of the distribution network while ensuring that the equipment operating point does not approach the static stability boundary, is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved to improve the voltage quality and operational stability of the distribution network in high-proportion photovoltaic access scenarios. Summary of the Invention
[0008] To address the issues of voltage exceeding limits at the distribution network end under high-proportion distributed photovoltaic (PV) grid integration and the tendency for the operating point of flexible on-load tap changers (FOVRTs) to approach the static stability boundary, this invention provides a method for mitigating voltage exceeding limits at the distribution network end, considering the static stability operating domain of FOVRTs. This method embeds the FOVRT static stability operating domain, constructed based on the PV curve, as a safety constraint into a discrete-continuous two-layer collaborative optimization model containing on-load tap changers (OLTCs), capacitor banks, power electronic converters (PECs), and PV inverters. This approach ensures that the equipment operating point does not exceed the stability boundary represented by the nose point of the PV curve, improves the nose point margin, and suppresses PEC saturation and boundary triggering. It also achieves a clear division of labor between discrete coarse adjustment and continuous fine adjustment, and the coordinated use of multiple adjustment resources. This effectively suppresses node voltage exceeding limits, reduces the maximum system voltage deviation, and improves the coordination, precision, and operational safety of distribution network voltage regulation.

[0020] This invention provides a method for mitigating voltage exceedance at the end of a distribution network, considering the static stability operating domain of flexible on-load tap-changing transformers. The technical advantages are as follows: 1) This invention constructs a static stable operating domain model and an equivalent turns ratio model for a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer based on the characteristics of the PV curve. By determining the power limit represented by the nose point of the PV curve at each tap position using the criterion of the existence of a stable voltage solution, a tap-by-taper stable operating slice is formed. Compared with existing technologies that only focus on topology, local control strategies, and basic voltage regulation characteristics, this invention, for the first time, clearly defines the safe and feasible operating range of the equipment under the combined action of discrete tap-changing and continuous compensation. This solves the problem of insufficient characterization of the static stable operating boundary in the background technology and provides a clear physical constraint basis for the equipment to participate in distribution network system-level voltage regulation.
[0021] 2) This invention embeds the static stable operating domain constraint as a shared coupling constraint between the discrete and continuous layers into the collaborative voltage regulation optimization, ensuring that the operating point at the beginning of the flexible on-load tap-changing transformer maintains a safety margin relative to the stability boundary represented by the nose point of the PV curve at all time periods. Compared with existing technologies that merely equate the voltage regulating equipment to an adjustable voltage source or only apply upper and lower limits of the turns ratio, this invention effectively suppresses excessive or even saturated compensation actions of the power electronic converter, preventing the equipment operating point from approaching the unstable region and solving the safety hazards caused by ignoring the stable operating domain constraint in system-level voltage regulation in the background technology.
[0022] 3) This invention reconstructs the voltage regulation division of labor within a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer by switching between continuous regulation within a stable operating slice and discrete tap-changing triggered by the slice boundary: the on-load tap changer undertakes the phased setting of the voltage reference, while the power electronic converter focuses on small-scale, refined continuous compensation. Compared with the existing technology where the division of labor between the two types of regulation resources is unclear and continuous equipment is forced to replace discrete equipment for large-scale voltage regulation, this invention makes the regulation behavior of the power electronic converter more stable and centralized, and the actions of discrete equipment more phased and regular, thus improving the coordination and regulation quality of the voltage regulation system.
[0023] 4) This invention integrates various regulation resources, such as on-load tap changers, capacitor banks, power electronic converters, and photovoltaic inverters, into a unified discrete-continuous dual-layer collaborative optimization framework for joint operation, fully leveraging the complementary advantages of discrete coarse adjustment and continuous fine adjustment. Compared with existing technologies where various regulation methods are controlled locally and lack system-level coordination, this invention can effectively suppress the phenomenon of local voltage exceeding the upper limit at photovoltaic grid-connected nodes, raise the low voltage at the end of the feeder, reduce system voltage deviation, and improve node voltage distribution, thereby improving the voltage quality and photovoltaic absorption capacity of the distribution network in scenarios with high proportion of photovoltaic access.
[0024] 5) The synergistic optimization of this invention aims to suppress voltage overruns, reduce the number of on-load tap changer adjustments, lower capacitor bank switching costs, reduce network losses, and improve the smoothness of continuous regulation. While ensuring voltage compliance, it reduces the frequent operation of mechanical tap changers and capacitor banks. Compared to existing technologies that only target voltage deviation, this invention can extend the service life of on-load tap changers, reduce distribution network losses, and achieve a balance between voltage quality, equipment lifespan, and operational economy.
[0025] 6) This invention employs a double-layer nested encoding and fuzzy triple black hole solution mechanism. The outer layer encodes only discrete control variables, while the inner layer solves for continuous control variables. It balances global exploration and local fine-grained search through three types of black hole centers, fuzzy control mutation, and adaptive parameter updates. Compared to traditional single particle swarm optimization algorithms, this invention effectively avoids getting trapped in local optima in discrete-continuous coupling optimization, improving convergence stability and solution feasibility, thus making the generated collaborative voltage regulation scheme valuable for engineering applications.

[0036] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0037] This paper proposes a method for mitigating voltage exceedance at the distribution network end within the static stable operating domain of a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer (OTCT). The overall concept is as follows: A steady-state equivalent model of the OTCT is established based on the collaborative voltage regulation mechanism of the OCT and the power electronic converter. A static stable operating domain model and an equivalent turns ratio model are established based on PV curve characteristics, tap position switching relationships, and the continuous compensation capability of the power electronic converter. Static stable operating domain constraints are embedded into the distribution network system-level variables based on the mapping relationship between local operating quantities and distribution network head-end operating quantities. A discrete-continuous two-layer collaborative optimization model is constructed using the OCT tap position, capacitor bank switching status, power electronic converter regulation, and reactive power output of the photovoltaic inverter as control variables. A distribution network voltage exceedance mitigation model considering the stable operating boundary is constructed by establishing power flow balance constraints, equipment operation constraints, and static stable operating domain constraints. The fuzzy triple black hole algorithm is used to solve the established two-layer optimization model. Finally, simulation verification is performed in the MATLAB environment using the MATPOWER software package. This method can effectively suppress node voltage overshoot in scenarios with high proportion of photovoltaic grid connection while ensuring that the operating point of the flexible on-load tap-changing transformer is within the static stable operating range, thereby improving the coordination, precision and operational safety of distribution network voltage regulation.
[0038] Example 1: like Figure 3 As shown, the distribution network end voltage over-limit mitigation method of this embodiment includes the following steps: S1: Steady-state operation mechanism analysis of flexible on-load tap-changing transformers: Flexible on-load tap-changing transformers combine the discrete coarse adjustment capability of traditional on-load tap changers with the continuous fine adjustment capability of power electronic converters. Their single-phase topology is as follows: Figure 1 As shown. Analyzing its steady-state operation mechanism, the relationship between the grid-side voltage and the load-side voltage is as follows: (1); (2); In the formula: This is the equivalent voltage of the upstream power supply referred to the secondary side; This is the secondary side voltage; , These are the equivalent active power and equivalent reactive power downstream of the output side of the flexible on-load tap-changing transformer, respectively. , , These are the sum of the equivalent impedances, equivalent resistances, and equivalent reactances of the line and the power electronic converter, respectively. For transformer turns ratio; , These are the equivalent resistance and equivalent reactance of the line, respectively. , These are the equivalent resistance and equivalent reactance of the power electronic converter, respectively. It is the imaginary unit.
[0039] Separating the real and imaginary parts of the above equation, we get: (3); In the formula: for and The phase difference between them. Squaring and adding the two equations above, using... eliminate , get about quartic equation: (4); The load power factor relationship is as follows: (5); In the formula: This refers to the phase angle between the load-side voltage and current. Let be the apparent power of the load. Substituting the load power factor relationship into the above fourth-order equation and solving, we obtain the PV relationship between the secondary voltage and active power: (6); (7); In the formula: To solve for intermediate variables; The equivalent active power is The corresponding secondary voltage. This PV relationship shows that, for a given downstream transmission power level, the voltage regulation capability of a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer has an upper limit. This characteristic is the physical basis for the subsequent characterization of the static stable operating domain.
[0040] S2: Construction of Static Stable Operating Domain Model and Equivalent Variation Model: The above model describes the basic voltage regulation principle of a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer, which is a static model. However, in actual distribution network operation, load levels and distributed generation output vary significantly over different time periods, therefore the impact of time variables on the location of the operating point needs to be considered. Let... Transform the PV relationship into a quadratic equation in one variable: (8); For the system to operate stably, the following criterion must be met: the existence of a real voltage solution. (9); Its physical meaning is: when When the above quadratic equation has no real solution, it means that there is no stable voltage operating point at this active power level, and the system experiences static voltage instability. The corresponding running point is the nose point of the PV curve, which determines the first... The active power limit corresponding to the lower nose point of each gear. .
[0041] Power electronic converters inject compensation voltage Changing the equivalent ratio is expressed as: (10); In the formula: The turns ratio of a power electronic converter, which is obtained by providing a compensation voltage equivalent, is not the actual mechanical turns ratio, but an additional equivalent turns ratio obtained by equivalent conversion on the secondary side, and does not change the magnitude of the overall mechanical turns ratio. It represents the difference in turns ratio between two adjacent on-load tap changer positions.
[0042] Fixed gear Stable operation slices under Defined as And it satisfies: (11); In the formula: This is the on-load tap changer position; , Given respectively The lower and upper boundaries of the stable operating voltage. The above adjustment range constraint limits the equivalent transformation ratio of continuous compensation to within half a range, which allows the continuous fine adjustment to be precisely connected with the discrete coarse adjustment range of adjacent ranges, avoiding over-level compensation.
[0043] When load changes cause voltage deviations exceeding the regulation range of the power electronic converter, it is necessary to adjust the tap changer to expand the voltage regulation range. The turns ratio model is as follows: (12); In the formula: The tap changer ratio is for the on-load tap changer. , These are its minimum and maximum gears, respectively.
[0044] This determines the switching conditions for the voltage regulation mode: when and At that time, continuous regulation is performed independently by the power electronic converter; when And the running point is close At the boundary, the on-load tap changer is triggered to switch from the tap position. Adjust to Subsequently, the power electronic converter re-enters a small-range adjustment. Combining discrete tap-changing and continuous compensation capabilities, the equivalent turns ratio of the flexible on-load tap-changing transformer is: (13); In the formula: This refers to the equivalent turns ratio of a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer. For example... Figure 2 As shown, as the operating point moves, the PV curve evolves under the alternating action of discrete gear adjustment and continuous compensation, and the stable operating slices of each gear are connected in sequence to form a complete static stable operating domain.
[0045] S3: Mapping between local operating quantities and distribution network head-end operating quantities: To facilitate the embedding of the aforementioned local static model into the distribution network time-series collaborative optimization model, a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer is installed between the upstream power source node 0 and the distribution network's first-end node 1: the output voltage in the local model... Voltage corresponding to system layer node 1 Downstream equivalent active power Equivalent reactive power These correspond to the active power flow sent downstream from the branches of node 0 to node 1 to the distribution network. and the trend of no effort Gear positions in the static model With equivalent variation The corresponding expansion is to time period variables. and ,in: This is used to number the scheduling period. Correspondingly, the statically stable operating domain constraints are expressed at the system level as: (14); In the formula: Gear position at time t The corresponding stable running slice.
[0046] S4: Construction of a multi-device collaborative voltage limit mitigation model: S4.1. Discrete layer modeling: The discrete layer provides the on-load tap changer position and capacitor bank switching status, which determines the system voltage reference level and discrete reactive power compensation capability.

This algorithm performs its functions according to the process of "outer layer encoding - inner layer solving - fitness evaluation - black hole update - fuzzy mutation", as follows: S6.1. Double-layer nested encoding: Because this model adopts a double-layer nested solution framework, the outer layer particle only encodes the discrete layer control variables. The continuous layer control variables do not participate in the direct encoding of the outer layer particle, but are solved separately by the inner layer optimizer after the outer layer particle is given.

The repair operation ensures that the updated particles always remain within the feasible range of the decision variables.

[0060] S6.4. Triple Black Hole Update and Fuzzy Mutation: Setting Three Types of Black Hole Centers: (50); In the formula: Let be the globally optimal particle position in the q-th iteration; , These are the upper and lower bound vectors of the search space, respectively. The three black hole centers are respectively positioned at the global optimal position, the midpoint between the global optimal position and the upper bound, and the midpoint between the global optimal position and the lower bound. This guides particles to gather towards the optimal region while also exploring the upper and lower bound regions of the search space, preventing the population from prematurely gathering at a single point.

The confidence strategy allows trapped particles to migrate to the global optimum with a high probability and escape to the upper and lower boundary center with a certain probability, thus achieving a balance between convergence and diversity.
[0063] To enhance population diversity, fuzzy control of mutation probability is defined: (54); And perform mutation updates on particles that meet the mutation conditions: (55); In the formula: This is the mapping function for the fuzzy controller, which uses the optimal fitness value of the current population. fitness standard deviation and fitness fluctuation value As input, when the fitness of the population tends to be concentrated, the mutation probability is increased to escape the local optimum; when the population is in an effective exploration state, the mutation probability is reduced to protect the superior individuals. Let be the variable-length coefficient of the d-th dimension variable; It is a random number in the interval [0,1].
[0064] Simultaneously, an adaptive parameter update strategy is introduced: (56); In the formula: , These are the upper and lower limits of the inertia weight, respectively; , and , These represent the upper and lower bounds of the individual learning factor and the group learning factor, respectively. The inertia weight decreases linearly with iteration, ensuring strong global search capability in the early stages and enhancing local convergence capability in the later stages. The learning factor increases quadratically with iteration, causing particles to converge to the optimal position more quickly in the later stages. After convergence, the cooperative voltage regulation scheme corresponding to the optimal particle is output.

(57); (58); In the formula: The gear corresponding to time t The PV curve nose point has the active power limit; $T$ is the threshold for determining proximity to the boundary; $|T|$ is the total number of scheduling periods.
[0066] S7: Application and Simulation Verification of Collaborative Voltage Regulation Scheme The collaborative voltage regulation scheme obtained from the S6 solution is applied to the operation and control of the distribution network to achieve voltage over-limit management at the end of the distribution network in scenarios with a high proportion of photovoltaic (PV) grid connection. Simulation verification is performed in the MATLAB environment using the MATPOWER software package. Specifically, the process includes: first, substituting the multi-device collaborative model into the fuzzy triple black hole algorithm and writing a calculation program; then, setting the simulation input conditions, including key parameters such as PV and load data, equipment parameters, algorithm parameters, and grid connection node locations; finally, running the calculation program by changing the input parameters, obtaining the corresponding result indicators, and comparing the results with and without static stable operating domain constraints under the same algorithm conditions to analyze the effectiveness of the proposed method in managing voltage over-limits.
[0067] Example 2: like Figure 5 As shown, a case study is conducted using an improved IEEE 33-node power distribution system, with a flexible on-load tap-changing transformer installed between the upstream power node and node 1. Figure 6 The predicted curves for load active power and photovoltaic active power output are shown in Table 1. The main parameters of the example are shown in Table 1, and the main parameter settings for the fuzzy triple black hole algorithm are shown in Table 2.
[0068]
[0069]
[0070] Three comparison scenarios are set up: Scenario 1 is a multi-device collaborative scheme without considering the constraints of the static stable operating domain; Scenario 2 is a multi-device collaborative scheme considering the constraints of the static stable operating domain, i.e., the scheme of this invention; Scenario 3 is the baseline scheme, which only performs power flow calculations on the improved IEEE 33-node system.
[0071] Figure 7 This is the curve showing the change in the maximum voltage deviation of the system before and after voltage regulation in Scenario 2. Figure 7 It can be seen that the maximum voltage deviation of the system after optimization in scenario 2 is suppressed in most periods, especially during the periods of high photovoltaic output at noon and significant load fluctuations in the evening. This shows that the collaborative optimization strategy considering the constraints of the static stable operating domain has advantages in mitigating extreme voltage fluctuations.
[0072]
[0073] As shown in Table 3, compared with the baseline scenario 3, the maximum node voltage in both scenario 1 and scenario 2 decreased from 1.052 pu to 1.000 pu, indicating that the collaborative optimization has a significant inhibitory effect on voltage exceeding the upper limit. The minimum node voltage increased to 0.579 pu and 0.610 pu, respectively, and the maximum voltage deviation decreased to 0.421 pu and 0.390 pu, respectively, indicating that both optimization scenarios can alleviate extreme voltage deviations. Among them, scenario 2, which considers the constraints of the static stable operating domain, performs better in raising the minimum voltage and reducing the maximum deviation.
[0074]
[0075] As shown in Table 4, after considering the static stable operating domain constraint, the overall system head-end operating point is far away from the stability boundary, the minimum nose point margin increases from 1.632 MW to 1.795 MW; the saturation duration ratio decreases from 4.17% to 0, and the number of boundary triggers decreases from 1 to 0. This indicates that the static stable operating domain constraint can effectively suppress the behavior of the power electronic converter approaching the regulation boundary in certain periods and improve the safety margin of the head-end operating point.
[0076] Figure 8 and Figure 9 The comparisons of the regulation magnitude and smoothness of the power electronic converter under two scenarios are presented. Compared to Scenario 1, the overall amplitude of the regulation trajectory in Scenario 2 is smaller, and the increments in adjacent time periods are more concentrated. This indicates that under the constraints of the static stable operating domain, the power electronic converter undertakes more small-scale, refined compensation tasks, rather than replacing discrete equipment for large-scale voltage regulation. The maximum value, standard deviation, and interquartile range of its regulation increment all decrease significantly, while the average value only decreases slightly. This suggests that the main effect of the static stable operating domain constraints is not to significantly reduce the average regulation level, but rather to reduce the violent fluctuations and dispersion near the boundary, making the regulation behavior more stable and concentrated.
[0077] Figure 10 This paper compares the on-load tap changer operation strategies under two scenarios. Considering the constraints of the static stability operating domain, the tap changer operation becomes more phased and regular. The system no longer relies solely on the power electronic converter to complete continuous corrections; instead, it uses the discrete tap changer capability to readjust the head-end voltage reference in a timely manner, thus preserving reasonable fine-tuning space for the power electronic converter at the overall level. Therefore, the practical effect of the static stability operating domain constraints is mainly reflected in: firstly, increasing the safety margin of the relative stability boundary of the operating point and suppressing saturation and boundary triggering; and secondly, strengthening the hierarchical coordination relationship from discrete coarse adjustment to continuous fine adjustment, making the functional division of the two types of regulation resources clearer.
