The invention relates to the technical field of power systems, and discloses a
branch cutting method and device for accelerating
power system security constraint unit commitment solution. In the
branch and bound process, if the relaxation problem of a target node has no solution, simple single-point
pruning is not carried out any more, but a network constraint minimum illegal model is constructed, and if no solution is caused by network constraint, global feasible
cut is generated through a
Lagrange multiplier at an optimal solution, so that the network constraint minimum illegal model is constructed. The global feasible
cut is a constraint condition of a specific unit commitment mode which causes a relaxation problem to have no solution, and the global feasible
cut is added to a
branch and bound cut
pool, so that a subsequent infeasible solution similar to the specific unit commitment mode can be
cut off, a large amount of repeated invalid exploration in a
branch and bound process is avoided, solution is accelerated, and the problem is solved. The safety and the economical efficiency of
power grid dispatching are ensured; the global feasible cut is strictly based on the strong duality theory, it is ensured that the feasible solution or the optimal solution cannot be cut by mistake, and the feasibility and optimality of the security constraint unit commitment solving result are fundamentally guaranteed.
