This invention discloses a method for selecting critical sections of a
power grid based on source-load
coupling, relating to the field of
power grid system dispatching technology. The method includes: calculating the source-load
coupling strength based on regional output and regional load; performing
power flow calculations on N-1 and N-2 fault sets to obtain fault
power flow values, and calculating preset section parameters and
fault propagation correlation matrices; selecting preliminary sections based on preset section parameters and preset state screening rules; calculating the disconnection criticality
score of the preliminary selected sections based on the source-load
coupling strength, preset section parameters, and section
fault propagation correlation matrix, and then selecting critical sections of the
power grid. This invention addresses the problems in existing technologies that fail to consider the
dynamic coupling relationship between source-load fluctuations and fault
power flow, and that rely solely on a single load rate during the
critical section selection and evaluation process, resulting in severely insufficient risk coverage.
