A new tool for reconfiguration of a distribution system

摘要

The present article describes the development of a tool for optimizing the operations of a power grid with renewable sources of energy. It also explains the origins and development of the “Solver Platform” as a software for determining the optimum power grid topology with respect to predicted information about consumption and generation of electric power in the selected intersections (nodes) of the analyzed grid. The functioning of the Solver Platform is explained through the interaction of its basic elements. In addition, the article clarifies the development of the mathematical model for the analyzed power grid as well as the user environment as a graphical extension to the mathematical apparatus of the Solver Platform system. Finally, the article delineates a system for selection of the optimum network topology with respect to the results obtained from the calculations of the parameters of the analyzed system in a type situation.
