The Estimation of Nodal Power Supply Reliability through the Network Connectivity by Complex Network Method

摘要

The paper studies the reliability of the power system from the perspective of node loads. The reliability of the whole system can be estimated by evaluating the power supply reliability of each node. A measure, "connectivity" observed at load node (Ci), is proposed. Ci is calculated through a recursion equation by evaluating the generation capacity that can be transferred from the further neighbor to the nearest neighbor of load node i. IEEE-30 bus system is taken as a test system. We calculated the index of 7 load nodes at 2 different load levels with different N-1 failures. The test results show that the variation of the index and that of the percentage load shedding at selected load nodes show good consistency.
