Robust Power Flow Methodologies for Distribution Networks with Distributed Generators

摘要

A method predicts power flow in a distributed generation network of at least one distributed generator and at least one co-generator, where the network is defined by a plurality of network nonlinear equations. The method includes applying an iterative method to the plurality of network nonlinear equations to achieve a divergence from a power flow solution to the plurality of network nonlinear equations. The method also includes applying the iterative method to find a first solution to a plurality of simplified nonlinear equations homotopically related by parameterized power flow equations to the plurality of network nonlinear equations. The method further includes iteratively applying the iterative method to the parameterized power flow equations starting with the first solution to achieve the power flow solution to the plurality of network nonlinear equations.
