This paper presents a unified power flow algorithm for large and complex mixed AC/DC power systems based on the partitioning of power grids, a version of the two-level Newton method, and the modified nodal analysis formulation. Partitioning significantly increases numerical efficiency without altering the accuracy of the power flow solution. This approach can be applied to any combination of multiple DC and possibly non-synchronized AC systems. It considers the steady-state interaction of AC and DC systems for a wide range of converter representations and control functions. Simplification of elements within the converter stations is not required. Both DC and AC-side converter losses are adequately accounted for by using a generalized converter loss model. The steady-state converter equations are derived in their most general form, with the AC and/or DC-side power exchange or voltages defined as controlled quantities.

Abstract
This paper presents a unified power flow algorithm for large and complex mixed AC/DC power systems based on the partitioning of power grids, a version of the two-level Newton method, and the modified nodal analysis formulation. Partitioning significantly increases numerical efficiency without altering the accuracy of the power flow solution. This approach can be applied to any combination of multiple DC and possibly non-synchronized AC systems. It considers the steady-state interaction of AC and DC systems for a wide range of converter representations and control functions. Simplification of elements within the converter stations is not required. Both DC and AC-side converter losses are adequately accounted for by using a generalized converter loss model. The steady-state converter equations are derived in their most general form, with the AC and/or DC-side power exchange or voltages defined as controlled quantities.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
