A study of automatic contingency selection algorithms for steady-state security assessment of power systems and the application of parallel processing
thesis
posted on 2018-05-11, 09:12 authored by Ruth P. Saraiva LeaoThe performance of various Contingency Selection methods has been investigated
within the framework of accuracy for application to steady-state power system security
assessment and suitability for execution in a real-time environment.
In the study the following requirements have been considered:
(a) Effectiveness: in identifying contingencies which may cause limit violations
and discarding all others;
(b) Adaptability: to model both permanent and temporary changes in the
system;
(c) Flexibility: to model any number and type of contingencies;
(d) Computational efficiency: in terms of speed in selecting the sub-set of contingencies as
well as in terms of storage requirements;
(e) Ability: to update and augment on-line the list of contingencies given
the actual system operating data. [Continues.]
