A coordinated voltage control scheme based on linearized power flow functions for non-optimal and optimal problems

Abstract

This paper proposes a coordinated voltage control scheme for transmission systems based on linearized power flow functions to determine the set points of local control voltage devices. The scheme considers models and interactions between different devices to attain the appropriate performance (non-optimal or optimal) of the whole power system. The sensitivity analysis is used to formulate a partly linearized model that relates the voltage variations of buses to the reactive power variation of synchronous machines, settings of static VAr compensators (SVCs), shunt capacitors susceptance, and tap position of load tap changers (LTCs) to determine the set of the settings of the voltage control devices. Two formulations are proposed by considering the susceptance of SVCs or the slope and reference voltage of characteristics of SVCs as control variables. The developed formulation based on the linearized power flow functions provides the possibility of the practical implementation of the coordinated voltage control scheme, especially the optimal one, by reducing the model complexity and solving time. The performance of the proposed formulations is investigated by some studies of voltage control and an optimally coordinated problem on the IEEE 30-bus and IEEE 118-bus test systems.
