EE 553 Course Project M, W 3:40-5:00, 204 Marston Dr. Jim McCalley |
Project objective: Using any language you like
(including Matlab), write a power flow program
capable of solving
1. via a full AC Newton
approach
2. via a fast-decoupled AC
Newton approach
3. via a DC power flow approach.
Use
your codes to solve the one-area IEEE Reliability Test System, described in this
paper.
Solve
the same network using the full AC Newton solver in PSS\E. Instructions for
accessing PSS\E are here.
Compare
your three solutions to the PSS\E solution.
Assuming
PSS\E gives the correct solution, draw conclusions in regards to the accuracy
of solution provided by
each of your three power flow codes.
Suggestions:
a. Assemble the data necessary
to run within PSS\E and run it there first. This will not only give you the
correct solution to use
in checking your code’s correctness, but it will also
provide you with the basis of some other assignments that will be assigned
shortly.
b. Use the provided paper to
help you understand the data. But you can reduce some typing time by using the
files provided here: http://www.ee.washington.edu/research/pstca/rts/pg_tcarts.htm. However, you are
responsible to ensure the data you use is
what is provided in the paper (i.e., check the data from
the website carefully).
What to turn in:
·
A report providing
o all data used by your
program;
o a table comparing voltage phasors (magnitude and angle) and all circuit flows (real
& reactive power) for all four ways of solving the network;
o observations regarding the
accuracy of voltage magnitudes, volage angles, MW
flows, and MVAR flows for each of your three methods - provide explanations why
one method would be more accurate than another;
o a description of situations
where it would be appropriate to use each of the various methods.
·
Your code.
Due date: October 1, 2012.
Disability Statement:
Please address any special needs or special accommodations with me at the beginning of the semester or as soon as you become aware. Those seeking accommodations based on disabilities should obtain a Student Academic Accommodation Request (SAAR) from the Disability Resources (DR) office. Any student who feels s/he may need an accommodation based on the impact of a disability should contact me privately to discuss your specific needs. Please contact the Disability Resources Office coordinate reasonable accommodations for students with documented disabilities. If you have a documented disability and anticipate needing accommodations in this course, please make arrangements to meet with me soon. Please request that a Disability Resources staff send a SAAR form verifying your disability and specifying the accommodations you will need. If you have a documented disability that requires assistance, you will need to go to the Disability Resource (DR) Office for coordination of your academic accommodations.
