Optimization-based islanding of power networks using piecewise linear AC power flow

PA Trodden, WA Bukhsh, A Grothey… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2013 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this paper, a flexible optimization-based framework for intentional islanding is presented.
The decision is made of which transmission lines to switch in order to split the network while
minimizing disruption, the amount of load shed, or grouping coherent generators. The
approach uses a piecewise linear model of AC power flow, which allows the voltage and
reactive power to be considered directly when designing the islands. Demonstrations on
standard test networks show that solution of the problem provides islands that are balanced …

[PDF][PDF] Optimization-based Islanding of Power Networks using Piecewise Linear AC Power Flow

KIM McKinnon - Citeseer
In this paper, a flexible optimization-based approach to intentional islanding is presented.
The decision is made of which transmission lines to switch in order to split the network while
minimizing disruption, the amount of load shed, or grouping coherent generators. The
approach, uniquely, considers voltages and reactive power directly when designing islands,
since the optimization constraints include a piecewise linear model of AC power flow.
Solution of the MILP provides islands that are balanced in real and reactive power, satisfy …
