Description
Summary:Backward/forward load flow algorithm is commonly used in the power system, particularly in radial distribution networks. However, the rapid development in the power electronics technologies makes power systems more flexible with the integration of Renewable Energy Resources (RESs) and compensation devices. Consequently, this paper presents simple models for wind turbine generators based on Squirrel Cage Induction Generator (SCIG) and Distribution Static Synchronous Compensator (DSTATCOM) into a backward/forward load flow algorithm. In the wind generator model, the mechanical powers are collected from the manufactures data where the electrical power is calculated through the SCIG equivalent circuit and injected as negative loads at the connected buses. The second model in this paper is the DSTATCOM devices which are utilized to recover the SCIG reactive power. In the proposed model, the connected DSTATCOM bus is converted to a voltage-controlled bus (PV-bus type) with zero active power. Moreover, the reactive power of the DSTATCOM is updated during the iterative process until the load flow convergence. The simplified models for both wind generators and DSTATCOM are validated based on standard IEEE 33-bus and 85-bus radial distribution systems. The obtained results show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed models.
