Two-phase flow, especially gas-liquid two-phase flow, has a wide application in industrial field. The diagnosis of two-phase flow parameters, which directly determine the flow and heat transfer characteristics, plays an important role in providing the design reference and ensuring the security of online operation of two-phase flow system. Computer tomography (CT) is a good way to diagnose such parameters with imaging method. This paper has proposed a novel image reconstruction method for thermal neutron CT of two-phase flow with improved simulated annealing (ISA) algorithm, which makes full use of the prior information of two-phase flow and the advantage of stochastic searching algorithm. The reconstruction results demonstrate that its reconstruction accuracy is much higher than that of the reconstruction algorithm based on weighted total difference minimization with soft-threshold filtering (WTDM-STF). The proposed method can also be applied to other types of two-phase flow CT modalities (such as X(𝛄)-ray, capacitance, resistance and ultrasound).

A multi-level optimal power flow(OPF) algorithm has been evolved from a simple two stage optimal Power flow algorithm for constrained power economic dispatch control. In the proposed algorithm, we consider various constraints such as ower balance, generation capacity, transmission line capacity, transmission losses, security equality, and security inequality constraints. The proposed algorithm consists of four stages. At the first stage, we solve the aggregated problem that is the crude classical economic dispatch problem without considering transmission losses. An initial solution is obtained by the aggregation concept in which the solution satisfies the power balance equations and generation capacity constraints. Then, after load flow analysis, the transmission losses of an initial generation setting are matched by the slack bus generator that produces power with the cheapest cost. At the second stage we consider transmission losses. Formulation of the second stage becomes classical economic dispatch problem involving the transmission losses, which are distributed to all generators. Once a feasible solution is obtained from the second stage, transmission capacity and other violations are checked and corrected locally and quickly at the third stage. The fourth stage fine tunes the solution of the third stage to reach a real minimum. The proposed approach speeds up the two stage optimization method to an average gain of 2.99 for IEEE 30, 57, and 118 bus systems and EPRI Scenario systems A through D testings.

This paper mainly proposes power flow algorithm using OOP(Object-Oriented Programming) in distribution power system. Because the most power system problems are calculated from power flow, it is an important part in power system. Recently, new power generation facilities are steadily installed in the distribution system connected with Microgrid which has been gaining popularity among the industry and utilities. This paper contributes to improve the power flow algorithm using OOP for efficient power flow according to the distribution system configuration fluctuated frequently.

This paper proposes a new Interior Point Method algorithm to improve the computation speed and solution stability, which have been challenging problems for employing the nonlinear Optimal Power Flow. The proposed algorithm is different from the tradition Interior Point Methods in that it adopts the Predictor-Corrector Method. It also accommodates the five minute dispatch, which is highly recommenced in modern electricity market. Finally, the efficiency and applicability of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated with a case study.

The power flow calculations(PFc) are the most important and powerful tools in power systems engineering. The conventional power flow problem is solved generally with numerical methods such as Newton-Raphson(NR). The conventional numerical method generally have some convergency problem, which is sensitive to initial value, and numerical stability problem concerned with jacobian matrix inversion. This paper presents a new PFc algorithm based on the improved genetic algorithm (IGA) which can overcome the disadvantages mentioned above. The parameters of GA, with dynamical hierarchy of the coding system, are improved to make GA a practical algorithm in the problem of real system. Some case studies with test bus system also present to show the performance of proposed algorithm. The results of proposed algorithm are compared with the results of PFc obtained using a conventional NR method.

SThis paper proposes a new dispatch scheduling algorithm in interconnected regional system operations. The dispatch scheduling formulated as mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) problem can efficiently be computed by generalized Benders decomposition (GBD) algorithm. GBD guarantees adequate computation speed and solution convergency since it decomposes a primal problem into a master problem and subproblems for simplicity. In addition, the inter-temporal optimal power flow (OPF) subproblem of the dispatch scheduling problem is comprised of various variables and constraints considering time-continuity and it makes the inter-temporal OPF complex due to increased dimensions of the optimization problem. In this paper, regional decomposition technique based on auxiliary problem principle (APP) algorithm is introduced to obtain efficient inter-temporal OPF solution through the parallel implementation. In addition, it can find the most economic dispatch schedule incorporating power transaction without private information open. Therefore, it can be expanded as an efficient dispatch scheduling model for interconnected system operation.

Continuation power flow is a tool that can trace the path of the solution from the base stable solution. However, the base stable solution cannot be calculated when the initial system load is too large to operate at a stable operating point. This case is called as unsolvable case. This paper presents implementation of the optimal load shedding algorithm on continuation power flow. It performs steady-state analysis of power systems at unsolvable case that can occur in contingency analysis. Numerical simulation on 20-bus test system demonstrates that the continuation power flow applying the optimal load shedding algorithm is robust at solvable and unsolvable cases.

This paper presents an algorithm for reducing congestion cost using decoupled optimal power flow. The main idea of this algorithm is to reduce the reactive power flows on the congested lines in reactive power optimization. New objective function for reducing congestion cost is proposed in the reactive formulation by introducing the shadow prices for congested lines. The proposed algorithm is tested for IEEE 14-bus sample system, and the results are presented and discussed.
