The optimal operation in distribution system is to select tie switches considering important elements(Load balance, Loss minimization, Voltage drop, Restoration index..) in distribution system. Optimal Tie Switches Selection is very important in operation of distribution system because that is closely related with efficiency and reliability. In this paper, a new algorithm considering important elements is proposed to find optimal location of tie switches. In the case study, the proposed algorithm has been testified using real distribution network of KEPCO for verifying algorithm and complex network for applying future distribution network.

Network reconfiguration is performed by opening/closing two types of switches, tie and sectionalizing switches. A whole feeder, or part of a feeder, may be served from another feeder by closing a tie switch linking the two while an appropriate sectionalizing switch must be opened to maintain radial structures. In loss reduction, the problem is to identify tie and sectionalizing switches that should be closed and opened, respectively, to achieve a maximum loss reduction. In this paper, it is introduced to propose the reconfiguration plan for loss reduction by using the Civanlar's loss reduction formular.

This paper proposes a new algorithm to find optimal location of open switches connecting feeders in distribuion system. In order to enhance power system reliability by minimizing outage area in case of fault, the load balance among the facilities such as transformers and feeders is considered to optimize. The combination of optimal position of normal open switches can be found by moving tie along the direct path connecting two feeders related to the open switch while the whole optimization problem is separated into many small problems. The proposed algorithm is shown by case study results that, it is simple and takes short calculation time to apply to the DAS (Distribution Automation System) in KEPCO (Korea Electric Power Cooperation).

Generally, an electrical distribution configuration is a radial system with one-way current in a distribution management system (DMS). All feeders in a DMS have tie-switches to make radial system. Sometimes, DMS should change a tie-switch for operation. In that case, the tie-switch has to be closed first; then a switch is opened as another tie-switch in order to prevent blackout for customers. At the moment when the tie-switch is closed, distribution system is operated in a loop state, not radial. Before the loop operation, DMS operator has to check any expected events for stable distribution system operation; and the most important event is a mis-operation of a protection relay. In addition, DMS operator should check voltage profile violation but a calculation method of section voltages had not been used. Thus, this paper proposes a calculation method of section voltages at a loop operation in a DMS. The proposed calculation algorithm is verified by Matlap Simulink.

According as economy grows, demand for power increases and satisfaction of customer about electricity quality is rising. There is in trend that investment expense by continuously increased supply of electric power equipment is on the increase continuously, but management efficiency improvement through curtailment of supply of electric power equipment investment expense through efficient operation is required rather than to increase investment. In this study, reconsidered about 6 divisions 3 ties that is distribution line basis configuration of Daejeon Geumsan area and analyzed division and tie present condition of truthful distribution System. Examined problem analyzing average division number, tie number and tie switch number, searched about most suitable division that consider load. Hereafter, I wish to take advantage of analysis result in most suitable division and tie of truthful distribution system for power failure section reduction and investment expense curtailment.

This paper presents an application of a improved branch exchange (IBE) algorithm with a tie branch power (TBP) flow equation to solve the Optimal Routing problem for operation of a radial Power system including power distribution system. The main objective of the Optimal Routing problem usually is to minimize the network real power loss and to improve the voltage profile in the network. The new BE algorithm adopts newly designed methods which are composed by decision method of maximum loss reduction and new index of loss exchange in loop network Thus, the proposed algorithm in this paper can search the optimal topological structures of distribution feeders by changing the open/closed states of the sectionalizing and tie switches. The proposed algorithm has been evaluated with the practical IEEE 32, 69 bus test systems and KEPCO 148 bus test system to show favorable performance gained.

최소 여유시간 우선(Least-Laxity First, LLF) 스케줄링 알고리즘은 작은 여유시간을 가진 태스크가 높은 우선순위를 갖는 스케줄링 알고리즘으로써 단일 프로세서 시스템에서 최적이고 다중 프로세서 시스템에서 준최적으로 증명되었다. 그러나 이 스케줄링 알고리즘은 여유시간 충돌이 발생하였을 때 태스크 간에 빈번한 문맥교환이 발생하게 되는 문제점이 있어 실용적이지 못하다. 본 논문에서는 과도한 문맥교환을 일으키는 LLF의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 다중 프로세서 시스템을 위한 MLLF/MP(Modified Least-Laxity First on Multiprocessor) 스케줄링 알고리즘을 제안한다. MLLF/MP는 태스크의 여유시간 역전이 발생하더라도 마감시간을 놓치지 않는 범위에서 태스크를 연속적으로 수행시킴으로써 빈번한 문맥교환이 발생하는 것을 방지한다. MLLF/MP 또한 다중 프로세서 시스템에서 준최적임을 증명한다. 모의 실험 결과를 통하여 MLLF/MP는 LLF보다 적은 스케줄링 오버헤드를 가짐을 보인다.

Distribution systems are operated in radial structure, but temporal loop structure could be founded the live load transfer. Main purposes of reconfiguration of distribution network are load balancing, loss minimization and voltage drop maintaining. In the loop structure, huge loop current can be flowed between two substations in case of large voltage angle difference. Protection devices of distribution line can be triped by this huge loop current. So, precise calculation of loop current is very important for secure switching. This paper proposes a novel calculation method of loop current using the voltage angle differences measured at the tie switches. Feasibility of the propose method has been verified by various case studies based on Matlab simulation.

Distribution networks are operated in radial fashion during the normal state. Loop configuration is also required temporally in case of live load transfer among the adjacent feeders. Voltage angles of each substation buses are very important data in order to calculate power flow of the loop structured distribution feeders. This paper proposes substation bus voltage angle calculation method using voltage angle difference measured at the normally open tie switches. Simulation case studies using Matlab simulink have been performed to establish feasibility of proposed method.

This paper proposes a new fault restoration method which adopts the recloser as top agent to release the problems of the data concentration and fault processing delay of the existing DAS(distribution Automation System) under the ubiquitous distribution system. In proposed method, top agent collects the data based on the multi-casting communication with the tie switches of the interconnection point, and then selects a closed switch(tie switch) to transfer the sound outage load to other feeders based on the heuristic search strategy step by step until the load transfer work is finished. Here, a new heuristic rule is developed which can guarantee the relational load balancing and line loss from the collected voltage data. Finally, the several faults are simulated for typical multi-section and multi-interconnection distribution system to prove the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, in particular, for each simulation cases, the load balancing index and line loss index of the obtained solution from the proposed method is compared with those of all of feasible solutions.
