This paper presents a technique that can obtain an optimal solution for the Security-Constrained Economic Dispatch (SCED) problems using the Interior Point Method (IPM) while taking into account of the power flow constraints. The SCED equations are formulated by using only the real power flow equations from the optimal power flow. Then an algorithm is presented that can linearize the SCED equations based on the relationships among generation real power outputs, loads, and transmission losses to obtain the optimal solutions by applying the linear programming (LP) technique. Finally, the application of the Primal Interior Point Method (PIPM) for solving the optimization problem based on the proposed linearized objective function is presented. The results are compared with the Simplex Method and the Promising results ard obtained.

In a deregulated power market, a load model considered the characteristics of electric consumers is required and the congestion management of transmission lines should be resolved in a point of economic benefits. It is essential that the optimal power flow algorithm is applied to manage transmission line congestion. Therefore, in this paper, we implement the optimal power flow with object function of social welfare maximization based linear programming and analysis the nodal prices for generations and loads through a numerical study.

We present an approach to parallelizing optimal power flow (OPF) that is suitable for distributed implementation and is applicable to very large interconnected power systems. The objective of this paper is to find a set of control parameters with which the Auxiliary Problem Principle (Algorithm - APP) can be best implemented in solving optimal power flow (OPF) Problems. We employed several IEEE Reliability Test Systems to demonstrate the alternative parameter sets.

In the competitive electricity market, various pricing methods are developed and practiced in many countries. Among these pricing methods, marginal loss factor(MLF) can be applied to reflect the marginal cost of network losses. For the calculation of MLF, power flow method has been used to calculate system loss deviation. However, this power flow method shows some shortcomings such as necessity of regional reference node, and absence of an ability to consider network constraints like line congestion, voltage limit, and generation output limit. The former defect might affects adversely to the equity of market participants and the latter might generate an inappropriate price signals to customers and generators. To overcome these defects, the utilization of optimal power flow(OPF) is suggested to get the system loss deviation in this paper. 30-bus system is used for the case study to compare the MLF results by the power flow and the OPF method for 24-hour dispatching and pricing, Generator payment and customer charge are compared with these two methods also. The results show that MLF by OPF reflects the power system condition more faithfully than that of by the conventional power flow method

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.

일체형 조류제어기인 UPFC는 FACTS 기기중 가장 효과적인 기기 중 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 전력시스템에서 UPFC의 최적위치를 결정하는 데 필요한 컴퓨터의 계산을 줄이는 방법에 대하여 기술한다. 이를 위해 UPFC 제어 변수들과 관련된 발전 비용의 민감도가 평가되었다. 모든 송전선로의 UPFC 민감도를 얻기 위해 단지 한 번의 최적조류제어만으로 해결하였다. 전력시스템에서 UPFC의 최적 위치를 알아내기 위해 여러 권선비와 가변 션트 어드미턴스로 구성된 이상변압기 모델을 사용하였다. 이 모델에서 UPFC 제어 변수들은 UPFC 입 출력의 전류와 전압에 대해서 종속되지 않는다. 민감도 방법은 그의 효율성을 파악하기 위해 IEEE 14 모선에서 파생된 5 모선시스템과 IEEE 14 모선시스템을 대상으로 실험하였다.

Understanding of turbulent flow in the reactor coolant pump (RCP) is a premise of the optimal design of the RCP. Flow structures in the RCP, in view of the specially devised spherical casing, are more complicated than those associated with conventional pumps. Hitherto, knowledge of the flow characteristics of the RCP has been far from sufficient. Research into the nonintrusive measurement of the internal flow of the RCP has rarely been reported. In the present study, flow measurement using particle image velocimetry is implemented to reveal flow features of the RCP model. Velocity and vorticity distributions in the diffuser and spherical casing are obtained. The results illuminate the complexity of the flows in the RCP. Near the lower end of the discharge nozzle, three-dimensional swirling flows and flow separation are evident. In the diffuser, the imparity of the velocity profile with respect to different axial cross sections is verified, and the velocity increases gradually from the shroud to the hub. In the casing, velocity distribution is nonuniform over the circumferential direction. Vortices shed consistently from the diffuser blade trailing edge. The experimental results lend sound support for the optimal design of the RCP and provide validation of relevant numerical algorithms.

The present paper presents an optimal capacitor placement (OCP) algorithm for voltagestability enhancement. The OCP issue is represented using a mixed-integer problem and a highly nonlinear problem. The hybrid particle swarm optimization (HPSO) algorithm is proposed to solve the OCP problem. The HPSO algorithm combines the optimal power flow (OPF) with the primal-dual interior-point method (PDIPM) and ordinary PSO. It takes advantage of the global search ability of PSO and the very fast simulation running time of the OPF algorithm with PDIPM. In addition, OPF gives intelligence to PSO through the information provided by the dual variable of the OPF. Numerical results illustrate that the HPSO algorithm can improve the accuracy and reduce the simulation running time. Test results evaluated with the three-bus, New England 39-bus, and Korea Electric Power Corporation systems show the applicability of the proposed algorithm.
