I found the data in "small test system for power system economic studies". The problem is for getting this data do I need to run load flow? If yes how I can run it for 5 case buses. On Mon, Oct 16, 2017 at 8:59 PM, naime ahmadi wrote: > Sorry, you mean in the program. I

Branch data ratio and taps

2017-10-17 Thread Ahmad Sadiq Abubakar
Hi, all For a given case branch data r, x, b, assuming the branch is a transformer, between bus1 and bus2, with voltages V1 and V2 KV respectively. How do I obtain the Tap ration (column 9) and shift (column 10) of the branch matrix? I have simply used V1/V2 as the Tap ration while the shift is

Re: Branch data ratio and taps

The tap ratio is the off-nominal tap ratio, relating per-unit voltages, not kV voltages. So if both voltages are at their nominal values (i.e. both at 1 p.u.) then the TAP should be 1 and SHIFT should be 0. Ray > On Oct 17, 2017, at 6:23 AM, Ahmad Sadiq Abubakar >

How do you plan to model your renewable generators? As a simple MW injection (e.g. equivalent to a negative value in the PD column of the bus matrix)? As a zero-cost generator with a PMAX value that depends on the current wind conditions (why not simply add them to the gen matrix with a zero

Your original question was not clear enough for me to understand where you are having trouble. In the paper you mention, Table 1 gives the generator capacities (PMAX) and Table 7 gives the generator dispatch (PG), both of which match the case5 included in MATPOWER. To run the power flow, simply

Dear Ray, Thanks for your response. In my case, V1 is a generator bus with 1.025 p.u. and V2 is a known PQ bus with 1 p.u. This implied Tap is 1.02? On Oct 17, 2017 4:27 PM, "Ray Zimmerman" wrote: > The tap ratio is the off-nominal tap ratio, relating per-unit voltages, > not

Dear Ray, I am planning to add them as a simple MW injection with a negative value and then i want to control them. For example on the bus that a renewable generator is connected i am saving the results for the power flow and then i am setting some rules to control the renewable generator i.e

Well, that would only be true if it were a completely ideal transformer with no impedance. Even at the nominal tap ratio of 1.0 the voltages magnitudes will not be identical (as with a transmission line). Ray > On Oct 17, 2017, at 12:19 PM, Ahmad Sadiq Abubakar >

Dear Ray, Thank you for your response. It means that Table 1, 2,3 and 7 is given by manufacturer and table 6, 8 and 9 is calculated by power flow. On 10/17/17, Ray Zimmerman wrote: > Your original question was not clear enough for me to understand where you > are having
