However, existing energy dissipation equipment hardly fulfills demands. A novel device of GaInSn liquid metal arcing is expected to be used in energy dissipation branch of circuit breakers to dissipate energy in high-voltage DC system. In this paper, a liquid metal energy dissipation test platform is built, and self-shrinking trigger and arcing mechanism of gallium indium tin (GaInSn) liquid metal is studied in arc process. Key parameters affecting energy dissipation in liquid metals arcing process are discovered. Energy dissipation channels of cylindrical and conical hole structures are proposed, and their arcing process and energy dissipation characteristics are explored. Energy dissipation of liquid metal is separated to four phases: contraction phase, arc starting phase, liquid metal phase change of arc-burning phase, arcing extinction and liquid metal recover phase. Effects of channel structure and current amplitude on energy dissipation characteristics of GaInSn liquid metal are studied. A finite element simulation model of GaInSn liquid metal is constructed in arc process, and temperature distribution is analyzed in liquid metal arcing energy dissipation process. Peak values of temperature for cylindrical and conical through-holes structure are clarified. Finally, topology of hybrid DC circuit breaker based on composite energy dissipation of GaInSn liquid metal and Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) is proposed, and simulation model of liquid metal and MOV composite energy dissipation is constructed. The energy dissipation ratio and distribution of liquid metal and MOV under different structures are explored. Results of study provide guidance for liquid metal energy dissipation module with other energy dissipation components.","PeriodicalId":10729,"journal":{"name":"CSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems","volume":"12 4","pages":"2149-2161"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10376015","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148746954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These energy links reflect the energy interaction between the generator and the grid, and between the generators during oscillation. Then, the dissipation energy representing the damping characteristics is extracted. Thus, the contribution degree of each interaction is quantitatively evaluated. On this basis, the influences of the current loop parameters, PLL parameters, the integration distance and the reference value of active current on the stability level are revealed, and the effect mechanism of generator-grid interaction and inter-generator interaction on sub-synchronous oscillation is clarified. Finally, a model of direct-drive wind farm is built, and the simulations show that, the generator-grid interaction and inter-generator coupling interaction are the key factors that affect the energy distribution.

The proposed model addresses network loss by formulating a fixed-point equation for voltage angles, effectively accounting for the impact of network losses through the introduction of a virtual load. Furthermore, an inverse function of the complex power equation is derived to calculate voltage magnitudes, with the voltage angles serving as input. To evaluate the performance of the proposed model, extensive case studies are conducted on various test systems, ranging from small-scale to large-scale networks, including a real-world power grid. The results demonstrate the high accuracy of the proposed DC power model regarding voltage angles and magnitudes, active and reactive power. Importantly, the model showcases its ability to overcome power flow convergence issues, providing reliable and precise solutions in situations where the traditional Newton-Raphson algorithm fails to converge.

To achieve maximum social welfare and privacy preservation, continuous double auction (CDA) serves as an effective mechanism. However, bidding decision-making in the P2P market is challenging owing to intense market dynamics and a lack of a co-ordinated bidding strategy. Despite enabling intelligent bidding, existing multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) methods often lack a solid theoretical understanding of market behavior. In this context, this paper proposes a theoretically interpretable Trading Policy Monotonic Improved Learning (TPMIL) template featuring rigorous proof and sequential updates to the agents. It facilitates the interpretation of bidding strategies, understanding of market status through preceding agents' policies, and coordinated joint policy updates. Furthermore, a practical algorithm, i.e., Monotonic-Improved Trust Region Policy Optimization (MI-TRPO), is cast onto the template to optimize the bidding strategy, which eliminates potential bidding conflicts among peers and stabilizes the training process. Case studies on the modified IEEE 33-bus system show the proposed method can yield stable P2P outcomes and reduce community costs.","PeriodicalId":10729,"journal":{"name":"CSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems","volume":"12 4","pages":"1728-1739"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11006358","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148747536","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To protect this system from short circuits, the pole-to-ground (PTG) fault current calculation is of vital importance. However, PTG fault analysis faces three major challenges: nonlinear characteristics introduced by LCC, asymmetry of PTG fault and inherent coupling between DC transmission lines. In this paper, in light of the nonlinear obstacle, DC characteristics of LCC and its specific nonlinear form are analyzed. Then, for system-level fault current calculation, a linear transient model is established for LCC with the piecewise linearization method. To address the asymmetry and coupling issues, a common- and differential-mode (CDM) transformation-based analysis method is proposed. By transforming the multi-terminal hybrid HVDC system into CDM networks, analytical expressions of PTG fault currents are presented in this paper. Analytical expression of PTG fault current reveals the underlying fault mechanism, and can be used to select proper fault protection equipment, the validity of which is fully verified by PSCAD/EMTDC simulation.","PeriodicalId":10729,"journal":{"name":"CSEE Journal of Power and Energy Systems","volume":"12 4","pages":"1975-1984"},"PeriodicalIF":5.6,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=10058884","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148746829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most previous studies on coupled networks focus on the formation of equilibrium states between transportation and distribution networks but neglect diminishing the adverse influences of the interaction, especially the voltage quality problems caused by large and fluctuating charging loads. This paper constructs a dynamic interaction model of coupled networks considering both economic and safe operation. First, the dynamic traffic assignment problem is established considering both departure time and route choices, and a dynamic queuing model is designed to describe the EV queuing behaviors at fast charging stations (FCSs). Then, the charging load fluctuation toll is designed as an ancillary toll at FCSs and the bus voltage deviation penalty is considered in optimal power flow to guide the interaction of two networks and tackle the voltage deviation issue. Moreover, the equilibrium state is designed as a fixed-point problem and the solution's existence is proved under mild assumptions. Third, linearization and convex relaxation techniques are used to improve computational efficiency and a Monte Carlo simulation technique is developed to evaluate the influence of uncertain travel demands on coupled networks.
