Conventional methods that solve the state estimation problem at the transmission level require the grid to be observable, which does not apply to distribution grids. To make the distribution grid observable, researchers resort to pseudomeasurements, which are inaccurate. Also, the high integration of renewable energy introduces uncertainty, making the Distribution System State Estimation (DSSE) problem even more complex. This work proposes a deep neural network approach that solves the DSSE problem in unobservable distribution grids without employing erroneous pseudomeasurements.

The switches are triggered using segment reduced space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM). This modulation technique provides a lower number of switching transitions than existing PWM strategies. Consequently, the inverter switches experience a decrease in both switching stress and switching losses. A 3L-FTI is a diode-free structure that reduces the harmonics in the source current with a high power factor (PF), where instantaneous reactive power (IRPT) theory is employed to generate the reference currents from the utility grid. In contrast to traditional three-level inverters, two-thirds of switches in 3L-FTI can tolerate a voltage stress equal to half of the DC input voltage. While studying the behaviour of this shunt active filter, with three different nonlinear loading conditions, the current total harmonic distortion (THD) is reduced from 28.43% to 2.13% after compensation, which is under 5% of IEEE standard 519-2014.

Two of these approaches, namely, generation rescheduling and transmission switching are used together in this article. Changing the system topology through optimal transmission switching (OTS) is an important and active research area in power systems for this purpose. Essentially, OTS is a mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem that is inherently nonlinear and nonconvex. Therefore, solving this nonlinear problem poses significant challenges for researchers. On one hand, there is no guarantee of reaching a global optimal solution, and on the other hand, issues such as the lack of convergence and increased solution time have made it difficult to solve the OTS problem. Linearizing the OTS problem provides a guaranteed method for reaching a comprehensive optimal solution. This study presents a new linear mathematical model for the OTS problem. The proposed model is solved using mixed-integer linear programming (MILP), which accurately determines the opening or closing status of transmission lines and the number of lines that should be opened to reduce the generation and congestion costs in the network. To this aim, a linear programming and piecewise approximation, along with Taylor’s series approximation method, is used to linearize the generation cost function, and AC optimal power flow equations. To reduce the solution time of the OTS problem without losing accuracy, a congestion cost index is used based on decreasing the total congestion cost of transmission lines, as well as the production cost of generators. The proposed model is implemented on IEEE 9-bus and IEEE 118-bus standard test systems. Also, in order to analyze the reliability of the system before and after switching, two methods of contingency analysis and calculation of the LOLP index have been used. The obtained results show that transmission switching can reduce the generation cost and the total power system congestion cost as well.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51293,"journal":{"name":"International Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems","volume":"2025 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/etep/3620842","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143489707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, the exact prediction of RUL plays a vital part in the management of battery conditions. However, because of its complex working characteristics and intricate deterioration mechanism inside the battery, predicting battery life by evaluating exterior factors is exceedingly difficult. As a result, developing improved battery health management technology successfully is a massive effort. Because of the complexity of ageing mechanisms, a single model is unable to describe the complex deterioration mechanisms. As a result, this paper review is organised into three sections. First is to study about the battery degradation mechanism, the second is about battery data collections using mercantile and openly accessible Li-ion battery data sets and third is the estimation of battery RUL. The important performance parameters of distinct RUL forecast and estimation are categorised, analysed and reviewed. In the end, a brief explanation is given of the various performance error indices.

First, the distributed generators are regarded as agent nodes, and a small-world network model is established based on complex network theory. To overcome the subjectivity of relying on expert experience to select pinning nodes in previous pinning control methods, a selection algorithm that uses only nodes with large out-degree as pinning nodes is proposed to reduce the communication bandwidth requirement of the system. Second, the finite-time consensus algorithm and the pinning control method are integrated to form a finite-time consensus pinning control method. By introducing voltage and frequency correction in the primary control layer, the finite time consensus pinning control method is applied to design distributed secondary controllers. The finite-time stability of the system is analyzed through Lyapunov stability theory. Finally, a hardware-in-the-loop simulation platform is built in StarSim HIL. Compared to the traditional finite-time control method, the proposed method can reduce the peak deviation of nodes by at least 7.7%.
