Abstract

CVR is a technique for reducing power consumption by reducing the voltage of the system and many demonstrations and studies have been conducted in the past. Recently, SCADA-based or AMI-based VVC have been developed and the CVR is used as an important operation mode. Using a variety of instruments, CVR determines the optimal VVC control references by closed loop control. In this paper, we implemented RTDS-MATLAB integrated simulation environment for development and verification of CVR control algorithm based on voltage measurement. The voltage control device of distribution system was modeled using RTDS and MATLAB has constructed a controller that can measure and control the voltage of the simulation system of RTDS. After the capacitor, which is a reactive power control device, flattens the voltage of the system, the control algorithm reduces the voltage of the system by tap control of the OLTC based on the flatten voltage. The proposed system was verified by simulations.

CVR은 계통의 전압을 감소시켜 소비 전력을 줄이는 기술로, 과거 많은 실증과 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 최근, SCADA 기반 또는 AMI 기반의 VVC가 개발되면서 CVR이 중요한 운영 방식이 되었다. CVR은 다양한 계측기를 사용하여 폐루프 제어(closed loop control)방식으로 최적 VVC제어 지령치를 결정한다. 본 논문에서는 전압 계측기반 CVR제어 알고리즘 개발 및 검증을 위한 RTDS-MATLAB 연동 환경을 구현하였다. RTDS를 이용하여 배전 계통의 전압제어기기들을 모델링하고 MATLAB으로 RTDS의 모의 계통의 전압을 계측하고 제어할 수 있는 제어기를 구성하였다. 무효전력 제어기기인 캐패시터는 계통의 전압을 평탄화하고 계통의 전압 기반으로 OLTC의 탭 제어를 하여 계통의 전압을 낮추는 제어 알고리즘을 MATLAB을 통해 구현하였다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 제안한 시스템을 검증하였다.
