| Abstract |
With the rapid increase of contingency cases due to complication of power system, the reduction of computation time in contingency analysis has become more significant than ever before. This paper deals with the development of a fast contingency analysis algorithm by using a matrix decomposition method. The proposed matrix decomposition method of contingency analysis yields an accurate solution by using the original triangular factor table. An outstanding feature of this method is of no need of factor table modification for network changes due to contingency outages. The proposed method is also applicable to multiple contingency analysis withremarkable reduction of computation time. The algorithm has been tested for a number of single and multiple contigencies in 17-bus and 50-bus systems. The numerical results show its applicability to practical power systems. |
