Identifiability Analysis for Power Plant Parameter Calibration in the Presence of Collinear Parameters

2021-01-01
IEEEA good quality stability model is a key factor for accurate power system operations. Inaccurate parameters of the stability models affect the decision making which paves the way for serious consequences. Thus, it is necessary to calibrate the stability model parameters in a regular manner. There are several calibration methods in the literature which are based on simultaneous estimation of the parameters and states. However, not all of the model parameters are well estimable simultaneously. Simultaneous estimation of parameters with high collinearity may result in biased calibration results. In this paper, the trajectory sensitivity method is used to detect the sensitive parameters and construct the sensitivity matrix. Then, parameters with high linear dependency are identified using the sensitivity matrix. It is shown that, despite the high sensitivity of a parameter, its estimability degrades as the collinearity with other parameters increase. In this paper an identifiability analysis that detects the collinearity among the sensitive parameters is proposed. The proposed method is validated using WSCC 9-Bus System.

A Novel Parameter Error Identification Method for Power Plant Dynamic Models
Açılan, Etki; Göl, Murat (2023-01-01)
Incorrect parameters in a power plant dynamic model affect the analysis results and control decisions in a power system, which may have serious consequences. The online calibration techniques in the literature utilize sensitivity analysis to determine the identifiable parameters before the calibration, and treat the majority of sensitive parameters as potentially erroneous. Hence, the candidate parameter subset for calibration mostly consists of “distractors,” i.e. highly sensitive but already...

Dynamic models of power plants may change during its operation due to physical processes and human error. Inaccurate dynamic power plant models may affect the operation and planning of power systems. Hence, keeping the model updated is crucial. Traditionally, dynamic models of power plants are calibrated by offline staged tests. Recently, PMU based remote calibration techniques are developed in attempt to calibrating the dynamic models remotely and reducing the frequency of offline calibration. This paper p...
Rapid tracking of bus voltages using synchro phasor assisted state estimator
Göl, Murat; Floyd, Galvan (2012-10-10)
State estimation has a key role in secure operation of power systems and management of power markets. It calculates the optimal estimates of the system states using the available measurements. Increasing number of phasor measurement units (PMU) installed in power systems motivated their integration also into state estimators which so far relied solely on SCADA measurements. However, different refresh rates of PMU and SCADA measurements present a challenge in their efficient integration. This paper proposes ...

The design, optimization, and performance characterization of turbine prototypes for the development of a Microelectromechanical Systems spirometer is reported. Four different turbines were designed based on large-scale Savonius turbine architecture. The number of turbine blades was optimized through finite-element simulations to maximize the induced moment and rotational speed at normal breathing flow rates. The turbines were manufactured and tested for their speed performance with respect to input flow ra...
