Abstract: | The increasing expansion of electric power systems renders the power system operator's task increasingly complex. The integration into energy management systems of further analytical algorithms implies that more data has to be analysed by the control engineer. For these reasons and many others, more sophisticated tools are required by power engineers to ease the pressure under which they perform their task. The advent of knowledge-based systems has led to a new approach to the problem. The combination of expert systems and numerical algorithms can be advantageously exploited to assist the power system engineer in operating the system. This paper presents the development of a knowledge-based tool for grid system analysis. The tool, NETMAT (NETwork Modelling AssistanT) , is to be used to analyse the impact of grid system maintenance and modification procedures and of new generating plants on power utilities, and in particular on their ability to generate and sell electricity. NE TMAT consists of a number of numerical applications interfaced to an expert system shell through specific problem domain knowledge bases. Results are presented based on the use of the IEEE-30 busbar network as a test network. |
