Abstract: A system and method for analyzing steady-state powerflow in DC electrical networks in the presence of constant power loads and other nonlinear devices whose I-V characteristics can be modeled using algebraic functions. The networks include high power utility-size grids and microgrids, as well as vehicular, aircraft, and spacecraft power management and distribution systems. The method draws on the mathematical framework of the Holomorphic Embedded Loadflow Method (HELM), which has previously been applied in utility AC networks. The adaptation to DC systems depends on the choice of a proper embedding and a corresponding reflection condition on the embedded voltages. Additionally, the method is extended to nonlinear devices other than constant-power loads, such as photovoltaic panel sources, which are of interest for the power systems aboard spacecraft and other electric vehicles.

Abstract: A system and method for monitoring and managing three-phase power flows in electrical transmission and distribution networks through the use of a deterministic, non-iterative method using an holomorphic embedding and algebraic approximants for determining the power flows in the three phases of a power generating system having an electrical grid. Such method is capable of determining whether or not a physical solution to the load flow problem exists, or if the system is in a state of voltage collapse. It may be employed in either real-time or off-line analytic applications for balanced or unbalanced electric power systems, in particular for monitoring and analyzing unbalanced conditions in three-phase electrical networks and for the accurate calculation of short-circuit conditions.
