Voltage Control in Distribution Electric Rail Networks Using Reactive Power Sources Based on Agent-Based Approach

The article presents an algorithm of voltage coordinated management in distributive electric railway networks using the sources of the reactive capacity based on the agent approach. Voltage management in the electric network is implemented by the managing system coordinated between all local regulators inside the controlled zone. The authors present an approach to the coordination of the local regulators operation based on their possibilities ranking by the type of the action to achieve the global management purpose. By means of operational voltage management in the electric network it is proposed to use the linearization of the management task from behind the almost linear dependence of the comparative powers growth on the loads of separate units as a matrix of the sensitivity. The authors conducted the simulation and mathematical modeling of the implementation of the proposed algorithm in the distributive electric railways network and there.
