Power load parameters are one of the most important parameters for power system model. The load has the characteristics of time‐varying, diversity and non‐linearity. Therefore, obtaining the load parameters accurately is crucial to the safe and stable operation of the power system. The research in this paper is based on the synthesis load model which takes into account the impedance of distribution network. The multi‐fault curves identification method and chaos‐whale algorithm are adopted to improve the accuracy and practicability of load parameter identification. First, the algorithm proposed in this paper applies chaos algorithm to whale algorithm, and uses the randomness and ergodicity of chaos algorithm to make up for the shortcomings of the whale algorithm that the solution accuracy is not high and it is easy to fall into local optimum. Secondly, the identification method of multi‐fault curves is to select several different faults for parameter identification, and the average value of each group of results obtained is regarded as the final result. Then compared with single curve identification, the multi‐fault curves method is more superior. Finally, the accuracy of the results is verified by other faults. Simulation results show that the method is reliable to a certain extent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
