Robustness Analysis of CPPS considering Power Flow Constraints

Abstract

Comprehensively considering the power flow constraints of the power network, the cyber-physical power system (CPPS) network integration model is established by combining with the topological structure information of the power network and information network. The Newton–Raphson method is used to solve the AC power flow distribution in the power network. Based on the interdependent network theory, a CPPS cascading fault analysis procedure considering the power flow constraints is given. Finally, the importance of CPPS network nodes is evaluated and analyzed. Simulation experiments are carried out with the IEEE39 node system as an example. The results show that some electrical components failures in the power network may lead to large-scale transfer of power flow, resulting in overloading of other electrical components or transmission lines. It promotes further cascade propagation of failures in the CPPS network, which eventually leads to a sharp decrease in the robustness of CPPS.
