Fuel and energy system control at large-scale damages. 1. Network model and software implementation

Resumo

A dynamic network flow model for analyzing aggregated energy supply processes, including the extraction, processing, transport, transformation, and redistribution of the main fuel and energy resources is prorosed. The changes in the functional characteristics of the energy system under large-scale disturbances are analyzed. The model is used to identify control strategies for energy flows in a damaged network. During optimization calculations, the set of problems on a single-product flow of the minimum value is solved. In addition, the software system based on the proposed model is described. The software system has an option to specify the locations of damage and scenarios for the subsequent restoration of network elements with the aim of fulfilling the user demands on the amount of energy supply. The proposed approach can be used to analyze the functional vulnerability of spatially distributed resource supply systems.
