Joint Grid Topology Reconfiguration and Design of Watt-VAR Curves for DERs
Manish K. Singh, Sina Taheri, Vassilis Kekatos +2
Operators can now remotely control switches and update the control settings for voltage regulators and distributed energy resources (DERs), thus unleashing the network reconfigurat…
Natural Gas Flow Solvers using Convex Relaxation
Manish Kumar Singh, Vassilis Kekatos
The vast infrastructure development, gas flow dynamics, and complex interdependence of gas with electric power networks call for advanced computational tools. Solving the equations…
Designing Power Grid Topologies for Minimizing Network Disturbances: An Exact MILP Formulation
Siddharth Bhela, Deepjyoti Deka, Harsha Nagarajan +1
The dynamic response of power grids to small transient events or persistent stochastic disturbances influences their stable operation. This paper studies the effect of topology on…
Designing reactive power control rules for smart inverters using support vector machines
Mana Jalali, Vassilis Kekatos, Nikolaos Gatsis +1
Smart inverters have been advocated as a fast-responding mechanism for voltage regulation in distribution grids. Nevertheless, optimal inverter coordination can be computationally…
On the Flow Problem in Water Distribution Networks: Uniqueness and Solvers
Manish K. Singh, Vassilis Kekatos
Increasing concerns on the security and quality of water distribution systems (WDS), call for computational tools with performance guarantees. To this end, this work revisits the p…
