This paper presents a network hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation system for modeling large-scale power systems. Researchers have developed many HIL test systems for power systems in recent years. Those test systems can model both microsecond-level dynamic responses of power electronic systems and millisecond-level transients of transmission and distribution grids. By integrating individual HIL test systems into a network of HIL test systems, we can create large-scale power grid digital twins with flexible structures at required modeling resolution that fits for a wide range of system operating conditions. This will not only significantly reduce the need for field tests when developing new technologies but also greatly shorten the model development cycle. In this paper, we present a networked OPAL-RT based HIL test system for developing transmission-distribution coordinative Volt-VAR regulation technologies as an example to illustrate system setups, communication requirements among different HIL simulation systems, and system connection mechanisms. Impacts of communication delays, information exchange cycles, and computing delays are illustrated. Simulation results show that the performance of a networked HIL test system is satisfactory.

This paper aims to create a secure environment for networked control systems composed of multiple dynamic entities and computational control units via networking, in the presence of disclosure attacks. In particular, we consider the situation where some dynamic entities or control units are vulnerable to attacks and can become malicious. Our objective is to ensure that the input and output data of the benign entities are protected from the malicious entities as well as protected when they are transferred over the networks in a distributed environment. Both these security requirements are achieved using cryptographic techniques. However, the use of cryptographic mechanisms brings additional challenges to the design of controllers in the encrypted state space; the closed-loop system gains and states are required to match the specified cryptographic algorithms. In this paper, we propose a methodology for the design of secure networked control systems integrating the cryptographic mechanisms with the control algorithms. The approach is based on the separation principle, with the cryptographic techniques addressing the security requirements and the control algorithms satisfying their performance requirements.
Transient stability analysis (TSA) plays an important role in power system analysis to investigate the stability of power system. Traditionally, transient stability analysis methods have been developed using time domain simulation by means of numerical integration method. In this paper, a new approach is proposed to model power systems as an integrated circuit and simulate the power system dynamic behavior by integrated circuit simulator. The proposed method modeled power grid, generator, governor, and exciter with high fidelity. The power system dynamic simulation accuracy and efficiency of the proposed approach are verified and demonstrated by case study on an IEEE standard system.
The modern power system is evolving with increasing penetration of power electronics introducing complicated electromagnetic phenomenon. Electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulation is essential to understand power system behavior under disturbance which however is one of the most sophisticated and time-consuming applications in power system. To improve the electromagnetic transient simulation efficiency while keeping the simulation accuracy, this paper proposes to model and simulate power system electromagnetic transients by very large-scale integrated circuit (VLSI) as a preliminary exploration to eventually represent power system by VLSI circuit chip avoiding numerical calculation. To proof the concept, a simple 5 bus system is modeled and simulated to verify the feasibility of the proposed approach.
A significant amount of converter-based generation is being integrated into the bulk electric power grid to fulfill the future electric demand through renewable energy sources, such as wind and photovoltaic. The dynamics of converter systems in the overall stability of the power system can no longer be neglected as in the past. Numerous efforts have been made in the literature to derive detailed dynamic models, but using detailed models becomes complicated and computationally prohibitive in large system level studies. In this paper, we use a data-driven, black-box approach to model the dynamics of a power electronic converter. System identification tools are used to identify the dynamic models, while a power amplifier controlled by a real-time digital simulator is used to perturb and control the converter. A set of linear dynamic models for the converter are derived, which can be employed for system level studies of converter-dominated electric grids.
With the recent proliferation of open-source packages for computing, power system differential-algebraic equation (DAE) modeling and simulation are being revisited to reduce the programming efforts. Existing open-source tools require manual efforts to develop code for numerical equations, sparse Jacobians, and discontinuous components. This paper proposes a hybrid symbolic-numeric framework, exemplified by an open-source Python-based library ANDES, which consists of a symbolic layer for descriptive modeling and a numeric layer for vector-based numerical computation. This method enables the implementation of DAE models by mixing and matching modeling components, through which models are described. In the framework, a rich set of discontinuous components and standard transfer function blocks are provided besides essential modeling elements for rapid modeling. ANDES can automatically generate robust and fast numerical simulation code, as well as and high-quality documentation. Case studies present a) two implementations of turbine governor model TGOV1, b) power flow computation time break down for MATPOWER systems, c) validation of time-domain simulation with commercial software using three test systems with a variety of models, and d) the full eigenvalue analysis for Kundurs system. Validation shows that ANDES closely matches the commercial tool DSATools for power flow, time-domain simulation, and eigenvalue analysis.
