Power flow calculation of AC/DC system

[YaeSakura1]

Respected Professor Hantao Cui：
I am a postgraduate student from Kunming University of Science and Technology, Yunnan Province, China. I would like to use your Andes software to realize the function of ac/DC power flow calculation.
I would be grateful if you could give me some valuable advice on whether this is possible.
Thank you very much

Hello @YaeSakura1,

You can start by looking at the example data file under cases/kundur/kundur_vsc.xlsx. The file defines DC Nodes, resistive lines, and voltage source converters (VSCShunt).

You can checkout the source code for VSCShunt, which can be a starting point for adding your own model.

What particular elements are you looking to add for AC/DC power flow?

I’m closing the issue for now. Feel free to reopen it.

Professor Cui Hantao:
Sorry for replying your email so late. Thank you for your suggestions and guidance.

I would like to ask you whether you have the system connection diagram of the kundur_vsc.xlsx transformed with the kundur four gernerator and two areas, or I need to draw the wiring diagram according to the table data.

I hope to add LCC and MMC models, it would be better if we can realize multi-terminal mixed DC and MMC-HVDC, and realize power flow calculation of AC-DC system

Thank you again
