Abstract-The formulation and computation of an optimal load shedding time algorithm is presented. This new concept was developed as an enhancement to the application of optimal load shedding for corrective control to support islanded power systems. The methodology combines nonlinear mathematical programming and discretized differential-algebraic power systems equations to estimate the optimal amount of load to be shed as well as the best time to shed it. Several simulated scenarios are studied and results presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
