Diakoptics based on actors for simulating smart grid applications

This Work presents the Multilevel A-Diakoptics methodology (Diakoptics based on Actors) for the dynamic load flow simulation of hybrid distribution systems, which are power systems working at different base frequencies. A-Diakoptics combines the power of Diakoptics and the Actor model to make any conventional power flow analysis method suitable for multithread processing. As a result, the nature and complexity of the power system can be modeled without affecting the computing time, even if several parts of the power system operate at very far modes or bandwidths such as in the case of DC microgrids. This method is an advanced strategy for simulating large distribution systems in unbalanced conditions; covering the basic needs for the implementation of multiscale grid dynamics.
