Graph Embedding Dynamic Feature-based Supervised Contrastive Learning of Transient Stability for Changing Power Grid Topologies

Accurate online transient stability prediction is critical for ensuring power system stability when facing disturbances. While traditional transient stablity analysis replies on the time domain simulations can not be quickly adapted to the power grid toplogy change. In order to vectorize high-dimensional power grid topological structure information into low-dimensional node-based graph embedding streaming data, graph embedding dynamic feature (GEDF) has been proposed. The transient stability GEDF-based supervised contrastive learning (GEDF-SCL) model uses supervised contrastive learning to predict transient stability with GEDFs, considering power grid topology information. To evaluate the performance of the proposed GEDF-SCL model, power grids of varying topologies were generated based on the IEEE 39-bus system model. Transient operational data was obtained by simulating N-1 and N-$\bm{m}$-1 contingencies on these generated power system topologies. Test result demonstrated that the GEDF-SCL model can achieve high accuracy in transient stability prediction and adapt well to changing power grid topologies.

Transferable Deep Learning Power System Short-Term Voltage Stability Assessment with Physics-Informed Topological Feature Engineering

Deep learning (DL) algorithms have been widely applied to short-term voltage stability (STVS) assessment in power systems. However, transferring the knowledge learned in one power grid to other power grids with topology changes is still a challenging task. This paper proposed a transferable DL-based model for STVS assessment by constructing the topology-aware voltage dynamic features from raw PMU data. Since the reactive power flow and grid topology are essential to voltage stability, the topology-aware and physics-informed voltage dynamic features are utilized to effectively represent the topological and temporal patterns from post-disturbance system dynamic trajectories. The proposed DL-based STVS assessment model is tested under random operating conditions on the New England 39-bus system. It has 99.99\% classification accuracy of the short-term voltage stability status using the topology-aware and physics-informed voltage dynamic features. In addition to high accuracy, the experiments show good adaptability to PMU errors. Moreover, The proposed STVS assessment method has outstanding performance on new grid topologies after fine-tuning. In particular, the highest accuracy reaches 99.68\% in evaluation, which demonstrates a good knowledge transfer ability of the proposed model for power grid topology change.
