feat: use transmission line physical parameters to calculate impedances and ratings for HIFLD grid by danielolsen · Pull Request #276 · Breakthrough-Energy/PreREISE

danielolsen · 2022-03-10T00:57:22Z

Purpose

To build branch ratings and impedances for the HIFLD grid, use assumptions which start with the physical parameters of typical line designs (with non-typical overrides as necessary), rather than relying on processed averages from the TAMU grid.

What the code is doing

We add a table of 'typical' tower/conductor designs (line_designs.csv). Within transmission.py, the default choice for a given voltage level is the single-circuit design with the minimum number of conductors per bundle.
Within const.py:
- we add the system power base that will be used to calculate per-unit values (s_base).
- we make a change to the impedance of 161/500 kV transformers. The existing value produces severe transmission infeasibilities, while the new value fixes them (and is consistent with examination of real world data). EDIT: removed for now in favor of more extensive transformer re-working within refactor: update values and logic for representative transformer designs #286.
- we add a new mapping of lines to voltage (line_voltage_assumptions), to be used to override the algorithms within transmission.py when problems are encountered.
- we add a set of assumptions about lines which should be built using the non-default line designs.
Within transmission.py:
- We apply the line voltage assumptions from const.py before performing the neighbor search algorithm to assign voltage to unknown-voltage lines.
- We add a new function add_impedance_and_rating which builds Tower objects for each of the designs in line_designs.csv, and associates each transmission line in the HIFLD dataset with one of these designs (using either the default or the overrides in const.py) before passing this augmented dataframe (original data plus Tower designs) to the existing lower-level estimate_branch_impedance and estimate_branch_rating functions.
- We modify the estimate_branch_impedance and estimate_branch_rating functions to use the Tower objects plus the line lengths to calculate the appropriate values for transmission lines (transformer logic is unchanged).
EDIT: within test_transmission.py: several new tests aimed at improving the overall test coverage of the transmission module.

Testing

Tested manually to build the HIFLD grid. Preliminary tests show the built grid having much less transmission violation energy and many fewer lines violating, compared to when the grid is built using the assumed values from the TAMU data. Full results to be added later.

~~Unit tests still need to be updated.~~ EDIT: done.

Usage Example/Visuals

All code changes will be used by calling the build_transmission function (either directly or via create_csvs or create_grid in the orchestration module).

Time estimate

30 minutes to an hour, provided they already have a good understanding of the line parameter calculation logic, or are willing to trust the previous reviews of that code (#272). ~~This branch depends on #272, so is a draft for now.~~

With #272 merged and tests updated, this branch is now ready for a full review.

This is novelty in grid building.

Should we mention the data source somewhere and/or do we need to do data-intake for this?

These are self-created, based on compiling a variety of sources and rough assumptions, so I don't think we need to go through the data intake process. I'm going to write more about this in the paper describing our process. Do you think we need more documentation in the repo itself?

Sounds good. We will definitely put some paragraphs from the paper into the readme of the repo later and reference the paper for sure.

Thanks for adding those tests!
