文摘With the integration of distributed generation and the construction of cross-regional long-distance power grids, power systems become larger and more complex.They require faster computing speed and better scalability for power flow calculations to support unit dispatch.Based on the analysis of a variety of parallelization methods, this paper deploys the large-scale power flow calculation task on a cloud computing platform using resilient distributed datasets(RDDs).It optimizes a directed acyclic graph that is stored in the RDDs to solve the low performance problem of the MapReduce model.This paper constructs and simulates a power flow calculation on a large-scale power system based on standard IEEE test data.Experiments are conducted on Spark cluster which is deployed as a cloud computing platform.They show that the advantages of this method are not obvious at small scale, but the performance is superior to the stand-alone model and the MapReduce model for large-scale calculations.In addition, running time will be reduced when adding cluster nodes.Although not tested under practical conditions, this paper provides a new way of thinking about parallel power flow calculations in large-scale power systems.
