Abstract
As the utilization of power electronic-based components in power systems continues to grow, a comprehensive understanding of their dynamics becomes increasingly important for system design, control and protection analysis. To meet practical needs, the high-fidelity but time-consuming electromagnetic transient (EMT) simulations are often required. To improve the performance of these simulations, a highly efficient splitting state-space method with numerical error control is proposed that reduces the computation workload. The method employs a generic decoupling principle to split the state-space equations of the converter-integrated power system and introduces the exponential splitting formulas of multiple orders accuracy to solve and then compose the splitting state-space equations. The decoupling principle is designed based on separation of time-varying portions of the state matrix, which is realized by locating the smallest subcircuit topology that is switch state-dependent, through automatic switch grouping and switch adjacent state variables (SASV) identification. A family of exponential splitting schemes is employed to accelerate the demanding matrix exponential calculation. The splitting state-space method undergoes comprehensive testing across various cases, including a distribution network with DC load, an LLC resonant converter, a large-scale wind farm, and an MMC circuit. The accuracy of the proposed method is thoroughly evaluated, and its efficiency is validated.
