• rail transportation power system

This paper adds some new contributions to the unified alternating current/direct current (ac/dc) power-flow method that is applied to railway power supply systems. These contributions are mainly focused on the way that the unified power-flow problem is implemented. The authors propose a new technique based on graph theory to model the motion of the trains without varying the system topology and dimensions, as well as the solution vector. Furthermore, a new matrix formulation is developed to provide an easy way of setting out the problem. The combination of these techniques makes the unified ac/dc power flow easier to implement, and the comparison among different instants can directly be done, representing the major contribution of this paper. Finally, as a minor contribution, a new technique based on previous matrix formulation is developed to easily obtain all active and reactive power magnitudes in compact form.
