Differentiable Power-Flow Optimization

  • 将传统牛顿-拉夫逊法重构成可微分仿真,支持端到端参数优化。
  • 在GPU上实现加速,处理时间序列与批量故障分析效率显著提升。
  • 适合电网动态分析、故障筛查等场景,兼具速度与物理一致性。

随着可再生能源的广泛应用及其发电波动性加剧,电网管理日益复杂且计算负担沉重。传统的交流潮流计算(基于牛顿-拉夫逊方法)存在扩展性差的问题,难以满足联合输电-配电建模和全局电网分析等新兴需求。而纯数据驱动的代理模型缺乏物理约束保障,可能违反基本物理规律。本文提出可微分潮流(DPF),将交流潮流问题重新表述为可微分仿真,实现从物理功率失配到底层仿真参数的端到端梯度传播,从而通过梯度优化高效识别参数。DPF利用现代机器学习框架(如PyTorch)中的GPU加速、稀疏张量表示和批处理能力,提供了一种可扩展替代方案。其特别适用于时间序列分析(复用历史解)、N-1故障分析(批量处理)以及快速筛查(速度快、支持提前终止)。代码已在作者仓库公开。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

With the rise of renewable energy sources and their high variability in generation, the management of power grids becomes increasingly complex and computationally demanding. Conventional AC-power-flow simulations, which use the Newton-Raphson (NR) method, suffer from poor scalability, making them impractical for emerging use cases such as joint transmission-distribution modeling and global grid analysis. At the same time, purely data-driven surrogate models lack physical guarantees and may violate fundamental constraints. In this work, we propose Differentiable Power-Flow (DPF), a reformulation of the AC power-flow problem as a differentiable simulation. DPF enables end-to-end gradient propagation from the physical power mismatches to the underlying simulation parameters, thereby allowing these parameters to be identified efficiently using gradient-based optimization. We demonstrate that DPF provides a scalable alternative to NR by leveraging GPU acceleration, sparse tensor representations, and batching capabilities available in modern machine-learning frameworks such as PyTorch. DPF is especially suited as a tool for time-series analyses due to its efficient reuse of previous solutions, for N-1 contingency-analyses due to its ability to process cases in batches, and as a screening tool by leveraging its speed and early stopping capability. The code is available in the authors' code repository.
