研究目的
To investigate the potential gains in dynamic rating compared to static rating for different network assets (transformers, overhead lines, and cables) and to inform the network operator of the potential DNR gains on an 11-kV network.
研究成果
The dynamic rating offers clear gains to network operators in terms of network loading in the winter months but may be lower than the static rating on hot sunny days. It is not necessary to monitor every asset within a network, and careful use of modeling can point toward monitoring those assets that offer the biggest constraints.
研究不足
The study is limited by the lack of wind direction measurement and the use of typical industrial values for distribution transformer models, which adds uncertainty into the calculation.
