Formation of dynamic distribution network using connection-element

A novel method of connection-element is proposed to form dynamic distribution network under different constraint conditions. The method operates by joint use of network derivation and dynamic evaluation. Feasible distribution network is obtained by drawing an inference from the connection-element variable which is defined to integrate all important boundary conditions. Then a dynamic evaluation system is established to achieve the optimal network since there may be more than one available network obtained in the step of network derivation. Compared with the traditional approaches, our method is able to avoid the inherent drawback of existing connection modes and insure the dynamic selection of distribution network under certain focus. Results of example analysis have illustrated that the approach of connection-element is feasible both in theory and actual distribution network planning.
