| Summary: | The optimal operation model of AC/DC distribution network with energy router (ER) is essentially a nonconvex nonlinear programming (NLP) problem. In order to improve the feasibility of solving the model, a convex approximation algorithm is proposed in this work. The steady-state model of ER is developed with considering the loss characteristics and multiport coordinated control strategy. It is embedded in the optimization formulations of AC/DC network as basic operating equations. Then, using second-order cone relaxation technology, the power flow equations of AC and DC distribution networks are convexly relaxed. On this basis, the highly nonlinear operating model of ER is linearized by introducing a successive approximation approach. Therefore, the original NLP problem is transformed into the convex programming problem and the solution efficiency is improved. Meanwhile, an iterative solution algorithm is developed to ensure the accuracy of the convex approximation approach. Simulation results verify the feasibility and efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
