Abstract

This paper investigates the relationship between the impedance matching and the maximum power transfer problems, and presents a predictor–corrector framework for fast estimation of the maximum power transfer limit for the load increase pattern with a common scaling factor. First, a network equivalent technique is presented and a “decoupled” equivalent network is obtained for every load bus. Second, a special form of impedance matching condition is derived for the maximum power transfer problem with an unlimited load variation pattern. Though this is an unrealistic case in power systems, it might have a profound physical mechanism and lead to an interesting explanation and application for the presented equivalent technique. Third, this paper discusses the relationship between the impedance matching and the maximum power transfer problem for the load increase pattern with a common scaling factor. Finally, a predictor–corrector framework is introduced for fast estimation of the maximum power transfer limit for the load increase pattern with a common scaling factor.
