Lance,
Can you attend this conference? Vince ---------------------- Forwarded by Vince J Kaminski/HOU/ECT on 11/06/2000= =20 01:09 PM --------------------------- "Dennis Ray" <djray@engr.wisc.edu< on 11/06/2000 12:48:08 PM To: <vkamins@enron.com< cc: =20 Subject: Invitation Dear Mr. Kaminski: ? Shmuel Oren indicated that you said that you were interested in learning mo= re=20 about the Power Systems Engineering Research Center=01,s upcoming Industria= l=20 Advisory Board meeting. Thanks for your interest.=20 ? Attached is file that describes the meeting=01,s objectives, agenda and=20 attendees. It will be a very stimulating meeting given the mix of academic= =20 and industry attendees. We=01,re looking forward to the attendance by peopl= e=20 from several ISO=01,s around the country as well =01) a new addition to our= =20 attendee list. ? I hope you will consider joining us. If you=01,d like more information abou= t=20 PSERC, you can find it on the web at www.pserc.wisc.edu. We=01,ll also be= =20 sending you some information. ? By the way, you might be interested in an internet seminar we=01,re running= =20 tomorrow. The information is given below. It=01,s free except for the cost = of=20 learning how to use NetMeeting if you=01,ve not already been using it. ? Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. ? Regards, ? Dennis Ray Executive Director 608-265-3808 ? ? PSerc Internet Seminar November 7, 2000 ? Time 1.10-2.00 PM Central Time (connection can be checked at 1.00) ? Efficient Available Transfer Capability Analysis using Linear Methods Jamie Weber PowerWorld Corporation 2004 S. Wright St, Suite 102, Urbana, IL? 61801 weber@powerworld.com ? Abstract ? While the concept of ATC has been around for decades, the desire to calculate its value on a large scale is new.? Organizations responsible for the reliable operation of the transmission system are given the task of determining ATC values on a daily basis.? ATC calculations typically includ= e a large number of contingencies as well as multiple transfer directions and multiple system conditions.? This presents a labor-intensive task for those required to calculate ATC values. ? Because of these circumstances, Powerworld Corporation was approached by th= e Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) to develop a new software product for their use in calculating ATC values.? The new ATC tool, integrated into the Simulator OPF/ATC software product, was the culmination of this work.? This talk will cover the basic engineering requirements and mathematics that governed the development of the ATC tool.? The concept of Linear ATC analysis will be introduced, along with the underlying mathematics of Linea= r ATC analysis including ? *? Power Transfer Distribution Factors (PTDFs) *? Line Outage and Closure Distribution Factors (LODFs/LCDFs) *? Outage Transfer Distribution Factors (OTDFs) ? Attention will be paid to demonstrating the accuracy of Linear ATC on large systems as well as demonstrating what Linear ATC does not model.? Examples will be shown on both small and large-scale systems using Simulator OPF/ATC= . ? Other special topics integrated into PowerWorld Simulator OPF/ATC will also be discussed such as (1) the inclusion of phase-shifting transformers directly in linear analysis, and (2) the iteration of linear ATC for use in modeling controller changes. ? ? Instructions for Audio Connection ? Dail in #:??? (505) 242-2420? you will then be prompted to enter the participant code.? At that time punch in the number below. ? Participant code:?? 193953 ? ? IP Address for Netmeeting ? Read the instructions to down load and install Netmeeting.? At about 12.50 PM Central Time on November 7, 2000, dial the following IP address in Netmeeting?? 128.174.115.8.? Please make sure the resolution on your machin= e is set to 1024 x 768 .? This will be the setting on the machine at which th= e Power Point slides originate.? If your machine is not set to the same resolution, the slides on your machine during the seminar will lose information. ? Jamie Weber was born in Platteville, Wisconsin, on June 13, 1973.? He received his B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Wisconsin - Platteville in May 1995 and his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in electrical engineering from the University of Illinois in January 1997 and October 1999.? He has worked part-time as a software developer at PowerWorl= d ? Corporation since the company's inception in 1996, and has been employed full-time at PowerWorld Corporation since February 1999.? His primary dutie= s include software development, consulting activities, and software training. His research interests include power systems, economics, and computer visualization. - Invitation.doc
