• A weak bus identification index is derived to identify the critical bus when power flow is unsolvable. • An extended system considering new bus type is proposed to improve power flow solvability. • A weak bus identification and bus type switching based framework is established to provide adjustment measures efficiently and automatically. • The method could provide a suitable solution automatically for unsolvable power flow in a variety of scenarios, retains stable convergence and has potential in large-scale power grids. The power flow solvability is greatly challenged by the growing pressure on power grid induced by the rapid development of economy. The approaches of restoring power flow solvability should be profoundly studied. Most of adopted power flow adjustment methods are based on manual interference which require extensive human resources with inefficiency. Thus, a power flow adjustment strategy based on a weak bus identification and a new bus type conversion is proposed. A weak bus identification index is defined and expressed when power flow has no solution. We propose a novel bus type and a concept of the power shortage to restore power flow solvability. The generator action set is determined by calculating the left eigenvector of the Jacobian matrix. At last, we establish a linear programming model to determine the generator output adjustment. Numerical results are obtained in 3 test systems and an actual system in China. Compared with other methods, the proposed method is verified to have a higher success rate of restoring power flow solvability and has robustness in various scenarios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
