Resumen:The increasing frequency of extreme high-temperature events has led to deteriorating thermal stability in power transmission lines and accelerated life of transformers. Conventional unit commitment (UC) employs static line rating (SLR) and neglects transformer lifetime degradation, posing hidden risks to system security in high-temperature and heavy-load scenarios. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a dispatch method that incorporates dynamic line rating (DLR) and transformer life loss under extreme high-temperature conditions. First, the conductor temperature-rise mechanism is formulated using the thermal balance theory, upon which a temperature-dependent DLR calculation model is developed. Second, the coupling relationship between transformer hot-spot temperature, load ratio, and ambient temperature is quantified, and an ambient temperature-driven transformer life cost function is formulated using linear damage accumulation theory. Finally, a unit commitment (UC) optimization model is established to minimize unit generation costs, transformer lifetime loss costs, and wind curtailment penalties costs, while satisfying power balance, transmission capacity, and other operational constraints. Simulation results on the IEEE 39-bus system demonstrate that, compared to conventional models, the proposed method improves transmission capacity utilization in high-temperature conditions by 12%, reduces transformer life loss costs by 69%, and lowers total operating costs by 4.9%.
