摘要
The use of probability distribution functions to describe reliability-worth input parameters is fairly new compared to using average values. Reliability-worth indices of power systems are frequently calculated as average values and convey little information about risk In this paper beta probability distribution function was used to model time-dependent customer interruption costs as an input parameter to reliability-worth analyses of power systems. Time-sequential Monte-Carlo simulation technique that can handle time dependence of the input parameters was employed in the analysis. The results revealed that more information can be derived from the reliability-worth indices when probability distributions are used to describe the reliability-worth input and output parameters.
