  • The increasing penetration of distributed Photovoltaic (PV) systems necessitates computationally efficient modeling and solution methods for dynamic analysis of distribution systems. However, the current state-of-the-art dynamic models of PV systems are computationally burdensome. Therefore, this paper adopts recent advancements in phasor-based model to represent Volt/VAr and Volt/Watt dynamics of the PV systems, and implements a Backward Euler and Newton-Raphson based approach to solve the phasor-based dynamic model. In the developed solution approach, the inverter dynamic model involving differential and algebraic equations (DAEs) are discretized using the Backward Euler method, which results in a set of non-linear equations. Then, the classic Newton-Raphson method is utilized to solve the non-linear set of equations. Extensive numerical case studies demonstrate that the effectiveness of the proposed solution approach over the existing off-the-shelf solver. Case studies also show that the proposed approach is at least nine times faster in solving the PV dynamics than the off-the-shelf solver in a regular computing machine.
