Summary

Phase-coordinated launch timing cut simulated 0.2-to-2-hertz mean-square power fluctuation by 74.39 percent with 2.188 seconds of average delay.

A model-predictive controller offsets independent training-job starts so their periodic power swings cancel instead of stacking. In numerical results, it reduced mean-square fluctuation in the 0.2-to-2-hertz band by 74.39 percent and power standard deviation by 46.6 percent, while meeting launch deadlines. The evidence is simulated and does not measure a production grid.

Why it matters

Phase-coordinated launch timing cut simulated 0.2-to-2-hertz mean-square power fluctuation by 74.39 percent with 2.188 seconds of average delay.

Limits and context

  • The evidence is simulated and does not measure a production grid.
