Combined transmission and distribution systems (CoTDS) simulation for power systems requires development of algorithms and software that are numerically stable and at the same time accurately simulate dynamic events that can occur in practical systems. The time scales of simulation can be orders of magnitude apart making the combined simulation extremely challenging. This has led to increased research in applying co-simulation techniques for integrated simulation of the two systems. In this paper, two methods for dynamic co-simulation of CoTDS are proposed using parallel and series computation of the transmission system and distribution systems. The convergence of numerical methods in co-simulation is addressed from a fundamental mathematical perspective and the impact of the integration time-step is studied on proposed CoTDS dynamic co-simulation methods. Both these co-simulation methods are validated against total system simulation in a single time-domain simulation environment. The proposed CoTDS co-simulation method is also validated against commercial EMTP dynamic simulation. CoTDS dynamic co-simulation is further demonstrated on a New England 39-bus transmission system with ten load buses replaced by distribution systems including a 5780-node distribution system on one load bus for a detailed fault-induced delayed voltage recovery simulation study.
