Load Flow Analysis

 Load Flow Analysis is essential for:


 - Planning and operation of power systems
 - Calculating voltage, power flows, and losses
 - Assessing system performance under different scenarios
Bus Classification

 Buses in a power system are classified as:


 1. Slack Bus: Provides balance of real and reactive power
 2. PV Bus (Generator Bus): Voltage magnitude and real power are
specified
 3. PQ Bus (Load Bus): Real and reactive power are specified
Advantages of Load Flow
Analysis

 Determining steady-state operating conditions


 Identifying over- and under-load conditions
 Estimating line losses
 Improving power system security and capacity
 Providing a fundamental analysis technique
Disadvantages of Load Flow
Analysis

 Complexity
 Sensitivity to initial conditions
 Limited accuracy
 Time-consuming
 Difficulty in handling distributed generation
Gauss-Seidel (GS) Method

 Features:
 - Iterative method for solving power flow equations
 - Relies on initial guesses of bus voltages
 - Simple to implement but may converge slowly for large systems

 Steps:
 1. Initialize bus voltages
 2. Update voltages iteratively using the power balance equations
 3. Repeat until convergence criteria are met
Newton-Raphson (NR) Method
 Features:
 - Iterative method with quadratic convergence
 - More computationally efficient than GS for large systems

 Steps:
 1. Formulate power flow equations and Jacobian matrix
 2. Solve linear equations to find corrections
 3. Update bus voltages and repeat until convergence
Approximate NR Decoupled
Method

 Features:
 - Simplifies the NR method by decoupling active and reactive power
equations
 - Reduces computational complexity

 Steps:
 1. Assume weak coupling between P-δ and Q-V
 2. Solve decoupled equations iteratively
 3. Update results and repeat until convergence
