Virginia Tech

A comparison of digital methods applied to power flow studies

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Four power flow algorithms were developed, and qualitative and quantitative comparisons were given in terms of solution time required, computer storage necessary, convergence characteristics, and ease of programming and program modification. Sparsity techniques were outlined, and a suggestion of the effects of these techniques on the four algorithms was included. An outline was given of criterion that must be considered before selecting a power flow algorithm.
