Load Flow Analysis: Newway Academy

Load flow analysis is used to numerically solve power systems by computing steady-state voltages, phase angles, and real and reactive powers flowing through the network. It helps with designing substations, cable selection, transmission line analysis, insulator selection, and protection device selection. There are different load flow techniques like the Gauss-Seidel method, Newton-Raphson method, and fast decoupled method which are classified based on iterations and convergence speed. The types of buses are load buses which specify real and reactive power, generator buses which specify real power and voltage, and slack/reference buses which specify voltage and phase angle.

Load flow analysis

NewWay Academy
Load Flow
• Used to provide numerical solution for the power system
• Used to compute steady-state voltages and phase angles.
• Used to compute real and reactive powers flowing the
entire network.
• Helps in:
1. Designing Substations.
2. Cable Selection.
3. Transmission lines analysis
4. Insulators.
5. Protection devices such as Circuit breakers,
fuses and etc.
Load Flow Techniques
• Guess Seidel method.
• Newton Raphson method.
• Fast decoupled method.

All these techniques are classified according to


number of iterations computed and how fast the
system can converge to the solution
Types Of Buses
• Load Bus Or PQ bus:
We know the exact values of active power ”P”
and reactive power “Q” absorbed by the bus, but
Voltage magnitude and phase angle are missing.

• Generator Bus Or PV bus:


We know the exact values of active power ”P”
and Voltage magnitude “V” of the bus, but
reactive power “Q” and phase angle are missing.
Types Of Buses
• Slack bus, Swing bus, Reference bus Or Infinite
bus:
We know the exact values of Voltage magnitude
“V” and phase angle of the bus, but values of
active power ”P” and reactive power “Q”
absorbed by are missing.
