Power Flow Analysis
• We know
– The system topology (the circuit diagram)
– The impedance of each line
– The load at each load bus (S = P + jQ)
– The capability of each generator (P, V)
• We want to know
– The output of each generator (S)
– The voltage at each bus (V = V)
– The power flow on each line (Pflow)

Power Flow Analysis
• Data needs?
• Uses?
6
Real Power Flow Equations
• How many equations and how many
unknowns?
• Numerical methods
– Lack of convergence
– Slack bus
• Definition
• Mathematical and physical role
7
Running a Power Flow Program
• Programs created in the days of
FORTRAN programming
• Input data one of two standard formats
– IEEE
– PTI
• Output data format designed by the
programmer
• ** Cases may or may not converge! **

Running a Power Flow Program
• We will use two popular programs
– MATPower
• tabular data input and output
• relatively easy to use
– PowerWorld
• visual
• more difficult to use
• Terminology
– One-line diagrams
– per unit system (normalize all values)
