This document provides an overview of load flow analysis and power flow solution techniques, specifically the Gauss-Seidel and Newton-Raphson methods. It begins with an example Gauss-Seidel power flow calculation for a two bus system. It then discusses the inclusion of PV generator buses in the Gauss-Seidel iteration and accelerated Gauss-Seidel convergence. The document concludes by introducing the Newton-Raphson power flow algorithm and comparing the advantages and disadvantages of Gauss-Seidel versus Newton-Raphson.
Load flow solution is the solution of the network under steady state conditions subjected to certain inequality constraints under which the system operates.

DISTRIBUTION LOAD FLOW ANALYSIS FOR RDIAL & MESH DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMIAEME Publication
Power flow analysis is the backbone of power system analysis and design. They are necessary for planning, operation, economic scheduling and exchange of power between utilities. Power flow analysis is required for many other analyses such as transient stability, optimal power flow and contingency studies. The principal information of power flow analysis is to find the magnitude and phase angle of voltage at each bus and the real and reactive power flowing in each transmission lines. Power flow analysis is an importance tool involving numerical analysis applied to a power system. In this analysis, iterative techniques are used due to there no known analytical method to solve the problem. This resulted nonlinear set of equations or called power flow equations are generated.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.

Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure.

Photo source: Peoria Journal Star
Several years ago, a 140 foot,
6.5 ton blade broke off from a
Suzlon Energy wind turbine.
The wind turbine is located
in Illinois. Suzlon Energy is
one of the world’s largest
wind turbine manufacturers;
its shares fell 39% following
the accident. No one was hurt
and wind turbines failures
are extremely rare events.
(Vestas and Siemens turbines
have also failed.) 2

•Also, there is a 25 MVAr capacitor at bus 2.

9. Slack Bus
In this example we specified S2 and V1 and then
solved for S1 and V2.
We can not arbitrarily specify S at all buses
because total generation must equal total load +
total losses: “real and reactive power balance.”
In addition, we also need an angle reference bus.
To solve these problems we define one bus as
the “slack” bus to deal with both issues:
Slack bus has a fixed voltage magnitude and angle,
and a varying real/reactive power injection to satisfy
overall real and reactive power balance.
In the example, this was bus 1. 9

12. Three Types of Power Flow Buses
There are three main types of buses:
– Load (PQ), at which P and Q are fixed; goal is to
solve for unknown voltage magnitude and angle at
the bus (some generators can be PQ buses too).
– Slack at which the voltage magnitude and angle are
fixed; iteration solves for unknown P and Q
injections at the slack bus, with fixed |V| and angle.
– Generator (PV) at which P and |V| are fixed;
iteration solves for unknown voltage angle and Q
injection at bus:
special coding is needed to include PV buses in the
Gauss-Seidel iteration. 12

17. Generator Reactive Power Limits
The reactive power output of generators
varies to maintain the terminal voltage; on a
real generator this is done by the exciter.
To maintain higher voltages requires more
reactive power.
Generators have reactive power limits,
which are dependent upon the generator's
MW output.
These limits must be considered during the
power flow solution. 17
18. Generator Reactive Limits, cont'd
During power flow once a solution is
obtained, need to check if the generator
reactive power output is within its limits
If the reactive power is outside of the limits,
then fix Q at the max or min value, and re-
solve treating the generator as a PQ bus
– this is know as "type-switching"
– also need to check if a PQ generator can again
regulate
Rule of thumb: to raise system voltage we
need to supply more VArs. 18

21. Gauss-Seidel Advantages
Each iteration is relatively fast (computational
order is proportional to number of branches +
number of buses in the system).
Relatively easy to program.
21
22. Gauss-Seidel Disadvantages
Tends to converge relatively slowly, although
this can be improved with acceleration.
Has tendency to fail to find solutions,
particularly on large systems.
Tends to diverge on cases with negative
branch reactances (common with
compensated lines).
Need to program using complex numbers.
Gauss and Gauss-Seidel mostly replaced by
Newton-Raphson. 22

29. Newton-Raphson Comments
• When close to the solution the error
decreases quite quickly -- method has what is
known as “quadratic” convergence:
– number of correct significant figures roughly
doubles at each iteration.
• f(x(v)) is known as the “mismatch,” which we
would like to drive to zero.
• Stopping criteria is when f(x(v)) <
29
30. Newton-Raphson Comments
• Results are dependent upon the initial guess.
What if we had guessed x(0) = 0, or x(0) = -1?
• A solution’s region of attraction (ROA) is the
set of initial guesses that converge to the
particular solution.
• The ROA is often hard to determine.
