| In [[power engineering]], the '''power-flow study''', also known as '''load-flow study''', is an important tool involving [[numerical analysis]] applied to a power system. A power-flow study usually uses simplified notation such as a [[one-line diagram]] and [[per-unit system]], and focuses on various forms of [[AC power]] (i.e.: voltages, voltage angles, real power and reactive power). It analyzes the power systems in normal steady-state operation. A number of software implementations of power-flow studies exist.

| In addition to a power-flow study, sometimes called the ''base case'', many software implementations perform other types of analysis, such as [[short-circuit]] fault analysis, stability studies (transient & steady-state), unit commitment and [[economic dispatch]].<ref>{{cite doi|10.1109/IREP.2013.6629391}}</ref> In particular, some programs use [[linear programming]] to find the ''optimal power flow'', the conditions which give the lowest cost per [[kilowatt hour]] delivered.

| Power-flow or load-flow studies are important for planning future expansion of power systems as well as in determining the best operation of existing systems. The principal information obtained from the power-flow study is the magnitude and phase angle of the voltage at each [[busbar|bus]], and the real and reactive power flowing in each line.
| |
| | |
| Commercial power systems are usually too large to allow for hand solution of the power flow. Special purpose [[Network analyzer (AC power)|network analyzers]] were built between 1929 and the early 1960s to provide laboratory models of power systems; large-scale digital computers replaced the analog methods.
| |
| | |
| ==Model==
| |
| An ''AC power-flow model'' is a model used in electrical engineering to analyze [[power grids]]. It provides a [[Nonlinear#Nonlinear systems|nonlinear system]] which describes the energy flow through each transmission line.
| |
| Due to nonlinearity, in many cases the analysis of large network via AC power-flow model is not feasible, and a linear (but less accurate) DC power-flow model is used instead. Both of those models are very crude approximations to reality.
| |
| | |
| ==Power-flow problem formulation==
| |
| The goal of a power-flow study is to obtain complete voltage angle and magnitude information for each bus in a power system for specified load and generator real power and voltage conditions.<ref>{{cite book|first1=J. |last1=Grainger |first2= W.|last2= Stevenson|title=Power System Analysis|publisher= McGraw–Hill|location= New York|year=1994| isbn= 0-07-061293-5}}</ref> Once this information is known, real and reactive power flow on each branch as well as generator reactive power output can be analytically determined. Due to the nonlinear nature of this problem, numerical methods are employed to obtain a solution that is within an acceptable tolerance.
| |
| | |
| The solution to the power-flow problem begins with identifying the known and unknown variables in the system. The known and unknown variables are dependent on the type of bus. A bus without any generators connected to it is called a Load Bus. With one exception, a bus with at least one generator connected to it is called a Generator Bus. The exception is one arbitrarily-selected bus that has a generator. This bus is referred to as the [[slack bus]].
| |
| | |
| In the power-flow problem, it is assumed that the real power ''P''<sub>''D''</sub> and reactive power ''Q''<sub>''D''</sub> at each Load Bus are known. For this reason, Load Buses are also known as PQ Buses. For Generator Buses, it is assumed that the real power generated ''P<sub>G</sub>'' and the voltage magnitude |''V''| is known. For the Slack Bus, it is assumed that the voltage magnitude |''V''| and voltage phase ''Θ'' are known. Therefore, for each Load Bus, both the voltage magnitude and angle are unknown and must be solved for; for each Generator Bus, the voltage angle must be solved for; there are no variables that must be solved for the Slack Bus. In a system with ''N'' buses and ''R'' generators, there are then <math>2(N-1) - (R-1)</math> unknowns.
| |
| | |
| In order to solve for the <math>2(N-1) - (R-1)</math> unknowns, there must be <math>2(N-1) - (R-1)</math> equations that do not introduce any new unknown variables. The possible equations to use are power balance equations, which can be written for real and reactive power for each bus.
| |
| The real power balance equation is:
| |
| | |
| : <math>0 = -P_{i} + \sum_{k=1}^N |V_i||V_k|(G_{ik}\cos\theta_{ik}+B_{ik}\sin\theta_{ik})</math> | |
| | |
| where <math>P_{i}</math> is the net power injected at bus ''i'', <math>G_{ik}</math> is the real part of the element in the [[Ybus matrix|bus admittance matrix]] Y<sub>BUS</sub> corresponding to the ''i''th row and ''k''th column, <math>B_{ik}</math> is the imaginary part of the element in the Y<sub>BUS</sub> corresponding to the ''i''th row and ''k''th column and <math>\theta_{ik}</math> is the difference in voltage angle between the ''i''th and ''k''th buses (<math>\theta_{ik}=\delta_i-\delta_k</math>). The reactive power balance equation is:
| |
| | |
| : <math>0 = -Q_{i} + \sum_{k=1}^N |V_i||V_k|(G_{ik}\sin\theta_{ik}-B_{ik}\cos\theta_{ik})</math>
| |
| | |
| where <math>Q_i</math> is the net reactive power injected at bus ''i''.
| |
| | |
| Equations included are the real and reactive power balance equations for each Load Bus and the real power balance equation for each Generator Bus. Only the real power balance equation is written for a Generator Bus because the net reactive power injected is not assumed to be known and therefore including the reactive power balance equation would result in an additional unknown variable. For similar reasons, there are no equations written for the Slack Bus.
| |
| | |
| In many transmission systems, the voltage angles <math>\theta_{ik}</math> are usually relatively small. There is thus a strong coupling between real power and voltage angle, and between reactive power and voltage magnitude, while the coupling between real power and voltage magnitude, as well as reactive power and voltage angle, is weak. As a result, real power is usually transmitted from the bus with higher voltage angle to the bus with lower voltage angle, and reactive power is usually transmitted from the bus with higher voltage magnitude to the bus with lower voltage magnitude. However, this approximation does not hold when the voltage angle is very large.<ref>[http://www.eeh.ee.ethz.ch/uploads/tx_ethstudies/modelling_hs08_script_02.pdf Andersson, G: Lectures on Modelling and Analysis of Electric Power Systems]</ref>

| ==Newton–Raphson solution method==
| |
| There are several different methods of solving the resulting nonlinear system of equations. The most popular is known as the Newton–Raphson method. This method begins with initial guesses of all unknown variables (voltage magnitude and angles at Load Buses and voltage angles at Generator Buses). Next, a [[Taylor Series]] is written, with the higher order terms ignored, for each of the power balance equations included in the system of equations .
| |
| The result is a linear system of equations that can be expressed as:
| |
| | |
| : <math>\begin{bmatrix}\Delta \theta \\ \Delta |V|\end{bmatrix} = -J^{-1} \begin{bmatrix}\Delta P \\ \Delta Q \end{bmatrix} </math>
| |
| | |
| where <math>\Delta P</math> and <math>\Delta Q</math> are called the mismatch equations:
| |
| | |
| : <math>\Delta P_i = -P_i + \sum_{k=1}^N |V_i||V_k|(G_{ik}\cos\theta_{ik}+B_{ik}\sin \theta_{ik})</math> | |
| | |
| <math>\Delta Q_{i} = -Q_{i} + \sum_{k=1}^N |V_i||V_k|(G_{ik}\sin\theta_{ik}-B_{ik}\cos\theta_{ik})</math>
| |
| | |
| and <math>J</math> is a matrix of partial derivatives known as a [[Jacobian matrix and determinant|Jacobian]]:
| |
| <math>J=\begin{bmatrix} \dfrac{\partial \Delta P}{\partial\theta} & \dfrac{\partial \Delta P}{\partial |V|} \\ \dfrac{\partial \Delta Q}{\partial \theta}& \dfrac{\partial \Delta Q}{\partial |V|}\end{bmatrix}</math>.
| |
| | |
| The linearized system of equations is solved to determine the next guess (''m'' + 1) of voltage magnitude and angles based on:
| |
| | |
| : <math>\theta^{m+1} = \theta^m + \Delta \theta\,</math>
| |
| | |
| : <math>|V|^{m+1} = |V|^m + \Delta |V|\,</math>
| |
| | |
| The process continues until a stopping condition is met. A common stopping condition is to terminate if the [[Matrix norm|norm]] of the mismatch equations is below a specified tolerance.
| |
| | |
| A rough outline of solution of the power-flow problem is:
| |
| # Make an initial guess of all unknown voltage magnitudes and angles. It is common to use a "flat start" in which all voltage angles are set to zero and all voltage magnitudes are set to 1.0 p.u.
| |
| # Solve the power balance equations using the most recent voltage angle and magnitude values.
| |
| # Linearize the system around the most recent voltage angle and magnitude values
| |
| # Solve for the change in voltage angle and magnitude
| |
| # Update the voltage magnitude and angles
| |
| # Check the stopping conditions, if met then terminate, else go to step 2.

| ==Power-flow methods==
| |
| *[[Gauss–Seidel method]]: This is the earliest devised method. It shows slower rates of convergence compared to other iterative methods, but it uses very little memory and does not need to solve a matrix system.
| |
| *[[Newton–Raphson method]]: Most current methods are based on this. The convergence rate is typically fast, but it may sometimes fail because of the inherent problems of fractality in the basins of attraction of the underlying iterative map.
| |
| *[[Fast-decoupled-load-flow method]]: In the operations of a power system, it is important for personnel to have a high level of contingent information. The reason is that personnel need to know what power-flow changes will occur due to generator outages. The contingent information can also be used to anticipate future power disruptions in the power network. In this case fast decoupled load flow method is used as a common method to retrieve contingent information conveniently.
| |
| | |
| -Fast decoupled load flow method is a variation on Newton-Raphson that exploits the approximate decoupling of active and reactive flows in well-behaved power networks, and additionally fixes the value of the Jacobian during the iteration in order to avoid costly matrix decompositions. Also referred to as "fixed-slope, decoupled NR".
| |
| | |
| -It is achieved by only inverting the Jacobian matrix once within its algorithm. It also has 3 assumptions. Firstly, the conductance between the buses is zero. Secondly, the magnitude of the bus voltage is one per unit. Thirdly, the sine of phases between buses is zero, whereas the cosine of phases are 1. In reality the fast decoupled load flow can return the answer within seconds, whereas newton raphson methods takes much longer to return an answer.
| |
| | |
| *[[Holomorphic embedding load flow method]]: A recently developed method based on advanced techniques of complex analysis. It is direct and guarantees the calculation of the correct (operative) branch, out of the multiple solutions present in the power flow equations.
