The document discusses power flow studies using the Newton-Raphson Load Flow (NRLF) method. NRLF is an iterative technique that starts with an initial guess for bus voltages and angles, then uses the Jacobian and Taylor series expansion to calculate updated values at each iteration. It repeats until voltages and angles converge within a specified tolerance. The student is asked to perform one iteration of NRLF on a 7 bus system and check for effects of different factors like Q limit violations on the convergence.

STUDIES
• In these sessions, you would perform
Steady State analysis of Power System using Newton-Raphson Load Flow and Fast Decoupled Load Flow.
• Use ref. books for detailed algorithms for
these studies. • Newton-Raphson is an iterative method for solving non-linear problems. • It starts with an intial guess and then makes use of the Taylor series expansion and the approximation for the solution by the first order gradient (derivative). 𝑓ሺ𝑥 ሻ = 𝑐 2 𝛻 𝑓 2 𝑓ሺ𝑥 + 𝛥𝑥ሻ = 𝑓ሺ𝑥 ሻ+ ∇𝑓Δ𝑥 + 𝑘 𝑘 Δ𝑥 + ⋯ = 𝑐 2!
• Neglecting the higher order terms we get
Δ𝑥 = ∇𝑓 −1 [𝑐 − 𝑓ሺ𝑥 𝑘 ሻ] • This being an iterative scheme;
• The process is repeated till convergence
criteria is met. • Generally the first order gradient is called the Jacobian.
• The convergence criteria is generally
– max(abs(delta x)) < a specified tolerance – max(abs(mismatch)) < a specified tolerance • In Power Flow context, we have P and Q equations to be solved for Bus Voltage and Angle (Polar co-ordinates).
• For Voltage dependent Q limits, • The Voltage dependent Q limits are to be handled on lines similar – Normal Q limits when not violated. – Voltage dependent load when violated.
• For the 7 bus system, perform one iteration
for NRLF. The one iteration in NRLF involves computation of Jacobian and the updated bus voltages and angles for that iteration. • Compare the results with those with the program executions. Extra Studies: • Check the effect of the following on convergence: – PV bus Q limit violations, – Load increase, – line R/X ratio(series comp), – Gen rescheduling (loads fixed), – PV bus voltage changes, – addition/removal of voltage control at a bus. – Effect of change in slack bus position. • Voltage dependent Q limits for IEEE 14 bus system.
