Abstract

Load flow analysis is essential to know the detailed description of a complex power network. Load flow solutions provide the basic computational techniques in order to determine the voltages at various buses and the power flowing through the elements of the system. In this chapter, some basics of load flow analysis have been discussed along with N–R method and fast decoupled method of load flow analysis. These techniques are applied to the online/offline studies of multi-bus power networks using developed soft computing techniques.
