Abstract
The important implication of complex-variable
Newton-Raphson load flow analysis is that reduction in
memory access is achieved by the complex-variable Newton-
Raphson method. This significant reduction in memory access
achieved will lead to the advantage of substantial reduction in
computing time which will increase the efficiency. In addition
complex-variables offer a flexible and direct approach for
modelling of UPFC. This paper develops a Newton-Raphson
load flow analysis formulation which includes UPFC. A brief
analysis on load flow calculation methods and UPFC is
presented. Proposed system is simulated for IEEE 30 BUS
system using Mi-Power software.
