Load flow computations in hybrid transmission - distributed power systems

We interconnect transmission and distribution power systems and perform load flow computations in the hybrid network. In the largest example we managed to build, fifty copies of a distribution network consisting of fifteen nodes is connected to the UCTE study model, resulting in a system consisting of 5003 nodes. For this model, the Newton load flow model converges in seven iterations. Future work in this direction should allow to build even larger networks.Delft Institute of Applied MathematicsElectrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Scienc
