Determination of Available Transfer Capability by Combined Method of Newton-Raphson-Seydel and Holomorphic Load Flow with Improved Matrix Calculations

This paper first demonstrates that high direct current lines will undoubtedly be the backbone of the future transmission network. The Newton Raphson Seydel alternating load flow equations are then combined with the direct current line equations. This paper employed matrix techniques to increase the speed of solving problems as the dimensions of the equations get larger. Furthermore, the holomorphic load flow does not require an initial estimate to run the load flow, and if a solution exists, the precise answer is calculated. The initial guess of Newton Raphson Seydel was calculated using this approach. In this paper, we describe a novel approach that can compute the available transfer capability in small and large networks with sufficient accuracy and speed by combining these methods. The simulation in this paper uses five networks: 39 IEEE buses, 118 IEEE buses, 300 IEEE buses, 145 Iowa state buses, and 1153 East Iran buses network. In addition, four approaches were employed for comparison: continuous power flow, the general minimum residual method, Newton Raphson Seydel classical method, and the standard holomorphic power flow method. The results of the simulations suggest that the proposed strategy is acceptable.
