Steady-State Stand-Alone Power Flow Solvers for Integrated Transmission-Distribution Networks: A Comparison Study and Numerical Assessment

This paper compares and assesses several numerical methods that solve the steady-state power flow problem on integrated transmission-distribution networks. The integrated network model consists of a balanced transmission and an unbalanced distribution network. It is important to analyze these integrated electrical power systems due to the...

Solving the Steady-State Power Flow Problem on Integrated Transmission-Distribution Networks: A Comparison of Numerical Methods

Steady-state power flow models are essential for daily operation of the electricity grid. The changing electrical environment requires a shift from separated power flow models to integrated transmission-distribution power flow models. Integrated models incorporate the coupling of the networks and the interaction that they have on each other,...
