Branch resistance
Branch inductive reactance
Branch capacitive susceptance
Ignore resistance, OK because it is much less than reactance.
Ignore susceptance, OK because its affect on MW flows very small.
Only model reactance, OK for getting branch flows.

Note:
We assume there are no
bus shunts in this system.
Bus shunts are capacitive
or inductive connections
between the bus and the
ground. Although most
systems have them, they
inject only reactive power
(no MW) and therefore
affect MW flows in the
network only very little.

Power system representation
Forming the Y-Bus:
1. The matrix is symmetric, i.e., Yij=Yji.
2. A diagonal element Yii is obtained as the sum of admittances for
all branches connected to bus i (yik is non-zero only when there
exists a physical connection between buses i and k).
3. The off-diagonal elements are the negative of the admittances
connecting buses i and j, i.e., Yij=-yji.

Power system representation
From the previous work, you can derive the power flow
equations.
These are equations expressing the real and reactive power
injections at each bus. If we had modeled branch resistance, we
would obtain:

This requires too much EE, so forget about them. Let’s make

 θk and θj are the angles of the
voltage phasors at each bus.
The angle captures the time
difference when voltage
phasors cross the zero-
voltage axis.
In the time domain
simulation, the red curve
crosses before the blue one
by an amount of time Δt
and so has an angle of θ=ωΔt
where ω=2πf and f is
frequency of oscillation, 60
Hz for power systems.
Power system representation
Simplifying assumptions:
1. No resistance: Yij=jBij
2. Angle differences across branches, are small: θi-θj:
• Sin(θi-θj)= θi-θj
• Cos(θi-θj)=1.0
3. All voltage magnitudes are 1.0 in the pu system.
21
This is the basis for the “DC power flow.”

But matlab indicates above matrix is singular which means it
does not have an inverse.
There is a dependency among the four equations, i.e., we can
add the bottom three rows and multiply by -1 to get the top
row.
This dependency occurs because all four angles are not
independent; we have to choose one of them as a reference with a
fixed value of 0 degrees.

How to solve power flow problems

Develop equations to compute branch flows:
 )( ADPB
where:
• PB is the vector of branch flows. It has dimension of M x 1.
Branches are ordered arbitrarily, but whatever order is chosen
must also be used in D and A.
• θ is (as before) the vector of nodal phase angles for buses 2,…N
• D is an M x M matrix having non-diagonal elements of zeros; the
diagonal element in position row k, column k contains the
negative of the susceptance of the kth branch.
• A is the M x N-1 node-arc incidence matrix. It is also called the
adjacency matrix, or the connection matrix. Its development
requires a few comments.

• number of rows equal to the number of branches (arcs) and a
number of columns equal to the number of nodes.
• Element (k,j) of A is 1 if the kth branch begins at node j, -1 if the kth
branch terminates at node j, and 0 otherwise.
• A branch is said to “begin” at node j if the power flowing across
branch k is defined positive for a direction from node j to the other
node.
• A branch is said to “terminate” at node j if the power flowing across
branch k is defined positive for a direction to node j from the other
node.
• Note that matrix A is of dimension M x N-1, i.e., it has only N-1
columns. This is because we do not form a column with the reference
bus, in order to conform to the vector θ, which is of dimension (N-1) x
1. This works because the angle being excluded, θ1, is zero.

  • 18. Power system representation Forming the Y-Bus: 1. The matrix is symmetric, i.e., Yij=Yji. 2. A diagonal element Yii is obtained as the sum of admittances for all branches connected to bus i (yik is non-zero only when there exists a physical connection between buses i and k). 3. The off-diagonal elements are the negative of the admittances connecting buses i and j, i.e., Yij=-yji. 18
  • 19. Power system representation From the previous work, you can derive the power flow equations. These are equations expressing the real and reactive power injections at each bus. If we had modeled branch resistance, we would obtain: 19          N j jkkjjkkjjkk N j jkkjjkkjjkk BGVVQ BGVVP 1 1 )cos()sin( )sin()cos(   This requires too much EE, so forget about them. Let’s make some assumptions instead. But first, what is θk and θj? where Yij=Gij+jBij.

Power system representation 20          N j jkkjjkkjjkk N j jkkjjkkjjkk BGVVQ BGVVP 1 1 )cos()sin( )sin()cos(   θk and θj are the angles of the voltage phasors at each bus. The angle captures the time difference when voltage phasors cross the zero- voltage axis. In the time domain simulation, the red curve crosses before the blue one by an amount of time Δt and so has an angle of θ=ωΔt where ω=2πf and f is frequency of oscillation, 60 Hz for power systems.
  • 21. Power system representation Simplifying assumptions: 1. No resistance: Yij=jBij 2. Angle differences across branches, are small: θi-θj: • Sin(θi-θj)= θi-θj • Cos(θi-θj)=1.0 3. All voltage magnitudes are 1.0 in the pu system. 21 This is the basis for the “DC power flow.”      N kj j jkkjk BP ,1 )(  Per-unit system: A system where all quantities are normalized to a consistent set of bases.

  • 30. How to solve power flow problems 30 Develop equations to compute branch flows:  )( ADPB where: • PB is the vector of branch flows. It has dimension of M x 1. Branches are ordered arbitrarily, but whatever order is chosen must also be used in D and A. • θ is (as before) the vector of nodal phase angles for buses 2,…N • D is an M x M matrix having non-diagonal elements of zeros; the diagonal element in position row k, column k contains the negative of the susceptance of the kth branch. • A is the M x N-1 node-arc incidence matrix. It is also called the adjacency matrix, or the connection matrix. Its development requires a few comments.
  • 31. How to solve power flow problems 31 How to develop node-arc incidence matrix:  )( ADPB • number of rows equal to the number of branches (arcs) and a number of columns equal to the number of nodes. • Element (k,j) of A is 1 if the kth branch begins at node j, -1 if the kth branch terminates at node j, and 0 otherwise. • A branch is said to “begin” at node j if the power flowing across branch k is defined positive for a direction from node j to the other node. • A branch is said to “terminate” at node j if the power flowing across branch k is defined positive for a direction to node j from the other node. • Note that matrix A is of dimension M x N-1, i.e., it has only N-1 columns. This is because we do not form a column with the reference bus, in order to conform to the vector θ, which is of dimension (N-1) x 1. This works because the angle being excluded, θ1, is zero.
