Practical Application Of Digital Computer To Distribution Systems, Juan Vincente Saavedra Jan 1971

Practical Application Of Digital Computer To Distribution Systems, Juan Vincente Saavedra

Masters Theses

"Given a three phase ac power distribution system, a digital computer program is presented which determines a complete steady state solution for a given condition. The network data is processed by the computer into an admittance matrix, and these parameters are stored in a manner that enables the computer program to operate upon them as the coefficient of a simultaneous set of nonlinear equations. This set of equations are solved by the Gauss-Seidel Iterative Process improved by a modification of the relaxation method. Practical experience with the distribution system of the Davenport, Iowa, plant of the Aluminum Company of America …
