Abstract: Generally the loads connected to the power system are inductive in nature which consumes reactive power. Power flow analysis is used to find bus voltage, real and reactive power flow across each bus. Optimal power flow analysis is used to reduce a system real and reactive power loss which in turn minimizes the fuel cost of the system. This paper compares load flow analysis and optimal powe flow analysis for IEEE-13 bus system using etap software.
Keywords: Real Power, Reactive Power, Optimal Power Flow, Etap.
Scope of the Article: Low-power design
