Abstract :
The Han-Powell algorithm has proved to be extremely fast and robust for small optimum power flow problems (of the order of 100 buses). However, it balks at full size problems (of the order of 1000 buses). This paper develops a class of decompositions to break large problems down to sizes the Han-Powell algorithm can comfortably tackle. From this class we select one mem- ber-called the Super Hybrid-that seems to work best and describe it in detail.
