Abstract :
A modular harmonic power flow (MHPF) program has been developed for the calculation of the periodic steady state of a three-phase power system. Details of implementation are presented which further improve the efficiency of the program. The savings are achieved mainly in the time-domain computation of the incremental admittance matrix, for time-varying components and also by often reusing the same matrix. Test results are presented to demonstrate the efficiency of the program
