Abstract :
This paper proposes a new method for tracing AC power flows. By considering simultaneously mutual coupling of active power and reactive power, the complex power flow graph can be equivalently represented as a weighted directed flow graph. The graph theory is employed to solve the power flow tracing problem. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method
