Abstract

Although the Load Flow (LF) analysis of pure AC power systems is separately solved by both the numerical analysis methods and the heuristic methods, the load flow of integrated AC/DC power systems only has been implementing by numerical methods so far. There are many methods to implement load flow analysis of integrated AC/DC power systems in literature. Examples of these methods can be given as Newton-Raphson, Fast Decoupled and Broyden. In this paper, the sequential load flow analysis of AC/DC system is implemented by using Genetic Algorithm. The proposed method is tested on IEEE 9-bus test system. In this study, a heuristic method is used for load flow analysis of the integrated AC/DC power systems for the first time.
