ETAP Load Flow

The ETAP V&V process for the Load Flow program has over 1500 test case scenarios that are run
before each
ETAP release. The following case samples are from the Load Flow Solutions & Methods category.

Load Flow Comparison Case # 1

Comparison of ETAP Load Flow Results against a Published Textbook Example

Excerpts from Validation Cases and Comparison Results (TCS-LF-006)

Highlights
Comparison between ETAP Load Flow (LF) results against those published in the textbook
Computer
Aided Power System Operation and Analysis by R.N Dhar, page 89.
Comparison of results for the Newton Rhapson Method.
Comparison of results for the Accelerated Gauss Seidel Method.
Comparison of results for the Fast Decoupled Method.
Study includes generation, motor loads, transformers and cables.
Considers line impedance and admittance.
Comparisons are made against generation schedule, bus voltages and power flows in per-unit.
The difference in the results is less than 1% for all bus voltages and power flows.
System Description
This is a six-bus system that is composed of lines, cables, transformers, generators and utility. The
line
impedance and charging effects are considered. The schedule of generation and loading for each bus
were taken
as described in Table 6.2 of the published example.
