Network Topology Based Back/Forward Sweeping for Load Flow of Radial Distribution Systems

Soumitri Jena, Abhisek Mishra, Vivek Rastogi

This paper presents a simple network topology based back/forward sweeping method for radial distribution systems. This method uses networktopology based matrices and KCL , KVL based equations. The data are stored in matrix form, then the memory requirement is very less.The current and voltage values have been updated in two subsequent sweeps (Backward and Forward). The requirement of sequential branch numbering has been averted. This method has been tested to IEEE 33 and 69 test systems and time required and accuracy has been found satisfying.
