Abstract

In this chapter a new technique is proposed for solving some special cases of power networks. In practical power systems injected active powers act as constant-power sources, because of the fact that they are independently controlled by turbine governors. Here lies the contrast with the conventional stereotype of constant voltage/current type sources. Superposition of powers in subsystems, each with one power source, constitutes the key step our method.

… fundamental concept of node in graph theory is not really as fundamental in network theory and in fact every occurrence of the word ‘node’ can be replaced by ‘port’.
