Abstract
A method of enhanced backward/forward sweep based power flow analysis is described. The method can include performing a backward sweep to determine first branch currents of a radial distribution network based on nodal voltages determined at a last iteration. The radial distribution network can include nodes and branches that are sequentially numbered and belong to different layers. A forward sweep is determined to determine first nodal voltages of the radial distribution network based on the first branch currents. Second branch currents of the radial distribution network are determined based on the first nodal voltages. The second branch current of the respective node is a sum of a nodal injection current of the respective node that is updated based on the first nodal voltage of the respective node, and if available, the first branch currents of branches emanating from the respective node.
