The square matrix J is the Jacobian matrix of f(x), whose (i,k)-th element is
defined as cfi/cxk.
To use the above algorithm to solve load-flow, it is necessary to write the
equations defining the load flow problem as a set F(x) = O equations. The most
convenient and most widely used form is the polar power-mismatch
formulation, equations (2.17) and (2.18). The equations become as follows:

Flow diagram for a load-flow solution by Newton-Raphson method.
The iterative process of the Newton-Raphson method, as applied to the
load-flow solution, can be summarised as shown in the flow diagram.
The main advantage of the Newton-Raphson method is its quadratic rate of
convergence, which is faster than that of any other method. It is very reliable
and least sensitive to factors causing poor convergence, such as choice of slack
node or series capacitors. Both polar or rectangular formulation can be used, but
in order to use the Newton method the equations must be separated into real
and imaginary set. Generally a satisfactorily accurate solution may be obtained
in 5 to 6 iterations.
The main disadvantage of the method is the necessity to formulate and invert
the Jacobian matrix at each iteration. However, since the structure of the

Jacobian matrix has identical sparsity content as the Y-matrix, sparsity
techniques can be used instead of inversions. This has the advantage of
requiring only one ordering sequence and since the actual elimination and
solution is relatively less time consuming, the method presents no problem in
solution time or storage space. Another disadvantage of the Newton method is
that it is applicable only to convex functions and will converge to the nearest
solution from the initial value. It is a well-known fact that the load-flow problem
has theoretically twice as many possible solutions as there are number of nodes.
In practice the correct engineering solution is well separated from the others
and the right solution is always obtained or the solution diverges.
3.4 Fast Decoupled Newton-Raphson Method
Since the Newton method is an approximate method, alternative approximations
are possible to even further decrease the time and storage.
The basic equations of the Newton method are derived from Taylor's series
expansion and omitting second and higher order terms. The corrections at each
iteration are therefore approximations but the value of the function is calculated
exactly at each iteration, therefore the final solution can be obtained to any
desired accuracy by continuing the iterative process and is not dependent on the
accuracy of the correction itself.
This simple fact implies alternative approximation to the derivative terms of the
Jacobian matrix. A simple test of solving, say a quadratic equation by the Newton
method, can soon show that a good convergence can still be obtained, even is the
derivative is substituted by an arbitrary constant number. Of course the number
must be so chosen that the resulting equations retain the convergence property.
Since the load-flow problem is only mildly non-linear and well understood by
engineers, the physical property of the problem can be exploited to great
advantage.
3.4.1 Decoupling Characteristics
An inherent characteristic of any practical power system is the close dependence
of active power flows on bus voltage angle and the reactive power flow on bus
voltage magnitude. This characteristic may be shown from the following
consideration of a two-node system.

It can be seen from the phasor diagram that
(a) Change of AP in P changes the angle by Au and has a small effect on change in
voltage magnitude (AV ~ O)
(b) Change of AQ in Q changes the voltage magnitude by QV and has a small
effect on change in angle (Au ~ O)
Algebraically the above approximate relation may be stated as:
u A = A H P (4.1)
V L Q A = A (4.2)
Generalising the decoupling phenomena to a multi-busbar system, the sub-
matrices N and J in equation (5.11) can be neglected resulting in

The obvious procedure is to perform alternate iterations of the two equations,
that is solving separately the P-u and Q-V problems with 4:1 saving on storage of
the Jacobian matrix. Such an approximation results in more iterations, but in
practice is more than compensated for by saving in inversion time and slightly
shorter individual iteration time.
3.4.2 Further Approximations
Based on similar assumptions as before, further approximations in the
decoupled Jacobian matrix (4.3) can be made:

The matrix B' and B" is the negative of the imaginary part of the nodal

Further improvements in convergence can be obtained by making the following
simplification
(a) Omit from B' elements, which affect changes in AQ, for example shunt
reactors, shunt capacitors and off-nominal in-phase transformer taps.
(b) Omit from B" phase-shifters which affect changes in AP
3.4.3 Iterative Scheme
With the assumptions made, the B' and B" matrices result in being real,
symmetrical, sparse and constant since they contain only network admittances.
They represent constant approximation to the variable Jacobian matrix and
therefore need to be inverted, or factorised if sparsity techniques are used, once
only for the whole solution process.
There are many ways of further approximating the B' and B" matrices and
solving the resulting equations. From practical experience the best way is as
summarised in the flow diagram.
Although approximate Jacobian equation has been used, the mismatch equations
are exact. Therefore the solution obtained is as accurate as that given by the

Newton-Raphson method. The only difference is that in the decoupled load-flow
the gradient is constant.
The constant slope has a geometric convergence rate which is slower than the
quadratic rate of the Newton-Raphson method. Typically convergence can be
obtained in 6 to 8 iterations. The slower convergence rate is more than
compensated for by the speed of calculations. The solution time is
approximately linear with the system size.
