Dear Ali

I have DC load flow in GAMS software. Is it helpful to you?

Dear Farhad,

Thanks a lot. I have it. I need backward-forward load flow.

Dear Ali

I think  that backward-forward load flow can not applied in GAMS.

For this purpose, you can use AC load flow by active and reactive power balance equations for each bus in order to aplply the load flow.

Best regards,

Sayyad

Dear Sayyad,

Thanks a lot for your answer. I have already applied the Newton-Raphson load flow to the problem, but due to its complexity and high computational burden, I have not got the desired solutions with an accptable solution time. However, I think the backward-forward load flow can be implemented in GAMS.

Why do you think that it is not possible?

Regards,

Ali

Dear Ali

I suggest that instead of implementation backward-forward load flow in GAMS, you can link the GAMS with Matlab. 

sincerely,

Farhad

Dear Farhad,

That would be good solution. I have already thought of that, but in this special case I prefer to implement the whole model in GAMS.

Regards

backward-forward is a technique for satisfying the constraints. GAMS just takes the constraints and solves them. 

I can give you an example to make it clear. Suppose you do have MATPOWER package and can solve the power flow problem. Will you use genetic algorithm to solve the same problem ??

Dear Alireza,

Thanks a lot for your help. You are right

Dear Arash,

I have three versions. However, if you have its associated reference, as well, I would appreciate that

Dear Ali

Hi I have the same problem, Ali you can help me please
