Hi, dear researchers, i want to know if it possible to run AC load flow methods such as ( Guasse sidel, newton raphson and fast decoupled) in DC systems in ETAP SOFTWARE .
My DC MICROGRID sahres DC power inside the network throu a commo DC BUS, which includes DC, AC sources and storage devices .
thank you for help
It seems possible to solve power flow in AC/DC micro grids with conventional power flow methods such as Newton Raphson (NR) method. I found couple of paper on AC/DC micro grid power flow using NR method with quit a good information. If you can incorporate the necessary changes mentioned in these papers, I think you can implement it in ETAP software. References are as follows

Dear Hartani mohamed amine L'Ambitieux
I agree completely with Mr. Kiran Kumar Challa...
Good luck
yes it is possible but the microgrid system have to be properly model so as to get more understanding about the power flow, then numerical method like Newton Raphson (NR) method can be applied. please review journals on this areas.
dear researchers Kiran Kumar Challa , Alex Aligbe and Omar Hazem MOHAMMED , thank you for your clarifications and assistance.
