Laboratory 1

Using the 3-bus network examples worked in class to solve for the loadflow
specified parameters given the Gauss-Seidel and Newton-Raphson methods,
demonstrate the distinctions amongst the Gauss-Seidel, Newton-Raphson
and fast decoupled methods using any available loadflow package to solve for
those aforementioned 3-bus networks. In addition, use the 26-bus network
provided in Fig.1 to also demonstrate the above mentioned distinctions. The
corresponding data for the 26-bus network is shown is tables 1, 2, 3 and 4.
