The above equation is nonlinear in terms of the variables Vi, i=1, …,n. A closed form Using general notation, the iteration of equation (4.1-4) can be cast
solution is impossible for the above power flow formulation and therefore an iterative into the general form of
scheme will be used. v(k) = f (v (k-1)) (4.1-5)
The idea of the proposed iterative method is simple. An initial guess: Here f =(f1, f2, …, fn) represents a function of multiple variables in Cn, and
v(0) = (V1(0),…,Vn(0)) will be used to compute the right hand side (RHS) of Eq. (4.1-3) v = (V1, V2,…,Vn) .
to obtain the next guess of v(1). The RHS will be computed again based on the new vector
v(1) to get v(2) and this process is repeated.

shown in Fig. 4.2.1-1. The ∆ connected loads can be taken care of by
a well-known transformation. For brevity, the three-phase currents will be denoted by iiabc = [Iia Iib Iic]T.

As a result of Eq. (4.2.1-11), a simple model for the distribution line between bus i and bus
