Question:

Usually in power flow studies the load is treated as being independent of the bus voltage. That is, a constant power model is used. However, in reality the load usually has some voltage dependence, so that decreasing the feeder voltage (such as for conversation voltage reduction) will result in less power consumption, at least temporarily. Open PowerWorld Simulator case Problem 14_18, which contains the Figure 14.22 system except the load model is set so \(50 \%\) of the load is modeled as constant power, and \(50 \%\) of the load is modeled as constant impedance (i.e., the load varies with the square of the bus voltage magnitude). By adjusting the tap positions for the two substation transformers and the capacitor banks, determine the operating configuration that minimizes the total load plus losses (shown on the display), with the constraint that all bus voltage must be at least 0.97 per unit.
