| Abstract |
For a distribution power system, the load connected to a load point is represented by kVA or P+jQ form in general. The so-called two-bus V-P formula(=Voltage-Power formula) composed of bus voltages and load power P,Q and a calculation example for load voltages in a distribution line with two P-Q load points have been presented in recent publications. While the result by conventional ‘Equivalent resistance method’ is approximate, the calculation using V-P formula has yielded an exact solution. However, the original V-P formula that includes the power line loss makes the equation much complicated to obtain solutions using a scientific calculator. This paper presents a new voltage calculation using the simplified V-P formula in which the line power loss is eliminated for calculation simplicity, and illustrates an example calculation for a distribution line with two P-Q load points to compare with existing methods. Calculation result by the proposed simplified V-P formula has shown an acceptable error rate for using in the industrial fields. |
