Respected Ray sir,i ask the question in detail.i want to determine ATC considering line outage and want to find ACPTDF considering line outage.the steps involved in determining AC line outage distribution factors are(1)execute load flow(2) for simulation of line outage (say line k which is connected between bus r and s), we make STATUS of line k as zero, which will change the elements of Ybus. but according to theory, in order to retain original Ybus, a line outage is simulated by considering two fictitious generators connected at buses r and s whose injected powers are equal and opposite. thus net power flow in the line becomes zero.also a fictitious line is connected between bus r and s whose parameters are same as that of original line k. As a result Ybus remains unaffected. so my question is : Why we are interested in maintaining same Ybus? is there any computational advantage? Because if we just make status zero, then it will make some entries of Ybus zero, which will on the contrary , reduce computational burden. thank you --- On Fri, 3/2/12, Ray Zimmerman <[email protected]> wrote:

There is less computation involved in calculating the PTDF for a system with a line out than for the same system with the line in service (i.e. one row becomes all zeros and does not need to be computed). If that doesn't answer your question, you'll have to try rephrasing it. -- Ray ZimmermanSenior Research Associate419A Warren Hall, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY 14853phone: (607) 255-9645 On Mar 2, 2012, at 1:32 AM, jigna pandya wrote: Respected Ray sir,Does the outage simulation of a line produce any computational burden in calculating PTDF?thanks
