Load Flow Study of a Radial Distribution Network

The paper presents the simple method for finding the load flow solution of a radial distribution network using the Kirchoff's current and Kirchoff's voltage law. The method is tested on four test cases: 16-node, 33-node, 69-node and 117-node network. Comparing to the existing methods, the memory space requirement is very small and time required for the CPU execution is also lower. Result shows that the proposed method is very efficient and competitive with the existing methods.
