Correct Y11=4−j12 pu. G-S: after iteration 1 QG2=0.2 pu (within limits); after iteration 2 QG2=0.0829 pu violates lower limit, so QG2 fixed at 0.1 pu and bus 2 treated as PQ. Voltages after two iterations: V2=0.9997∠2.2359°, V3=0.9860∠−1.0398° pu.
The single line diagram of a power system network is shown in figure below. The Ybus of the system is Ybus = [4−j2 −2+j6 −2+j6; −2+j6 4−j12 −2+j6; −2+j6 −2+j6 4−j12] (element (1,1) printed as 4−j2). [Figure: line 1-2 is 100 km, line 2-3 is 200 km, line 1-3 is 400 km] If the power and bus voltages with different buses are as follows:

Assume limit on Qgen of 0.1 ≤ Qgen ≤ 0.4. Carry out the load flow analysis (only two iterations starting from assumptions of unknown voltage magnitudes as 1 p.u. and phase angles zero degree) using G-S to compute the unknown parameters in above table. Also compute the network real and reactive power losses.
The (1,1) element printed as 4−j2 is a misprint: each row of this Ybus must sum to zero (no shunt elements), so Y11=4−j12 pu is used. Line lengths are not needed because Ybus is given.

Limits: 0.1≤QG2≤0.4 pu, and Q2=QG2−QL2=QG2−0.5. Start: V2(0)=1∠0∘, V3(0)=1∠0∘.
QG2=Q2+QL2=0.2000 pu lies within 0.10≤QG2≤0.40, so bus 2 remains a PV bus.

QG2=Q2+QL2=0.0829 pu violates the limit 0.10≤QG2≤0.40. So QG2 is fixed at 0.10 pu, i.e. Q2=0.10−0.50=−0.4000 pu, and bus 2 is treated as a PQ bus in this iteration (its voltage magnitude is not reset).
