G-S voltage and power flow, 2-bus
Short answer
Net bus 2 injection is –0.5 + j0 pu. Gauss-Seidel converges to V2 = 0.9115∠–24.29° pu. Power flow from bus 1 to 2: S12 = 0.500 + j0.226 pu.
Using G-S load flow analysis, compute the voltage at bus 2 of figure shown below if V1 = 1∠0° pu. Find also power flow between bus 1 and 2. (all values are in pu). [Figure: bus 1 with source V1 and load Sd1; line Z = j0.75 between buses 1 and 2; bus 2 with load Sd2 = 0.5 + j1.0 and injection S2 = j1.0 (shunt capacitor)]
Bus 1 is the slack bus (). At bus 2 the net injected power is the capacitor injection minus the load:
So bus 2 is a PQ bus with , . The load at bus 1 does not affect .

Gauss-Seidel equation for bus 2
Iteration 1 (flat start ):
Iteration 2:
Continuing until the change is below pu:
| Iteration | (rectangular) | (polar) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1.0000 - j0.3750 | |
| 2 | 0.8767 - j0.3288 | |
| 3 | 0.8594 - j0.3750 | |
| 4 | 0.8400 - j0.3666 | |
| 5 | 0.8364 - j0.3750 | |
| 6 | 0.8326 - j0.3733 | |
| ... | ... | ... |
| 10 | 0.8308 - j0.3749 | |
| 11 | 0.8308 - j0.3750 |
Check (exact solution): with and a lossless line, and , so , giving and pu, which matches.
Power flow between buses 1 and 2
Line loss pu (reactive only, as the line has no resistance).
Answer: pu; power sent from bus 1 to bus 2 is pu, and bus 2 receives pu real power with zero reactive power.
