Abstract:
Load flow analysis is one of the most commonly used methods for the designing and planning of a power system and also for identifying the faults in a power system. The importance of load flow analysis has made it a field of great research interest. The power system of IUT is currently facing some severe problems and if these issues are not resolved immediately there might be some serious consequences. In order to maintain a healthy power system, the buses must be prevented from being overloaded and faulty equipment must be replaced regularly. So our thesis deals with these problems of IUT and we have tried to solve them by applying load flow analysis. Our objective is to identify the various problems in a power system and proposing solutions to these problems. We achieved this by collecting necessary data from the substation and different buildings of IUT and Implementing these readings on a software named ETAP. Using the results of the simulation, we have proposed solutions with an estimated cost and timeframe. In the following chapters the above mentioned things are discussed elaborately
