Abstract :
Optimal load flow normally considers active and reactive power loads as independent of the voltage level. The exponential form of a static load model relating the active and reactive power components to the busbar voltage, is considered and the effects of incorporating this load model in the optimal load flow solution of several test systems are studied. The effects of modelling active and reactive powers are considered separately as well as when taken together. The results are compared with the respective standard optimal load flow solutions for a number of standard test systems
