Abstract :
This paper presents a detailed formulation and implementation of a fast program for power system available transfer capability (ATC) calculations. The formulation is based on the linear incremental power flow to account for the line flow thermal loading effects. An efficient linear ATC implementation enhances speed in processing a large number of contingencies to determine ATC for each specified transfer. Test and performance results for practical power system models are presented
