  • Abstract
    It is shown how hybrid computers formed from special- purpose analog modules and process-control- type digital computers can be used to solve power system load flows more rapidly than by digital computation alone. For a 181-bus system, a particular hybrid computer has been built that requires about 20 seconds for each solution as compared with 30 minutes for an all-digital solution with the same computer.
