Determination of Power Transfer Capability by a Bisection-Like Algorithm via Power-Flow Solutions

The objective of this study is to present an algorithm that can determine power transfer capability of transmission lines via power-flow solutions. The calculation of transfer capability is carried out by obtaining power flows for various scenarios of operation under various amounts of power transfer. This paper deals with the bisection-like algorithm to compute transfer capability. The main motivation in this work results from the need to develop an efficient algorithm that can calculate maximum power transfer between selected buses and perform the numerical simulations for corresponding power-flow solutions. The accompanying program is easily expandable with new applications when necessary.
